Nerd Power!

[chronicle_tenko]

Taking some time.

Not accepted till he makes time to do it himself.

I'm sorry, But I'm taking the time today to post a real I miss you. All of you in the nerd thread. *HUGS*

I just... haven't had the greatest couple of months. This job only expands and expands. Started as an 8 hour job a day with a lunch and coffees and I could be home by three. Now it's almost ten hours a day and I'm lucky to eat everything in one 15 minute break.

I cut off a finger (Almost. It has since been sewn on with no nerve damage.) I gave myself a minor concussion and now wisdom teeth are jumping out of my mouth.

In short a real doozy, and while we try Rei Rei and I are not perfect we fight and a lot of that has to do with what must be an infamous low libido by now. It's fun to talk and joke and flirt, But come ten hours of hauling steel and swinging a hammer, sweeping, and walking (According to my little belt stepometer distance thing) 18+ km a day.... I'm sorry my lit freinds but If I can ignore the gorgeous sexy lovable Nerd Kitty for sleep, I most certainly can ignore the internet for one more day. And that's hard on us all. But changes are coming, and maybe MAYBE I HOPE AND PRAY, that I can be back online more at least over Christmas and then beyond.

I miss you all, Some maybe a little more than others, and I hope we'll be able to talk soon.

Till then good afternoon and in case I don't see you good night.

Not part of the Nerd Thread..BUT part of the posse who misses you.

*scratches the top of your head for a moment*

A-...Just take care of you and that little bundle of cuteness of yours... this place isn't going anywhere...neither do friendships fade just because of time apart.

Anybody else just get a flashback to the intro to the Iron Man cartoon?

 

[Wyldfire]

LMAO! Now that you mention it I do.

 

[SexyCleric]

this place isn't going anywhere...

*Stops welding Warp Nacelles onto the room*

Ummm. Well, see...

*Grumble*

Wee, had Sushi tonight for my belated-Thanksgiving dinner.

WHY does Sushi cost so damn much? I live in freaking Monterey Bay, it can't be THAT hard to find fish affordably?!

Other than that, I have recently spent about $400 in DVDs. Good lord. I now own the first two seasons of House, the first three seasons of Veronica Mars, the first four seasons of Coupling, the first seasons of Columbo and How I Met Your Mother, and all of Tenchi Muyo, along with Casa Blanca and The Truman Show.

Yeah, there was a sale, and I got out of control.

why didn't you get Season Three of House?

 

[SexyCleric]

I just listened to two of my coworkers argue about who would win in a fight; Zero or Mega Man X...

Other than the ridiculous nature of the argument, it struck me as such a waste...

Why must our faction argue amongst ourselves...
About the most petty of stuff to boot!

I swear to every third Lawful Evil god, I will unify our race, or see it ground into dust before me. If we would all just put aside our differences, or even better; embrace our diversity, there would be no adversity we could not overcome.

Plus, Zero would kick X's sorry blue ass.

Only the first couple of seasons were on sale. I got 'em cheap.

Heh. You just answered your own question with that last statement. We just can't seem able to resist arguing minutae amonst ourselves.
It only really brcomes a problem when it can't be contained to a 'friendly' disagreement.

I myself have had a (years long) running debate with a friend on whom would be victorious between Batman and the Punisher.
Clearly, Bats would ruin the Patheticer... I mean Punisher.

See, I think Frank would be able to kill Bats easily enough for the same reason that Zero could kill X...

When someone with no compunctions against killing fights someone who always tries not to kill, the result is inevitable.
It is far, far, harder to beat someone into submission than it is to kill a man.

Plus, to the best of my limited knowledge, no one has ever tried to kill Batman by simply blowing up his home or car, nor simply tried to pick him off with a high caliber rifle from a few hundred feet.

And we're off...

Well... I see what you're saying about the killer/not killer thing. But you need to remember, that Bats has no need to beat him unconscious, only to incapacitate him. Not nearly as hard a thing to accomplish. Punisher can be stunned, and tied up like anyone else can.

