Meet Rami Elliott

Meet Rami Elliott. After seeing "Bohemian Rhapsody" during April Watchathon week, I decided to purchase my own Rami Malek Funko. The only one available was Rami's role as Elliott Alderson from TBS' "Mr. Robot".

If you enjoyed this funko post, be sure to send me a follow request to my Insta!

There's music videos and lots more visual stories.

Perfumes and colognes combine and foods from the kitchen circulate. Men yell at the football game and women laugh at something funny. All this is taken in at the door. There is a long way to wade through before I can put my coat in a quiet bedroom. I have to remember to smile and say "hello" as well as accept hugs. There are a few cousins who cannot stand my presence, though, at age 5, I don't know what I could have possibly done to upset them. I am asked, "Why do you plug your ears?"
