I know I'm two years late, but didn't we hear that their fake backstory involves being from Chicago? If he grew up a Blackhawks fan…

"Mormon", to my understanding, has long been government slang for anyone who plays everything by the book. A starched shirt type. A square.

TWO YEARS LATER REPLY: I hate Ronald Reagan, so I'm pretty much okay with rooting for these two.

Star Wars not having anything to do with sex has more to do with the fans than the fiction itself.

Shit, do you remember when one of the Law & Order shows basically DID that?

oh, I agree with you on that. It's to the point where I'm overly protective of my kid because I'm worried about some other uptight asshole calling DFCS on me for letting him play outside by himself.

Well, yes, but again, when it DOES happen, holy shit. Wayne Williams and Adam Walsh.

HI, I'M MAX KELLER!
