Bateman really does like a good broken meter. So much so, that I believe I’ve caught her waiting at one. For it to break. That’s commitment. Respect.
At first I read this as “Batman” not “Bateman.” This lead to an immediate cranial commentary influx:
- That’s not Batman, he’s way beefier.
- It might be Batgirl though, but I don’t remember if she wears pants now or not.
- Batman wouldn’t need a meter, he’ll park the fucking Batmobile any-goddamned-where he pleases.
- I bet Batman has a lot of parking tickets for A) parking the fucking Batmobile any-goddamned-where he pleases and B) because five bucks says Meter Maids find it ironic to ticket the caped crusader for double parking/being in front of a fire hydrant.
- If a building was on fire and Batman rushed into it, but he happened to park in front of a hydrant, would the firemen have him towed, put an axe through his window, or just wait it out?
- Does Gotham even have firemen, or is it just Batman with a “Hydro-Batsuit” or some shit like that? I can’t imagine that’s really part of his job description but considering everything else he does…
- I think Gotham should really form a fire department if they haven’t already.
- What do they put down for license plate when he’s ticketed? I can’t recall if he’s got a plate, but I don’t see why he needs one. “Failure to register your vehicle” is probably the least of his concerns considering how much of Gotham he destroys on a semi-regular basis.
- I would abuse the shit out of that power. “I want some In-N-Out!” VROOOOOMCRASHFIRECRASHDOUBLEDOUBLE nom
- If they do ticket him, where are the tickets sent? They can’t go to Wayne manor, that’s just a dead giveaway; some intern would put two and two together like that.
- Does Commissioner Gordon just save them up and once a month hand them to Batman in a big manila folder?
- Does Batman pay them or just blow them off?
- I would blow them off.
- He should probably pay them though, he’s got enough cash. No need to shortchange the city he’s trying to save.
- Wait, that’s too long of a word to be Batman.
- ooooh….BATEman.
- I should probably stop watching that fucking commercial.
