Real Life Superheroes: Tothian Strikes Back!

STOP THE PRESSES!  The man, the mystery, the enigma, known as SUPERHERO has spoken!   

Here at Ration Reality, we take threats very seriously. Very seriously indeed. And all the moreso when the threats come from a superhero!

As a result of some of our recent posts, exposing the subculture of underwear perverts (these can be found HERE and HERE, and as always, thanks to contributor Hurricane Sluttina for writing the original piece), there’s been some bad blood between us at Ration Reality and the league known as the HEROES NETWORK. Sadly, after an honest attempt to open a dialogue with them, Bagel and I were both banned from their site.

This is the email that I received:

Bagel received a similar one, and it appears that Tothian would prefer to save the really harsh language for use on girls.

(note from bagel: I didn’t even post anything on the board! I just registered so I could see!)

Now, this brings up a couple questions. First off, who the fuck is Tothian and why is he threatening us? And second, this \\&.quot;Nostrum\\&.quot; that he’s threatening us with: who (or what) the fuck is that? I’m not entirely sure how to pronounce ‘\\&.quot;’ so I’m going to operate under the assumption that it’s a secret title known only to the true initiates amongst the ranks of the Real Life Superheroes, and in my fantasy world I’m pronouncing it ‘click-click-cha! quot-ski!’. Of course, altnernate theories may be be entertained as well, like the one that says that Tothian may simply be a tremendous fucking twat that doesn’t know how to format text in his email, and that he was actually attempting to write this: “Nostrum.” Even this is unclear, though … is “Nostrum” a quote? Or is it a person or a thing? Regardless, it doesn’t sound very scary: Nostrum simply means ours in Latin. (Tothian should perhaps have asked Zeitgeist for some help with his Latin!)

Nostrum.

Ours.

Our what?

But I digress.

I replied to Tothian:

And indeed I had! Upon registering at Heroes Network, I quite promptly posted a thread explaining that I was visiting them from Ration Reality, and that I was planning to write about them. This is mandated by the terms of service of their board. Tothian’s response was swift and vicious, but it did answer the question of ‘who the fuck is this twat that calls himself Tothian?’

Well now. President Tothian. I suppose I should have shown a little more respect to him. Actually, I suppose I should have shown a little more interest in him. Hell, any interest, since these emails were effectively the first contact that I’ve had with Tothian.

I guess the first thing to note here is that, well, I wouldn’t dream of making him look like a joke, especially since he’s copyrighted. I’d say he’s done a damned fine job of that all on his own. I’m willing to settle for just making him look sad and pathetic. (By the way, Mr. President Tothian, should you feel that I have not achieved the goal of ’sad and pathetic,’ and have instead made you ‘look like a joke,’ then by all means, feel free to sue away. Here at Ration Reality, we pay a hefty retainer fee to the firm of Gowan, Foxsure, Self.So, Tothian, if you feel the need to communicate with our legal representation, feel free to contact them at (313) 263-2707. Just remember: Gowan, Foxsure, Self. Keep repeating that, until you’ve got it in your head. Gowan, Foxsure, Self.)I find it interesting that he said that people like me make his job more difficult. The mental picture I have built up of him through research and our conversation does not actually include a job. In fact, I’m going to go out on a limb here and make a wild guess that he’s probably unemployed and living in his mom’s basement. (Again, Mr. President Tothian, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but … I’m pretty sure that I’m not.) look at the cute little fisties

On 24 April 2007, Columbia New Service did an article about Real Life Superheroes, and said this:

His uniform–he prefers that term to costume–is black combat boots, green cargo pants and a T-shirt. His logo, which is stitched into the middle of the T-shirt with cut-up bandanas, is made from the letters used to spell Tothian.

I can see why he’d prefer to call it a uniform, vice a costume. But really, if your cat had kittens in the oven, would you call them biscuits? Same principle applies here.  By the way, nice job on disguising the ’secret origins of your name.’  It might have worked better if he’d included an ‘i-a-n’ in the insignia.

