You should watch this [PSA](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCf9M5GsDSs). Because Swamp Ass can happen to anyone.

Why is this man not more famous? Sure, “Castle” is good, but after “Slither” people like Ebert were declaring him the next Harrison Ford.

If you followed him on Twitter, you would have known about this PSA several days ago. 😛

Nathan is also just as cool IRL as he is on screen.

Twitter would require me joining Twitter. I’m far too anti-social to do it.

No, unlike the horrible and exclusionary hell-hole that is Facebook, you can read anyone’s Twitter posts without having to join. [Here is his](http://twitter.com/#!/NathanFillion). You can just _look_ at it, like a real web page.

Not really, but here goes: it’s a minute-long PSA aimed at hardcore gamers warning of the dangers of Swamp Ass and what you can do to prevent it. The hairdryer bit is the best part.
