My Origin Story


Once upon a time, a group of teenagers worked at a swimming pool. It was not a very big swimming pool and the teenagers were not the most professional lifeguards to ever don the whistle, so there was plenty of downtime in which they got into their fair share of hijinks. Sometimes, it was grilling a doughnut to look like a hamburger and serving it with ketchup to a hapless coworker. Sometimes, it was leaving the premises to buy a staff Slip 'N Slide. Sometimes, it was just seeing which bottles would explode when struck with a wrench.

Then, in the summer of 2005, a movie was released that launched a debate that would last the entire summer.

Batman Begins.
