A long while back, Nimrod sent me a link to some stand-up routine with the premise “I was the Superfriends’ filipino maid”. The butt of the jokes was the man in the orange shirt. Apparently, he wasn’t amused:
Aquaman, King of the Seven Seas, Has Fucking Had It With You, Man. (at McSweeney’s Internet Tendency – see also Back From Yet Another Globetrotting Adventure, Indiana Jones Checks His Mail and Discovers That His Bid for Tenure Has Been Denied).

First of all, the stand-up routine, by Rex Navarrete (www.rexnavarrete.com, duh), is called “Maritess vs. the Superfriends” and it has a flash cartoon that goes with it:

The routine itself is not that hot, nor is the Indiana Jones bit, but the Aquaman bit brought me close to tears. Dammit, I do remember that orange T-shirt. And I should be wearing it more. And not just on Wednesdays either.
