The title is so boring I can't bear to even read your post, fearing it may literally bore me to my death. I wonder if it was on purpose.

I think the title was just fine.

In fact, this topic has incredibly valuable information. I had never heard of Willrow Hood, and I'm glad that I know about him now!

I think if I attended a sci-fi convention, and I correctly identified a Willrow Hood cosplayer, I'd feel really cool for like a minute, and then suffer severe existential horror for the next decade or so. 'What the hell is wrong with me. I know who Willrow Hood is, but could I name my local congressman with a dumb Star Wars lazer-gun to my head.'

^^You should have a more corrupt congressman; that's how I remember my current & previous one's names.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

We've chosen to specialise in terrible senators and governors, here.
