    Wasn’t Kirk the captain of some starship thingy? I seem to recall some sort of kelvin timeline where stuff changed but I don’t recall anyone named “Charlie” being of any importance whatsoever.

    Probably an Extra.

      No you’re thinking of Captain Kirk. Charlie Kirk was an NFL quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons. He played college football for Michigan State and was drafted by the Washington Redskins in 2012.

          Nah, they are thinking of Kirk Cameron the leader of the free Christian world who also has a side job as a barista at Einstein Bros throwing coffee and bagels…

            Which of them is the owner of Kirkland Signature brands? That’s the one I was thinking of.

              I was thinking of…

              I was thinking Charlie meant church, and kirk meant church,

              So,

              Church Church.

              But I looked it up…

              French and English form of Carolus, the Latin form of the Germanic name Karl, which was derived from a word meaning “man” (Proto-Germanic *karlaz). However, an alternative theory states that it is derived from the common Germanic name element *harjaz meaning “army”.

              So,

              Man Church

              Or,

              Army Church.
