Because. Superboy. Punched. REALITY.

[lady_sarai]

Well, he did. Then aradiachiba, zoe_chan and I started chatting.

You should all know this is bound to go post-modern.

aradiachiba: I have pomegranite vodka
lady_sarai: ooooooooo
aradiachiba: and black currant vodka
zoe_chan: I have all sorts of liquors
lady_sarai: I have..... none.
zoe_chan: aww!
lady_sarai: ::shifty eyes:: I should call Superboy.
aradiachiba: you should
aradiachiba: he could fracture some reality for you
lady_sarai: he can punch reality and get me liquor.

zoe_chan: ::snorts::
aradiachiba: he could, and he would do that for you ::nods::
zoe_chan: he so would
lady_sarai: That's it, where's Superboy when you need him?
aradiachiba: fictional?
zoe_chan: ::curses fictional, non-alcohol-bringing reality-punching Superboys::
aradiachiba: ::joins in the cursing::
lady_sarai: ::sighs::
lady_sarai: but.. but...
aradiachiba: ::pats::
lady_sarai: He punched reality!
aradiachiba: I know
lady_sarai: doesn't that make him real?
aradiachiba: .....
aradiachiba: ................
aradiachiba: no
lady_sarai: He PUNCHED it!
aradiachiba: I know
lady_sarai: REALITY!
zoe_chan: in the FACE
aradiachiba: ::nods::
lady_sarai: PUNCHED!
lady_sarai: like... KAPOW!
lady_sarai: bye-bye reality!
zoe_chan: ::giggles::
aradiachiba: ::giggles::
lady_sarai: so...... he's real now.
lady_sarai: because of the reality-smash.
zoe_chan: um.
aradiachiba: ....
aradiachiba: no
lady_sarai: WHAT?! STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT, I'M NOT CRAZY!!!
aradiachiba: I know you're not crazy
aradiachiba: ::pats::
aradiachiba: ::backs away slowly::
lady_sarai: but if he punched reality, it means reality isn't reality.
lady_sarai: really
aradiachiba: but he punched a non real reality
zoe_chan: And now you come to the conundrum of post-modern thought.
lady_sarai: ::blink::
aradiachiba: which makes the fake reality more fake
aradiachiba: not more real
lady_sarai: Reality punching doesn't get any realer than punching reality.
aradiachiba: because a fractured... Completely lost my traiin of thought
aradiachiba: but he, a fictional character, punched a fictional reality
lady_sarai: ..and I'm not sure if Superboy didn't just punch the reality out of my BRAIN. what did I just say?
zoe_chan: bunny
aradiachiba: therefore the finctional reality only broke apart and fractured, which makes that fictional more fictional
zoe_chan: ::nods seriously::
aradiachiba: and our reality more real by contrast
lady_sarai: Superboy punched reality. That's the story and I'm sticking to it.


Immediately after this, my iTunes began playing "They're Coming To Take Me Away" and I got paranoid.

When in doubt, just remember:

Superboy punched reality.
