August 8, 2013 4:00 pm I love you, Jeff. The thing, though, is that I'm wondering how he shaves with steel ha*ducks flying rotten vegetables* OK OK, I'LL STOP!

August 7, 2013 11:48 am Such a shame...that Adventure Comics Blackest Night tie-in was the PERFECT ending to Superboy-Prime. Luckily, I've only seen him in Infinite Crisis, Sinestro Corps War and Legion Of 3 Worlds prior to reading that, so I thought that it was a smart reflection of the character and a perfect denouement. His later appearance in Krul's Teen Titans is utterly baffling, as it pretty much ignored everything that happened in the character's recent appearance.

August 6, 2013 10:09 am I guess properly putting a g at the end of 'talking' doesn't matter either? I guess you really wanted to convince everyone you were 2 kool 4 skool. I'll tell you what...if you produce the official statistical study that corroborates your 10% number, then I will happily concede. I normally prefer my non-engineering statistical studies from the US Bureau Of Labor Statistics, but I think I can settle for any government study on this matter. That way, it won't seem that the 10% you gave us doesn't seem like something you pulled out of your ass.

August 5, 2013 8:00 pm It's not what they call soup, but a kind of soup that has the broth splashed on at the end, as opposed to having the ingredients cooked in the broth.

August 5, 2013 7:32 pm Listen, I think we can all agree that there is nothing wrong with porn. However, Jim makes a good point that people definitely resonate with. When a lot of people think of porn, they think of a man slipping his COMMENT MODERATED into a woman, and many other perverse things done with a COMMENT MODERATED. So yeah, of course some people don't want to see the two combined. Porn is great, displaying your geek stuff is great, but crossing those streams can be weird. It's kind of like that problem where female characters are drawn erotically in mainstream superhero books when the context doesn't call for it. There's nothing wrong with the erotic, but when you mix it in with something that has nothing to do with the erotic, it just seems awkward. Let me come back to 'bukkake'. If you grew up only knowing the sexual meaning of the word and then tried to appropriate to its original culinary meaning, wouldn't you feel weird using it for that meaning? Maybe over time you can deprogram yourself to feel comfortable using it in the way that's new to you, but the original-to-you meaning will always linger.

August 5, 2013 6:50 pm No one says 'shelf porn'!...er...no one outside of the internet uses the phrase 'shelf porn'!...er...no one outside of the internet who doesn't write stuff on the internet uses the phrase 'shelf porn'!...er...no one outside of the internet who doesn't write stuff on the internet who are REAL comic fans uses the phrase 'shelf porn'!...er...no one outside of the internet who doesn't write stuff on the internet who are REAL comic fans and have size 12 shoes uses the phrase 'shelf porn'! Check AND mate!!!

August 5, 2013 4:10 pm I don't know why the link was moderated...it just lead to a picture of two girls with a tube of Japanese mayo right as they were about to COMMENT MODERATED.

August 5, 2013 3:58 pm But yeah, I love that languages evolve, but I can't deny that there are some instances that are just outright silly. Like, if you mention "food porn", my mind immediately goes to this: LINK MODERATED.

August 5, 2013 3:39 pm Congratulations, you bastard...you've invented Picard Porn. I will never forgive you.
