[Charles had no idea that his hairstyle was really such a commodity, but he did have a nice head of wavy hair underneath his hippy mop...so perhaps he could see the appeal? As long as no one threatened to shave his head it was fine.]

I can relate...but for a man who was simply a name on a piece of paper I inherited quite a bit of the expectations.

[If Charles was bitter with anyone then he didn't let it show. As of now he had no parents, he had an adopted sister who softened his hardships greatly, but that was a long story.]

That depends on how much you have in common with a nerd, I read books and play chess in my spare time.
