Batman has an awful lot of villains with doctorates.

Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Good point. I suppose there are only so many Killer Crocs and Solomon Grundys you can have before he's just abusing guys with learning disabilities.
My favorite moment from the old Batman animated show was when the rogues were sitting around telling their stories about how they almost got Batman. Actually, I wouldn't do it justice, just watch it here:

Of course there's a twist at the end that changes the moment a bit, but it was still hilarious.
That episode is both one of my favorite pieces of Batman media ever, and also an excellent example of both a "lower decks" episode and a vignette episode. Absolute gem of the whole series.
I love when the goon sees Batman in a room and walks right the fuck back out like he saw nothing.

"Something goin' on in there?"
"Nope."
Killer Croc has skin condition, not learning disability.
