"I suppose you know then, that Hollywood is planning a feature film about Radioactive Man."/ "Who's gonna play Radioactive Man?"/"I will tell you in exactly seven minutes."/"Okay, here we are, alt dot nerd dot obsessive. Need know star RM pic."
How we've advanced! What once took Comic Book Guy 7 minutes is something we expect to find on IMDB and Wikipedia.
It say the start of the Pledge is impolite, in red, and suggests a rewrite to "I plege allegience to the emblem of the united states of america." While it considers the start of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address to be polite, it suggest the alternate "Four nota and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on africa a new nation."
It suggests using the microwave to pre-heat water to boil it. I suggest getting a water kettle instead. Those boil water faster and are more energy efficient than a microwave. They also turn off automatically once the water has boiled.
