No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Okay, that is hilarious!

Questioning continued in this vein for most of the afternoon, with senators on both sides of the aisle pressing Roberts to clarify his stance. "One of the most important responsibilities of a Chief Justice is adherence to existing precedence," Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kan.) reminded the nominee. "I therefore call your attention to The Dark Knight Returns -- a four-part, 1986 mini-series in which Batman defeats Superman in hand-to-hand combat -- and ask you: if Bruce Wayne can beat Superman in a fight, is it not self-evident that he could defeat a mere mutant with ease?"

Brownback remarks were later stricken from the record, however, after ranking Democratic member Sen. Patrick J. Leahy (D-Vt.) pointed out that The Dark Knight Returns is now considered to be an non-canonical "Elseworlds" story.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Thanks. Now I need a new pair of pants.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's pretty great. Thanks for the link.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Hmmm. Joss has made it to round three on "Battle of the Comic Book Writers. "Now he's up against Garth Ennis, which is gonna be some ehavy competition.

For all my devotion to Joss, I think I'd have to vote for Garth Ennis. Fuckin' Preacher rules!

I know. That's one of the TERRIBLY hard ones.

Love Joss, but he hasn't paid his comic book dues. Ennis all the way.

The REALLY hard one for me was last round. Ellis vs Morrisson. I voted Ellis. Also, Miller/Kirkman. Kirkman's too new, and didn't just have a critically acclaimed movie come out, or he would have done better.

Quite agree. Still, I feel a twinge of sadness when I see the writers I like get knocked off.

Holds head to forehead melodramatically.*

Ellis vs. Morrison was impossible. Between them, they wrote my two favorite comics of all time -- "Transmetropolitan" and "The Invisibles." I eventually went with Ellis, I think, but I changed my mind frequently.

Can't remember for sure, it was that close?

Changed my mind every few seconds. But Morrison won, and I'm OK with that.
