25 - Ugh.

It'd been nice if them super heroes put on a police uniform rather than goin' off on their own, but Gotham was a million years ago, so I don't know what I'm saying any more.

[Private to Hoffman]

Where'd you wander off to, anyway? [He doesn't like you, particularly, but in fairness, he doesn't like much of anybody, and he's curious.]

You're honestly tryin' to tell me here that it's better that these guys answer to nobody and keep going off attracting the attention of less community-minded super-yobs when they could share their gismos and get help whenever they need it without havin' to growl?

Come off it!

[ichoosefight]

I'm not saying it's better, it's just how things are done there. You come off it.

[thinkb4ublink]

Yeah, just 'how things are done' is the most profoundly stupid explanation in existence, because it explains nothing and makes you come off like an ignorant toe rag.

Lots o' things are done the wrong, dumb way, haven't you ever watched 'Yes, Minister'?

[ichoosefight]

What is 'Yes, Minister'?

[thinkb4ublink]

Political satire. [He's about to be positive, brace yourself.] It's actually good. Made in the eighties, but it's stood up to the test of time.

[ichoosefight]

I thought political satire was kind of dependent on the era.

[thinkb4ublink]

Nope! This is as true then as it is today. Politicians don't really change, do they?

[ichoosefight]

I guess I wouldn't know.
