I liked to weed people out by putting a question at the end of my profile. If they seemed to have thought about the answer, that was good. If they thought it was a stupid question, not so good.

“Who would win in a fight, Batman or Superman?”

You should ask if the plane will take off. There is only one correct answer, so you can easily weed out the stupid people.

Pffft…that’s easy. Batman finds a way. Everybody knows that, right?

You would be surprised.

Are we talking about gritty, slightly disturbed Christian Bale Batman, the moderately efeminate batmen of Tim Burton or the full on flaming gay Adam West Batman? Because Superman can stop a bullet with his goddamn eye, and I don’t think any amount of spandex and fabulousness is going to find a way around that.

Batman would trick Superman into going near kryptonite and K.O. him in his weakened condition. Superman’s only smart when dealing with Mr. Mxyzptlk. Batman’s always smart.

I dunno, I recall Adam West getting knocked out and tied up a lot.

Well, the game of Set ended in my getting glomphed after I won by a two-fold margin, but mostly because they crushed me at Bonanza. Oh well!

If Batman doesn’t have kryptonite, Superman wins. But Batman always has kryptonite. Or almost always.

On the other hand, I’m not sure how the Adam West Batman found his shoe in the mornings, much less a chunk of kryptonite.

But if we’re talking Adam West Batman, then it’s only fair to pit him against George Reeves Superman. So…

Ah, but Superman can move at nearly the speed of light. Batman reaches for his utility belt, Superman super-speeds to a spot 100 feet away and incinerates Batman with his heat vision, Darkseid-style. The only way Batman wins is if Supes doesn’t know it’s a fight.

Why is this even debated? Animated GIFs resolved this a long time ago.

So, really, ABailey should be hitting on all of you geeks. Get busy with the OKC profiles!

I don’t think there is any shortage of single male geeks.

True, that.

That .GIF never fails to make me laugh. Masterfully done.

…Why do you hate me?

Hey there, can I show you my +3 Wand of Considerable Might?

Haha, no.

It’s actually an interesting question to put in a profile, as it’s a good way to screen folks. The people who would view it negatively are probably not ones you’d have clicked with, anyway.

Well, had a second date with a girl from OkCupid. She sort of had a breakdown when I explained that I was unwilling at this point in time (2 year relationship ended very recently, might be moving soon) to commit to a long-term, exclusive relationship, which was very obviously what she was looking for.

Which is a pity. She was interesting, funny, cute, and a theatre geek.

Other than that, have another date this weekend! This one’s a girl I’m meeting at a cafe in Mt Vernon (one of the nicer, cafe’d parts of Baltimore) and we’re going to talk about how ridiculously awesome the Delayed Choice Experiment is and why is it that geeks love thinking about the Zombie Apocalypse.

And tonight I’m spending with K. We’re watching the second half of the Pratchett movie (The Color of Magic / The Light Fantastic). Among other things. :)
