Ultimately Off-Topic

I'll respond to the rest when I'm on my computer and not my phone, but yeah, the madder Rulk gets the hotter he gets. I love Rulk. Lol

Is he stronger than Banner Hulk?

I so badly want to just start a conversation with her and get to know her but I don't know how to do it without it feeling unnatural.

I'm really worried about coming off too strong. It screwed me with the last girl I liked and I want to get this right.

I know but I don't know how to start. I mean, I can message her but that would require me starting out really lamely with a "hi" or whatever and I don't want to make things awkward right away. If I can start, I feel like I'll be perfectly fine but landing that is going to be difficult for me.

Over thinking will ruin most things and I speak from experience, so listen to Wyo.

Marvel's The Avengers: Age of Ultron plot details!

There's a comic that was before the reboot. It was really dumb and written by David S. Goyer. Superman renounces his status as a US citizen. Speaking of which Superman Earth One Volume 3 i officially solicited.

Just remember that confidence - above all else - is your primary tool in your arsenal. And lack of it shows a lack of inner-strength, the sort of strength in which women are strongly attracted to and what they look for in males. It's not nice on us. But that's just how it is. It's as though we're not allowed to get emotional about love unless your Ryan Gosling with a six pack. But my advice is that when you are next feeling confident, express and slightly exaggerate the best features of your personality. I know it's not easy, but try to think of it as character building. And every time you fail, you learn.

What a c**t. Announcing something that was clearly very personal and clearly not something you want everybody to know. You're teacher is either a cerebrally insufficient dumbass or he just doesn't like you. What a bastard. My advice would be to ignore this experience and move on.

That little conversation you had with the girl you like on Facebook, it wasn't great but it wasn't that bad either. What you did wrong (by panicking) was apologise for something that's not your fault as a girl is likely to think it isn't something a man should feel sorry about. I'm sorry to say this, but that apology probably blown it for you. Girls really don't like it when guys are sorry when they needn't be. It gives the impression that you're not strong or confident enough to be the man she wants to be with.

But I really don't think it went as badly as you think. In fact, this could be the start of a beautiful friendship. She said she really liked your excerpt, which is good. It shows that she finds you (at least a little bit) interesting, which is important. And she very clearly understood how you felt when you wrote it. She's obviously very empathic and therefore sympathetic to how you felt/feel. So it seems you've possibly made a friend. Sure, you probably won't be able to date her now after the apology and weak presence of your approach (sorry about that), but you've possibly made a friend and learnt more about yourself. Think of this whole experience as a character building experience. That's what you need to take away from this.
Fair enough. But she probably didn't reply because she didn't know what to reply with. That's the ting with pretty girls. You can't always leave it up to them to make the effort. She probably thought the discussion had ended.

My advice right now would be to leave it a week. And then approach her all happy and smiley at a later date and ask her how she's doing. If she wants you to buzz off, you'll soon get the message. But don't hold out too much hope in making her your girlfriend. That apology you made probably squashed any sexual desire she mighty have had. But don't worry about it. Just take this whole experience as character building and move on. And good luck in the future.

Someone gave away free digital codes for some Spider-Verse stuff, so I got to read Edge of Spider-Verse #1 and 2. The Noir stuff was decent, but I really enjoyed Spider-Gwen.

I've picked up #1, but I've haven'tread #2 yet, which seems to be the most interesting out of the series.

Sounds like a decent plot. And it's always exciting when the Avengers go global. I predict this sequel will trump the original in every way.

It's no wonder Superman would want to be an international resident of Earth and not just an American one.

I've heard about that book and I heard it was a badly written one too. But I certainly don't think it's a bad idea for Superman to renounce his US citizenship. I actually think it's a wise and very necessary move. Ideally, I would like to as well. When someone asks you to stand up and raise your hand for your country's flag, don't. Say that if you're going to pledge an allegiance to anything, it will be to all the nations, all it's people and all it's resources. That should be the heritage of the Earth. That's the kind of thinking that will help to squash our money-greedy nationalistic rivalries. Our money system has turned every national government utterly competitive with one another. That's why we wage war and have unnecessary conflict between governments. It's all for money! Back to the point I was originally making, Superman renouncing his citizenship is important because his existence as an American citizen will undoubtably further swell our nationalistic disputes. It's a no-brainer. If you're going to be moral influence to humanity, siding with a nation out of patriotic bias is only going to cause problems. Renouncing his US citizenship allows him be an icon for all the people on Earth and it also helps prevent other nations from fearing and hating him. Superman shouldn't ever be an American symbol, but a symbol for the people of Earth. Suffice to say "Truth, justice and the American Way" became compromised a long, long time ago, since even before Superman's creation. What it means to stand for "the American way" is an increasingly complicated thing, due to America's tyranny upon the world. If you're going to be the saviour for all the people of Earth, then any sort of zealous nationalism is clearly the wrong way of going about it. Don't you agree?

