Maybe his last name is Park

Kids being kids reminded me of Onfim, the boy from medieval Novgorod who drew himself slaying dragons instead of learning his letters

Richard Doggow was a sharpshooter in the Great War but he hasn’t been the same since he was wounded

Oh god, I’m at the airport right now. Don’t let it be me.