Yes, most of Bats' foes prefer the 'up close and personal' approach. That however doesn't mean that Bruce is unprepared for dealing with being hunted by cowards, who are unwilling to face him. He's dealt with such before, and successfully.

Regardless... You see what I mean.

In the coffee table book on the Bat that Hubby has I believe the Bat suit is said to be made of several layers of kevlar and such so as to provide protection from just this sort of thing. Besides, the Bat never gets it handed to him by a gun wielding thug. And that's all the Punisher is isn't it? The Bat would maybe be beaten by Captain America but I doubt the Punisher's that good.

Yes they have. Many times. And if the likes of Deathstroke and Deadshot can't do it, Frank (I'm sorry) Doesn't have a damn prayer of succeeding. Finding out He's Bruce Wayne would be fairly hard for Castle's skills. Blowing up the manor might be possible, (The thing is like a damn fortress though), the Batmobile a little more difficult, Frank would likely lose fingers trying to make it a bomb or set one up. Assuming the bat doesn't immediately notice, and take some twisted Deus Ex Machina Bullshit action to simply defuse it. And the Batmobile has withstood a rocket attack and a tank shell before. Up close I think bats has it all out for the punisher. Sorry just not gonna happen.

Though it's hardly Canon, Bats himself admitted that he would most likely (Without preparation) lose to Captain America, but that it would take so much time as to make defeating him useless, as Aid would already be there. And Stupidman is the be all end all of allies.

Because he is Stupidman.

personally on the Bruce vs. Frank thing, I see no reason why The Punisher would EVER go after The Bat. I mean seriously of all the people in the wide world of comics, Batman is about one of the Only Frank would like and accept for his methods. He'd think that he didn't go far enough, but He'd likely applaud the man's successes before condemning him as just another Spineless Wimp who can't go through with it all. (And I would personally put a .50 Slug through Jokers brain pan LONG AGO.) And if Batman sets out on the punisher first, well he's prepared, and then Frankie poo has NO CHANCE AT ALL.

wow...i finally decide to stop in and say hi to my fellow nerds...and i come in on a rather interesting conversation...

as a newbie, id have to say that while a very formidable opponent (and one of my favorite characters) should bats be caught by surprise...hes just a guy with decent training and lots of cool toys. on the off chance that he was caught unawares, bats could be taken down by mr castle...cap...hell even spider-man stands a decent chance.

so yeah...hi everyone

All very good points, thank you. And re: The Punysher, I couldn't have said it better, myself.

Up close I think bats has it all out for the punisher. Sorry just not gonna happen.

Another set of excellent points. I had thought of the angle of Frank even finding who the hell Bats is - I don't see how he'd be able to manage it. He's not really someone who waste a lot of time on cultivating investigative skills of the sort necessary to accomplish that. Deathstroke is another I think could likely take poor Frank.

Though it's hardly Canon, Bats himself admitted that he would most likely (Without preparation) lose to Captain America, but that it would take so much time as to make defeating him useless, as Aid would already be there. And Stupidman is the be all end all of allies.

Well, Bats really doesn't like Farnk's methods at all, and certainly wouldn't tolerate them in his city. This doesn't quite fit the bill, as it's a team-up (of sorts), and not a 'vs.' but nonetheless, has some intersting dialogue.

Kevlar don't mean much to a high velocity rifle round. Kevlar works best against fragmenting munitions. Short of a hard armor, bats better have a good plan.

Incapacitate... Knock unconscious... Tomatoes tomatoes.

Either way, it's just a nerd argument... No reasonable conclusion.

Precisely.
Exactly the point I was making.
Look at all the shit I stirred up by throwing that out there.
We just... cannot... resist... debating...

mornin all! hope everyone is doing well

Heh. Like I said...
No way to resist it...
But I am a geek, and not a nerd. Not that it really makes any practical difference...

A better chance. Both Cap and Spiderman are so far out of Frank's leauge as to call matches between them just plain unfair.

I (Mis)quote from the Book of Wanted...
My power is killing people, and it is the best fucking power out there.

But dammit all!
Comic books cannot be argued.
Different standards, different worlds.

WIN!

Not Really Just an In Joke.
