That athiest who appears to believe that because I am not atheist, I am either a gibbering moron or have never thought faith through
This one's a big pet peeve of mine. I'm *not* an atheist, but Dear GOD, really, people can not believe in something just as easily as they may believe in something that has them speaking tongues and drinking pseudo-blood.
*waves to Baptists*
The fliers are bs, but it's awesome you took a pen to them. Good job and feel better. You could be Power Boy's balls, and wouldn't *that* suck right now?

There are many who think that if people really thought things through those people would all come to the same single conclusion, the one they hold. These people are wrong, and I can say so because I know if everyone thought things through they'd agree with *me*. *laugh* Seriously, though, many people do think there's only one right answer and anyone who doesn't reach it is a moron who hasn't thought. And they *are* wrong on that.
The idea that you can't be a Deathstroke fan because you're 1) female and therefore 2) into romance and frills is merely an extended ad homonem argument (or, rather, ad feminam).
Finally amd most importantly, you are made of pure, shiny awesome. *squeezes you tightly*
See, I do think atheists and so forth are inaccurate; if I didn't think so, I would *be* atheist. I hold my belief because I think it's right, otherwise I'd believe something else.
But that's not the same thing as thinking they're wrong/'wrong,' nor is it insulting their intelligence. Because that's just Not Okay.
it could have been done better, because solving violence with violence doesn't help anything and she should have talked to him or some such
I suppose they also want Batman to start striking up conversations with unbalanced master criminals, now, to convince them with rhetoric of the error of their ways; no more punching for Hatter or Penguin! And I suppose Green Arrow should only use his trick arrows to get the attention of drug dealers before convincing them that playing the stock market is more profitable, and will bring in more babes, and also is totally street. By this logic the Green Lanterns should mostly only use their rings to effect space travel and facilitate translation so that interstellar invaders, slavers, mindless parasites, and so on, can be asked politely not to dawdle in a given Lantern's particular sector of space. Also Superman should be ashamed of himself for sneaking up on and punching some poor innocent asteroid (which didn't even see the Earth in its path) without even suggesting it could just move aside!
A-MEN. Unless someone *asks* for your views or in some way starts a dialogue? Just. Shut. Up.
This applies double to the street preachers who appear to have decided to flock here.
*arms your anger issues*
Punching the door would've hurt my knuckles. Scribbling was constructive. (Punching would've felt better.)
What does not make me at all happy is the fact that most of the reactions (and mostly from men, from what I've seen) seem to be about how it could have been done better, because solving violence with violence doesn't help anything and she should have talked to him or some such (the same stuff they talked about after Wonder Woman #6, where Diana beats some woman's abusive husband). Fuck you, morons. Just FUCK YOU!... She should've talked to him? What? Um, no, talking to the creepy creepy man who is *stalking you* and *hitting you* and saying that you can be perfect if you just let him *fix* you is what you do if you're trying to stall to keep him from *killing* you

Heh. *waves to Pentecostals, Catholics, etc. etc. etc.*
The fliers are totally BS, and scribbling on them was v. entertaining.
HEE. You for the win! That would totally feel awful right now.
