a couple of weeks ago I was stood in a queue waiting for my veggie Nepalese MoMo's and some guy was talking loudly about how his father had been murdered by the Corsican mafia and he had to assume a false identity to track down the killers, so of course my ears perked up

but then when he started talking about hit dice I realised he was just droning on about the RPG he was playing

we used to get that a lot in Manchester occult book shops, some guy behind the counter would be promising "immortality" to a customer and then you'd realise they were just D&D nerds

one of my brothers friends had done a huge bump of K and was stood outside READING train station looking at himself across the road and wondering "which is the real me"

"it's so confusing"

David Seed, discussing Richard Fariña's _Been Down So Long_: "Its protagonist Gnossos Pappadopoulis attempts to exercise freedom by (what he variously calls 'exemption' or 'immunity') by shifting manicly through a whole series of roles drawn mainly from popular culture. These roles offer an ideal ease of manoeuvre through situations potentially full of threat. Gnossos reflects at one point: 'who to be? Green Arrow, Billy Batson? Plastic Man still best, do the metamorphosis, be a Mingus side, feel the crystal vibration in my grooves...' ...Gnossos avoids fixity of social definition..."
