Yes, it would seem way too much overkill to force me to have to make the effort of mentioning that I was not even slightly interested in Tinker's brother Barry. It would be even more ridiculous overkill to say that it was as if a strange creature had crawled out of a dark lagoon and landed at our high school, when actually the presence of them during the last two years of high school was barely a tiny blip on the radar screen, only because they rode on our same school bus at one time or another, although in a different part of the school bus so we never talked there.
