I wonder what the goggle kid's experience at school is like?


He strikes me as someone who doesn't have any friends or wants someone to talk to, as a kid and as an adult I can relate very well to him.

Seems smart to me.

I do seriously wonder sometimes if the kid with googles was on the autism spectrum.

reply

I wouldn't be surprised if he was, he seems like a nice kid who never means any harm.

He graduated to binoculars and spent his teen years spying on girls until he fell out of a tree and almost got hit by a car were it not for his friend and future son Marty who took the hit for him.
