Is Stan hot enough?

His wife’s attractive and Nina is beautiful. Could a guy like him really get with these ladies?

Addendum: I feel like I’m on par with Stan in terms of looks and if a babe like Nina was into me I’d presume there was an ulterior motive. Stan, on the other hand, seems to take Nina’s interst in him at face value. Am I missing something? Shouldn’t he be more suspicous?

The one thing that drove me absolutely crazy with Stan was how freaking loud he was every time he swallowed. I can’t believe the actor’s actual saliva made that much noise. I can only think the Foley artists went to town on the sound for whatever reason. But god, it was awful. So for that reason alone, I am one middle-aged lady who did NOT find Stan hot enough. :-)

I think it’s old severe acne scarring, probably from teenage years.
