    I love how he always reminds people that Joe is a murderer and that they shouldn't like him
  • @ma_kenz
    “I didn’t drop out of middle school, I dropped out of… childhood.” That was both funny & sad
  • @SaCa0802
    "that's a secret i'll never tell" that quote really brought me back to the good ol' days man
  • @samvra
    Bro is an underappreciated actor
  • I feel like he is so smart and understands everything so fastly
  • Met Penn after a Mothxr show in 2016 and he was exceptionally kind despite being hungry and visibly irritated. 3 of my friends and I loved their music but the few that were there as Gossip Girl fans were being persistent with photos. He took about 7+, asked if I wanted one, and when I declined he said 'Ok, I'm gonna get something to eat then.' About 20 minutes later, after I joked with him that Subway was probably the only thing open on a random weeknight, we walked past him eating tacos or something with the food on the hood of the car. He took the time to discuss politics with me mid-meal as my unhinged 19 year old self at the time told him I was going to/did vote for Jill Stein and the Green Party after the DNC fought against Bernie Sanders in the primary. He said he appreciated that I liked his political tweets but ultimately felt like he shouldn't be getting too much credit for what he says as a 'privileged white guy' and that he is trying his best to keep learning, share what he can etc. Also, he was much more funny and light-hearted post-meal lol. Still remember that experience vividly because it felt like talking to a chill friend. Very sincere & overall great guy.
  • this man is easily one of the most talented actors in the world, absolutely brilliant acting as Joe since season one!
