Ok, this will be my first Editorial! Yay!
I was extremely smashed one night, surfing through Myspace like a 13 year old girl, and I came across the "Kick-Ass" Official Myspace Page. I was really stoked because that is one of my favorite books, even though Mark Millar is lazy(that will be my next Editorial), and I started looking all over the page for amusement. For those that don't know, Kick-Ass is a comic about a guy who really dons a super hero outfit, and gets the crap beat out of him. It's kind of like a realistic take on the high school super hero craze. They are making it into a motion picture that will star McLovin from SuperBad, even though Mark Millar still is yet to pen the fifth installmen(next Editorial). The Myspace page is pretty damn funny. Here's the link:

It is basically a spoof made to look like the Kick-Ass's Myspace page in the book. It even comes equipped with the famous YouTube video and it's just awesome!
Anyways, I'm surfing around, and I come across in the comments section this nutso in tights stating, "Finally, someone writes a book about us. I inject Justice! -Entomo". So, me loving to make fun of my fellow nerds, I decide to check his page out. This clown is actually a dude in Italy, that throws on tights, sports a mask, has a Myspace page, and says(in a heavy accent) corny Super hero quotes for the hell of it! Not only that, but all of his friends are the same, and they have their very own brand of Justice League, and they supposedly "Fight Crime"! Thus, I became aware of the nerdy... yet somewhat cool craze, of R.L.S.H..
For those that do not know, R.L.S.H. is an acronym for Real Life Super Hero. These guys have been getting recongnized every where from Maxim to Jay Leno. Most of them are fat video game nerds with sewing skills, and some are skinny video game nerds with sewing skills. Some are fetish freaks, and some are just crazy as bat sh*t!
For some reason, this craze really intrigues me, and I wonder how long it will be before I take it to the next level.
...Hopefully, I'll be in a looney bin. I have a friend named Richard who dressed up as a Super Hero In training, S.H.I.T., for Halloween, and I think that is the closest I'll ever be to seeing a R.L.S.H., but you'll never know, because if I don a mask, my identity will be secret! Moo Ha Ha Ha!
But seriously folks, how has this eluded me for so long? All this time I've been making fun of people, and I never caught wind of this!?! I suck as a bully!
In the end... I can only say that I have to respect them. They put that mask on and protect us. They risk their lives, and do what must be done so that we don't have to. They patrol these streets, and fight for what is right on every corner. They follow a strict code, and never put themselves first. They... They... "Inject JUSTICE!"
Oh, who am I kidding, they're crazy as Tom Cruise. They run around in tights on the streets getting laughed at and posing for pictures. Still, I wonder, do they really fight crime? Do they really stand up for what is right in a time where the world itself is on the brink of collapse and so close to an apocalypse? There is only one way to find out! Someone needs to start up a guild of R.L.S.V.s! For real, all these melvins are running around without a purpose! I see all of the heroes, but where on earth are the villians? Where's the yang to their ying, or vice versa? The only way we'll find out if they really got what it takes is if someone more bonkers than these dudes goes out in the world and starts blowin' sh*t up! Then they'll be forced to band together and fight this menace whether they are fat, skinny, short, tall, Male, Female, or whether they inject jusice or just eject it. Until then, we will never know. They run amongst us, outcasts of society. At the end of the day, I can laugh as much at them as I want, but secretly on the inside... I envy those bozos, I really do... But then again, I do like having the ability to get laid.
I don't want to humiliate anyone, so I'ma post up some Myspace pages for the sake of "Inspiration". Just ask for them in the comments section if anyone actually reads this.
