We Almost Got Mass Shooting'd + How Would We Protect Our Wives?

Tim Chantarangsu and David So were supposed to be at the Bite of Seattle this year. They'd been going for the past few years—flown out, put up in a hotel, paid to do a stage appearance.

Like, whoa, I was supposed to be there. But in Loki, it was I was a little shook about it, bro."
