I don't mind being categorized or criticized. What bothers me is mysoginy; my point being that 'geeks' and 'nerds' engage in that kind of behavior as much as any other guys, but then think they don't because of their self-perception as persecuted. It's another example of what the author was illustrating.

Why is it so hard to live in a mode where you're like, hey, I'm going to be nice to people and treat them with respect?
To put this another way, some people hate sports. Some of the people who hate sports are men. Some of the men who hate sports love comics. Some of the men who hate sports that love comics love…
Golden Age Superman didn't seem bothered as much by these kinds of questions.
Your son is a dipshit.
Your dipshit son shouldn't be in jail for being a dipshit.
If I knew/know that service staff gets a decent wage, I'm ok with no tipping.
Why? Did yours pee on your bed or something?
I have a google game console. It's called an Ouya.
A few more off the top of my head, from DC TAS universe.
So, Superman and team's plan was to send the Kryptonian criminals back to the Phantom Zone. They needed to shoot Superman's baby rocket at the criminals ship to activate the Phantom Zone.
Well, they all 'count', since every Superman story is technically an imaginary one. There's more examples; the list isn't comprehensive by a stretch. Like, I left out, "Whatever Happened to the Man from Tomorrow?" Also didn't include Superman TAS, Justice League, or Justice League Unlimited. There's also a lot more…
Off the top of my head, times Superman has killed people ... not comprehensive by a stretch.

I wonder if this applies to 360 apps as well. Like, there was an emphasis on being able to plug a cable box into the new Xbox One.
That's cool, but what if you want online video only? A new platform, and new methods for ingesting video, implies new video apps (and assuming that the new architecture would support that).…
A beautiful piece and fitting tribute.
The real-world politics of this story are left far too vague, when they're actually well documented. This is what happens when you have policies that (1) aren't focused on Women's Health and (2) managed by 'small government' types across the board.
THIS IS HOW JOSHUA AND THE WOPR WERE BORN! DO NOT PLAY GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR WAR WITH THIS! IF YOU DO MAKE SURE TO PLAY TIC TAC TOE WITH IT!
Some people skilled with computers and investigation are helping an apparently understaffed police force track down some rapists. Good.
What the fuck is wrong with people?
It should lead to compromise. Currently it's leading to an impasse; I think it's a characteristic of our times more than anything. In periods of income inequality, partisanship rises, almost inverse to the level of income inequality present in society. Like, the greater the income inequality that exists, the more…
I'm excited about this, it looks fun. Kimd of wish the actual game had more of this spirit in it.
I think the 'problem' with Aquaman comes down to 2 things. I don't think any writers get the physicality of an outdoor, water sports guy. Have you ever seen video of Laird Hamilton surfing giant waves? That's the kind of thing Aquaman can do in his sleep. The other aspect is the swashbuckling a physical character like…
