Frank
During his freshmen year of college, Frank Dasta was kidnapped by Libyans and locked away in a cave somewhere in the Midwest. The terrorists demanded that he build them a soulless and impersonal pop culture website that talks down to it’s fanbase, harasses them with ads, charges them to use the forums, and even prompts them to like every page on Facebook. They planned to plunge the Internet into a state of total disarray and rampant idiocy in a bid to take over the world. With a box of scraps, Frank instead built RobotBoombox.com and used it to escape. The founder of the site and current Future Science Jesus, Frank enjoys fighting games, long walks on the beach, and referring to himself in the third person.
