Green Lantern Stuff...
Apr. 25th, 2004 06:27 pmOkay, so you're building an interplanetary police force known as "The Green Lantern Corps". You're recruiting one person from each sector of space and giving them a ring that grants the wearer Gawd-like powers. You need good, reliable people to be protectors! People who you won't have to be worrying about if they're gonna abuse these Gawd-like powers, right?
So why - WHY!- would you recruit a guy with a name like "Sinestro"??? I mean, come ON! With a name like that, how can he *NOT* go rogue and abuse his powers???
There are certain names you just shouldn't trust in certain situations, man!
"Well all your references check out, and everything seems to be in order... welcome to the accounting firm of Schuster & Smith, Mr. Embezler"
"...And other than that, it's pretty much just you working the till all night long, alone in the store. Any questions, Mr. Goetz-Schotz?"
"Then you move the burger from the production area over to this area, wrap it, bag it, and hand it out the window to the customer. Think you can handle that, Johnny Neverwasheshishandsaftergoingtothebathroom?"
