Skippy annoyed the piss out of me


Now he looks like a doppleganger for Sean Astin.

I thought that Skippy was a good character after being subjected to the likes of the Fonz for several years. Skippy is most teen boys in that despite being told to be ultra tough and never expose your weak side he can never truly shake his inner fears. Skippy like most people is anything but flawless. That despite his efforts he trips over himself mentally constantly. One of the best FT episodes is the one where Alex pledges the fraternity and the brothers dislike Skippy. So much real life there even if it is painful for most viewers to watch.

I found him very annoying too. I knew a guy that was like him and he was annoying as hell too.
