How can two people hate so much without knowing each other?
crazy people way
If we can come up with all sorts of imaginative ways in which people die, then I really don't see what the problem is with coming up with imaginative ways in which people can procreate.

The entire universe - for one thing - only exists in your perceptions. That's all you're gonna see of it. To all practical intents and purposes this is purely some kind of lightshow that's being put on in the kind of neurons in our brain. The whole of reality.

To paint comic books as childish and illiterate is lazy. A lot of comic books are very literate - unlike most films.
