CrudeVileTerror Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Some times you just need a coping mechanism to get you through the day. Especially when Nemesis replaced your aunt with an automaton doppelgänger . . . AGAIN. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snarky Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 I was in a farm last night getting PL'd on a new Sentinel (wish me luck, hard turn from Bruting) got 1-41 in a couple hours. while I'm sitting there bored out of my skull I comment to one of the other door sitters. "This is what the average Paragon City citizen deals with everyday. Standing around watching mobs chase super and battling it out on the streets." Maybe Shalice can set up some sort of mental health support system for Paragon? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Of course now there are a couple. But when I read the OP I instantly thought of Local Man from back in the Before Times. Not someone that I knew, just a name from the forums that I'll always remember for basically winning the Word-Play-In-Toon-Names Championship. Anyone seen them around HC? 1 You see a mousetrap?

Doomguide2005 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I have not. I remember them as well. I always get an extra smile recalling how our family always joked about a radio station we heard while driving on vacation one year --> "a local man was found shot in the woods" and how we always wondered about what part of their anatomy was 'the woods'? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorDitko Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I always wonder about the sanity of citizens who continue to reside in Paragon City who aren't secretly super-heroes. I mean, stick around for the chance to be bitten by a radioactive super-hero, trained by an Antique One, finding a Mallet of Destiny, or building your own suit of titanium armor, but at some point, you have to realize that won't be happening, and the smart thing to do is get the heck out of Dodge! 1 Disclaimer: Not a medical doctor.

Sailboat Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I remember Local Man fondly. His guides can still be found online. There's a tradition of naming characters with an eye to NPC or enemy chatter. I've seen things like "My worst enemy! A tiny kitten!" and it never gets old. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not owning an Xbox with which to practice, I am the least dangerous among them, and jokingly go by the name "Gandhi". Another uses the handle "A Small Child". The game obliges us with statements like "A Small Child killed Gandhi", or occasionally "Gandhi killed A Small Child". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
