3. Super-Math
Comedy gold is often created by a writer making a simple miscue and giving a gift that keeps on giving. One such instance involves Superman displaying his “Super-Math” skills in which he determines that there are 32,000 beans inside of a jar. There is just one problem with Superman’s arithmetic here: 20 x 16 x 10 does not equal 32,000. Anybody can make an error moving a decimal point, of course, but one would have to think that even Superman would realize that 32,000 beans is a lot. We are talking about a ton of beans here, not a small amount capable of being held by any old jar.
