I was letting my mind wander the other day, when an incredible thing happened... It didn't come back.
After a lengthy search and rescue operation, I managed to come away with an idea. I was thinking about why Ron is so popular with the fans when Kim is clearly the star of the show. It suddenly struck me that it all comes down to his "lovable loser" quality.
People just seem to like an awkward, well-meaning idiot. He seems approachable, and in his highly-visible weaknesses we often see something of ourselves. It's a quality all human beings can relate to.
Expanding on this line of thought, I began to make a list of the qualities Ron possesses that would seem to embody this overall image of the "lovable loser." This is what I came up with:
-Big Ears
-Mussed-Up Hair
-Goofy smile
-Tenuous Grasp of the English Language
-Propensity toward making-up words
-A Perpetual Sense of Being "Out-Of-Place"
It was at this point that I suddenly realized who else I was describing with these terms, and the resulting epiphany absolutely floored me...
You'll never guess who...
Wait for it...
Uncanny, isn't it?
And so, my fellow stockholders, this leads me to my final idea:
STOPPABLE '08!
*Insert brass band playing "Hail to the Chief" here*
If ever there was proof that the "lovable loser" factor was enough to win the White House, then this is it. So let's get organized, people! We managed to save KP from cancelation! We can certainly do this!
Let's get out there and give Hillary and Barack O'Bamma a run for their money!
