To be fair naive, let's say you have access to a system that can pull up information on pretty much anything you want... You want a guy named Chuck Shimer but accidentally type Chuck Shumer. As a result, you get handed stuff about a congressman. I'm not saying that's what happened in this case, but without knowing…

We just want you to stay there, because when you go elsewhere, you bring that crabby attitude with you.

Who farted?

Well… what else did you all expect them to wipe their asses with?
