I don’t know about you, but I’m not into the term “guilty pleasures”. The only way you should feel guilty about something you enjoy is if it’s illegal or will hurt someone you care about. However, the term usually refers to something you’re embarrassed to enjoy. Why? I fully embrace stuff some of you consider a “guilty pleasure”, which should surprise nobody who’s been reading this site long enough.
“6 Commonly Used Phrases That Make Everyone Hate You” looks into that one, and other fan/media terms like “binge-watch” (which I’ve never heard and thought people still used “marathon”), misusing “-gasm” like they used to “-mania”, and others. Can we stop using them now?
Tim as Robin, Dick as Nightwing. That’s how it feels right to me.

I know I wouldn’t be surprised.
It’s true, I started a Tumblr. I wanted a place to discuss my personal thoughts on the fly and about non-storytelling thoughts. Twitter’s getting a bit spammy with my thoughts. It’s also another promotional avenue, but things are a bit more “me” there, so there will be thought on politics, social issues, spirituality, and other stuff in addition to my nostalgia and writing interests. You can also ask me questions if for some reason there’s something you want to know, but I reserve the right not to answer. Give it a look if you’re interested but while I may mention something I said on The Tronix Tumblr when it relates to something I’m writing here or elsewhere I won’t have it in the weekly posting list below.
Good news, kids. I bought some NEW comics this week. That means at least for a few days this week (more if I get to the comic store in time) we’ll have Today’s Comic making a return, including Best Scene!
In the re-imagined He-Man & The Masters Of The Universe, He-Man and Battle Cat’s origins happen together. In the classic series we never get to see how Adam became He-Man, but we do get to see how Cringer first became Battle Cat. It’s…not as interesting as we would have thought, but there are still some interesting things we learn in this story.
