I'm more of a Dork Knight

Today was a pretty epic day in my life. I finally have Batman boxers.

Yeah, I'm 23

I'll give you a bit to absorb this bit of incredible.

Because I seem to be on a lucky streak as of late, they were even on sale. I think it may be due to the lack of symmetry on them. Anyways I’m excited.

In my excitement I started thinking why I like Batman so much. I mean, I love superheroes in general. I believe they are our modern day myths and legends, and someday future societies will look back and talk about how Bruce Banner had to conquer his rage or how Peter Parker learned responsibility comes with great power. So riddle me this: What makes Batman so darn special?



I really just wanted to see if a gif would work or not

  

I believe the answer is actually pretty simple: There’s a version of Batman for everyone. He transcends almost any medium. Whether you want the Batman Beyond or you prefer Brave and the Bold (complete with *POW* sound effects), Arkham Asylum or The Dark Knight Returns, Adam West or Christian Bale (Or Lewis Wilson/Robert Lowery/Michael Keaton/Val Kilmer/George Clooney, if you like the Bat nipples/and my personal favorite Kevin Conroy), movies or graphic novels, comics or animated series, video games or musical theatre YOU CAN HAVE IT! Young or old, man or woman, rich or poor, casual observer or dedicated fan, there is Batman for you.

Now this isn’t my only reason for liking Batman (though it definitely helps to have a Batman for any mood). Honestly I could go on for a ridiculously long time listing reasons why I like Batman, and one day I definitely will. Next time I probably won't even need to buy new boxers for inspiration.

So what about you? Do you like Batman, or are you more of a Superman type person? Maybe you prefer another member of the Bat-Family (Batwoman anyone??). Or maybe you think superheroes are dumb. Feel free to comment with any comments, suggestions, or if you just really like typing words and then hitting buttons.

Oh here are some links for stuff to watch if you want to show Batman being everywhere:

Also, my next post will be less Batman-y. Honest

I really want some cereal

I'm not completely sure how this blog thing works. I mean, I should by now... Shouldn't I? A lot of my friends have blogs, and a lot of people I don't know personally but would like to meet have blogs, but I'm still not completely sure how they work. I get the basics. I think of something, I write it down, usually in a humorous or interesting way, and you read it. Example:

Today I went to class. There were no dragons there, but how interesting would it have been if there had. Then I went to work. We had a party. Still no dragons. Then I went to another class and daydreamed of having a giant waffle fight. Then I came home and started doing laundry. Again.. No dragons. Finally I found my old Spanish blog and decided to change it to my new and shiny Not Spanish Blog.

Huh... guess I do know how this works after all. I'll be updating when I think of it with thoughts about stuff, guides to life, theories about things, and general rambunctiousness.
