   Dave Van Domelen, "As long as you stay inside the white tape you're perfectly safe from any and all ANCIENT DEATH RELICS!" - Gina Diggers, who could probably write a full-sized book of nothing but her own Famous Last Words, Gold Digger v3 #108.

I am Legion, I contain Matter-Eater Lad

Like pretty much everyone, there are contradictions in my nature. But two that are helpful to know are these:

1. Despite my preoccupation with the fantastical and speculative, I am a rather hard-headed skeptic when it comes to drawing a firm line between what happens in fiction and what I accept can happen in reality.
   
2. Despite my finely-honed critical faculties (or, at least, frequently-exercised faculties), I can enjoy something like Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, because just as I can distinguish between fantasy and reality, I can distinguish between fun and good when the two don't overlap. ;) RotF is NOT good. But it's fun.
