there is a story making the rounds that Starfinger has a secret little brother, who always gets into trouble and is the black sheep in the Finger famile. he never got the love and attention he deserved from his mom and dad. that was all reserved for the Star of the family. instead, all he got was the hand me downs. discouraged, he ran away and took to a life of debauchery and women, vowing to some day return to his family and put his older brother in his rightful place. he's apparently made it his new mission in life to show his older sibling, who he considers a one trick pony, that there is indeed more to life than soup. his name is StinkyFinger.

Just cos I can't think of any right now - bar the Mirror Flash (who was cool) - doesn't mean there aren't any. I'll do some research and come back to you.

But the whole point of an arch-enemy is he only exists to work in polar opposite to the hero. So a name that reflects that is all he/she can accept. It's a curse, and that's where the tragedy comes in. If arch-enemy kills hero then rasion d'etre ceases. It's practically Freudian!



Stinkyfinger, Toiletfinger & Waddlebitch? Now there's a law firm I want representing me when next I go to trial!

Oh I thought of the perfect example, Niv - the Rowdyruff Boys. Game, set and match on the archenemy with inverse name game? :)

Would you consider the Rowdyruff Boyz arch-enemies? No. Arch-enemies are chief principal enemies by definition. So the Archenemy to Powerpuff is Mojo Jojo. Thanks for playing. Do come again.

Well, nooooo, one of us is kinda missing the point. I guess I'm / we're confusing arch-enemies with nemeses. The Rowdyruff Boyz are the PPGs' nemeses as Mirror Flash is The Flash's nemesis. Whether they're the most regular bane in the superhero's life is irrelevant - they exist only as the yin to the hero's yang. My bad for confusing the two terms in type whereas in my head the distinction was clear.

The point being toiletfinger would make a great Nemesis for Starfinger (the mundane vs the celestial) whereas someone who made endless variations of 'More than Soup' would be his arch-enemy.

Therefore, pfffftttttttt!

Fine, J$, I'll give it to you on one condition- stop calling Professor Zoom "Mirror Flash".

Long Live Toiletfinger! Now who is going to take on this role and do a SF battle rap dissing the bejesus out of Starfinger?

I have seen Mikel Harrison's naked body.

The kid is a bass monster, and pretty new to home recording. So, treat him nicely and we may get him to this year's SFL :wink:

'Bout time you got your hairless ass on SF, bitch.

EDIT: Also...

well, the whole conversation initially stemmed from a discussion of starfinger's arch-nemesis... but it has kind of mutated somewhat from there...

Much like the upcoming Beck album, this week calls for a return to form on my part. Which means it's gonna be quiet, fragile, and not voted for. I was kinda sick when I recorded "Glass Eye," but I mean maybe you'll find that endearing. Also, I slapped some less hurt-me-hurt-me vocals down on a friend's track for "When it Snows." We are Silk Bikini Mussolini, and please don't forget it. Please.

Love,
Luke
