Huh. I would reverse those two personally. I suppose tastes and tolerances vary.

Daredevil had its issues but it wasn’t nearly as bad as some people made it out to be. No, it suffered because of association with this crapfest, much like how Spider-Man 3 retroactively made the first two movies crap.

“I Took A HyperPoop On The HyperLoop”

Idiot walking with face buried in smartphone crosses street without looking and gets hit by idiot driving with face buried in smartphone. Thus does the Great Wheel of Stupid turn.

I used to like to think, “Nobody could be that stupid”, but my forty-odd years dealing with this species has long since disabused me of that notion.

I try to remind bicyclists of the same thing. Often to no avail. Evolution in action, indeed.

Why did it work? (1) it was fun, and (2) the people who made it believed in their property.

Eddie would go!

Look, all I know is if they put in a character named “NetGear”, I’m out.

Somewhere in Hacker Valhalla, the Lone Gunmen facepalm in unison...

Of course, farmers ended up abandoning their crops, and that’s how we ended up with the Dust Bowl.

Well, they could always set up an offshoot out in California, call it the West Coast Avengers of Orange County.

Also, don’t look at what’s in that food they grew that you’re eating. Seriously, just don’t.

The last Gunstar, still patrolling the Frontier. He’s still out there, you know.

I had a perfect response to this, but some damn cat stole it.