“That name chose me, I feel,” he said. “I am adding definition through the name, through my actions, my words and everything that I do.”

Through threats against everyone from blog authors to the President of Sudan!

Tothian says he doesn’t want to become a police officer because he doesn’t agree with every law on the book.

And also because not even the NYPD would hire someone with obvious psychiatric problems.

Tothian said he gets some strange looks when people find out he’s a superhero. But after people realize he’s out to protect them, he says their trepidation eases somewhat.

Because most of the time, retarded people are very sweet, kind people. They haven’t ever developed the capacity to be assholes.  Sadly, his path went elsewhere.

“Heroes are real, so superheroes are just heroes who are really super at it,” he said. “The world is constantly crying out in need of superheroes, and I’m giving them one.”

That’s right … he’s super! Thanks for asking!

Here’s what Wikispaces says about him:

Tothian is a Warrior, and a real-life Superhero, who primarily operates in the New Jersey & New York City areas, but focuses on operating internationally, with a heroic mission to save the world. Understanding his mission in life from a very early age, due to his heroic heart & mindset, he trained his mind, body, & spirit to become a warrior, through martial arts, meditation, military school, joining the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve at age 17 as an Infantryman, and by studying in the ways of the warrior, samurai, ninja, & hero. Tothian uses his training by patrolling his area on a semi-nightly basis, seeking to help, protect, and/or save others. He fights the necessary evils.

Really. A noble path. The United States Marine Corps is an honorable organization. I’ve been happy on numerous occasions for the presence of Uncle Sam’s Misguided Children onboard ships on which I’ve served. Other options - sheep, etc. - would simply have been too obvious.

What are these ‘necessary evils’ that he fights?  I mean, I consider pre-ground coffee to be a necessary evil.  Fresh ground is so much better.  Skim milk is a necessary evil.  Splenda is a necessary evil.  Hell, getting an oil change is a necessary evil.  Does the extent of his campaign against ‘the necessary evils’ extend to simply putting off getting an oil change?  (In his mom’s car, of course, not his own, since he doesn’t have one.)

But wait! There’s more!

Wikispaces continues:

He is also currently planning a mission to go to Darfur, Sudan. His plans include allying with the Sudan People’s Liberation Army to fight the Janjaweed Militia, and remove Sudan President Omar Al-Bashir from office, replacing him with a leading member of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement.

So. Here’s my question then. What would the United States Marine Corps think about one of its reservists plotting the overthrow of a legitimate foreign government? That might possibly be covered under Article 94 of the UCMJ.  If I remember correctly (and I do) there’s some neat verbage in there about ‘death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct.’

Of course, this might not even be an issue anymore, if he’s not subject to the UCMJ at all. If, for instance, he’d been kicked out of the Marines for being, well, fucking nuts. Now, I’m not saying that he actually did get a psych discharge, just saying that for his sake, it might have been a lucky break if he had been kicked out of the Marines for being a completely batshit crazy fucker, so he could avoid a firing squad. Of course, since the United States doesn’t have diplomatic relations with the Sudan, this might not even be an issue.

Moving on, I investigated further into his claims to be planning a mission to Darfur, and I found THIS. It’s pretty self-evident that this is simply a ploy to rectify the nasty virginity problem that’s been plaguing Tothian. (Sadly, since he was probably psyched out of the Marines, he never even got a chance to have his cherry busted out at sea by some burly bos’n’s mate that likes ‘em young and weak.) Unsurprisingly, it appears that hot chicks like it when men care about their causes. It never occurs to them that we only care up until the point where it allows us into their panties. Of course, in Tothian’s case, he’ll never have the opportunity to drop his pretenses after getting in their panties.

The nasty virginity problem has been attested to by none other than Squeegeeman, and practically confessed to by Tothian himself, in Time Out - New York.

