You might be right, though, because I couldn't tell if my own parody of self-righteous outrage was getting all those 'likes' on BC for the right reasons...probably it was, I suppose.

Remender's reaction was rude and stupid, but not as stupid as the outrage.

Plus, I don't even think he was responding to the 'assimilation' argument in his initial tweet, I think it was to more basic 'this is politically correct bullshit' arguments. He thought he was arguing against the right, when in fact he was under attack from the nutty left.

I like how Remender brings up the fact that Alex's view is now the opposite of Scott's view (as I pointed out at the end of the post). That one point made all the idiots who hated on Remender let out a collective, "ahhhh...my bad."

It doesn't really change my opinion of him.

Sometimes, when you drown your foes in hobo piss, it splashes on you and leaves a smell.

I remember when actors often wouldn't even read their own reviews or press, but now(adays) with twitter etc it's barely possible for people to filter out anything.

At least not many hobos were likely to be following Remender on twitter to begin with.

Boy does that remind me of the worst Greyhound bus trip of my life.

Rick Remender is a bad influence:

Yesterday when I was getting off an elevator at work, a lady was attempting to block my exit with her baby stroller. I casually squeezed past which apparently upset her and caused her to say "Excuse you" in a really snotty sounding way. My immediate response was "No thank you, I don't need to be excused."

In retrospect what I really wanted to say was "go drown in hobo piss" because fuck that chick, everybody knows that proper elevator etiquette dictates that you allow all disembarking passengers to exit the elevator prior to you waddling in.

Am i the only one that thinks the Outhouse needs a new regular feature called "Drowning in Hobo Piss"?

"Drowning in Hobo Piss" should be the official name of the official review for each issue of Uncanny Avengers.

That this is actually a thing is one of the worst things I hate about the comic community.

Wow, some people's children!

I'm sure Rick Remender keeps swimming pools full of hobo piss and invites his critics over for a swim quite often.
