    Thanks to Stranger Things, we now have visual proof that Jack and Rose could have both fit on that table. Thanks for proving the theories Gen X have been floating since the 90's. I feel vindicated.

    Mr. Clarke (and the fact the Duffer Bros' former teacher is in the cast) remind us that for truly great teachers, once you're their student, you're always their student. Thanks for that.
