My impression of all the Letterman staff:
My name is Bland College. I started out on Latenight as a toilet paper boy at 3 years old in 1952 & ended on the Late Show in 2015 as executive producer. I wrote in about fruit bowls & they hired me. I played Kip the Angry Carp, a bit we did 96 times.

They should point away from the text &, therefore, should switch with whichever direction the language goes (except for ones with text or arrows).

I've long thought that too. A half-mute button, for loud commercials & noisy chase scenes.

This seemed really relatable until I realized his goal is to have sex with a pig?
