If the system ain't broke, don't fix it, I guess! Accounting may not be the oldest profession, but someone had to keep the books for them.
I mean, in theory I know that Excel is based on the structure of earlier accounting technology that's been around for hundreds of years -- what do we think we did to track commerce before computers? -- but it still kind of blows my mind to, for example, look at my ancestor's journal from a whaling voyage in 1770 and see spreadsheets in the back.

Having thoughts about the past Clex in my AU and how it all went down. So in this they didn't meet young, but only after Clark moved to Metropolis and started as a reporter.
Lex targeting a young, cute reporter who is a little nervous around him like he's done plenty of times before. He'll get a bit of good press out of him and then move on.
Except this reporter is clever. He doesn't prostrate himself before Lex. He'll push back, ask hard questions, keep up with Lex trying to spin him around in a conversation. And then he starts talking smart. Lex tries to feed him some marketing nonsense about one of his scientific breakthroughs, and Clark meets him with facts. Lex realizes Clark can talk at his level, and they have a real conversation.
He also realizes that Clark might be a very, very dangerous reporter to have around.
Luckily, he figures out that he can point Clark at his competitors, who are also doing awful things. Clark tears through them article by article in a near vicious pursuit of justice. It's amazing to watch. Some of the companies crumple under the pressure, and LexCorp scoops up the pieces.
Meanwhile, Lex is happy taking advantage of having Clark around in other ways. Clark is kind without being sycophantic. Lex can talk with him as an equal. They find common ground in their desire to change the world and move humanity into a new age. Clark is gorgeous and makes a very good addition to Lex’s bed.
Part of Lex, a strangely romantic part of him, expects that Clark will forgive all the lies he has told over the course of their relationship, and will come to understand the terrible things Lex does with LexCorp in the name of bettering humanity. Because Clark says he loves Lex, and Lex believes him.
But the forgiveness does not come. When Clark turns that all too sharp eye onto LexCorp and begins to see the truth, they begin to fight. Lex does not get the forgiveness he was expecting. He doesn’t get the understanding.
Clark aims his pen at LexCorp and hits it just as hard as he has all the others.
To Lex, it is an ultimate betrayal. Lex feels fully justified in ruining Clark’s life, getting him fired, getting him blacklisted. When a little independent newspaper called The Daily Planet does pick Clark up, Lex is furious. He hounds them, trying every trick in the book to get them to drop Clark.
And then they start publishing about the alien. The alien, who is already the one thing that can get Lex’s mind off of Clark. Now his backstabbing ex-boyfriend’s employer is profiting off this alien who Lex already despises on principle. It certainly doesn’t help that the alien seems to have a grudge against LexCorp and keeps interfering in some of their most valuable operations.
Unable to drag Clark down any further, Lex turns all his ire on the creature called Superman.
As time moves on, both love of Clark and hate of Superman start to converge into a single all-consuming obsession.

There's nuance to a lot of these, especially considering the canon material being DC Comics, but I'd say these are the general preferences I have!!

shipping a consensual, safe & sane pairing all the while i'm shaking my head in disapproval so the audience knows i still love wildly toxic abusive fictional dynamics
holy shit I just discovered this crazy technique for being right almost all of the time it's called "double checking something before boldly stating it as if it were fact" this could be the next big thing. this could be the song of the summer

we as a community need to give nick kay more credit like that man really blew up at least a thousand cocoons of vampires, had a 1v1 with the ancient one, then survived an explosion with just a scratch. wtf did they feed him😭
I get so frustrated when Clark is reduced to the himbo next to Bruce's Smartest Man in the Room. Clark is incredibly intelligent. He's got a Genius-Level Intellect in his Abilities section in most wikis for a reason.
Just look at World's Finest (2022) #3 for a simple instance of Clark being incredibly intelligent, even to the point of figuring out what Batman hasn't.
A sorcerer appears to have transported them to Hell. Batman is the one freaking out. Meanwhile, Superman?
Clark reads the situation and the psychology of who they are up against, instantly realizes they're in an illusion, and devises a way to target the villain safely before Bruce even has time to stop freaking out.
Then in World's Finest (2022) #5, we see Clark out think (and outfly) both Bruce and Kara in what seems to be your typical "sacrifices himself to save the world" plot where he locks himself in a tomb with an unimaginable evil.
Bruce once again freaks out. But the second he calms down and his brain starts working again, he realizes that Clark hasn't done anything stupid. He's done something INCREDIBLY smart, and he's trusting Bruce to be brilliant enough to be able to follow his logic (and thus rescue him from almost certain death). He is, of course, correct in this trust.
The reason Clark and Bruce work so well together is that they're both geniuses. When one fails to handle a situation, the other can pick up the slack. When they're both handling the situation together, they're nearly unstoppable. Writing Clark Kent as a dumb silly himbo might be cute, but it's not who the character is, and it's not Superbat's dynamic.
They're genius4genius, and that's what makes them World's Finest.
