I never said my name was original, it's a biblical name. It's very common, they're a lot of people named Michael. Actually, I'm named after my Dad too so it's more traditional for me.

What I meant was copying names from a book u like isn't being original, it's copying. Same instance with my name. Thalia isn't a common name... it's pretty is cool, but it isn't original.

Greek name for a daughter, Latin name for a son. If you're implying a DMC connection, I assure you there isn't. 😛

Considering the name Thalia existed long before said books in ancient Greek texts, the author of the books is copying it as well. Originality as far as names goes is long dead. 😛

I was insulting his lazy unoriginal parents, not him. 😛

Actually I just think Nero is a terrible name.

Eh, people have used worse....Renesmee for example. And I dun know, it was just a name preference from Roman emperor names. Better than, say, Caligula or Titus wouldn't ya say?

I think Titus is a cool name for ancient times, I couldn't imagine calling someone Titus today. Nero is an okay name

Problem I have with the name Titus is it has the word "T*t" in there and it could easily be pronounced wrong and made fun of.

I'd go with Max for a roman emperor name. Short for Maximinus.

There's the matter of me not really caring for the name Max though, no offense to ScreamPaste of course.

I wish I had that Law and Order sound effect recorded on something that I could just carry around with me. Every time I step into a room or somebody yells about something I can just press a button and play it.

I'd do similar things with a rim shot, cash register noise, and possibly a "Hulk Smash!" recording.

Cell phone?

Don't own one.

Buy one.

An excellent idea. I'm glad super heroes get paid such hefty salar--oh, dammit.

Get a job.

Don't hate it. Just don't particularly care for it. 😛

And allow crime to go unpunished? Never.

Are you under the impression that a crime fighter can't have a job?

Depends on if he's as full time as me.
