"Fox understood the X-Men more than Marvel ever will..."

My old college buddy who is a Sheriff Deputy in Gaston Co. NC could tell you horror stories where humor is applied. Last time I was in the area for his birthday we talked a long time. Stuff that would have me shitting myself and in the moment he joked with the other cops on site. He said something that stuck near the end of my visit. "If it wasn't for my silly sense of humor I would've ate my gun 10 years ago."
