How's that working out for you...being clever?
A Posting in response to Marissa's question in her comment on my last blog: No I do not love the show smallville. I have never seen it. My cousin Stephen (www.theatremarine.blogspot.com) worships the show, however, and gives me a bunch of bunk about how it is great and how I suck for having not seen it yet. He then (apparently while on acid or some other hallucinagen) suggested on his blog that smallville had inspired him to understand that superman was cooler than Spider Man. Apparently the amazing, gigantic nerd inside me I try to keep hidden deep within the walls of my uber-James-Dean-ness still controls my most basic urges (despite the leaps and bounds I've made since middle school) and so I found myself, through no will of my own, furiously leaping to Spider Man's defense (like he needs help. ha!) on Stephen's blog while at the same time lambasting superman for his inherent lameness (see my comment on his blog. it's fun if you're a geek).
For good measure I placed the last post on this blog just for him, to let him know that even if I did watch smallville one day, a then even if I not just liked, but LOVED it, I would never ever EVER admit as much. This is just to piss him off. I like pissing people off sometimes.
...sometimes by doing subtle stuff like refusing to capitalize the names of their favorite things.

I would hardly call it worship.
By the way, episode 4.02 airs tonight featuring Michael Ironside - perhaps better known as the voice of Sam Fischer in the Splinter Cell video game series - as Lois Lane's father, General Sam Lane. And did you know that Michael Rosenbaum (Lex Luthor) does the voice of The Flash on the Justice League animated series?
Besides, I'm surprised spiderman (take that with extra lack-of-hyphen!) has time to do anything superheroic due to constantly drowning in bitchy angst. HA.
In conclusion, everyone sucks but me.
So I feel as if I am capable of understanding the apparent fanaticism with spider-man that runs through the core of Mr. Sloan. I also have seen an episode of Smallville, albeit only one, and can honestly say I DON'T understand the fanatacism of this seemingly run of the mill show. Ol' Clark is hot and all but so are many no talent ass clowns that get network deals (i.e. Ashton Kutcher, Pick your favorite Real World member, or everyone's favorite Joey Tribiani). Most glaring point of why I don't buy the whole superman thing: why keep a piece of kryptonite around if you know its gonna kill you in the wrong hands?
