Awwww. Why not? Go to the library. Sometimes they carry really good stuff.Well you dunderhead! Have you ever heard those stories about guys in the West? YOu know. They go around claiming they're the fastest guns in the West and everyone wants to take a shot at them. You are a self proclaimed bully. If you go around saying you can take people on then someone is going to come shooting at you.
Me? I didn't hit a bully unless I had solid evidence against them. Then I let them know why I was going to hurt them, or humiliate them. Whatever works. Something tells me that you aren't really that bad a bully though. Even though you do rep Thanos.

i can beat the people up at my school, or grade, but you never know whos on the forum.....
everyone on this thing says they work out, well i dont, ill wait until i reach my max height(cant take the chance for stunted growth.)
I was only using the fastest gun illustration as a metaphor. You don't go around saying your the fastest gun in the West and you don't go around saying that you can beat up people on this forum (that I've noticed) but if you carry yourself or say that you can beat the people up at your school, grade or whatever then it's just the same as saying, "I'm the fastest gun in town." It's just that your town happens to be a school, grade....whatever.
The point is that you make yourself a target. That's why they hit you. They don't need a reason. You supply it by trying to belittle those around you.
Incidentally, how tall are you?

It was something that rubbed off on me from him but, I just haven't had the drive to you know? I'll still research people like now seeing as I'm judging but, other than that I don't. Thats why all my threads are pretty much eh and I know they are. I made the jump from the vs forum to the OTF but, I still post here every now and then. 😊

But the violence and killing parts are alright for a 9 year old?
Any comics I buy for her I read first to determine if they're appropriate. As far as violence goes for most of it, you can find worse stuff on TV in shows aimed at kids and most of the stuff is no more violent or gory than the stuff in Harry Potter that she's read. People have died in that, Harry's nemesis is genuinly a not nice guy, etc.
And I didn't meant to turn this into a debate about sexuality in comics. Sexuality in all its forms should be present somewhere in comics as they strive to be representative of the world. I don't want her to be exposed to gay couples via Young Avengers. On the other hand, I didn't give her the issues of Teen Titans where Wonder Girl and Superboy had sex. Nor did I give her the recent issues with the bizarre Monsier Mallah and the Brain love fest.
Certainly, I could give her some older issues of Spider-Man except...whoa, they're not too kid friendly either. At her age, I was reading my father's old collection where Harry Osborne overdoses, Norman kills Gwen, etc. That's not really kid friendly either. I turned out okay, but could the same be said for every kid? If sometime later in life I have a son or daughter, I don't want them reading about drugs, murder, sex, etc. At some point they'll have to learn, because unfortunately, that's just life, but childhood is precious, and sometimes that stuff can make one grow up too fast.
It's a fine line to walk, I'm not saying my approach is the correct one, but I do the best I can, and given the material, sometime's that's difficult.

Wow. I really respect that and I know just where your coming from. I am really close with my mom's boss kids (we grew together). I'm older than them and they think of me as a big bro and I see them as my lil bro and sis. I look out for them the same way that you do for your little sister. It really makes me feel great to hear about someone like you looking out for someone you care about. Sounds like a great dad in the making.

im not a nerd either, but surprisingly a bully... in school.
I had to laugh when I read that. It just kinda took me back. In grades 7 and 8 I was picked on by like every bully in existence. I admit it, I was very nerdy looking then. Skinny, short, huge glasses, pokemon everything. Grade 9 though I got taller and more confident and spent most of that year kicking the ass of all the bullies that used to pick on me (I thank Monday night RAW for all those grapples and holds I used). Then grade 10-12 was just smooth sailing for me. I got taller, ditched the oversized glasses and developed a real smart ass personality. First year of college I started hitting the gym, second year I started boxing and now I'm pretty ripped (though I've been away from the gym for a few months).
When you really look at I've progressed like Spider-man. Sweet. Now all I need is a hot red-headed actress wife. I wonder what Lindsey Lohan is doing Friday 😄

Unfortunately, she's no longer red-headed. Or hot for that matter. 😐

im surprisingly tough for my size, what i weigh 150, dont even think i can bench 120, but i can throw around some ripped kids, fat kids. and i can also hit extremely hard, and take a beating(thanx to my brothers)
it also helps to wrestle with people and hit them at every break we get.
Originally posted by ScarletSpiderDude, you're overreacting. and surely goo sexual education is necessary etc... I mean, i see why you don't want your son/ daughetr of the future to become a ra;ist or killer, but maybe it would EDUCATE them about it... kind of a depressing Cirt cobaine style moral... 😄

You know. Nerdy, beat up a lot, time progresses, gains more confidence, smart ass, gets a nice body (although Peter's was cause of the spider-bite and mine was thanks to Bally's). And thats how we're similiar
At least thats what I tell myself to go to sleep every night. I am a super-hero, I am a super-hero-, I am a super-hero...
Originally posted by bigbranYeah I'm the exact opposite I hate fighting I think it stupid and nothing good comes from it and those you have to live by fighting are generally those who feel they have to prove they are the toughest. 😛
i just like fighting, never pass up an offer to hit someone...
i even like being hit now, dont get hurt that much, since the last year.
