"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I object to that—she should be able to beat him via lifelong combat training and the use of magical weapons, but not his equal in terms of raw power.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm noticing their relative strengths vary per episode. It's a little confusing.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

That's super heroes as a genre. Superman will always be as strong as the plot demands and The Flash will always be as fast as the same.

I agree that it's frustrating, though.

I want to say that when they de-nerf Superman starting in season 2, he's clearly stronger than Diana. But in season 1 they're both all over the place.

But Superman generally takes the role of Worf in this series. He constantly gets clobbered to show how tough the bad guy is. (And because he can have a building dropped on him and get back up.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Rick and Morty sell out.

Did anybody in corporate actually watch the show?

It's like somebody at Kellogg's decided to put out Nihilism Flakes.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Probably when they were very stoned.

Weirdly, I can see Carl's Jr. coming up with n Ultimate Despair burger.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I predict I will not remember enough to have any idea what is going on when it airs.
