Just so you can feel like even more of a moron (if that's even possible), I present to you my original post.
"You know what makes this preview REALLY creepy?
In the preview art for "Dark Reign: The List- Hulk" with Ms. Marvel and Victoria Hand... I can *totally* see how people think Victoria could possibly be the upcoming She-Rulk! Look at her! Black hair with red streaks in the front, and a black bodysuit like She-Rulk's (torn one).
And it's a direct link between Hulk and Osborn now, so it seems plausible... if unlikely.
Anyone else notice that?"
I emphasized, in bold so you'd notice it, where I ORIGINALLY SAID IT WAS UNLIKELY.
Your original rebuttal, which just insulted my theory for no good reason, and failed to present one of your own:
"Now how much did you want to give me for that bridge? And don't forget, that offer for the swampland in Florida is still open.
What I bet will happen is Jackpot version II... wave the obvious in your face as a red herring, and then have the resolution be so ludicrous that it will feel like the ultimate insult to your intelligence...
And if they actually make this woman She-Rulk, that's gonna be just embarrassing. Picture it... a mystery where they slap you in the face with the answer already."
My response:
"And how exactly is a *coincidence* noticed on-panel "slapping you in the face with the answer"?
Try to be a little more constructive before you insult my intelligence next time. My half-serious theory is just as plausible as anyone's until more is revealed, no?"
You insulted my answer, and failed to give a proper rebuttal other than, basically, "you're dumb for thinking that."
Your response:
"Who's insulting you? If anyone deserves to be insulted, it's Loeb. And ask yourself this... do you REALLY think it's her? Is the fact that she blatantly has the same hair color as Red She Hulk all it takes to convince you?
And if you're HALF serious, why are you getting so pissy? I mean... WHY SO SERIOUSSSSS...."
Not that anyone was getting pissy. I was simply pointing out how rude you were being, especially over something so stupid.
And while we're on the subject, you're basing your theory on one thing: the fact that Domino saw who Red Hulk was (which means what, exactly?). Victoria and Dom were both wearing very similar bodysuits, and Dom doesn't have red streaks (nor does Elektra, or Thundra, for that matter, our other front-runners). So what makes your theory more plausible, really?
My response:
"Maybe it's the tone of your reply, for starters. Talk to me with respect, you'll get respect. Talk to me like an idiot, and I'll respond accordingly. Thank you.
And given some of Marvel's "twists" over the years, and some of the stupid things they've let happen over the last decade (especially in a post-Bendis world), and yeah, I can actually see She-Rulk = Victoria Hand. Worse plot points have and will continue to happen."
Nothing to comment on here, really, other than responding to your half-assed attempt at justifying your rudeness.
Your response:
"But at this point, I'm REALLY tempted to start... because from what I've seen...
... you don't DESERVE respect.
Now if you don't want to be talked to like an idiot, here's a hint... don't say idiotic things. Just a suggestion.
I mean, seriously stop and think. Has the answer ever been the first place you look? And they did the EXACT SAME THING with Jackpot... they threw a red herring in your face. but I make you a promise... if it does turn out to be who YOU think it is, I'll come back here and apologize to you personally. Yeah, I'm man enough to do that. But something tells me I won't have to worry about that.
Now my theory will hold more water. While you base your opinion on similar hairstyles and ripped clothing, I believe mine is more plausible. Domino. She was wearing the same outfit too. She uses guns. But wait, I'm not done... she also SAW WHO RED HULK WAS. So his secret's out... and what better way to silence his witness? Now unless she winds up dead, in a coma, or shows up at the SAME TIME as Red She Hulk without there turning out to be more than one, and if THAT happens, I'll STILL think she's one of them... she's my pick.
Doesn't that make more sense than basing a guess on a hair style?
At least you have the sense to see that it would be kinda stupid for this plot twist to pan out."
There you go. More insulting, of course, but at least you actually make an attempt to sell your theory. Too bad that your logic hasn't really borne out on-panel... unless Elektra turned her into a She-Rulk, LOL. How likely is that? Answer that with a straight face, and maybe I won't think of *you* as such an idiot.
My response:
"First of all, it's of little consequence who She-Rulk turns out to be. I said from the get-go that it was unlikely, but the images made me stop and think. That was all.
And what did you do? You very rudely insulted me (and are continuing to do so)... and for what purpose, exactly? For having the gall to try to make conversation on this board? I'll not make that mistake twice.
She-Rulk could very well be Domino. You have exactly two pieces of "evidence" for that: the outfit (which actually has different gloves, unless she somehow Rulked the fingers out but not the wrists... if you wanna be all nit-picky aout it), and the fact that she saw who Rulk was. And this could very well end up being true... but I sure hope that such a ridiculously obvious answer won't end up being the correct one.
Your apology, if I were to actually be right (and I harbor no illusions that it is, in case you missed that the first few times), would be less than meaningless to me. This "conversation" has just proven to me more than once over that you're just another rabid fanboy who would rather dump on people than have a civil discussion. I'd say that I tend to avoid people like you in real life, but people like you tend to spend more time leaving cheek impressions in their computer chairs and less time dealing with society like a normal person.
You telling me that my idea, such as it is, is idiotic just makes you look so incredibly rude and hostile for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON AT ALL, and I cannot express enough how fortunate I feel that I don't have to deal with you in life.
If the highlight of your day is calling someone idiotic over a stupid comic-book character discussion, you REALLY need to sit down and get your priorities straight, bud."
Check it out! I actually gave you credit for your equally-as-plausible idea! But you couldn't just take it and walk away, could you? Nope, of course not. Like every other socially-maladjusted, board-lurking fanoy, it's not enough unless you are seen as being 100% right.
How pathetic.
Anything else, dear? Or are you out of lame excuses?
