Sure, there's always your boy Monty Brown... what about outside the squared circle, though? You hear the old phrase "Alpha as f***!" thrown around sometimes, but is the concept itself a thing of the past, or even an overblown myth? If not, what would determine it in an era like today?

They totally exist. I consider myself somewhat of an alphamale because I usually lead the groups I'm in, however there are times when I'll let another alphamale dominate the pack or conversation. It really all depends on the situation.

I only see alpha males in humans when there is a guy who orders people around for his own benefit.
Any other person who takes charge I see as leader.

they still exist. it's a subtle thing, though, there's a difference between being a take-charge type and being a bossy-pants.

Well at least you'll still be around after the majority of the population is wiped out and the rest are turned into creepy, pale mutants.

Go to the Bodybuilding.com forums to see people who think they are, when 90% of the time they're just using it as an excuse to call anyone they feel is inferior to them "BETA AS HELL".

Eh, Superman will just time travel back and he and I will beat up some giant mutant cockroaches and prevent all of it from happening anyway. (Kudos if you get that reference!!)

Didn't he get thrown into the future and fight the mutant cockroaches there?