But the romantic returns of being a masked savior have been disappointing. “I’ve only had one girlfriend in my life,” admits Tothian. “Yeah,” snorts Squeegee Man. “And her name was Lady Invisible.”

I think that says it all, folks.

 

It’s people like you, Mr. President Tothian, that make me question my opposition to abortion. It’s people like you.

Here at Ration Reality, we like to have an impartial scorekeeper. I believe that Albert Einstein will serve the purpose admirably.

    My persona’s copyrighted, also.

    And I’m going to use it to call Tothian a pussy.

    In case he feels like responding and playing the Marine card, visiting Marine basic and thinking about showing up for drills once a month doesn’t count for shit.

    “Tothian is a Warrior, and a real-life Superhero, who primarily operates in the New Jersey & New York City areas…Tothian uses his training by patrolling his area on a semi-nightly basis, seeking to help, protect, and/or save others. He fights the necessary evils.”

    Sure he’s doing a great job protecting the “citizens” of Little Silver, NJ and all of those “areas”…cause you know crime there is at an all time high right now.

    “oooh…officer…these really mean boys are smoking pot. Arrest them at once!”

    Let’s see him bring his fairycapedass to Harlem at midnight…or how bout East New York…if I wore a cape like that or was a snitch in the neighborhood where I grew up in Brooklyn you know what would happen to me? I’d be puking shit worse than Kobayashi was yesterday. Have either of you been in a street fight? Gotten slashed by a box cutter? Thrown a meaningful punch? No cape or superhero status will protect you then.

    Seriously though…I know some of these guys (SuperHeroes) are out to promote the greater good…and I respect that, I really do. But sometimes you just need to realize the approach you’re taking. You don’t need a cape, a mask and a gimmick to make a difference. Trust me. Be like Superhero and get involved with your local police departments, join/organize neighborhood watches. Start your own watch. The gimmicks? Not necessary. You’re just bringing yourself needless ridicule by squeezing your 140 pound bodies into spandex and giving yourself ridiculous names like SqueegeeMan. You’re just asking for ridicule and humiliation, and by golly…you’ve found it!

  6. Jesse Custer said, on July 5th, 2007 at 1:22 pm

    Now, now. Squeegeeman does some good work, Chris. He just looks a little goofy while he does it.

    We at RR actually have a great deal of respect for Squeegee and his ’squeegeeriffic’ mission. However, we also have a lot of lols at his ’squeegeeriffic’ costume.

    Tothian, though. We think he’s a total fucking twat, as I believe I mentioned several times above.

    Am I actually supposed to buy that this guy was a Marine? ROFLMAO.

    I knew some guys like this once- but they had guns (really scary). Let’s hope this idiot doesn’t own anything more dangerous than a slingshot.

  11. Nostrum said, on July 5th, 2007 at 3:26 pm

    Don’t agree with nor do I condone Tothian’s actions. Always preaches free speech, then contradicts such in this one action.

    Have nothing bad to say about your entries. A lot of people who claim to be “Superheroes” are just jokes. Personally hate the word “Superhero,” just the word, not the actual man.

    Regardless, when someone videotapes their heroic “Fast-food-for-the-homeless” campaign and posts it on the web, they are proving themselves to be the jokes you perceive them to be, just like the ones who make mock-videos and wield squeegees and claim to have insect-like powers or powers granted to them by a “Voodoo Queen.”

    Point is, you wouldn’t say what you have if they took this seriously.

    Have no beef with you. Tothian was wrong and just wanted to let you know that.

    For your reference:

    Nostrum (NASH-trum): a scheme, theory, device, etc., esp. one to remedy social or political ills; panacea.

  12. Jesse Custer said, on July 5th, 2007 at 3:31 pm

    Thanks for stopping by, Nostrum!

    Just out of curiosity, did I pronounce your secret title correctly? ‘click-click-cha! quot-ski!’ ?

