-=Dark_Angel=-, P.I.18 Dec 2004

Which is how? Let's examine your higgledy-piggledy position.

Quote: "Does anyone not suspect he is the embodiment of thwarted lives seeking betterment through a Superman or Spiderman."

I mean forget about the details of any given superhero. The sentence just doesn't make any sense.

1. Superman does not "play" or "embody" Superman -- he *is* Superman. He doesn't pretend to have Super-powers -- he does have them. (The same goes for Spiderman, and indeede Batman.) If anything, he is playing at being Clark Kent. This is the exact reverse of your claim.

2. Furthermore, Superman and Spiderman, the two superheroes heroes you mentioned, aren't log-ins to an internet forum that multiple people use. They are single people. (Ironically, comparing -=Dark_Angel=-, P.I. to Batman would have made more sense, since according to zodiac, Batman is an identity taken on by more than person.

3. I suppose you will retort by saying that *reading* about Superman is an escapist fantasy of the sort your mentioning. Probably your higgledy-piggledy mind can't understand the difference between "embodying" a shero and "vicariously living" through reading about his exploits.

You've mussed-up everything, Dovina. Everything.
