How to Be a Web Design Underwear Pervert

As noted by Cory Doctorow, Marvel and DC have filed for a joint trademark on the word “superhero”.

Meanwhile, over in Reykjavik, Andy Clarke has just finished a reprise performance of his hit presentation from South by SouthWest (where he shared the stage with Andy Budd). The presentation is entitled “How to Be a Web Design Superhero”.

Uh-oh!

Fortunately, Cory has a solution:

Here’s a proposal: from now on, let’s never use the term “super-hero” to describe a Marvel character. Let’s call them “underwear perverts” — as Warren Ellis is wont to — or vigilantes, or mutants.

I have taken the liberty of passing Joe’s transcript of Andy’s presentation through my transmogrifier. I give you:

Jessica and I are flying to Seattle tomorrow. We’ll spend the weekend with her brother, Jeb, taking in the sights and sounds.

So we’re finally starting to see some sanity in the great “music biz vs. the rest of the world” conflict.