    Also, Answers.com says this:

    1. A medicine whose effectiveness is unproved and whose ingredients are usually secret; a quack remedy.

    2. A favorite but usually ineffective remedy for problems or evils.

  13. bagel of everything said, on July 5th, 2007 at 3:43 pm

    Thank you Nastrum, for your response. I’m actually kind of afraid. I mean, this Tothian guy seems…unbalanced.

    Do I need to inform the police or anything? This shit has gone way too far! I never ever did anything to the guy, never even heard of him. I registered at his forum, and didn’t say one peep, and he starts sending me threatening emails.

  14. Nostrum said, on July 5th, 2007 at 3:52 pm

    Custer -

    Both could apply.

    1. First of my kind in my area. Effectiveness is still unproven.
    2. Problems and evil will always be around. Just do what I can.

    Pronounce it or mock me however you wish. You have the right, regardless of how I feel about it.

    Bagel -

    Tempermental. Don’t worry about it. Nothing’s going to come of it.

  15. Superhero said, on July 5th, 2007 at 4:08 pm

    Wow, Nosrtum actually came here & posted something. Just wow. He agreed with me too. More wow.

  16. Frontier Former Editor said, on July 5th, 2007 at 6:57 pm

    Well, I consider my persona pretty open-source, so I’m gonna share it to call this guy a fuckwit - in the most clinical, technical, precise sense, of course . . . .

  17. bagel of everything said, on July 5th, 2007 at 7:07 pm

    @Nostrum: Thanks for coming by, seriously. I’m glad to know there are so many of you good guys out there, and not just the scary freaks.

    Speaking of good guys: Where is our Squeegeefriend? He’s awesome!

    @Superhero: Is Nostrum like a big deal or something? A hero’s hero? Think he’d mind if I called him Nossie?

    @FFE: Join the darkside! You can be Spamanator! You can a can of fried spam in a single sitting!

  19. Superhero said, on July 5th, 2007 at 9:08 pm

    Yeah, Nostrum’s the man. Like a surgeon or something.

  20. Superhero said, on July 5th, 2007 at 11:15 pm

    Yeah, Nossie is out. I occasionally call him nos, but only in a hurry.

  21. Glen said, on July 6th, 2007 at 7:01 pm

    Yeah, Nostrum’s the man…. because he writes a blog on MySpace chronicling his supposed nightly crime fighting patrols. Do you people believe everything you read? Because, honestly, there is no proof of anything he says, and amazingly enough people sometimes lie on the internet. I hate to break it to you. A masked vigilante roaming the streets of New Orleans would get at least some local media attention considering all of the witnesses he claims in his blog have seen him in action. But strangely, not even a small local paper has done a fluff story about even the rumor of this guy.

    So yeah. If you idolize him so much, just make up your own crime fighting stories and post them to your own MySpace blog.

  22. Superhero said, on July 6th, 2007 at 7:27 pm

    I don’t make up poop. Why would I need to? all I do is feed Cops & Bums. And inspire people to help other people. And the news does cover it. looky here:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIH5929ExZE

    The point though? U give people the benefit of the doubt. Until somebody exposes nostrum, or proves otherwise, I believe him. He’s made it clear he doesn’t like my “goofy” style, I still believe him. Prove him wrong, I’ll say ‘you were right & I was wrong” but not until then.

  23. Glen said, on July 6th, 2007 at 11:01 pm

    Exactly my point, the news covered you of all people, and all you do is feed cops and bums in a silly outfit. If some guy was actually living the superhero lifestyle and doing all the things he claims to do in that blog of his, there’d be a story of a different kind, rumors of vigilante justice on the streets of New Orleans. People are eager for this kind of story, especially in New Orleans these days. That might make national headlines.

    You shouldn’t give people the benefit of the doubt when their claims are so fantastically improbable. Not unless you are extremely gullible anyway. Innocent until proven guilty is only a truism in legal proceedings. In most other cases, a little more proof is required. And this one doesn’t pass the common sense test.

