    I’m impressed that he realizes he’s a loser.

    It’s not that he realizes that he’s a loser, it’s that he realizes that other people think he’s a loser. A subtle but important difference.

    Jeff has actually had a very impressive life-experience - Class President at school, college graduate (even though it was only Walden,) CIA internship - for his age. Meanwhile, Dad drifts along like the other Walden losers, pretending to be a blogger.

    Go the Red Rascal!

    Two words for Jeff: graphic novel.

    Wonder if Mr. Overkill has any Marvel contacts…

    Mr. Overkill probably needs a good laugh and Prince Poppycock was too busy.

    @davidblack, you do have a point. Chaotic as it is, at least Jeff has career goals and works the system hard to achieve them. He’s not your typical “helicopter generation” kid… as this discussion with dad illustrates, he resents having choppers around to tell him what to do (explains much, perhaps).

    @MightAsWellBe: After “leaving” the CIA, Jeff has applied for a job with a Blackwater-type government subcontractor company called Overkill Inc and Mr. Overkill is the boss.

    @mightaswellbe; What’s wrong with sounding ignorant? I’m ignorant of lots of things, and like you, I want an answer to my questions.

    Now being ignorant and proud of it, that’s what people should be ashamed of.

    @Justice22; _My_ keyboard has a pound sign (#) over the 3 on the top row of keys. Doesn’t yours?

    I’m too lazy to install another language for my keyboard. I install a Spanish language and then something takes it out… Weird.
