Bio: Interny McIntern is our resident intern. He writes for the blood, sweat and tears of it all, and never complains about fetching us coffee. (Just kidding, we never let him fetch our coffee; he always screws it up!) We give him all the crap assignments no one else wants, and he gives us gold. Goddammit, Intern, you’re getting an A!