    I have far more respect for people like Squeegeeman, who at least seems to know that he’s making an ass out of himself, and does so willingly to put a spotlight on various causes. I think there’s probably a lot better ways to do it, but I at least respect that he doesn’t pretend to be some masked vigilante roaming the streets like a half-assed Punisher.

    Speaking of respect, I have even less respect for Tothian. Here’s kis comment on Nostrum’s MySpace page:

    “Hey Nostrum,

    I take it we’re gonna hear about your insane patrols for the past month, in a couple of days. I look forward to it. I can’t wait until the day where you post a blog about a patrol where you kill a man. I know it’s coming, I just fucking know it. You’re gonna start killing people. LOL.

    In Freedom,
    Tothian”

    Yeah…. Killing people is funny, isn’t it Tothian? Nice superhero. A role model.

    “Yeah…. Killing people is funny, isn’t it Tothian? Nice superhero. A role model.”

    So you want people to take the law into their own hands or not?

  25. Jesse Custer said, on July 7th, 2007 at 1:16 am

    Prospect: I personally am in favor of people following the law, whenever possible.

    When and where the laws allow me to carry a weapon either concealed or openly, I do so. Works a treat for me - people tend to try very hard to look away when they see I’ve got a cocked-and-locked 1911 on my hip, and I’m mostly an antisocial fuck anyway.

    When and where the laws allow me the means to defend myself, I’ll have those means close at hand. I’m not going to ask anyone else to do for me what I’m not willing to do for myself.

  26. Glen said, on July 7th, 2007 at 1:48 am

    I’m not advocating the vigilante justice, I am just saying the media would have picked up on it by now, given all the witnesses mentioned in the blog. Whether it’s a good or bad thing, people would take notice.

  27. Jesse Custer said, on July 7th, 2007 at 2:05 am

    No, Glen, I got that. I simply think that Prospect was advocating that.

    It’s for certain that Tothian was, in another post.

    But then, he’s batshit crazy.

    Witness:

    [quote=Tothian]
    “I have always believed that I was meant to face the Antichrist in martial combat. If I’m wrong, I’m wrong. If I’m right, then I save the world. Certain prophecies have coincedentially proved what I have always felt, to possibly be a truth that comes to happen. Believe in me.”[/quote]

    About the only way to get more wacky than that is to dress like a clown and start hiding in the sewers, telling kids about balloons and things that are all floaty and shit.

  28. Glen said, on July 7th, 2007 at 2:20 am

    Wow…. he better hope the antichrist isn’t packing a gun.

  29. Superhero said, on July 7th, 2007 at 2:48 pm

    Oh, you’ve met sewer clown! he’s a great Guy! (Just kidding) But a guy like that would be safer to be around. Now you know why I pulled my support for heroes network.

  30. bagel of everything said, on July 7th, 2007 at 4:29 pm

    Superhero: I’m sorry for your loss of a social network, but am glad to hear you are man enough to stand up for your beliefs. Of all of them, you seem like the only one worthy of being called a Hero.

    :)

  31. Superhero said, on July 7th, 2007 at 5:25 pm

    Welll, I met a family, on the beach last month while filming for some half hour documentary on me that’s being shown in canada on TVtropolis. A dad Mom, & little boy. The dad had just come back from his second tour in Iraq. I told the little boy “I have the capr, but your dad is the hero”. that’s where I prefer the term to be used. I’m just a guy trying to put a dent in things.

  33. Jesse Custer said, on July 8th, 2007 at 1:10 am

    Sorry about that Cap’n … in the pictures, it looked like a turban. Squeegee has informed us, however, that it’s actually a special police-style hat …

    There’s a variety of reasons that I’m not really worried about Tothian. Namely, I’m on the opposite side of the country from him, and since I’m pretty sure he’s both unemployed AND probably unemployable … it’ll take him a while to panhandle enough for even a Greyhound ticket to come and find me. :)

    But, thanks!

