Utah's badge is kinda unimposing. Send that fucker over to the guys in the design department.

I debated back and forth if I wanted badges to be all blinged-out or not. I opted for plain text which has a variety of benefits.

@Kirk: I was just messin'. I think non-chalant is the way to go. Plus, when Utah goes out and gets that tattoo, it will be subtle and his Mrs. Utah might not notice it.

@Danny: That would be cool.

I love my badges. 

Send PM and Remove friend.

Remove Friend makes me sad.  I hate think it's that easy.

Its good for when you are mad at people then you forgive them and are like "Oh, That was an accident!"

I'm pretty unforgiving though.  Unfriend me in anger and we will never be friends AGAIN!  Unless there is a bribe involved.

I am tempted to try that just for kicks some time.

Okay,

Kirk, you should create an "Offender of the People" position next.

Yeah, we need amassaturds(Ambassadors). Can Chester and I have "Menace to the People" badges? It would be a fantastic warning to people not to take anything we say seriously. Cult badges would be cool too...

Just sayin'.

I want a title.  How about "Spider-man" or "Shazam".  When I was a kid, I always thought Shazam was way cooler than Superman (and I never called him Captain Marvel because that's dumb - although if his name was 'Shazam' all you'd have to do is ask him his name and he'd turn back into a little boy).  Shazam was magic; Superman is an alien.  I'm way more into fantasy than sci-fi.  

But Shazam's little side-cape is pretty gay.

Really, Batman (60's TV show and then Super Friends) and Spiderman (on The Electric Company and later Spiderman and Friends (with iceman and firestar - oh firestar was hot)) were probably the greatest things in my childhood life.  My dad even tried to teach me how to use a grappling hook.

What the hell was I talking about?  Anyone else try iced coffee as a creamer in real coffee?  It doesn't work that well.

Oh and Congrats on being the Spider-Man of Lit Reactor.  We needed a web-slinger.  So, can I be Batman, or what?

edit: Oh, saw a picture of you.  You're more Batman than me.  Can I be Spider-Man, then?

Who is more Batman than you, Howie?  I've thought of you as a Caped Crusader type since we Lit-met.
