Damning With Faint Praise
In the comments to Diamondrock's most recent post I ended up making some lame quip about how I think "most rational member of the Batclan" is like "Smartest Green Lantern" in that it might be true, but doesn't tend to SAY that much, ya know?
Kind of like "most patient of the Flashes", "least angsty of the X-Men", "least self-absorbed Avenger" and so on and so forth.
Since I don't have a post today, I'm inviting you to join in with me in making your own "damning with faint praise" comparison. It's fun!

"Coolest guy in the comic shop."
(Hey, I WORK there.)
"Most well-adjusted X-Man."
Verification Word: "etanduck", which is like "eat and run", but with higher velocity food.

Oop, "X-Men" was an example. Um... how about "Grumpiest Superfriend"?
