You enter a phone booth. You take off your armor. You take off your pair of lenses. You take off your shirt. You take off your hat. You feel invincible!

You exit the phone booth. The newt drops a glowing green stone. You feel deathly sick.

There must be a reference I'm not getting?

Superman. In the comics, Kent always changes into Superman in phone booths (for some crazy reason; even though it's lightning-fast, it's still quite visible and quite obvious to someone watching what actually happened). But anyway, . Although the should be reflected in the gravestone name, possibly in the form of a pun. G. Last edited: Fri, 28 Aug 2009 04:15:36

wtf, why didn't it display my < / rant> (extra spaces intentional) pseudo-HTML tag? Crazy text parser! edit: still doesn't display it... looks like the comments section will display HTML. I did not know this. I feel self-knowledgeable. edit after extensive testing: looks like a hr is about the only thing it displays. Oh well. Last edited: Fri, 28 Aug 2009 04:29:21

To be fair, this is really more of a :wtWoD joke than a plain old : joke.
#10	slowpoke	Fri, 28 Aug 2009 19:54:22
:wtWoD perhaps, but to me the joke is that the newt always knows, no matter how buff you are the newt always knows.

The newt was crowned Hand of Arnee?
#12	Anonymous	Sat, 29 Aug 2009 02:18:27
He should be called Dudleyman
