Watched the movie the Watchmen. Couldn’t help but notice the similarities between slowtwitchers (triathletes) and the Watchmen (crime fighters/superheros).
The Watchmen hide behind a mask and only a few people know their ture identity. We hide behind our usernames and I wouldn’t know most of you if I ran into you in the street.
The only friends the Watchmen have are other superheros. Most triathletes hang around other triathletes.
The Watchmen have cool outfits and headgear. Triathletes like to wear tight suits, funky helmets and eyewear.
The Watchmen are into their gear and name their vehicles. How many of us name our bikes and tinker endlessly in the basement on them.
The Watchmen have their supreme being (Dr. Manhattan). We have slowman.
The Watchmen are self absorbed, egotistical jerks that think they know everything. Triathletes…
So what I want to know is…
WHO IS WATCHING THE SLOWTWITCHERS?
P.S. That is cappuccino flavored gel, not blood. I faint at the sight of blood so I’m no superhero.
P.P.S I know some of you won’t get this. I am just trying to have fun.
Haven’t seen the movie yet, but it is on the short list (not easy to convince my wife to see these kinds of movies … and comparison to slowtwitch/triathletes surely won’t help either!)
It was a pretty good movie, even if it was a bit longer than it could have been. Ending dragged a bit, but was good “That was always the difference between us, I never compromised even in the face of Armageddon.” OR something to that effect.
