The Official DC Stupid Question Thread....

[WompuM]

I didn't go to 4 years of evil medical school to be called Mr. Evil.

Pff, Doom has Doombots made to look like other people for appearance's sake who help him run things.

Seriously, though, I doubt there's any kind of university system in Latveria. Certainly nothing that could grant a doctoral degree in anything. Doom himself was educated elsewhere, so if he does have any cabinet members and ministers and such, he probably just hand-picks the most promising individuals from the lower-level education system within Latveria and sends them off to universities elsewhere with strong warnings to disbelieve all of the other countries' lies about him and their beloved homeland, then installs them when they come back with a working knowledge of politics and administration.

Either that or he's got some sorta knowledge installer machine like on the Venture brothers.

U.S.A. - training the world's terrorists.

Also, that's a hell of a run-on sentence.

Didn't I read something on here about Corp being an English major?

 

[CLARKY]

I have a silly question : could someone tell me, please, where the h*ll is this "Green Arrow & Black Canary" thread ? I can't find it.

 

[yenaled]

Winick retconed it.

Yep, which is why I know that that's not a run-on sentence. A run-on sentence implies that it's grammatically incorrect: two or more independent clauses joined without appropriate conjunctions or punctuation. My sentence is long, but it makes sense so it's not a run-on.

This has been your English lesson of the day.

Yet, you forgot the comma for the natural pause between sense and so there. For shame Corpy, for shame.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

A comma's not absolutely necessary there and one school of thought in Modern English grammar stresses the use of as few commas as possible to keep sentences clutter-free.

But you did forget the comma right before my name in that last sentence. Direct address, buddy. Direct address.

I've never claimed to be an English major, Buddy. I'm a psych major.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

You capitalized "buddy" for no apparent reason there, chief.

 

[Green Lantern]

It's your new nickname, Buddy. MLA style is inferior to APA style

 

[TheCorpulent1]

My style is better than both of them put together, sport.

 

[Green Lantern]

Your style is like that of a blind wrestler.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yes: awesome. It's ten times more awesome to be suplexed by a blind guy than by any normal wrestler.

I was thinking fashion style, not wrestling style You know, kind of like yellow Daredevil.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Hey, Daredevil's yellow costume was the shiznit, son.

 

[Scarecrow_King]

if I ever got my tookahs handed to me by a blind man, i wouldn't even be angry. I would shake his hand.

Thank you. I meant to do that.

Okay, how about his armored look from the 1990s? Defend THAT one.

As a matter of fact, excessive use of commas is often a sign of psychosis.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Lies, those are all lies, there's no truth, at all, to, what, you're, s,a,y,i,n,g!!!!!11 ,,

I... I can't.

It was drawn by Scott McDaniel, though, so at least DD had some cool action scenes in it.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

What is this "Superman: World of New Krypton" business?

 

[Hush]

Is the story by Darwyn Cooke and Tim Sale, Superman: Kryptonite, worth the purchase?
