something i dont think enough speedster media mentions is that the things around them take the same amount of time to do stuff, so you couldnt like super speed rapidly interact with most any kind of average modern machine. like on a phone you cant do that, on touch screens because it takes nanoseconds just to register your touch, and on button phones bc the buttons have to register being pressed down and then display the number on the screen and theyre even slower, so really you cant text much faster than the fastest an average human could text, which i think would kill me. the same principle applies to food which i think would be even more frustrating somehow. imagine being faster than anything on earth and STILL having to wait a minute for instant noodles, even if you can prepare and cool them in tiny fractions of a second. not being able to text at super speed would kill me but waiting for food to cook would make ME kill MYSELF

It's so interesting to think about how Donna marrying young to an older man could have affected a lot of the Titans views on romance, especially cause Wally ends up in a pretty similar situation a few years down the line. Donna marries a divorced man who's 10 years older than her and Wally starts dating a woman who's 15 years older than him and still married.

And they were both 19/20 years old.

This coincidence is very likely due to the time period and how the writers themselves didn't see that much of an issue with age gaps. This can also be viewed in multiple comics including the Aquaman ones where Arthur dates Dolphin who I assume is somewhere in her 20s. And later on marries Garth. I sometimes thought she was somewhere between them in age. At some point though, Garth disappears and when he returns everyone keeps bringing up how much he's grown and that's when he starts dating Dolphin. I personally can't tell just how much of that growth is literal and how much of it is metaphorical and if Dolphin is closer to Arthur's age or his at the beginning. If she's the first then Garth would also fit the pattern I mentioned before, but thats a big stretch though.

Either way, in-universe Donna's actions signify a lot. Because marrying at her age is meant to showcase her growth and maturity which was something a lot of the Titans were striving for, but at the same time normalizes an age gap. She mentions constantly how she felt the need to grow up fast and this pretty much exemplifies that.

Ps, we should talk more about wally and donna that duo makes me sick

Recipe #4 – Two Pies and some nuts

Marvel: Does anyone want a pie?

Flash running in from the farthest part of the watchtower.

Marvel: Does anyone else want a pie?

Flash comes again.

Marvel: I caught the doppelgänger!

All the League members gather around Marvel and one Flash trapped in a magical bubble.

Hal: How did you know which one was the real Flash?

Marvel: Our Barry is allergic to magical nuts! Taking advantage of the fact that I had a coupon for two Costco pies and some magical nuts from my last batch of cookies, it was a piece of cake to set a trap for the Roadrunner.

Some laughed, but Hal and Batman did not.

Hal: Cap... where is our Barry?

Marvel: In the infirmary. He’ll wake up when the magical anaphylactic shock wears off in six to seven weeks... or days. Yes, let’s hope for seven days!
