Former Stars
It is not easy being a superhero. People expect you to be good looking all the time. Face to be shaven and hair to be in place. What they forgot is that we are like anyone else, we grow beer belly, we like to play strip poker and drink beer and we also like to sleep till noon.
We can't always live on lettuce and tomatoes. We need our hamburgers, tacos and also our fries. So welcome to our real world. The world where the official shape is out-of-shape.
Let's take Wolverine for example. He isn't always smart looking with nice hair neatly combed to shape like the lion's mane. It is always more comfortable to be wearing flip-flops rather than tight leather boots. Meet Wolverine who is now a retired crime fighter in his 50's.
Then there is Batman, who like any other man who owns an expensive automobile does not know how to maintain his car at tip top condition. So, sometimes he stops by the local car garage and if he is not careful, the mechanic will drop him a bomb. He maybe rich, but his mechanic is richer! If you get what I meant...
Batman after putting on the pounds is having difficulties getting into his batmobile. At the same time, he has to get bigger and more expensive tyres because this weight is putting unnecessary pressure on the poor tyres.
Then, there is Lara Croft...she just found a new job. Got herself whipped back into shape. Went for some cheap plastic surgery in Bangkok. Her new job is to model for steemit...
After some liposuction, fake hair extension, a few botox injection under the eyes and beneath the chin, a boob job that merely costs 100 SBD, her body look like a 20 year old. Of course the exception is a 20 year old does not have boobs like that.
Life Isn't Fair
Let's face it. Life isn't fair. If you are rich, you look like Donald Trump. If you are smart, you look like Einstein. Not everyone look like and has his deep pockets. We wish we all do. Then there is me...not particularly good looking, but with a pen and paper I can probably give you a few giggles and make you my friend. Adios guys.
