Myron: Now, I will be the first to admit, being a sidekick isn't all that glamorous. You have to basically do whatever the "main" superhero says, you get cropped out of a lot of newspaper photos, and you frequently have to wear tights with boots.

I would, on the other hand, much rather be a sidekick than a sidekick that believes he is a superhero, which is basically what I was when I was in the Beatnik Squad. (Plus, Triple Threat is much easier on the eyes than Elizabeth...)

So save the glamour for the other guys. I'm perfectly happy picking up dry cleaning and making sure I set the Tivo to record the news for Triple Threat's reel.

Because sometimes? You can see a corner of my sleeve.

Myron: Hey everybody. I just finished updating the Triple Threat blog "Triforum" and thought I would update over here. I've been working as a sidekick of sorts for the past week or so, and it's going pretty well.

We've been fighting a lot of villains lately. There was this one guy who had taken over the City museum. Standard villain thing, right? His name was the DiStiller, and he's a Ben Stiller themed supervillain. I mean, usually when a guy takes over a museum it's so he can steal the world's oldest clock because he's a clock themed villain. This jerk broke into the place just as a marketing tie-in for A Night in the Museum. Triple Threat said it was pretty much the worst villain she's ever beat up. I said that I bet she would hate to "meet the parents" of that guy.

And how we did laugh. Things are great.

Myron: So, the site has been redesigned.
Elizabeth: The new site is simpler. I like it.
Myron: I think it looks pretty good. I partic- What?
Elizabeth: As you know Myron moved out, so we are currently blogging by satellite. This results in a slight delay as we try to- I was just saying-
Myron: Yeah, I like it too. I like that-
Elizabeth: Right. I know.
Myron: And I'm not going to move back, either! I'm free now, and I- What?
Elizabeth: You already. You already said that.
Myron: What?
Elizabeth: Hang on- I'm-what?

Myron: Elizabeth goes through many different modes during our friendship. Sometimes she likes me and sometimes she doesn't. Today she doesn't like me very much.
Elizabeth: Myron. Today you ripped down the living room drapes with no explanation given beyond your shouts of "I'm a pirate! Arrrrrr!"
Myron: Well, at the time these were the correct circumstances to do such a thing!
Elizabeth: There are no correct circumstances to destroy part of our living room!
Myron: Oh! So when I'm a pirate I'm not allowed to destroy our material possessions, is that what you're trying to tell me?
Elizabeth: A: You aren't a pirate, and B: Yes, that is exactly what I'm trying to tell you.


Myron: Larry the Cable Guy was right, women are different than men.
Elizabeth: *sigh*

Myron: So, currently Elizabeth and I are competeing in a battle of wits over who is more beatniky.

Elizabeth: How is the fact that you and I are fighting any different from any comic strip, animation or blog entry that you and I have ever interacted in.

Myron: I see your point, but this is the first time that there has been a scoreboard involved.

Elizabeth: I withdraw my argument.

A POINT FOR MYRON.

Elizabeth: We don't actually have a literal scoreboard, and I know that you are aware of this.
Myron: Quiet you.

Myron: Hey! It's Friday the 13th!
Elizabeth: Thank you very much for yelling that directly into my ear.
Myron: Must be all that bad luck you have! Remember the time your mirror broke?
Elizabeth: Myron, that was becuase you broke it. Every single one of our blog entries discusses you doing something stupid. Now lets talk about something interesting. Arianna Huffington has a new blog.
Myron: I don't know who that is.
Elizabeth: She is an important person, thusly, it is not surprising that you have never heard of her.
Myron: You're a jerk.
Elizabeth: Must be all that bad luck that you're stuck with me, huh? ;)
Myron: Oh, good Lord! Smiley!
Elizabeth: Happy Friday the 13th everybody.

Myron: Happy New Year's everybody! 2006! Woo!

Elizabeth: Myron and I have made a few New Years' resolutions. I am going to try and finally make my way through that anthology of Russian literature I purchased.

Myron: And I am going to learn how to read.

Elizabeth: Additionally, Myron and I are going to do our best to start being more Beatnik-like, Elizabeth said, carefully plugging the newest comic strip, to be found in the comics section.

Myron: Well done.

Elizabeth: Thank you.

Myron: Go read it.
