Ladler: Hi.

Interviewer: Hi Ladler. How are you today? Anxiously awaiting anyone to shut up and die?

L: I’m actually waiting for people to start talking, then they can shut up and die.

I: That does make sense. Tell me, Ladler. We all know Nick misses you on a regular basis. Have you ever felt the same?

L: Well, honestly, I’ve never really missed myself. I’m always there for me, or something…

I: Touche. I’m sure you’re glad you feel that way.

Now about your nickname; where did it come from? L: Mr. Adler, and I believe you named me Ladler.I: Not true. I enforce nicknames, others create them. So do you consider yourself worthy to be a “little Adler”?L: I guess. I feel like my failures in chemistry almost measure up.I: Do these failures include your AP exam score and your high rank at the Chemistry olympiad?L: Yes. Only a 5? Only 10th Place? I’m a pitiful excuse for a chemist.I: I see. What’s wrong with you, Walpole?L: It’s probably the inherent autism in my family.I: Could be… I thought you didn’t have relatives?L: Well, the ones who’re alive are kind of… not alright. My brother has ADHD and acts like an autistic kid at times. My cousin jumped off a balcony when I was 6 just to freak me out. He broke his arm.I: … That’s not good.L: Autism.I: Anyway, you say a lot of, “politically incorrect” things in the quote book. Do you care at all about offending people?L: It depends on the person. Generally I won’t care as long as their age is less than double my age minus 7.I: You like math, huh?L: Technically speaking, there are only two things people enjoy; dopamine and serotonin. But sure, I find math enjoyable.I: Well, you do keep a calculator in your pocket.Last question: are you ever going to start teaching AP Sarc?L: I don’t know what sarcasm is, Sara. And that calculator was really useful.I: Any last words? (According to facebook, you might die soon).L: Yes, just three.I: M’kay then. Thank you for your time, Ladler.
