What if Archie and Clifford the Big Red Dog are in the same universe?

...cleh, there's all ready a teenage witch in it, why not?

And in the CW version, Ms.Grundy is a young woman...even though there was never any complaints about her age, unlike say Spider-man where the age difference between his parents and aunt/uncle wasn't something unrelatable to a modern audience.

And Archie is a kid who was in juvie for a while, Jughead is an emo kid, and either one of the other kids has an eating disorder! KNOW THE STUPIDITY THAT I KNOW!

BUT-its directed by the same folks who did Arrow, so MAYBE it'll be good.

To be honest, Peter's elderly aunt always bugged me even when I was a kid. Apparently Ben was supposed to be significantly older than Peter's dad.

I mean, my husband is 36 and has a 17 year old brother (same parents even)soooo.

Also I'm pretty sure stienman's kids are going to have a pretty big gap between oldest and youngest by the time they are done. ;)

stienman's kids are going to cover 7 generations once they're done.

Then one will have to move to the other side of the world to get out of the presence of god, because apparently god is everywhere except for a few miles away.

Y'know, that reminds me, in Chinese, there are several versions each for "aunt" and "uncle", depending on which side of the family they're on, and whether they're older than your father/mother, and whether they're blood relatives or if they married into the family. In the Chinese translations for Spider-Man, Peter refers to Aunt May as 審, which means "an aunt who married into my father's side of the family, but is younger than my father."

So... I guess in the Chinese translations, Peter's parents had him when they were REALLY old.

Should Daredevil count as a Mutate? I feel he should, his radar-sense ain't natural even for a blind dude.

He's an Altered Human. He's not a Mutant (power did not manifest at puberty), a High-Tech Wonder (doesn't require tech), an Alien (he's Terrestrial), nor a Robot (he's a Homo Sapiens).

So...yes to being a mutate? I mean half of Spidey's villains were normal dudes before being scienced and got their abilities, Daredevil is pretty similar in that regard.

Those aren't mutants. A mutant, as defined by the genre, isn't changed by an outside force, his DNA was different all along and his powers manifest themselves as part of puberty. AKA the "X-Gene" (as in X-Men).

Normal kid until one day EYE LASERS OUTTA NOWHERE because DNA = mutant.

Normal kid until one day SPLASHED BY UNKNOWN CHEMICALS or BIT BY RADIOACTIVE SPIDER = science origin/altered human.[DOUBLEPOST=1476914559,1476914258][/DOUBLEPOST]Also I just noted you used the word "a mutate" instead of "mutant," which I didn't catch before. Some people use "a mutate" to be differentiated from "a mutant" in that they were "mutated" by some outside force, but that just invites confusion if you ask me.

So my son was supposed to get a modification to his geometry project so that he only had to do half of it. Of course, my son either didn't pay attention when he was told this or immediately forgot. On the upside, we got an extension on it until Friday/Monday so he won't lose points on it for it being late. Of course, he's already done all of the work for the rough drafts, so my husband thinks he might as well just do it all at this point, since he has extended time. Easy for him to say since by the time he gets home from work I'm already on hour 4 of trying to get my son to do homework. :p

Also, trying to get my daughter to read her book for her monthly book report is giving me fits as well. She has no real excuse other than flat out laziness.

I had my first meeting tonight with a personal trainer (budgeted, by the way). Tonight was my "find your maxes" night. My legs are fine but my upper body is fucking weak as shit. I used to be able to bench 250 pounds and now I'm at about 115. Good lord. But I'm going to get there with a guy named Andrew pushing the shit out of me to get stuff done. And I'm starting my food diary now.

Say goodbye to fat Dave. Fat Dave now has support again.

One dark night, a NASA probe returning from Venus crash lands near the wilds of Long Island and unleashes a radioactive curse upon the nearest living creature, a rabid weasel. Unbeknownst to the innocent residents, this mutating menace transforms into an invincible fiend, stalking the residents in a terrifying quest to satisfy its hunger for human flesh.
