I&#8217;m no shrink and I&#8217;m not saying I&#8217;ve got Marv all figured out or anything, but &#8220;crazy&#8221; just doesn&#8217;t explain him. Not to me. Sometimes I think he&#8217;s retarded, a big, brutal kid who never learned the ground rules about how people are supposed to act around each other. But that doesn&#8217;t have the right ring to it either. No, it&#8217;s more like there&#8217;s nothing wrong with Marv, nothing at all &#8212; except that he had the rotten luck of being born at the wrong time in history. He&#8217;d have been okay if he&#8217;d been born a couple of thousand years ago. He&#8217;d be right at home on some ancient battlefield, swinging an ax into somebody&#8217;s face. Or in a Roman Arena, taking a sword to other gladiators like him. They&#8217;d have tossed him girls like Nancy, back then. &#8212; Sin City]]>Wed, 27 Feb 2013 07:00:07 -0500<![CDATA[John Hawkins]]>https://pjmedia.com/john-hawkins/2013/02/27/how-modern-life-transforms-men-into-wussies-n144610