  34. Soylent Ape said, on July 8th, 2007 at 1:42 am

    Makes you wonder how he’ll get to the Sudan, doesn’t it?

  35. Jesse Custer said, on July 8th, 2007 at 1:56 am

    Well, he does also list Osama bin Laden as an arch enemy …

    IF, and that’s a really big IF in capital friggin’ letters, he’s still in the Marine Corps Reserves, all he has to do is call up his unit commander and say ‘hey, I’d like to volunteer for a trip to the sandbox.’ He does that and hey presto! He’s got an all expenses paid trip, and he’ll even get paid in tax-free money.

    But that’s IF he’s still in the Marines.

    IF.

(and in this case, on a mass scale) I wonder if terrorists have different roles, maybe as an agent of warning first, then maybe as terrorist headquarters cleanup boy, then maybe a real assignment that gets him on a plane to another country to blend into their population before finding his target, strapping on a bomb, then blowing the living crappola out of himself and anything/anyone near him.

    Here is the official meaning:

    Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1) - Cite This Source
    ter·ror·ism /ˈtɛrəˌrɪzəm/ [ter-uh-riz-uhm] –noun
    1. the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, esp. for political purposes.
    2. the state of fear and submission produced by terrorism or terrorization.
    3. a terroristic method of governing or of resisting a government.
    [Origin: 1785–95; terror + -ism]

    Perhaps … but you have to REALLY look for the ‘i-a-n.’ And since there’s plenty of material on the net that refers to him as ‘Eric Toth,’ I’m not really … y’know … concerned about it. :P

    Here is where the little stooge is spewing his latest venom when he’s not on his let’s pretend RPG crap site. http://geekswithblogs.net/mschmidt/archive/2004/05/12/4803.aspx Like any real vigilante hero would actually risk self-incrimination by posting on open boards. But he unwittingly does a service to folks actually trying to make a difference. He is such a total laughing stock and publicity whore that no one will take him or the idea of a real world super hero seriously. Human nature being what it is you only prepare a defense against what you consider a credible threat. So when the real deal does come along it will be a big surprise to the bad guys. I say this under the supposition that no idea is so out there that 1 or more aren’t nuts enough to give it a try. Eventually 1 or more will succeed and the world will become a more interesting place.

    Sorry, Goldeneye…our automatic spam filter caught your comment. Glad I was able to recover it, as the link is of most excellence!

    “9/5/2007 5:25 PM Tothian - I should also add that Chris Guardian is my real real life superhero. When I need advice, I look to him for support. He is the reason I changed from being a Jedi to a superhero. Him and Superhero are the best ever.”

    HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
    I have to agree with him, tho. Superhero is awesome. Don’t really know Guardian much tho.

    Thanks for the save Bagel. You think he will ever become sane enough to fess up that it’s all self promoting RPG BS on his part.

    If you guys want the real scoop, moreso than the obvious stuff above on both Master Legend and Tothian, go here: rlsmagazine.bravehost.com

    Two days ago, I wrote a blog on Myspace exposing those two frauds for the fucks that they are, and they bitched and moaned to their mommies and the Myspace admins deleted it… which just pissed me off. So, I reposted the damn thing on Bravehost. Enjoy!

    lulz
    I forget if I like Master Legend or not (I think in the end we decided he’s alright), but Tothian really itches my cooter. Love the diagnosis.
    has little, if any, interest in having sexual experiences with another person
    The superhero job is cut out for him!

    shows emotional coldness, detachment, or flattened affectivity
    I’m not so sure that one fits him. He certainly wasn’t detached from our articles about him.

    Somebody else already posted the RLS article about Tothian and Master Legend. But here it is again…rlsmagazine.bravehost.com

    And Tothian IS detached from a little thing you and I like to call “reality”. We sould glorigy him though- after all, he IS the greatest of all heroes!

    Um, yeah battle nun… look a couple of comments up.

    This particular article is nearly a year old.

    Dreizehn: I’m not entirely sure that’s how the saying goes.
