You know what's fun?

Reading the comments in other people's LJs and realizing they know some real wackadoos.

Heh...yeah...

[lowercaseem.livejournal.com]

Are these people that you know?

[thebitterguy]

Nah, this is someone an LJ associate knows.

[lowercaseem.livejournal.com]

That's disappointing. You get to avoid the trap of being hoist on your own whatever.

Yours is just such a journal for some lurker out there.

Mayhap I'm the wackadoo.

[thebitterguy]

Seriously, you're nowhere NEAR as "ohh, how interesting" as this guy was. I mean, wow.

*sigh*

[adamjury.livejournal.com]

That's exactly how I feel about your journal.

Not that I was thinking of anyone specific, and how do you know Dave Sim, anyway?

[waiwode.livejournal.com]

Tangental Anecdote. I met the real Dave Sim about twenty years ago. He wasn't showing the misogynistic crazy so much back then. I knew a drinking pal of his, and we ended up sharing a couple drinks. He seemed like a real straight shooter. This would have been late in High Society or early in Church & State. It was a great evening, Dave was a heck of a nice guy who took it pretty easy on a "casual fan of superhero comics" (me).

As for other folk? It's one of those viral chain-connections, not unlike our own, where I internet-know a guy who internet-knows a guy, all without actually meeting any of the persons in question.

I think that was just pre or during his marriage implosion/mental fragmentation.

The other guy, yeah, he didn't mention the feminine saturation of the something or other (or voids) but he gave that special frisson that only the properly crazy can.

And this surprises you because...?

And vice versa...
