Amazing. I didn't listen to my dad until I turned 33.

Kudos to Stossel; unfortunately, his argument probably fell on deaf ears.

I've always thought of him more as the libertarian idealist, someone who believes a little _too_ much in capitalism because he's never personally had to do time on capitalism's seamy underside. A Midgar topsider, if you will.

For what it's worth, the priest in question, Father Leone, first appeared in SUPERMAN #204 back in June 2004, and was a recurring character in the comics for awhile.

(According to "The Essential Superman Encyclopedia.")

I didn't feel the priest bit In Superman was random, I think it served to show how genuine a person Clark was (he didn't lie to the priest) and how trusting people can be it's own reward (the priest not only not flipping the fuck out and turning Clark in, but carrying on with his job and giving him genuine advice).

Alicia Silverstone also had babies and didn't get plastic surgery. Women in general in hollywood tend to get burned through quicker. Hollywood is generally not a fan of good looking soccer-mom, all natural types. They want stunning, fake beauty like Megan Faux etc..

Eh, don't worry about it. Nobody uses rotary phones anymore, but they're still an ubiquitous sign for "phone" in visual cues. Same for the lightbulb. It's tradition among cartoonists to use the bulb-shaped lightbulb, so I doubt it's going anywhere.

I suffer from no fashion sense and laziness. Would you like to donate to my health care for both my life changing diseases? : P

All we do is coddle people in this country and tell them its not their fault. I am sick of it. We should issue Putin a hunting license every year and allow him to roam around the country hanging out the back of a Jeep wrangler, shirtless, taking out anyone he deems unfit. I trust his judgement.

That's because 30 years ago, a man named Norman Borlaug kicked off the Green Revolution.

35 years ago, they predicted we'd all be overpopulated to death by now. I'ma go make some more babies.

This makes me think of that scene in Anchorman where Ron Burgandy relates the name of San Diego to a whale's vagina or something.

Would you prefer this instead?

Wow. I don't usually go around saying thinks like "I'm offended", but yeah. I'm totally offended. I'm a Christian, and honestly I'm sick of everyone trying to turn their character into Jesus (LotR's Aragorn, Aslan from Narnia, etc.). I don't find it really insulting to Jesus as I do it's insulting to me. It's like if…

Seriously, Mace Windu was never a badass in the first place.

I don't like the new take on Khan. Old Khan was way scarier. New Khan doesn't have enough story, or background. Into Darkness was a let down too. For 80% of the movie I was like "I can't wait to buy this movie", then it ended and I was scratching my head asking my self, what the hell did I just watch?

Saving a cat is a very Superman thing to do. That's kind of the point of Superman. He's got incalculable power, sure, but at heart he's just a good guy trying to do the right thing for everyone.

Total badass until 1999.

Because of the "higher literary" comment.
