38. (if male) Bulky (protective!) armor and a flowing cape is perfectly acceptable classic villain wear. You don't have to wear form-fitting spandex to show off your abs, so you can actually eat doughnuts and ice cream without fear of all the extra crunches you'll have to do to keep up appearances.

39. (if female) Straight superhero men make decisions with the wrong head and are easily convinced that you are just 'misunderstood' or 'had a rough childhood' or some such sentimental twaddle. String them along with skimpy decolletage and flirty innuendo and they'll let you go, convinced that their manly stank of justice is wearing you down, while you, like Catwoman, continue your life of larceny and lawbreaking *for decades* while the super-moron who is supposed to be stopping you thinks that you are 'coming around' because he 'understands you.'

But how does that work if they bill you via e-mail and simply turn off the power when you don't pay by the deadline?
