Freeze his account.

But wouldn't that be a net loss?

Yes, and quite literally, since if we did so, we'd lose his replies.

As an alternative, couldn't I just change his avatar to this for a week or so ?

Don't shave.

No, because it's patently impossible for dead creatures (like The Grim Squeaker) to experience dizziness.

Because it is a sin to sleep the day away (and I believe staying up late implies that you will sleep late).

Why do we say "Holy sh*t!" instead of "Unholy sh*t!" ... ?

Assuming Brad's post is a comment, not an answer:


If they did, they wouldn't be pirhanas, but Grendels
Their life cycle is similar to that of terrestrial frogs - the herbivorous samlon are in fact the juvenile form of the carnivorous Grendels. (...) And like many species of frogs, they are cannibalistic - if no other prey is present, they will eat their own young.
At some point in the recent past, most of the prey animals on the island were destroyed (...). Among the few surviving species on the island were the samlon, and thus the Grendels. Cannibalism became the rule instead of the exception. Only the fastest juvenile samlon survived predation by Grendel females to become adult Grendels themselves (...)
(...) Its cardiovascular system and musculature give it strength and stamina far beyond that of humans, and that is without its primary evolutionary advantage: A super-oxygenated blood supplement.
A grendel can, on demand, release a chemical supercharger into its blood that does to it what NOS does to internal combustion engines - enable short bursts of speed in excess of a hundred miles per hour. This is the primary trait makes the Grendels so dangerous - and the key to their destruction. The supercharger, when used, generates large amounts of waste-heat that warm up their bodies so rapidly they effectively "cook themselves" and will die after using it if they do not immediately return to the water to cool off.
Would you like to have "superblood", like Grendels?

No, because knowing me, the 'supercharger' quality of my blood would probably flash-fry both my mate, myself, and the woods in a 100 yard radius the first time I got frisky. At least as a human I can race to the shower and turn the knob if things get too heated. Barry Allen used to have a similar problem back in the golden age of DC Comics, but the Comics Code of the day wouldnt allow writers to tell the sordid tale.

Anyone care to speculate which other superheroes put their superpowers to off-color use ? *

Sounds like an idea for a new thread. Superman making love?

Personally, with those red undies worn outside his spandex, the red booties, and that flouncy cape, I've always found Superman to be a trifle too gay. We always called him "Superpants" in my old gaming group. The man needs a hetero fashion makeover in the worst way.

The real question is this: will MK ever be able to follow the format of this thread (re: Stupid Answer to prior stupid question + New Stupid Question) ?

So if we have "Superpants" (hoping there is no upgrade to a thong), what was Batman's moniker?

Batman was always 'batman' ... we just had a lot of fun with double entendres at his expense, mostly involving Robin or Cat Woman.

My question is what demented person came up with the idea of Spiderman ? I mean c'mon, an adolescent love-sick teenage geek shutterbug running around in multicolored long johns, squirting sticky stuff on bad people, and taking pictures of them ?

Ah, but some of them *can* fly ... although they lose that ability when they reach puberty, and switch to solid food.
