Confessions of a Dork
When you were a kid, did you ever have a crush on a cartoon character?
Uh, yeah, me neither.
I most certainly did not have a crush on Gadget from Chip 'n' Dale's Rescue Rangers. I mean, that'd just be crazy, 'cause not only was she a cartoon, she was also a mouse. I mean, sweet personality, really smart engineer, and great looks; but, uh, yeah, she was a mouse, so, CRAZY, right? Yeah. Not me. Nope.
Now, if one were to have had a crush on Lisa Hayes, well, that would be more understandable, 'cause she at least was a human. And smart, and shy, and looked great in a military suit. But, uh, still a cartoon. So, yeah, that would be pretty dumb, to have a crush on her.
But not as dumb as Rick Hunter was, who couldn't tell that she was way better than that stupid whining Minmei! I mean, Jesus H. Particular Christ, Rick, can't you tell --
Um -- ahem. Yeah, never mind.
