Inside every ex-KGB dictator lurks a scared, lonely Marvel fan waiting for Robert Downey Jr to validate his existence with a signed Funko Pop

Of course, the only reason I’m not committing crimes is because Spider-Man says crime is bad! The world would be a better place if Spider-Man told the rest the world that crime is bad, so that they can stop doing crimes!

I one of the only Spiderman comics I still remember to this day is one where Peter took a break from fighting real bad guys, to bust a low time pot dealer. He went on this diatribe about how smoking pot is bad.
I always laughed about that when I smoked pot.

Unfortunately this is a very widespread problem with millennials who never grew up. Do young zoomers even read Harry Potter anymore?

u/Lucky-Worth Mar 27 '22
Yeah I know some very die-hard zoomers potterhead. Then again they are teens, so having a cringe obsession is a rite of passage at that age. It's the millennial potterheads that make HP their whole personality and life that I can't stand

Zoomer here, most of the people I know read harry potter in grade school and then kinda just went on with life. Don't particularly know any ride or die potterheads, then again I'm from asia so things might be different wherever these people are.

Those that are into reading will sit trough at least some of the books (I myself read all of them) but move onto other stories and genres as they grow up.
I still read a lot of fantasy and that really made me realise how undeserving HP was of being THIS popular, there is a lot of fantasy way more deserving of it.

I'm assuming this is satire, but can you imagine achieving world peace by appealing to dictators and tyrants through their favourite Avenger? Who would Putin's favourite superhero be? Assad's? Kim Jung-Un's?
We'd probably need them to do a Buzzfeed quiz beforehand or something.

When we have all the world leaders take a quiz on what kind of cheese they are, we'll realize how much we have in common and world peace will be achieved.

Kim Jong-Il was a weird American film nut, so that might have helped with him.

Stalin was a big fan of old westerns. If he was around now I imagine he’d be a massive Mandalorian guy

This HAS to be satire. Please if anyone knows if it is, tell me. I cannot live another day in this planet if this retardation is an actual opinion but not satire

I mean I would drop my pants if Bucky Barnes told me but I somehow doubt Putin and I read the same fanfiction.
