Nice comeback. I'm staggering from this blow. Anybody see the old 1960s Kirk Douglas movie "Failsafe?" Where they blew up New York to avoid retaliation for an accidental USSR strike? Watchmen was that, only with cheesy ripoffs of iconic characters. Being called an idiot by you is quite the compliment.
Hey, I specialize in stupid comments, Einstein. It's the self-important responses (usually devoid of a spellcheck) that makes this so much fun! Just put me on "ignore" and you'll be just fine.
comeback? did you insult me earlier in the thread? if you did i missed it. and if you didn't you're misusing the word comeback.
can't say i saw failsafe, so i don't know if the comparison is good or not. however, your statement that the characters are cheesy ripoffs is startling. they characters are nothing like those they are actually based on. rorschach is much more interesting, and much better loved than the question. night owl is a lot more realistic as the playboy superhero than blue beetle. doctor manhattan is the most realistic omnipotent hero ever. i think it's absurd to say they are cheesy ripoffs when most of them are better remembered and liked than the original characters.
also, you're a class act using the "i know you're dumb but what am i" defense. "being called an idiot by you is quite the compliment?" who am i, bizarro? do i simply speak opposites? or you under the assumption that only geniuses like yourself can recognize stupidity.
curley: man, that big dude from "Of mice and men," you're a genius!
big dude from "of mice and men": induditaly!
if you were truly that smart, you'd realize that i simply insult you so you can respond like that. i find it fun. if you truly that smart, you'd realize it
because i said so in the last thread we did this on.
so no, i won't put you on "ignore," because you're too much fun, in short. you make these things interesting. i might just start a "Jesus was a good dude" thread, or perhaps a "The Yankees have the most championships in baseball" thread, just so you can argue it.
