I'm not feeling very special right now, and I blame Mr. Rogers.
Growing up, he always told me through the television just how special I was. And I, like, believed him.

I'm now discovering what a great mistake that was. I'm really not very special at all. In fact, I'm hopelessly normal.

Now I feel dull. Soulless. Mr. Writer's gone all day and he's the only one that makes me feel special... sometimes... but not like Mr. Rogers did.

Mr. Rogers, it's all your fault! You sock-puppet wielding, sweater-wearing, cruel person! You lied to me. :cry:

1. No, he didn't lie to you.

You actually should watch him again - maybe it will help you realize the ways you are special. But you are.

2. Wait, now, who said that ANYONE should feel special?
Shouldn't we all just accept our relative normality and enjoy that?

4. Why him?
All he's going to do is tell me that it "goes up to 11."

5. But have you heard him do Mr Rogers?
It's on an old National Lampoon Radio Show album.

7. No, I haven't!
I'd love to hear it, though. :)
