And with no circuses anymore, it's hard to find an orphan with the skill set you want.

Me too! Except I tried to get an orphan boy to live with me and join my war on crime, but it turns out there’s a lot of paperwork! Even if you don’t want to adopt him you still have to check off “ward.”

Honestly if i were a Tax paying member of Gotham i would be pissed and demanding full defunding of GPD for that energy wasting eyesore.

Yeah, but then you get the best Batman, obviously.

Yeah the video covers why that is.  A light source doesn’t direct the light properly.  You need a lens to align the light and then you need to position the imagine properly.  Basically the same way they make projectors 

I tried to make one with a flashlight and a plastic bat when I was 8 because who didn’t?

I know they didn’t have cell phones in the ‘30s, but couldn’t he have borrowed a couple of two-way wrist radios from Dick Tracy? (Nope, turns out those weren’t “invented” until 1946. Thanks, Google.)

Thanks. That’s pretty lo-tech and, of course, very sexy.

He traces the light beam to its origin, which is a roof where Commissioner Gordon is waiting, and he explains the problem to Batman

I never understood what Wayne does after seeing the bat signal (is he always looking up at the sky?). Does he call the police dept. with a burner phone to find out where the problem is? I have creepy neighbors who listen to police scanners all day and night. Surely Batman has the smarts and the money to design a call…

> So the Government can burn that money under the auspice of “Common Good”, and yet that money also helped pay for Pfizer to run commercials during the NCAA tourney and sponsor the freakin’ Oscars?

Membership for living in this country requires everyone to pay an amount to keep a certain standard of living. Do you like roads? Living in an area of the country where there are too many dirt roads, I can tell you that is not a solution, and even then they need upkeep.

Right?

same, I thought it was attached to the land and just happened to float but clearly that’s not the case. just because it’s not designed to go very fast or go out to sea doesn’t disqualify it as a boat just like a barge is still a boat.

Sounds good to me.

Me too - I was going to say... ehhh... this is a stretch.

thank you very much for leading me to this

Fab could actually sing, though.

but those dudes were a total front! this guy could actually play, that’s what makes it so wild/sad!

Forever his name shall be tarnished
