School Reopens

Critical Thinking

Critical thinking seems to be an art. Another common term for this would be thinking 'outside the box'. Today cognitive process lesson was indeed interesting. It actually stretched my way of thinking and this enables me to think deeper and be much more open minded.

Today's class was Great! The faci was dressed wonderfully, classmates was fun as before and ut was manageable (thanks to shahirah who taught me to study).
Got a terrible headache at the end of class after thinking too much... but all in all the day was Amazing...

Why does Superman wear his underwear on top of his clothes?

According to Superman through the Ages, several theories attempt to explain the origin of his peculiar costume. In a 1940 comic, Superman says he invented the costume himself from "cloth immune to the most powerful forces." (Look out, Tommy Hilfiger.)


A few years later, it's revealed that Superman's adoptive mother constructed the outfit from blankets found wrapped around the infant when he landed on Earth.


More recent comics state that the costume "acquired its indestructibility...as the result of being transported from the planet Krypton." Well, OK, but why does the Man of Steel dress like an '80s aerobics instructor?

If we had to hazard a guess, we'd say it's for aesthetics and nothing more. Without the red trunks, he'd look like a male ballerina in blue pantyhose. And not even Superman could pull off that look.
