Pfft, maybe if your postman rings twice. The mailman is the only one who's going to be getting a good workout here.

Wow really? What about the gutters? How do double page spreads come out?

Really good.

Marvel has their shit together regarding huge collections.

DC on the other hand....

What about people who buy it in the store? They have to carry it home themselves. I imagine their muscles would be buff (especially if they had to take public transit).

Do you spend a lot of time imagining these buff muscles?

Otherwise it's a ridiculous purchase.

It'll be an adamantium stand.

Is it bad that my first thought was that you were linking a TV Trope, and I was surprised to discover that you weren't Herald?

No unlike you I already have them so I don't need to imagine them on other men.

Public transportation is my only means of getting around. I live in a big city and don't own a car (nor do I have a place to park) so I rely on it. A lot of people in the city do.

Please do not hate on my extremely buff muscles.

Well, I mean, of course public transportation is okay for you people.

Canadians, that is.

I was kidding, though, I actually don't hate on public transport systems in cities like yours that actually work. Even Chicago's--outside of a little Red Line/Blue Line rivalry--but where I live now it's nothing but a poorly-run bus system that rarely seems to have the public in mind. There's actually a meeting tomorrow night about their latest "improvement plan" that actually is just eliminating more stops. :roll:

Yeah it's very useless in smaller cities and towns. My brother's town has a system and it's four or five buses that start running at 6am and stop running at 9pm. He says it's useless.

I live on or near 3 different bus routes plus a 24-hour tram service. It's ridiculously convenient.
