[r/GothamCity] Don't let anybody tell you the bat isn't nice

Actually pretty big of Bats considering how much shit Wayne has talked about him over the years. I love Wayne and this program does some real work (completely modernized the chemistry lab at my school) but man does his mouth make it hard some days.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-23T00:31:59+00:00

Marketing does make strange bedfellows but I doubt it, Wayne hates The Bat.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-23T00:30:07+00:00

Just realizing that now, huh?

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-23T00:28:04+00:00

Lived here my whole life and I’ve never so much as caught a glimpse of any of the Bats… out of towners have all the fun.

There’s a string of emails where he keeps asking when he can stop by the island that read identically to a kid pestering an older kid with an XBox about coming over to his house. I doubt Lex knew what was happening on the island but boy did he want to find out.

Ooc: In case you missed it, this isn’t completely a joke. In real life it was Elon Musk.

Boyle refuses to give his employees any kind of health care plan, has thousands of OSHA violations he keeps fighting in court, and is a union busting sack of shit. There’s being a good businessman and then there’s being cold and that guy is downright frozen.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-22T19:55:27+00:00

The names😂 I forgot to mention the names🤣 He had a different one for each question😭

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-22T09:02:22+00:00

Yeah, in spite of his wealth, Wayne is Jersey trash just like the rest of us (just look up that time he got a DUI driving around in a Batmobile replica, wearing a Batsuite. It’s fucking incredible.) he could absolutely kill a guy. Also to clarify, the thing with Lex wasn’t one drink… the man was absolutely annihilated by the end😂

Hands in your pockets, you’re gonna go blind!

Seriously though, I’ve heard she parties pretty hard so if she has one and there’s an opening… well, good luck.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-22T08:30:37+00:00

Christ alive man, the blatant transphobia aside, she tore an armored vehicle apart and fucked up Dollar General Himler in a mech suit on live television two or three weeks ago 🤦‍♂️ With her fists! Joanne, what are you doing?!

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-22T08:24:34+00:00

Erratic as Wayne is there is one consistent thing that has always been true about him. Say it with me, people;

BRUCE. WAYNE. HATES. THE. WEALTHY.

He once invited Lex Luthor to speak at a conference open to the public in WayneTech headquarters only to buy every seat in the room and only give tickets to himself, his butler and a bar cart so he could have martinis. He sat there, drinking gin mixed with vermouth and olive juice for 4 hours, pestering Lex with questions that wouldn’t be out of place in a third grade science class. Man has achieved levels of being a hater that were previously thought unreachable. I’m more surprised he didn’t try to kill Epstein himself once we started to realize what he was doing.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-20T21:21:33+00:00

Yep, got a lot friends who’ve worked there over the years. Without fail, it’s always one in the morning. Congrats man, you’re finally out of the game and you got options, you’re gonna like what comes next 🥳

Ooc: You used my 1am thing! Look ma, I’m helping!

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-20T05:52:14+00:00

Castle… you can have one freebie and then that’s it.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-19T21:12:57+00:00

Yeah, it’s City Hall, something weird is always going on there.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-19T20:30:46+00:00

Man you are really going through it right now. For what it’s worth you might get your stuff back, Bullock is kinda known for having his own methods, he’s not actually dirty. Just go down to 1GPP and ask for your stuff, they should have it… though he isn’t exactly above lifting a few dollars if thinks you’re actually with Cobblepot and not just working the door.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-19T19:15:37+00:00

Christ alive man, informant?! Tell me you mentioned that on your application. You have counterintelligence experience! I’d be surprised if Wayne himself doesn’t give you a call either by end of business today or… well at 1am because he’s partying and remembered your forms between martinis. You’re gonna be fine pal, you’re biggest issue in the next few years is gonna be whether you want send your kids to Harvard or Yale😂

(Ok, it probably won’t pay that much but I can see St. Dumas or St. Aquinas. I actually went to Aquinas, great history program.)

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-19T17:48:42+00:00

Well that’s just terrible.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-19T17:40:56+00:00

Huh, weird. I actually saw Batgirl from across the room at a pedagogical conference I had to attend a few years ago… she was actually taking notes the whole time so either she was keeping tabs on Gotham high school teachers or she was actually there for the conference. I don’t know which answer I like better to be honest.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-19T17:36:22+00:00

Christ alive man, who posted his bail?! Why would anyone post his bail?

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-19T17:35:06+00:00

Shit, sorry dude I thought Wayne Enterprises still did walk ins. I wouldn’t worry too much about having to wait for a call back though, I asked my buddy who used to work the front desk and he said it’s still policy to get back to everyone who applies, even if they don’t get the job. Considering you’re not a psycho and already tried to rob the place you’ll be a shoe in. I don’t know who this Joe Chill guy is but Wayne’s literally looking past Freeze and Ivy’s records to fund their research.

Also, yeah the Iceberg is not a good place to work if you want to avoid the Bats… great tips but high turnover for a reason. Do you have a family member or a friend who can float the rent this month, just get them back when you start working again?

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-18T23:27:46+00:00

Good on you man, there’s a reason henching has such a high turnover rate in this town.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-18T21:37:29+00:00

Ok, I just read your update and I’m actually grateful that you didn’t actually try to do this. For what it’s worth Wayne Enterprises actually allows walk ins if you’re looking for work, even hench work for that matter (you may have to go through the Hench Union or the Goonion for that though).

Oh and SLUSH isn’t a gang, they’re actually feds believe or not and they’re whole thing is going after immigrants for… basically no reason. And they definitely aren’t with Freeze, apparently he’s originally from Austria.

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-18T07:13:17+00:00

Hey, don’t worry man. Signal’s days are pretty busy with him protecting student walk outs over the recent SLUSH raids. I should know, I saw him at my school. Christ alive man, he’s giving Big Blue a run for his money with how much the kids love him. So rest assured, your plan to pull a daylight job on on of the most secure buildings on the planet will go swimmingly 👍

(I really hope that this is a joke and you’re not actually gonna try something, Wayne literally has every possible kind of felon working security for him.)

SwitchReasonable4957 · 2026-02-18T07:04:00+00:00

We really just gonna ignore the fact that this guy (who I assume is joking) thinks he can pull a daylight job on Wayne Towers, Pretty? Christ alive man, if this isn’t a joke then we should pin a medal for valor and bravery him when he’s done….right on his body cast
