Getting Down in the Boondocks

Well, I hope you weren't too concerned after my ramble hiatus the past few days. I know you people have more than your fair share of insanity, so I think you'll survive. Anyway, I've got one for you today. I was thinking of ways to accessorize in the event of a hostile takeover. While a T-shirt and pair of jeans works everyday otherwise, it is often wise to have a distiguishable "style" of world dominating apparel. Foremost among such clothing is, of course, the cape. Now, the cape is an often overlooked item that is really quite necessary for any sort of Superhero/villain. Sure, you can do without it, but it's not everyday you get to wear a cape! Well, it would be if you had superpowers, but anyway...

So my idea for a nifty Super Villain would be "Society Man." For those who don't know, society is one of many forces that I have to contend with everyday (others being Vishnu, the word "should", apathy, insurmontable love, a manual car, trying to focus in chemistry, the continuing war of my mind vs. my heart, you get the point). But society holds a particular spot in my ever growing lists of things to give a severe fingerwagging too. Anyway, as "Society Man" I would dress in solid black, except for a white cape, or solid white except for a black cape. It would be satirical in that society sees too many things in black and white and won't change, but it would also look snazzy. At least I think it would. But I have no fashion sense or any sense for that matter, so...um...tough grahm crackers!

Once properly outfitted, I could woosh around telling people how wrong they are but then fly away without presenting any reason why at all. It'd be quite amusing. Did I mention I'd get to wear a cape too? There are plenty of other things Society Man could do, if you think of any post em. If you don't, then think of what superhero/villain you'd like to be and your kickin' threads(you can always change, it's not permanent...).

Well, that's about it for the day. You have something to do. I always have something to do. So with my mission accomplished, I'll run off into the sunset shouting "Watch TV! Books are for squares! Taxes are Bad! Escape from Life! AWAY!!!"
