Quoth Geek King View PostNah, he flew fine; it was the landing he had trouble with. He lost the instruction manual before he read that far, you see.
But I was talking more about how the suit is what gave him the powers, unlike with Superman, who was born that way.

Quoth Amadan View PostMind have you never seen a packet of peanut M&Ms - "Warning may contain nuts".
It's right up there with the "do not sleep in" signs on dumpsters and cardboard compactors that can squeeze over a TON of the stuff down to a 5-foot high bundle, or the flimsy plastic paint tray on a ladder that says "not a seat" >_<

The warning was on a BATMAN cape.
I could understand some imbecile thinking that a Superman costume could give him the ability to fly in any direction other than straight down, but Batman can't fly to begin with...

While technically he can't actually fly, he does have glider capes, and I could totally see someone who wasn't quite all there, or was otherwise just an idiot thinking that they could do the same thing with a costume.

As far as the peanut thing... I remember a few years ago I bought a jar of peanuts that were clearly labeled PEANUTS, and even had the peanut guy with the top hat, cane, and monocle on it too and a warning label. Warning: Contains PEANUTS. Really?? You mean there's PEANUTS in a jar of PEANUTS?

That's a particular type of sink plug, which can let the water out while still catching vegetable bits, and those can then be tipped out without having to root around in the drain.
Instructions for fitting it would potentially involve removing the original drain fitting and replacing it with one that exactly fits the new plug - which is a borderline plumber job (it's easy enough if there are screw fittings and a bit of DIY know-how). With a standard drain fitting, there's nowhere for the catch and it wouldn't seal properly.
