I started calling him Sparky on PC forums a year or two ago because his working style can be a bit too amped up (and he could be a little intense at 7am) Like the love child of Tony Robbins and Tigger. But I've become very fond of him and his quirks.

A few months ago we discussed crying in therapy and he kept saying it was OK. I'm always saying "Ugh I hate crying in therapy."
He looked at me knowingly and said sometimes "instead of crying sometimes we just need to growl." So either he knows or it was a really strange coincidence.
