So I'm sitting here watching the Giants/ Atlanta play-off game , and I see a Dodge commercial advertising the 'Durango'.(an SUV)

The dialogue in the commercial strikes me as VERY FAMILIAR and suddenly my attention is piqued. Now mind you, I hate commercials and routinely change the channel when they appear, but being this is the NFL playoffs, there is no other game to switch to, so I bear with it.

Having done so , I discover that 'Spider-man' gospel has permeated popular culture to a point were it has even penetrated the advertising industry. Suffice it to say, I was VERY proud! Yes, proud to be a fanboy and "get" the comic book quote reference. Yes indeed, it is a proud moment for ALL fanboys being that the last place you'd expect a CB or CBM reference to pop up would be an advertisement during one of the most important games of the NFL's NFC games of the year- especially for New Yorker's!

"With great power comes great responsibly".

This is the opening statement of the ad.

A quote we fanboy's know all too well.

Bask! Bask in the recognition of our significance in popular culture!

Ahhh, never underestimate the seemingly fecklessness of your opinion's fanboy's ... no matter how :

1) Contridictory
2) Ridulous
3) Inflammatory
4) Illogical
5) Irrationally passionate
6)...or down-right un-factually incorrect they are, because the "Big Wheel's" are LISTENING!

I'm proud of you! I'm proud of me!!!

Well done fellow fanboys, CB readers and CBM fans...you deserve a pat on the back!

Why do you use an apostrophe to show that some words are plural, but not others? If you're going to be incorrect, at least be completely incorrect.
