Also, every time you don't cover your mouth when you sneeze, you send Aunt May closer to her grave.

Cough cough cough. Please excuse the lack of a proper post for the moment...I am a very sick little stuffed bull with a bad winter cold. Cough cough cough. Please email me some chicken soup using the comments field below.

What, you want me to get out of bed and do a real post? Oh, my aching little stuffed head! I can't do that. You know, once upon a time there was a guy, who despite being so sick that he shoulda stayed in bed:

But he didn't. And then this is what happened:

ASM #121

So there you have it: inarguable proof that getting out of bed when you're sick kills Gwen Stacy. And I won't be a part of that.

(See you in a day or two, tho'!)

Johnny Storm is an insensitive boob!

Yes he is! After all, how else can you explain this:

MTU #1

...taking Spidey to the bridge where the love of his life died? Taaaac-ky, Mister Storm! You certainly deserve it when Spider-Man lets you have it with both barrels:
MTU #147

Zing! Right between the eyes! You got him there, Pete! Now, go in for the subtle but sophisticated bon mot that will leave Johnny squirming...
MTU #147

...wha...WHOA, SPIDEY! That's going a little bit too far! Ouch!

No wonder Spider-Man wound up like this:
ASM #261

And that's why, when you're trading insults with your friends...try to stay off the comments about infant death, okay? Isn't that right, Superman?
Darn straight!
