  • The interviewer is a judgmental whore.

  • @WoolfsAndCohens I'm going to have to hold you to that.

  • @mrstratomaster If neither of us marry him, you are certainly my back up. 

  • He just stumbles upon what he does. What better way is there to look at it?

  • is it just me or does she seem to have a very mocking grin on her face ?

  • @mrstratomaster So would I. I would marry him even if he was yours. (I'm also a heterosexual male, by the way).

  • @britishtwiggy Most likely 31; there's, like, a 30% chance that he's 32, considering his birthday is just under three quarters of the way through the year. It's on September 21.

  • How old is he here?
