==Fanfic Stereotypes==
===Saint Mack===
Mack is in a curious position in the pantheon of ''Daria'' characters in that he seems to be without fault, or at least lacking major drawbacks as a male in a female-dominated story universe. In ''[[Is It Fall Yet?]],'' Jodie bemoans Mack's cash-flow issues, but that appears to be the extent of his flaws. This characterization is sometimes referred to as "Saint Mack." One extreme example of a "Saint Mack" is "[[The Thirteenth Man]]," by [[The Angst Guy]]. A less extreme instance appears in [[Bob Marley]]'s "[[You Don't Know Mack]]."
