Notable Quotes

"Sometimes when you’re friends with Aaron Douglas you call him and go 'Aaron I have this idea for a thing in the show and I think it would be kind of awesome but I don’t know if you wanna do it but would you maybe do it because I think it would be great the audience would really like it and it would be really funny' and sometimes when you’re friends with Aaron Douglas he goes, 'That’s a great idea, Wil Wheaton!' and then you go, 'Okay Aaron, that’s awesome I’ll call you with all the details,' and then he emails you back and goes, 'What about if I wore my flight suit, would that be okay?' and you go 'Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!' And then you run out into your backyard and go 'How did I deserve this life?!?'"--Wil Wheaton on being friends with Aaron Douglas
