Why Postmodern Barney hates comic books

Bookslut blog had this link and I --

Well. Apparently all comic book fans think alike (also, I appear to have misplaced my penis, which PMB assumes is a necessary attribute of comic fannishness), and that makes them racist, homophobic, and intolerant of change. But it's really not our fault, because we probably have Asperger's or some mild-spectrum autistic attributes. Which is "not to say I’m trying to pathologize super-hero fans and their behavior." Really, PMB? Because I'm sort of interested in what trying on your part would look like.

Some things really do get better.

I just discovered I can get the New York Times Science, Health, and Circuits sections; Miss Manners; the Style Invitational; and Gene Weingarten's hilarious Below the Beltway column syndicated to LJ. What with Salon, Slate and iocaste giving me my political news, I may never need to touch newsprint again.
