On Bill visiting a porno theatre as a teen
>"The Zipper Lounge soon became just another one of the things we did. [...] Bill [...] would call down to the theater and ask what movie was showing. He didn't just want to know the title, he wanted to know what the movie was about, the plot. [...] he would call down there and the poor bastard running the theatre would have to explain the film like it was the latest blockbuster. [...] So, we'd pay and go in, and Bill would always get popcorn. The rest of us were worried about picking up hepatitis or some orally transmitted sexual disease from the glasses. [...] Once we sat down, he was in a different world, just completely at ease, blissfully watching the movie."

On Bill's thoughts on the prostitutes at the porno theatre
>"But the Zipper also started this delusional pseudo-fantasy that we were somehow better than the other patrons; that we would rescue these girls. [...] One night, Bill spent over $100 at the Zipper. Half of that was to go to the party room. He came back and was so disappointed because, for all of the money he spent, he didn't get to have sex."
__________
On Bill's virginity issues
>"Girls were the big mystery to both Bill and Dwight in high school. [...] Most guys who were virgins would just keep their mouths shut and act like they knew what was going on. Bill and Dwight were open about how not laid they were getting. They didn't want to be virgins, but at the same time they wanted their first experience to be more than something cheap. Especially Bill."
