Has there really been a pink kryptonite, or am I misremembering?

It was a gag toward the end of PAD's Supergirl, when Linda visited the Silver Age. And, yes, it caused SA Superman to flirt with Jimmy.


My views are my own and do not reflect those of everyone else... and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Lots of scripted, yet still unfunny panel shows on the radio this weekend.

Lots of unfunny TIktok videos out there too, apparently

don't watch any myself, only watch them from the videos of a guy who makes fun of them

I don't have much time for gaming. One football game, in particular, just takes ages. I have watched videos of others, who quickly take my club through s few seasons.

I'm not a gamer, either, though I loved video games way back when they were in arcades rather than living rooms (I feel so old!)

While I did like the feel of arcades, I appreciated playing on personal consoles so I could really get into the games. no waiting turns smile

Cheaper than all the pennies spent in arcades too. I played an emulated version of an old arcade game recently. I was just as rubbish as I found the controls as annoying as they were all those years ago.

The way some of the arcade machines made sure to be cash grabs, as no arcade owner wants one kid hogging up a machine all day, reminded me of later cash grabs through apps. Different generations, same human nature.

Like those old carnival games, hit the target win a prize... and they make the target really hard to hit

Rifle sights that are off, targets that are weighted not to fall over, not offering any of the "top" prizes for what you've won... Lots of ways to take advantage of customers. Prices for even this have gone up and up.

"Great Day for Up" was a children's book written by Dr. Seuss and drawn by Quentin Blake. In it, everybody and everything is relentlessly, annoyingly "UP," except for the narrator, who doesn't want to get out of bed.

I wonder if that was a reference to toxic positivity.

"Well, the sun didn't go nova today." A positive thought we can all have each day. Well, until...

Typically, the first two people I tried this new positive approach to, were Nova and Mosquito of the Justice Corps super team.

Infectious Lass didn't much appreciate it, either.

It just occurred to me that Infectious Lass's home planet of Somathur might have had its name derived from the phrase "stomach hurts."

Everything makes tons of sense with Star Boy around.

I've never much liked Star Boy. When Levitz and Giffen killed him off near the end of the Retroboot, I coined the phrase "Bearded Pancake."

He's not one of my favorite Legionnaires. I don't dislike him, I just find him a bit boring in comparison to many others.

I think he would've been more interesting if he'd staryed with the Subs rather than rejoining the Legion.
