#not even gonna go into tedkaren and bradjanet cuz i'm not quite done processing all of this. but billy and rocky..................

[boysdontcryboycry]

something something eddie and ted sharing a name making them foils something something rocky horror picture show "eddie" and how eddie munson is sooo similar to rhps eddie

but how i'm having visions of ted clutching that teddy bear

something something eddie (homosexual) rejecting his teddy bear and rejecting society and conformity (without going too deep into his hypocrisy rn) vs ted (homosexual) clinging to his teddy bear and clinging to society and conformity, something something socioeconomic positions and the munsons being lower working class family (eddie's dad specifically mentioned engaging in criminal activity) vs the wheelers being an upper middle class "good" family

and something something about how this relates to max and mike, being two characters with "m" names that only go by their nicknames. and how max is eddie's next-door neighbor. and mike lives in the same house as ted as his son. gonna have to rewatch s4 cuz i honestly don't remember how eddie and max interacted on-screen if they did at all. oh it's the championship game vs do i get one of those cool shirts slash sarcasm. and i don't need to tell you the glut of mike and ted parallels.

no comment.
