I love how we have all these history and culture nerds ready to call out Tony’s utter lack of knowledge when he isn’t trying to spin it. Well done, lads and lasses!
I’m late commenting on the Tony/Zach pic, but what I would usually say has already been - that Tony is so obviously in discomfort over being jailhouse gay to a fag that digs him way too much and is oblivious to the truth. Honestly, that’s my favorite part about Tony, I think! Imagine being him and looking at all the attractive women he clearly
actually wants and trying to emulate for maximum coom, only to snap back to reality in the bathroom and glance over at his “wife” (roommate without sex) shaving “her” face as dear
@Geranium postulated… quickly looking away to hide the grimace he made from being noticed. I focus on their relationship so much because Tony is stupid but at least self-aware. Does he ever think about snapping and stopping the charade to get away from that man ass and receding hairline Zach has? Does he refuse to do so because Zach’s one of the few genuinely willing to give him the time of day and he’s truly alone otherwise? Good lord I would love the chance to know how he
really thinks, deep down.
