62. Boards (not this one) where things start off normal. Someone has a complaint, and it's understandable why.
Then by the time 20-30 posts' worth of comments have happened, everyone involved (whether pro or con) has managed to make such all-star asses of themselves that either misanthropy as a religion or throwing the computer off the roof become one's only options.
62a. The inexplicable masochism that makes me read this crap all the way to the end when I could instead pluck my chin hairs, start 2012's taxes, or do something/anything else meaningful with my life.

You need your own version of the Rotten Tomatoes or the Golden Turkey Awards. Instead of tomatoes or fowl icons you could use a church icon when bestowing ratings on a crappy film.

A poorly dubbed Power Rangers. that is all.
99. Batwoman #12. Finally an issue DRAWN by W. Haden Blackman ... (despite his name being on all the previous covers ... and the other artists drawing layouts in his style ...) I picked up this one for the real deal. finally.
100. Captain Marvel #2 ... I thought I'd give it a shot, the art is not bad, but the story is odd, and girl power-y ... can't she just be awesome and appeal to everybody? Not sure how I missed #1 ... was that the Spider Man one?
