Schafer: Everyone knows Batman is the best superhero. [Student], who's the best superhero? Student: I don't really have an answer to that except that it's not Batman. Schafer: But Batman is the only one you can reasonably aspire to be; he doesn't have any special powers. Student: Iron Man also doesn't have any special powers. Schafer: ... yeah, and his suit is cooler. That's fine.

And you can tell it's a river because it's blue. Student: [Laughing] Schafer: Yes, [Student], laugh. It's a joke; it's funny.
