"....Those who gravitate toward negativity, gossip, and innuendo have a sure place in society; they shall never beg for company with which to commiserate. The marketplace of common affairs is built on complaints, criticisms, and guilt." Alan Cohen, "The Dragon Doesn't Live Here Anymore".

Does this resonate with any posters over here?

"Welcome to The Supreme Adventurer
A fan website devoted to 1930's & 40's pulp hero Doc Savage!

A strange individual, this Doc Savage. Probably one of the most remarkable of living men. A genius, a mental marvel a giant of fabulous physical strength. He was literally a product of science himself, for he had been trained from birth for one single purpose in life- the fantastic career which he now followed. Every trick of science had been utilized in his training. In no sense had he led a life that might be regarded as normal. Two hours of each day since childhood had been devoted to a routine of intense exercises calculated to develop not only muscles, but physical senses and mental sharpness. All of his early life had been devoted to study under masters of trades, sciences, professions, until he possessed a knowledge that was, to the ordinary man, uncanny.
The result of this studied upbringing was an individual who was a remarkable combination of scientific genius and physical capacity. Stranger than even the man himself was the career to which his life was dedicated- the business of helping others out of trouble, of aiding the oppressed, of dealing with those evildoers who seemed beyond the touch of the law. For all of which Doc Savage made it an unbending rule to accept no payment in money, under any circumstances.

Long ago, Doc Savage had assembled five men as his assistants, five men who were world-famed specialists in their respective lines. A desire for excitement and adventure, and a profound admiration for the astounding bronze man who was their chief, held the little group together. Some men crave money, others works of art, and some go in for society - these five specialized in trouble. There was plenty of that around Doc; his path was always that of peril, danger and thrilling adventure!"

Does this resonate with you, OP? Have I discovered your secret identity?
