That's my main issue with this. He's not any cornier than all the other people that you post along with EVERYDAY that do stuff like this. You're older than him, why does he have to be your hero? All the dudes his age have grown up with/on the internet. Isn't there a possibility that he loves being on the internet just as much, or more than you?
