FIRST!
And no firsting!
Phirsting.
Oh phuck! I wish I’d thought of that.
Pschit!
STPHU!!
The Fantastic Four is a fictional superhero team appearing in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The group debuted in The Fantastic Four #1 (November 1961), which helped to usher in a new naturalism in the medium. The Fantastic Four was the first superhero team created by writer-editor Stan Lee and artist and co-plotter Jack Kirby, who developed a collaborative approach to creating comics with this title that they would use from then on. As the first superhero team title produced by Marvel Comics, it formed a cornerstone of the company’s 1960s rise from a small division of a publishing company to a pop-culture conglomerate. The title would go on to showcase the talents of comics creators such as Roy Thomas, John Byrne, Steve Englehart, Walt Simonson, John Buscema, George Perez and Tom DeFalco, and is one of several Marvel titles still in publication since the Silver Age of Comic Books.
The four core individuals traditionally associated with the Fantastic Four, who gained superpowers after exposure to cosmic rays during a scientific mission to outer space, are: Mr. Fantastic (Reed Richards), a scientific genius and the leader of the group, who can stretch his body into incredible lengths and shapes; the Invisible Woman (Susan “Sue” Storm), Reed’s wife, who can render herself and others invisible and project powerful force fields; the Human Torch (Johnny Storm), Sue’s younger brother, who can generate flames, surround himself with them and fly; and the monstrous Thing (Ben Grimm), their grumpy but benevolent friend, who possesses superhuman strength and endurance due to the nature of his stone-like flesh.
Since the original four’s 1961 introduction, the Fantastic Four have been portrayed as a somewhat dysfunctional yet loving family. Breaking convention with other comic-book archetypes of the time, they would squabble and hold grudges both deep and petty, and eschew anonymity or secret identities in favor of celebrity status. The team is also well known for its recurring struggles with characters such as the villainous monarch Doctor Doom, the planet-devouring Galactus, the sea-dwelling prince Namor, the spacefaring Silver Surfer, and the shape-changing alien Skrulls.
The Fantastic Four have been adapted into other media, including four animated television series, an aborted 1990s low-budget film, the major motion picture Fantastic Four (2005), and its sequel, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007).
Disney bought Marvel, to my sorrow. God, I love the marvel characters!!!
And, indeed, to mine, although I normally prefer DC characters anyway.
But can you run them on AC?
That sounds like a Daffy idea. They’d end up with a lot of Bugs.
And no posing for the paparazzi for fauxtos.
That would be a faux pas.
Dangit!11!! Can someone direct me to the photing room please (it’s kinda urgent)? Thanks!
Don’t forget to show photer registration card at the door.
Oooh! Another “Meaning of Liff” moment!
Photing: (vb.) Making a snap decision at the polling booth.
What other kind are you supposed to make…? Have I been doing it wrong??
No, but now there’s a name for it.
Is it Zaphod Beeblebrox?
Oops! Forgot to change back.
You have been posting like that for a LONG time!
So has Zaphod Beeblebrox.
There is something strange going on here. I would change back to my usual tag, but it wouldn’t stay that way until I’d done it at least 3 times. It’s happened before. Does anyone know why? I suspect faulty cookies.
Also, I post on other sites using a variant of my real name, rather than my Cheezname (qv). Recently, I was trying to start posting on another WordPretzel blog, and it refused to let me post when I changed my name from paws4thot, but the Cheeznet sites are all happy to let me change my posting name regularly. I’m sure you’ve noted Dreadful Spelling Sprite and Dreadful Pun Hell Fairy’s new colleage!
I’m not sure what you’re referring to your last sentence. What have I missed?
You’d never met me? Perhaps that’s because I’ve never needed to call on you in my professional capacity?
That’s an important job, like carting away the garbage. The people who do that often go unnoticed, too.
The unnoticed people seem to be amply compensated for by the noisy machinery that is impossible to ignosre.
Yes, that annoying “ssss…” intrudes into everything, doesn’t it?
I had a severe disagreement with the name droid also. It even took away my yellow avatar and never gave it back.
