So, this is pretty random, but would you have 7 hours available today to cruise on down to Toronto and play Twlight Imperium (a big-ass board game, kinda like MOO sorta) with Doug and I and a buddy o' mine? I'm missing my potential 4th player, and 4 would be better than 3.
I totally would, but the wife & I weren't having our Christmas party tonight. I'm gonna be tidying and setting stuff up and turkey cooking for the next 6 hours.
The point is that good satire depends on verisimilitude. Why bother using Dr. Doom at all if you're not going to spoof him in a way that reminds readers of the actual Dr. Doom?
That's your problem, Bucky, you're approaching this as if it were good satire. I mean, anyone with half a brain would've been tipped off in the first place that the concept of Doom in a Homecoming scenario was not going to be "good satire".

Date: 2005-12-03 04:38 pm (UTC)And Doom never went to a Homecoming either, so what's your point?
no subject
Date: 2005-12-03 05:50 pm (UTC)That seems pretty obvious to me.
