"That can be dangerous."

That is the funniest thing I've heard this century.

That would make a good Lounge T-shirt.

Next time, inform him that real supers are silver, not white, like this guy:



I know he looks superwhite (and incidentally, has calves that are so big he's obviously been cycling and eating lots of ice cream -- a coincidence? I think not!).

It's to prevent those uncomfortable situations that one can learn how to read the 'silver' on that page.

That will be very helpful next time I have to prove I am not a superhero.

Somehow, I don't think that would have dissuaded this fellow in the least. I got the impression that, to him, lucidity was not an especially valuable criterion for potential mates.

As I said, make sure he knows how to read first, or he may just go "large calves - check - superwhite - check - mean spirited look (when I mention the KKK) - check" and still think you're a superheroin.

Also make sure he knows what colour "silver" is, though there's no like-coloured bullet for that.

And just to derail the thread, some people in marketing have funny ideas about naming colours for their products:

And they have colours that would also appeal mainly to some people in the US:

Heh.

I suppose I would have been an "Icy White."

But have you ever felt white satin Balz™?

We had those when I was a kid.
Yes, I suppose I have.
For my money, the flashy, sequin-wrapped Balz™ were where it was at.

By the way, you'll have to change something not to be mistaken for a superhero(in). There is a superhero that is:

-superwhite (not silver)
-has impressive calves
-has bad eyesight (but has recently been seen wearing contact lenses)
-always invites people to drink.

He's called "bibendum" ("drinks must be had").

Those sequin-wrapped Balz™ make Abby wet.

Sometimes it amazes me that you can type after having dragged your knuckles on the ground all day.

...

That's kinda creepy, actually.
Your ears don't stick out that much, though.

heehee

Thanks, photoshopping elf...