If you love your yellow avatar set it free. If it comes back to you it’s yours, if it doesn’t, it never was.
Just delete the cookies!
I would, if I knew which ones. I don’t want to delete them all very often, because some of them are useful.
I have been looking for a “Delete all cookies except those selected” command. Maybe no-one has thought of it yet.
If you are using Firefox you can do something similar to that.
I’m not, but I was wondering about that. I can’t see a way to do it.
Is it an add-on?
No, wasn’t referring to an add-on. Though there may be an add-on with additional features, there are so many for Firefox.
In Firefox select > tools > options > privacy ….there will be a number of settings there to choose from including a number of settings for cookies. You can customize.
Apparently the Mac version is different. There is no “options” in the Tools menu. The only way that I’ve found to access cookies is >Preferences>Privacy, which is not where they’re located in Safari, so I can’t see why they would make that change.
Neither Mac that I use has Firefox at this time nor are they used for going online.
The latest version of Firefox is 3.5.5 that I know of.
I do have Safari on my PC in addition to other browsers. I like it but wish that it had more choices for it’s settings especially for security/cookies.
Long time ago I used to only work with Macs and often found PCs to be a little disorienting.
I’m sure I amused many people when I’d say, when working on a PC, – nothing is where it should be!-. lol
“nothing is where it should be”- too right! I still remember the first time I had to use Win95. I struggled through, and then tried to find the shut-down command. Who in their right mind would put it behind a button marked START ?
umm yes, that says a lot…:lol:
When I first approached Vista it was with gritted teeth. But much to my surprise I found that I really liked it. I think that is because there are some aspects of it that remind me of earlier Mac OS’s, like 8.5 or earlier.
Snap – that’s exactly what I thought the moment I saw this picture.
To phote: (v.i.) to pretend to be talking on your mobile so as to avoid having to talk to someone you would prefer to avoid.
To phote: (v.t.) to change the ringtone of someone else’s phone to a song that has obscene lyrics without their knowledge or permission.
Heh heh! That second one reminds me of the time a woman accused me of whistling a dirty tune. Naturally, she had no idea why I started laughing.
Like the reply that Samuel Johnson gave to the woman who congratulated him on omitting obscene words from his dictionary: “And how would you know, madam, unless you went looking for them?”
What happens if I accidentally phot here?
As long as it’s an accidental photing, I think you’ve got a pretty good story to tell the judge.
Please, just hurry on out and maybe it won’t happen!
After you spent all of that money to buy that complete collection of professional photing equipment and trucked it in here, you are going to have a hard time convincing a judge and jury that you accidentally photed.
i LOL’d too hard at this comment
I think PG makes the salient point – it’s all about intention. It’s going to be difficult to plead accidental photing, if you were clearly guilty of Going Equipped To Phot. I think you’re going to have to wear a charge of Pre-meditated Photing.
Sh!t or get off the phot!
Ooh isn’t someone just BAD? Taking a phote of the “no photing” sign! What is civil society coming to?
It’s dem rebellious teenagers again.
I am actually not rebellious at ALL! I listen to the old people above me, I eat my veggies, and I wouldn’t have anything to rebel over!
Not at ALL? i don’t think that’s possible, or even desirable. There’s nothing wrong with rebelling against things you think are wrong, as long as you’ve thought about it and what you do doesn’t just make things worse.
I’m sure you don’t do everything the “old people” tell you; nobody gets it right all the time. If I went along with half the things my 80-year-old neighbour has told me, I’d be completely crazy. (instead of just a bit crazy).
I don’t find anything wrong with what my elders tell me to do. Either I do what they want, or I ask if I can skip it. I don’t see any reason to rebel!
Psst! hey, kid, you wanna buy a bridge??
No.
How about some troubled water?
Good! That tells me you’re working on a set of independent internal standards.
Someday, your parents’ standards won’t work for you, and that’s ok.
The goal is to have good workable standards for yourself.
That can be loosely interpreted as rebelling.
Gum, please… Not a truckload! I have nowhere to put it. Just a piece.
*gives piece of gum to bluejade*
Indeed, it clearly says no photing and yet someone has photed it. Can they not read?
