I realized that I was wearing a red hoodie, so I put up my hood.


I kept asking if people got the reference, BUT EVERYONE THOUGHT I MEANT LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD

Haha, that's okay. I'm not one of those prep-nerds who gets super offended when someone doesn't know a semi-known character.

I'm kind of ashamed of my choice of picture though. That's from one of my least favourite Batman story arcs ever.

Oh, Red Hood.

Funny, I did not think the reference was from Little red riding hood,
but I forgot about the second robin's name. XD

Well, Red Hood wasn't his name while he was still Robin.

His name was Robin while he was still Robin. XD

That's kind of obscure dude. Even for me. I'd only barely heard about him in some conversation and didn't really know who he was.

You should've drawn eyes on the hood and taken up a snarky attitude.

No u.


But in seriousness, I guarantee you, even a novice Comic book reader would know who he is. There's really nothing obscure about The Red Hood. If I had made a reference to how Nightwing got his name, or Sinestro's old lover, THAT would have been obscure.

Mmm...I need to read more comics. Still say he's obscure. Did the people you asked read comics?

But I's still more of a Marvel guy. Much as I love Batman and Green Lantern.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that. Many of the people I hang out with read comics, so that's why I was frustrated that nobody got it.

Obscure. I'm telling you. >_> You just don't know because you're in the zone.

It'd be like if I said "On the way 42" when someone ordered me around.

^ I don't know what that means.

The only thing I can think of is Hitchhiker's and P Sherman 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney.

Unless it's a Star Trek reference.

I don't know what I'm talking about.

That should've been "On the way 38" anyway. The price of the somnolescense. >_>

Or I could call you a Steef and ask if you've fired any live ammo recently.

I think the real moral lesson we can learn here is to drop to our knees in the rain and scream "NEMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
