Two fellows sitting at the bar at the top of the world’s tallest building.
One fellow turns to the other and says "Did you know this building is so tall that the wind will blow your right back up to the top if you jump off the building?
“Seriously? I don’t believe that,” said the second man.
“I can show you,” said the first man.
They go outside and the first man jumps off the top of the building. He falls 50, 60, 70, 80 stories and suddenly, whoosh, he lands back at the top of the building next to the second fellow.
The second fellow is astounded! He says “I’ve go to try that!”. So he jumps off the building and falls 50, 60, 70, 80 stories and then SPLAT! all over the sidewalk.
The first fellow walks back into the bar. The barman looks at him, shaking his head, and says “You sure can be mean when you’re drunk, Superman.”
If this was on Super Funpak Comix I’d point out that Semantics Man got his powers when he was bitten by a radioactive Semantics at a school science fair. But it isn’t, so I won’t.

Sky scrapers are enormously lazy. They don’t jump and rarely even exercise.

Round One goes to Semantics Man. But we really need to see him defeat someone evil.

he would’ve fit right into 60s DC comics.

He’s formal, he’s lexical, he’s conceptual! When quibbling over semantics might seem petty, he’s there with linguistical speed! He’s… Semantics Man!

His super power is driving criminals into such frustration they turn themselves in.

With a little help from an earthquake they do, they seldom spot the landing though.

Hey, we’re trending number one on GoComics! Thanks everybody! (now someone will point out that ‘technically’ that’s not true)

Semantics Man was his second choice. Someone already became Cunning Linguist Man.

And in his original incarnation, Supe did jump; the flying was added later.