The only way they will get my photer is to pry it out of my cold dead hands.
The only way they will get my photer is to pry it off my cold, dead PC.
Wait, I think I get it. No photing means they don’t want you to take a photo with your camera sideways. Look at the picture, it couldn’t have been clearer. As long as your using the camera in the upright position, you should be fine.
Shoot landscapes only. No portrait phots.
I like photing up and downing.
Some people prefer videotaphing themselves when up and downing.
It’s always a lot of fun when their children find the video!
:0
I hope you either don’t have kids or never make a video.
Kids, 1; videos, 0.
I found a video tape in my parent’s closet, and I asked them what it was; they said it was from a long time ago……and then they quickly changed the subject, so I am guessing it was one of those.
Wait till they’re not home, then check it out!!! Then tell them you posted it on the internet… no, better, you shared it on your cell phone.
1. They hid it again. 2. I DON’T WANT TO SEE THAT. 3. We don’t have a VCR!
No VCR? Next thing you’re going to tell me is that you don’t have a turntable that plays 78-rpm records!
We do have that. My dad likes records.
Well, I’m a purist. I only play wax cylinders.
Well……..that’s nice.
Oh, no….
I like photing up and down, doo dah, doo dah…
Do you have the videos on the internet? If so……you know how to paste links!
Dr. Handle? Will you object to your own up and downing?
I have no objections!
I’m a married woman, so it’s all right for me to up and down, with my husband. In private. In our own house. With the blinds closed. And the door shut. And the lights off. Provided we remove as little clothing as possible. Every year, on our wedding anniversary.
Did you ever make videos?
(paste link below)
You live in the fifties?
Leave it to Beaver?
Maybe they are just being polite?
That’s right. Polite get son. Romantic get daughter. More romantic get ladyboy. The aim is to be so excruciatingly polite we don’t even get son.
Dear Doctor, since you are knowledgeable about this sort of thing, I’ve been meaning to ask, actually been afraid to ask… but… but…
what do you get with fast and dirty?
clarification- should have wrote – what would I get ? – didn’t mean *you*. sorry.
Just guessing- you might get a son-of-a-b!tch.
O.o
Well, I guess that’s better than a little lernaean hydra?
Where’s a photon to go?
a photons to go to the photon room duh *directs JohnB to photon room*
What the photon is going on around here?
I can’t seem to find Photon Room Duh. What number is it?
Room 299,792,458
Then it’s a good thing I’m going at the speed of light!
Very funny. that’s not correct english.
what’s English? do you mean engrish?
It actually means ‘No Voting.’ Because it’s China.
If you think what’s underneath the sticker is china, you’ve probably got too much on your plate.
I hope it’s not a photographic plate. Everyone’s going digital now.
Even with dental plates?
If you mean dental x-rays, apparently they are going digital, too. Doctors and dentists need computer skills now.
No, I was referring to the dental appliances called plates. But for that matter, I have a titanium plate in my arm, and as far as I know it’s not digital.
This is all just too phoo phoo for me.
oops, i photed
Please clean up after yourself.
An unfortunate side effect of eating too many borked beans.
How do you bork beans, unless you actually mean mashed beans?
Baked beans, Swedish style.
Bork bork bork!
Love them ol’ borkin’ beans!
They can certainly pull a wind.
I pooted.
CHEESE IS AWESOME!
(the video is long, but is really funny!)
The “I pooted” is from this character…..I dunno if it is in the video…..but I decided to post it anyways!
Wow. You’re THAT Young? At least we now know where the “I like potatoes” comes from.
My favourite line is “At least the bunnies are on fire”.*
* No bunnies were harmed in the making of this cartoon.
I didn’t watch the cartoon, my friend sent me the link!
Bloo: “He’s screwing everything up!” Cheese: “Nooo! I’m only screwing the wheel!!!”
That made me wonder what age these toons are really aimed at. I can’t believe the writers are *that* innocent!
ā« I phot the sign, and the sign won. ā«
You phot the Dreadful Pun Hell fairy, and the Dreadful Pun Hell fairy *clonk*ed.
