It does, doesn't it?

And yet I go back and play more, because once you're in and playing, it does feel like Mechwarrior. But I won't be giving them any money (mech bays are 3 bucks a pop, you start out with 4 but if you want to own more than 4 mechs... break out the credit card) until they actually come through on some promises.

Just talking about it made me a bit nostalgic for battletech--so much so, that I went andd dug out Mechcommander gold, downloaded MW:O and seeing if I can't get my hands on MW4:Mercs.

Be better if it were more counterparts, I suppose. Then some serious betting could take place.
DC has the only telepath, but then there's Rogue...hmm.

I don't know if I get this one. Is it supposed to be "no shit"? Unless I'm mistaken (which may entirely be the case) the square and square root cancel each other out leaving -shit. If that's the case, I don't really get the joke other than trying to make a simple problem look more complex than it really is.

You're close.
You can't take the sqare root of a negative number, because the square of any number is always positive (since negatives will cancel out when multiplied). In order to work around this problem, Mathematics invented imaginary numbers, which work by assigning the letter i the value of the square root of -1, whatever that might be. This is opposed to the set of real numbers, which consists of all the numbers you are probably used to thinking of.
...the square root of a negative number (which is by definition imaginary) is being squared, which will therefore eliminate the imaginary portion and render the final product a "real" number, the same way Pinocchio became a real boy.

AAAAHHHH.... shit just got real. Got it.

I get it, thanks for explaining the math and not the joke ;)

I note that Rogue's backside and Wonder Woman's front both feature prominently in this picture, Avengers-poster-style.

I would also like to note that I am not complaining.

Well, really, if we can't show their front or their back, what's left? The top of their head?

So much for THIS bar.

You know it will just come down to Wolverine and Batman after each manage to take out the other more powerful heroes because, you know, Wolverine and Batman. Then I guess we're in for an infinite fight.

Batman always wins. With preparation. We all know that he knew that they were going to be at that bar together. So obviously he has prepped for each of the heroes on the Marvel side.

I imagine it will go down something like this:
CA: "Sorry about that."
S: "No problem. Just be more careful about it in the future." (dries up puddle with heat vision)
[Everyone goes on about their business]

Nope. Superman is a dick. You can't even sing a song about him.

It's Pat Boone. He shouldn't have been worried about that in the first place.
