Talk:767: Temper

A blade with no temper is a letter opener or a butter knife. One that keeps its temper perfectly is good enough for the best swords. -- Weatherlawyer (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

I think he is also referenced in what if 146, stop Jupiter. Should it be added? {{162.158.154.229 12:38, 3 April 2017 (UTC)}}

One time, someone stole Fred Rodger's car but gave it back and sincerely apologized once he realized whose car he stole. Or so I've been told. 162.158.78.196 (talk) 23:57, 5 April 2018 (UTC) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

What about the controversy in which he told his wife to stay in the closet and not come out as gay?《プロキシ》(XKCD中毒者) 18:07, 24 October 2025 (UTC)

I see absolutely no credible (or even incredible) hint out there that echoes that idea. She survived him, and lived until 2021, plenty of time to have outed herself if she'd have wanted to. Meanwhile Fred Rogers identified himself as being platonically bisexual and seemingly happily married to Sara Joanne Rogers (neé Byrd), so it would seem even more unlikely to have persuaded her to have denied this, even to preserve his legacy. I call shenanigans on this suggestion, or you're thinking of two entirely different people entirely, or just an existing conspiracy theory that hasn't even been considered popular enough to spread.

But maybe I'm wrong, and my Google Fu has failed me (or been got at by the Mister Rogers Protection Agency!)... Please do add (however wrong it is) a link to what you mean, if it wasn't entirely your own invention. 2.98.65.8 19:15, 24 October 2025 (UTC)
