If you're tired enough, you cans leep through anything.

Precisely! Alan slept through the fight counting the amount of men fighting with baseball bats and spraying chemicals on each other.

Funny how I talk about Holmes when the only stories I knew about the character is from their ‘revised’ versions in a cartoon.

Nah. Must be a fast news day. They probably were on a rush and just said ‘Chemical Attack.’ Next thing you’ll know, they’ll be saying the Russians did it and it was a warning sign of an impending world war. Shocking.

I actually read the stories a few years ago. I do want to reread them at some point.

I was never fond of reading the long stories of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. I found them too ‘stretchy’ (Though I do like reading of certain lengths). I only liked the shorter adaptations in that cartoon I watched. It’s the only way I found out of the stories.

For some reason Doctor Strange's cape makes me think of the Luggage from Discworld. Even though it doesn't devour things in most brutal fashion.

Wait, what? Putin can't be the Second Coming of Christ, Trump already is exactly that according to some rather overenthusiastic (deranged is such an ugly word) evangelicals. They've got the bumper stickers to prove it, too!

Well, who needs stigmata when you can prove your divinity by getting people to buy gaudy doodads with your face emblazoned on them?
