Snyder Backstory Poll

[hobgoblinn]

I've decided would be a good night to play with the poll creation thing in live journal. So, tell me, friends, what do you think on these burning questions?



[Poll #940771]

And, for extra credit, is there anything about Snyder that interests/ puzzles you? Share! I've got my own ideas, but I thought it'd be fun to see what other people noticed that I might have missed. (Not to mention, it distracts me from my own work.)

Icon, if it works, is from blueanddollsome. I'm not sure I copied it right.

Good night, all.

Oh man-- everybody wants him to be a civics teacher!! Arrgh!

I can see it though. Not sure I can write it, but I sure see it.

Thanks for this great backstory for him, too. I see him more as divorced, too, and bitter about it. Armin Shimmerman is such a fantastic actor, that I picked up a lot of layers with the character. He's not just a cardboard villain-- and there's more emotion than just tingle moments at the thought of getting rid of troublemakers like Summers.

I always figured that it was more than just being the high school geek that had scarred him. Things went wrong somewhere, and he found comfort in following a rigid set of rules, and trying to force others to, as well. That never goes well.

The flip side: maybe he was the imaginative math teacher, good at getting his students to think, friendly with them, until something happened; maybe he had a party at his house, someone got into trouble for drinking... ;-)

Also, I can't BELIEVE I typo-ed "quiet." Grrrrr.
