Jacqneto

According to Acephalous,
"Because back in '87 he decided that the best way to reform academia was to lead the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Sure he fought the good fight once or twice. But did he do so out of conviction? Pffft. He did so because he couldn't sorbonne America until he conquered Antartica and established a homeland for Theorists. After the Soamenals destroyed Thenosha his mental state deteriorated considerably. He would deconstruct his alarm clocks with the same indifferent aplomb with which he deconstructed his lovers. Eventually he awoke in a room with no meaning at the white heart center of a sun not unlike our own. Content with the divine deconstruction of hydrogen swirling around him, Jacqneto let his eyelids fall to better await the day of his fiery rebirth."

(I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with this, just reposting it because it's hard to hang out with [livejournal.com profile] icarusdiver and her "cohort" (that's an official term in the History of Consciousness department, by the way) without Derrida coming up one way or another. (Most recently, in a revealing game of "murder, fuck, or marry".) So it's hilarious to see a comic book version of him, even though I'm not quite cool enough to know the full meaning of it--being only "honorary cohort" which is my (slightly less official) status (as opposed to my entirely unofficial and off the record nickname among them, "assassin").

Point to someone and give them a choice of 3 people (can be anyone... mutual friends, professors, coworkers, celebrities, philosophers, etc.). The person must choose one of them to murder, one to fuck, and one to marry.

Although it's frustrating to have such limitted options, it's quite fun after a few drinks... and somewhat revealing.

wikipedia has a better photo
