How many 13 year olds come off as perfectly polished? When you start with the interviewer getting the name wrong, it's a train wreck waiting to happen.

Oh dear.... his voice hurts me, and he seems quite pretentious.

His mannerisms remind me of Charlie though, I'll be honest. Oh, and I eat the same thing he does when we go to QuizBowl matches. Subway tuna fish subs are good.










:)

Edit:
After watching all of the video, let me apologize. Charles/Charlie you're nowhere near as socially inept and pretentious as he is.

i think it was the subway at lexington that for some perplexing reason, didn't have tuna.

but we "owned some hos" there, so its all ok.

I'm not saying that he had to be perfect or anything, it's just you'd think that most kids by the age of 13 would realize that you're supposed to act to a higher standard on national TV.

Haha he's just mad because his grammar sucks.

What's wrong with calling someone a shower? If it's okay to call someone a gardening tool....

Also, what's wrong with quoting? Good ole' America. : )

If you need to question in your post in you can say a word....

Lets just step out on a limb and say you can't use that word on the board.

OK thanks

Yes, I did screw up your name. I've been tucked away from the world, entertained by my ever-so unusual family, and have resorted to watching Family Guy, which I've now grown fond of.

I liked Family Guy once... haven't made it a point to watch it in over a year because of how stupid and unoriginal it's gotten

yeah, I definitely agree on that one

I would guess that at some point they will include O Rly or Caturday.

They already did a Chuck Norris episode.

Season 3 and beyond of Family Guy is pathetic.










:(

I'm sorry Steph. Give that girl a dose of real life and burst her ego.
