Appeared out of NOWHERE with a [[Took a Level in Badass|major level in badass]] and has already hit his fifth gate. For the record, John has only progressed past his first with [[Sequence Breaking]]. Of course, it becomes slightly less awesome when you realize this is like four months in his future. And it's a [[Bad Future]].
** Which is, in turn, slightly alleviated by the fact he can now [[Flash Step]] so quickly he can appear in '''three places at once'''. And he kills a Ruby Giclops in what we can only presume is ONE SWING.

*** Basically, the right way to understand all of the above is that it ''isn't'' a CMOA for ''Dave'' that is somehow diminished by the mentioned extenuating circumstances. It's a completely legitimate CMOA and a badass origin story for Davesprite.

Meanwhile, Dad, Mom and Bro attack three of the largest and most powerful enemies yet encountered, and ''flatten them effortlessly''.

* Andrew himself gets one for the [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003765 5/19 update] wherein many babies are created. To clarify, he moved the day of the update and [[Freud Was Right|still got it up]]. And it was so amazing that within 20 minutes the host server began CRASHING. In 20 MINUTES. FOR A NON-FLASH UPDATE. This is also despite the fact he has upgraded his server numerous times.

Even aside from the [[Badass Boast]] of "No one can tell me our fate can't be repaired", there is also the sheer badassery of the way she ripped her walkthrough out of the Internet with magic and sealed it in a server in [[Eldritch Location|the Furthest Ring]]. And the casual comment immediately after that. And a sparkling magic signature that I'm pretty sure most normal people can't insert in their Gamefaqs walkthroughs.

** Immediately after he chews her out and logs off, he spontaneously logs back in, due to aG's mind-control powers. However, that very act, as well as her less-than-convincing rebuttal, only ''proves'' Karkat's point that she's nowhere near as manipulative as she thinks she is, and has to use her mind powers to get anyone to do what she wants.

*** Although he's not flipping out because of Terezi's manipulation, more because Vriska has control of an immensely powerful artefact which his omniscience did not cover; it's debatable to what extent this is manipulation or striking against a common enemy.
*** Then, of course, there is how the aforementioned [[Physical God]] is introduced. So far, we've been able to take control of every being ever to appear in Homestuck, Problem Sleuth, or what have you, including Godhead Pickle Inspector. This guy, though?

** Aradia and Vriska most especially. Everyone gets a nice little moment of badass, but it's mostly about Vriska either a) Mindcontrolling Terezi BY DOUBLE PROXY to stare into the sun or b) Getting <s> the everloving '''shit''' kicked out of her</s> BEATEN '''''TO DEATH'''''
