For Great Justice!

I saw Ghost Rider last night. I was a fan of the comic when i was a kid, and liked the move. I wanted more out of it, but I think its a good start. I hope to see more of it in the future.

The Ghost Rider has a power called the 'Penance Stare'. He looks into your soul and sees all the pain you've ever inflicted on the innocent and makes you experience it all at once. I always liked that power. Vengeful Justice that gives you what you completely deserve.

I'm at work today, and dealing with something freakin stupid. I don't want to go into details because I don't want to bad mouth clients of the company ;) But during one of my bouts of swearing at the screen it occurred to me. Man we need some kinda Ghost Rider power for the stupid. Just like the Penance Stare only instead of the pain they inflicted to the innocent... its the pain their stupidity has inflicted on others around them. I would pay good money for that kinda power.

I wouldn't use it wisely either. I'd use it all the time. Drive Thru, Waiting in line at the post office, the bank, the movies.... No one would be safe. This power should only be used on the chronically stupid, but I would not discriminate. But considering my luck, I'd catch myself in the mirror one day and end up zapping myself. I've had my share of stupid moments. And zapping myself with a power that makes you experience the pain that others feel for your stupidity is pretty stupid in itself. And that would give me pain... which inflicts more pain ...and more pain .. it would cause some kinda stupid feedback loop and i'd probably explode in some stupidity overload.

But then if i as stupid enough to zap myself I'd deserve it. :P
