Funny Pictures Thread. It begins again

Reminds me of high school. "You're always by yourself. You're a smart kid, why don't you hang out with the nerds?" "Because they're neeeeeeerrrds"
I did the tactic of hanging out with different groups for as long as I could stand them. The stoners were the easiest to get along with; even though I did not do drugs.
 
Bruce Wayne does all these things in the comics. Wayne Foundation is pretty much all about this, and one of the largest donors to Arkham Asylum to boot. Wayne Enterprises has programs in place for hiring ex-cons so they can better reintegrate into society instead of falling back into crime.

Bruce Wayne literally funds...

- Homeless shelters, with work programs for those who want to get out of the system.
- Half-way houses, with the same so folks can get out of the life.
- Orphanages and Foster Family/Adoption programs
- Troubled Children's Homes
- Scholarship programs for kids in both of those systems
- Schools in low income neighborhoods
- Low Income Healthcare options for certain parts of the city (like Skid Row), including mental health services

... and that's before you consider the aforementioned Wayne Enterprises ex-con friendly hiring policies and his continued Arkham Asylum donations (though I doubt he'd continue that if he knew what they actually DID there). That's not considering the "Batman visits" he gives to guys who legitimately want to get out but are having a hard time. That's not considering all the god damn fund raising Bruce does when he's not working ether of his two jobs OR the countless personal visits his does to ALL of these places to make sure everything is in working order.

It's a wonder Wayne Enterprises can stay in business!

I just want to say that I love these.

"Ah! Batman! How did you get in here? Please don't hurt me!"
"Oh, I'm not here to hurt you...this time. But it's up to you to decide whether that changes the next time we meet."

A few of these "counseling sessions" with the right people at the right times can bring down an entire bad guy organization with minimal effort. It's like social Kyoshu-Jitsu.

At least in the movies it was pretty much stated that the charities the Wayne family runs were just about the only thing keeping Gotham from being unsalvagable.

Sure, he does them now, because that criticism of him is already decades old...
 
At some level it falls into the category of "it's a guy who dresses like a bat to fight crime." Not to mention he's generally portrayed as somewhat insane.

He's done it for ages. Hell even in Batman 66 he would use his wealth and influence as Bruce Wayne to better society, so it's not even a comics thing. Much like Cinema Sins that "joke" only works if you have no knowledge whatsoever of the subject. So I guess it's funny to someone whos only knowledge of Batman is a movie poster.

You're going to have to go deeper if you really want to prove your point.
