X-Man

I just watched the X-Men trilogy in the past couple of days. I never really knew much about the comic characters ... okay, okay, I didn't know anything about the comic characters until I watched it. It wasn't until the second movie, X2, that I realized why they were called X-Men.

They were mutants.
Hence, mutant X-genes within humans.
X-man. Duh!?

Flew right over my head. And I took a year and a half of college biology. I've only been out of school for seven months and I can feel my brain already shrinking.
