Doctor Doom: Well, At Least Things Can’t Get Any Worse
November 18th, 2008 by Jeff Simmermon
If you’ve read this blog for any time at all, you’ll know that me and David are suckers for brightly-colored comic-themed street art. Particularly if there’s a visual non sequitur involved. Like this poster I saw plastered around the streets of Philadelphia this weekend.
It’s an image of Marvel’s Doctor Doom charging toward the viewer with the phrase “Well, at least things can’t get any worse” superimposed over top in bright pink text …
Pretty much perfect, I think.
Although it contradicts the Simmermon family motto, which I swear I am not lying about. My dad always says
You know, Jeff, we have a saying. “Things go on like this for a while, and then they get worse.”

Your dad sounds like a hoot. Sort of the opposite of “this too shall pass.”

Although I did not read this on my actual birthday when it was published, I still choose to consider it a special birthday message (as well as one to live by).
