Are the other three named Bea Arthur, Rue McClanahan, and Estelle Getty?

Well, can we at least have Mexico take Ted Cruz and Greg Abbott? They can consider it a down payment.

Wait... they weren't?!

Dust off and nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

True story - my college roommate dislocated his elbow (yowch!), and after they fixed it at the ER, he asked the doctor if he'd be able to play the piano after the arm healed. The doctor said, "Sure, I don't think that will be a problem." My roomie replied, "That's cool, I've never been able to play the piano before..."

(Thinks about the current politics, climate, and general stupidity of most people.) I'd say let Galactus go ahead and consume the Earth if he wants, but he'd probably say "No thanks."

And then there's people like this father: Canada man flees with daughter, doesn't want her to get COVID vaccine (usatoday.com) He was supposed to return his daughter to his ex-wife after a weekend in November, but "decided to keep her."

It's so damn frustrating to me, with peoples' attitudes toward lockdowns and preventative measures. I think of my dad, who lived through the Great Depression and World War II. Heck, he managed to go to college at the end of the Depression, working at a spaghetti company to help pay his way while taking classes. Then having to interrupt his studies to go fight in WWII. When I think of all he had to go through... and I'm being asked to wear a mask, give people their space, and stay in my home. If that's the worst I have to suffer, geez, I'll take it. To paraphrase something Robert Fulghum once wrote, people need to realize whether something is a lump in their throat, a lump in their potatoes, or a lump in their breast.

I have to wonder whether some of these people are just pranking the anti-vaxxers. "Hey, I got it! Why don't we suggest they inject bleach!" "Ooo! That's a good one. But that could be kinda lethal. I know, how about we see if we can get them to drink their own piss!" "Yeah! And next week, we can say that eating their own poop will work too!"

You need to cut back on the drinking... Oh, not that kind of hammered. Sorry.

They could just go with The Famia. Won't take anybody long to figure out that's just an anagram of Mafia, though.

You have a cat. 'Nuff said.

He's the Anti-Tom-Holland.

The Joker, topping his hamburger with ladyfingers. Literal, lady fingers.

Remember, more US astronauts have come from Ohio than from any other state. What is it about Ohio that makes people want to leave the planet?

You stole my idea. (shakes fist in impotent rage)

Bob Greenwade had a great set of supervillains (the Castoffs) based on the characters from Gilligan's Island. I appropriated them for a solo battle with one of my players' superheroes years ago. It wasn't until Professor Makeshift pulled out the coconut cannon that the player finally figured out who they were. (It turned out to be a dream sequence, after the hero fell asleep with the TV on.) It was a lot of fun.

Both of my daughters (ages 26 and 29). They also have seen most episodes of Night Court, Danger Mouse, Red Dwarf, and Schoolhouse Rock. Though to be fair, they've commented that when they've quoted or made references to most of those shows to their classmates in the past, they've mainly gotten blank stares.

I'm inclined to say you have the right Professor. But I have to say, Mary Ann had certainly let herself go by the time that picture was taken.

"Well, at least NOW we know how a Trump presidency would have turned out."

"Hey, great to see you again. By the way, your future self stopped by and asked me to let you know that time travel causes impotence, so you may want to make this your last stop. Just sayin'."

As to this one, I actually disagree. I'd think it should be as timeless as possible, rather than geared for the here and now.

Sorry for the two-fer, but I wanted to post a new group to see what people come up with - a less genocidal variation on the current team. The Climatologist has traveled forward and seen how truly horrific mankind's influence has been on the Earth's climate. Spoiler alert: even after humankind is wiped out, the planet doesn't just bounce back in a few centuries, or even millennia. (To be fair, it was actually mankind's attempts to reverse the damage that actually hyper-accelerated it, turning the Earth into a Venus-like blazing hothouse where no life can exist. Unintended consequences, what can you say?) The only option is to remove humanity from the equation before they *truly* screw things up beyond repair. - - - - - - - - New Team: Divine Right This group of six psychics / oracles / prophets have "seen" the future and feel their technically criminal acts are fully justified based on that future. (Actually, "those" futures, as each has seen various different snapshots of the future upon which they base their criminal actions. For instance, one may have seen the growth of a mass-murdering cult, while another may have seen a company causing widespread environmental damage, a third may have seen a local politician who becomes President and starts World War III, etc.) Please have members using different types of divination / prophecy. (e.g. psychometry, astrology, tarot cards, runecasting, dream interpretation, palmistry, crystal ball visions, visions from God, etc.) I'd also prefer if their crimes didn't include mass murder, even if they feel that the ends justify the means.

Actually not so odd when you think about it - Rudolph has to wear a nose shield. Can't have him lighting up the theater of operations. NT: Embarrassing ways to ring in the New Year.

Is there a curry shop there?
