Stemming from some debate in [the original thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3319924#post3319924), I thought I’d see what the fine folks here at Cafe thought.

His own words: “…there’s always been a lot of tension between Lois and me, and it’s not so much that I want to kill her, it’s just, I want her not to be alive anymore. I sometimes wonder if all women are this difficult…”

But he also says: “When the world is mine, your death shall be quick and painless,” and “Flappy! Good news! I’ve decided not to kill you!”

Whadayathink?

Not to say, of course, that he can’t be both. 😃
