Jo - you may think Hanker is a genius, but I don’t at all. He is genuinely self-deluded. But - you do give him an out and I hope that maybe he will take it. It’s really sad to see a man so insecure. I do agree that all of the replies feed him, just not in the same way you think. Brian just isn’t that clever, and again more importantly he is far too insecure to ever say that he wasn’t serious when he stated that he was huge, looked awesome, didn’t have a pencil neck, had arms that could even fill out a tee shirt sleeve,,, etc etc.
