This last June, I was visiting in-laws in Pasadena with my wife. I excused myself for an afternoon to go comic shop hunting (something they look at me weird about) and ended up in downtown Hollywood. I was driving by a Subway restaurant and did a double-take because I saw Superman pacing back and forth inside the Subway. For a second I thought I was seeing things or going crazy. Turns out I was probably seeing this guy.
I always wonder what people think of me and my comic book interest (especially when I find a Superman reference working its way into one of my sermons, again), but in the end I see someone like this and realize that we've all got a long way to go before we fall off the deep end.
Hi. My name is Thomas. I like Superman and the funny things about him. I'm especially fond of things like Krypto and Mister Mxyzptlk.* This is where I put my thoughts on it all so I don't bore my friends with them.

I was actually finding him kind of endearing, in an "he's just a bit excentric way" until he got to:
"Superman's the greatest super-hero because he has REAL! SUPER! POWERS!"
Scaaaaaaaaaaaaaary.
And, no, you're nothing like him. Sleep well. ;^)
Best,
J.

This is like watching Reno 911. Tommy, you don't come off like this Superman guy. Not. At. All.
