A couple of things about Batman that really bug me ........

[Dr. Tweedbucket]

1. Batman being Mr. Honest and Noble :rolleyes: flat out makes up a new lie to tell Aunt Harriet everytime the Bat Phone rings. :waiting

2. Batman is supposed to mentor his youthful ward Dick Graycent who will soon be driving, so why does he speed right down the middle of the road in a wreckless fashion, many times going left of center with no regard for the rules of the road? :waiting

3. Why doesn't Robin monitor the Atomic thrusters and Turbine speed information anymore when they hop into the Batmobile? Has this been automated?

4. Why is it EVERY time when Batman skids the batmobile in from of the Gothem City Police station that the same exact 4 ladies are crossing the street in front of the Batmobile? :mad:

5. Why is it that Chief O'Hara gets on the PA to clear all exits for Batman when he is parked on the street? :huh


I bolted awake in a cold sweat last night thinking about these things :cry:

Find my responses below, and I thank you.

1. Batman being Mr. Honest and Noble :rolleyes: flat out makes up a new lie to tell Aunt Harriet everytime the Bat Phone rings. :waiting
WOW! that's right! and when he is Bruce Wayne in Commisioner Gordon's office he lies to him often acting as if Batman is a "friend" of his and not himself!

2. Batman is supposed to mentor his youthful ward Dick Graycent who will soon be driving, so why does he speed right down the middle of the road in a wreckless fashion, many times going left of center with no regard for the rules of the road? :waiting

I believe he mentors Dick Grayson, not Dick Graycent.

3. Why doesn't Robin monitor the Atomic thrusters and Turbine speed information anymore when they hop into the Batmobile? Has this been automated?

The Batmobile does not have atomic thrusters or a turbine. It is a regular gasoline powered ride. I saw it at a car show once when I was a kid.

4. Why is it EVERY time when Batman skids the batmobile in from of the Gothem City Police station that the same exact 4 ladies are crossing the street in front of the Batmobile? :mad:

Actually, it isn't. Although it is a strange coincidence that Gotham City has four sets of identical quintuplets that do always seem to be in the vicinity of the Police Station.

5. Why is it that Chief O'Hara gets on the PA to clear all exits for Batman when he is parked on the street? :huh

Because that one time Batman reduced the four sets of identical quintuplets down to four sets of identical quadruplets.

True story.

Reckless use of aerosol shark repellent in the '60's.

Aunt Harriet was Peter Parkers aunt. Not Batman's...

[A-Bone]

Aunt Harriet was Peter Parkers aunt. Not Batman's...

Peter Parker's aunt was Aunt May.

[bobcunningham]

LMFAO !

[pbmw]

Peter Parker's aunt was Aunt May.


Well crap....:bonk

[offbeat]

Why do they call it the 'Bat Signal' when, apparently, it doesn't attract any real bats? Shouldn't it be the 'Batman Signal'?


Kinda like selling a moose call that only attracts Bullwinkle.

I saw a movie that pretty much proved that they're not gay. I don't think it was an official Batman release though. :)

True Batman story.

My wife a a young hottie was working as a model at a car show in Boston Mass.
The Bat-mobile was on display and yes Adam West and boy blunder where there, they assumed that all women were there's for the taking. According to her, they were pretty slimy. She and her modeling partner told them to piss off. She said they were pretty much amazed that they were rebuffed.

He may not be gay, but I do recall he had the "anti-gag 'Deep-bat' throat spray" on his utility belt. " ;-)
