(15:57:56) steve: i confront it head on (15:57:59) steve: like any true super hero would (15:58:03) steve: clearly i am a super hero (15:58:08) steve: for eating ice cream and cheese (15:58:17) tammy: cause you KNOW dairy is evil (15:58:22) steve: damn straight (15:58:32) steve: just doing my part to help.... the ... little.. people. yeah (15:58:45) tammy: the billion people in china who are lactose intolerant (15:58:50) steve: yeah (15:58:50) tammy: you are a pioneer and role model! (15:58:54) steve: indeed i am (15:58:57) steve: kids should look up to me damnit (15:59:06) steve: i'm going to start smiling benevolently at people in the hallways now (15:59:49) tammy: so that they wil lknow that you are akin to a god? (15:59:56) steve: yup (16:00:04) steve: well, not a god... (16:00:07) steve: just a super hero (16:00:10) steve: i'm just like everybody else (16:00:12) steve: except better (16:00:13) tammy: like superman (16:00:20) tammy: maybe you should start wearing spandex (16:00:25) tammy: that's usually a good differentiating factor (16:00:32) steve: hmmm....intriguing idea... (16:01:14) steve: this is an absurd conversation (16:01:17) steve: i'm going to post it in my blog (16:01:23) tammy: hahahaha! (16:01:39) tammy: don't forget the utility belt!

ahhh…nothing like stroking the ego to build self-confidence. if anyone at work sees me walking down the hallways in spandex smiling benevolently at people left and right, feel free to stop me for an autograph or something.
