So I go into "Record Explosion" off 42nd street to look for obscure softporn, and the guy manning the front door recognizes me from the LAST time I was in there because he remembered telling me that I looked like the guy on my button (sans Pipe). [Complimenting me whether he knew it or not!] We eventually get into a long conversation about religion, etc. To my frustration I had no pamphlets on me. But what reaaaaaaaly scared me was when he, in an attempt to repudiate my argument that society "gives" us all our thoughts and opinions by explaining the objective nature of language, said:
'Take any word in the dictionary! Take the word "pink"! Now, "pink" may mean one thing to you, and it means the same thing to everyone, right? Pink is pink!'
(Just in case you aren't sure, I HADN'T used the word in its SubG terminology at all... spooky, eh? That's when I knew I had to come back and flood the store with "Bob's" Wor of Wevil.)
...It's a funny ole life, i'nt it?

Thank you for sharing that bit of gland twisting synchronicity.
*I* think he's toying with you. In fact, I think "Bob" may have been channeling himself through that guy at the time.

Yeah, you should definitely show that guy some Pamphlets or something. Sounds like he's INCREDIBLY PSYCHIC. Obviously he picked up your thoughts. He MAY be a highly rogue SubGenius.
