Everyone who knows me (Rob), knows that I'm a huge superhero fan: Superman, Batman, Green Lantern, Flash, etc. Because a couple of my co-workers have been writing emails that don't use proper grammar, or whatever they've written was in a somewhat backwards manner, they remind me of the backwards speech of Bizarro Superman (an imperfect duplicate of Superman).
So, to celebrate Thanksgiving, I send holiday wishes from the character who actually speaks that way: Bizarro Superman. He says things that are opposite of what a logical person would say. His speech is also never grammatically correct. He lives on a square Earth and things are done oppositely from the way they're done on our Earth.
(History: Bizarro is an imperfect duplicate of Superman. He was born when a Lex Luthor demonstrated his "duplicating ray" on Superman and an accident caused the ray to make an imperfect duplicate. Bizarro — later called Bizarro #1. —Bizarro #1 then used a version of the duplication
ray to create an entire world of Bizarros who now reside on a
cube-shaped planet called "Htrae" (Earth spelled backwards). Bizarro #1 and Bizarro-Lois #1 also gave birth to a child, who while
super-powered, appears to be totally human and is considered a freak by
Bizarro standards.).
So, in the words of Bizarro Superman, "Me am hope you not have a Happy Thanksgiving." :) - Seriously, enjoy the holiday! - Rob