By renouncing his citizenship, he is also helping America. It would indeed be impossible for a nigh-omnipotent being ideologically aligned with America to intercede against injustice beyond American borders without creating enormous political fallout for the U.S. government. Imagine if he were to fly over Iran. It could very possibly be seen as an act of war to the Iranian government. So you see, his citizenship in fact stagnates his quest for human prosperity.

That's a good solicit. I like what I'm hearing. Sounds like it will be a good Superman vs Lex Luthor book. Plus, the return of he who destroyed Krypton. Wasn't that Tyrell, the villain from Vol.1?

Tyrell's last words before he died in the explosion with a smile in his face: "He still doesn't know! He doesn't know about the..." And then BOOOM!! He's dead.

It seems whatever Tyrell was talking about will be a shock reveal within the plot of Volume 3. Perhaps it wasn't Tyrell who destroyed Krytpon. I bet Tyrell was working for Brainiac. I theorise that Tyrell was one of Brainiac's Generals, and that's why Tyrell had such an abundance of technological weaponry and AI controled spaceships. This is a theory I've had for a while now, and it seems it might be coming to light.

And so, with Brainiac, Luthor and Superman in one book, we should receive a good story revolving around these intellectual geniuses. The Superman: Earth One books have already focused heavily on Superman's intellect, so this seems like the next logical step. Superman vs Brainiac vs Luthor. Arguably the three most intelligent super-beings in the DC universe going head to head. It sounds like this is going to be a BIG story, and by "big" I mean pivotal, well told and seriously awesome. I know the Superman: Earth One books haven't been this good in the past, but given the set-up of the previous two books, it seems this trilogy will tie-up in a brilliant way, if my theories turn out to be true.

As for the "Who will save Superman?" from the solicit, I think it will be Lex Luthor. And it will be Luthor who destroys Brainiac. That would cool.

Thoughts? Anyone?

It depends on the girl. But in general it really isn't a good idea to apologise for things that aren't your fault in front of a girl you want to attract. It's one of those slip ups us guys sometimes make when we get emotional and it can sometimes destroy all the progress you might've made. In actual fact, caring less, or rather, seeming less interested is likely to raise her interest.

More often than not, creating sexual desire in a women is through a display of a male's character and presence. The psychological aspects are worlds apart from how guys like girls or of what we want from a girl. For us, being good looking and kind-natured is not enough. Women like strong characters. But be yourself. That's important. But you shouldn't ever act like a stereotypical player either. There are better ways to behave. Try this. Practice being wise and having a wise demeanour about you. Give her the idea that you're a CAPABLE man, a wise, independent, dignified male. Girls are actually very good at acting dignified. And this is because they subconsciously copy what they're attracted to: poise, demeanour, confidence and the way you respond. That's the best advice I can give you.

And whatever you do, you can't ever be too predictable. Right now, you shouldn't be letting her predict the way you're going to be. This confusion can spark massive sexual desire in a girl, as she tries to figure you out. So be unpredictable. Don't let her predict how you're going to be. At least not until you're dating her. Being predictable at this point will only bore her and make her lose interest quicker than the Flash can run.


I think that's good. But if she's already made up her mind about you, it will be almost impossible to change it. Probably the best thing you can do is keep her wondering and pondering about you. It's not easy, but being predictable will cause her to lose interest at a faster rate.

But look, just because I know this stuff doesn't mean I'm actually good at it. I know some stuff. And it helps. It helps me to make sure I don't make the mistakes that so many guys make.

But I often have no idea what to say to a girl I like for the first time. It's difficult. But if there's a pretty girl with lots of guy's buzzing around her, I try to be different to them and stand out amongst them instead. Girl's tend to really like the alpha male, so I try not to follow or do what all the other guys are doing. But before I had my girlfriend, seeing girls was not easy. I didn't have a clue what to say, or how not to be too obvious about liking her. And I'm like that with everyone I meet. I'm not good at initiating a conversation. But I do pride myself on how I respond. I'm pretty good at responding, I'm just not very good at coming up with new tings to say. What the hell am I supposed to talk to a girl about? Computer games? Lol.

What performances made you choose these?
