On Bill struggling with girls
>"He unquestionably had an inner confidence, but when I think about it, it didn't relate to women. When it came to athletics or stand-up comedy or spirituality or intellectual conversations, he had that fucking fire in his eyes [...] But the one thing about his relationship with women, especially early on, was that he was over-swinging. [...] Bill would just try too hard. He was an artist and a romantic. The last thing you want is a love letter when you are 16 years old. I know Bill wrote love letters."

On Bill's early anger towards women and "jocks"
>"With regard to women he was extremely romantic. "Why do girls always talk about wanting romance and commitment? They hate guys who just want them for sex. I would never do that. I would always be respectful". Then you see these turds, these jocks, walk off with your princess even though they are just blind idiots. [...] Bill was always confused by the double standard. I think he was always attracted to romance because it draws out the heart."

On Bill pretending to be mentally retarded in an attempt to attract girls
>"Bill created a character named "Happy". [...] We open the door and this super-manic teen 'tard comes bouncing into the house. "Hi, I'm Happy. Hi. Hi. Hi." The character was so hopeful, but also tragic. And at its core, it was just another ploy. We were scheming to make the girls think that there was this other level of depth to us because we were caring for for this person with special needs, trying to paint it so it looked like we were more interested in making sure this person had a place to spend his Saturday nights than we were in getting laid. [...] But "Happy" kind of ran its course. It was putting Bill in social situations, but its questionable aphrodisiac effects certainly weren't getting him any closer to getting laid."
