Reply to comment by insertusernamehere51 in TIL Stan Lee made the X-Men mutants because he didn't want to come up with a reason for their super powers, instead they were just born with them. Additionally the 1963 comic was initially a flop until the 1975 reboot by Len Wein and Dave Cockrum. by jamescookenotthatone

This was THE comic when I was growing up. Only rivaled by Spiderman and perhaps Daredevil. Avengers was not in the same league in the mid80s. Funny how they are only an afterthought in this MCU stuff.

Reply to comment by PhilReotardos in TIL that Kurt Cobain got the inspiration to make Nirvana's famous song "Smells Like Teen Spirit" when Kathleen Hanna, the singer of the band "Bikini Kill" wrote "Kurt smells like teen spirit" on a board. Teen Spirit was a woman's deodorant and he didn't knew it until he was done with the song. by WonderfulWanderer777
Nah it was just poor taste
