    Flash in Lex’s body is leaving the bathroom
    Dr. Polaris: Ahem. You gonna wash your hands?
    Flash-as-Lex: No… because I’m evil.

    Flash-as-Lex: My fellow bad guys! I, Lex Luthor, your leader, will speak now about my, Lex Luthor’s, plan. My villainous, villainous plan. Question the plan at your peril! Uh… any questions?

    Lex-as-Flash: If nothing else, I can at least learn the Flash’s secret identity! pulls off mask ...I have no idea who this is.

    I should rewatch episodes of this more often!

    My brother always used to watch that show, and I watched maybe three episodes with him. The Lex/Flash body swap episode is the only one I still remember specifically, because even without much background, it was hilarious.

And I guess the crazy thing is, the electricity from the power line somehow kept their nervous systems ‘alive,’ so they could feel the lava.

    “Robert Pattinson has shocked the entertainment industry by staying with his vital, strong-willed and talented girlfriend Kristen Stewart.”

    Not sure if sincere or sarcastic.

    Because three words when you think of Kristen Stewart are “vital’, “strong-willed”, and “talented”.

    ^This sounds more like something from one of those gossip magazines.

    And I quote: “He stared down at the label as if deep in thought about the meaning of Cheerios.” – an k-pop fan fiction where this guy was getting high on drugs.

    No, it’s not some dirty fan fiction. Just a k-pop version of Doctor Who where the Cheerios guy basically drives a bus all over time and space and trying out just about everything, including drugs and cinnamon rolls.

    Well, she’s alive, so I suppose a sense of the word “vital” works.

    And given the amount of hate she gets for being somewhat anti-social, “strong-willed” seems acceptable.

  43.  

    I still hold that she’s a decent actress as well (though I haven’t seen much of her recent non-Twilight stuff).
