Remembering the great Maurizio Pollini
Legendary pianist Maurizio Pollini defined modern piano playing through a combination of virtuosity of the highest degree, a complete sense of musical purpose and commitment that works in complete control of the virtuosity. His passing was announced by Milan’s La Scala opera house on March 23. Read more >>

That could have been worse had he been dumb enough to sneak up on a sleeping tiger.

That's nice attempt at an owl cake you've got going there.  Good job.   *maniacal laughter, and actually out loud.*  (there's no maniacal laughter smiley to go with that)





I had another pic, but I'm just going to bump up two levels and save everyone some effort.



Yes, that's a cake.

Looks like skyscrapers down there on the right.  But there wouldn't be a city like that that close to a mountain.  And it looks like he's sitting.  So he's either crouched awkwardly, sitting on a plane wing, or something like that.  Or there's one skyscraper that's way taller than the rest? 

Looks pretty smug about sitting there too.

Except.... Wouldn't you think Superman has a super immune system and wouldn't get drunk at all?  Or maybe it take a zillion bottles to get him drunk?  Or maybe he gets super drunk?  With everything he's super-endowed at, why is drinking "normal" for him?  He's an alien after all.  Why is alcohol affecting him exactly the same as a human?  For sure, he's not human.    Whatever.  ::)

So... the fact that he's invulnerable to bullets (technically a man of steel), yet can move around freely, faster than any normal man can and can even fly...



...and YOU question why he gets drunk???



This is why I don't get into arguments with comic book fans - they assume that physics just doesn't exist.

it's called consistency...
Superman's metabolism (his cells work crazy fast) can break down any sort of toxins at such a rate that he wouldn't even feel its effects. It applies to alcohol too. It wold actually tons and tons of alcohol to get him tipsy. XD

FFS, I'm not saying that I care about science in fantasy/supernatural/sci-fi settings. I'm saying that even if your story requires 'suspension of belief', you still have to maintain a sort of logic consistency within the story. If the author makes a mention of Superman having an extremely high metabolic rate that prevents him from being affected by human food/drinks/poisons/toxins etc, then the same should apply for alcohol. Though to be fair that would just be a little plothole and I don't think anyone would care about if he did drunk, unless they're pedantic.

 As for superman's ability to fly, it depends on the series. Last one I read said something about him having the ability to alter gravity fields or something, a weaker form of telekinesis.

There he goes....





That means in the movie he either went through a lot of bottles or... He was only acting like he was drunk.  Or maybe it was the placebo effect.

Seems to be a common superhero question.  Apparently if he's getting everything from our yellow sun, he doesn't need to eat, breath, sleep, and alcohol wouldn't affect him.
