It's been a quarter-century since we first saw Wolverine on the big screen.

What are your thoughts on this precursor to the MCU?

People keep thinking of the tiles, but this is where I got my username.

I tried but I can't figure out the connection

It's not said in the movie, so far as I can recall, but in the novelization (and comics). The Toad's secret identity is "Mortimer Toynbee."

Ahaaa! I forgot Toad was even in this movie. Played by Darth Maul, no less

A fun fact at the time!

Hopefully you didn't forget what happens to a toad when it gets struck by lightning.

The same thing that happens to everyone else! (everything else? Eh, I'm close.)

Precisely, fellow Better Off Ted fan.

I'm famous!

Probably not many people have tagged me, but it's funny that at least two of the people who have have done so purely on the basis of me using user notes.

Back on Reddit, I met someone who proclaimed themselves schizophrenic and said that they used user notes (on discord at the time) to handle associated memory issues. I'm not schizophrenic as far as I know, but it still seemed like a good idea, so I've tried to do so since.
