Am I losing my mind?

Okay, this is weird. I'm walking into church yesterday and the 'greeter' at the door ... a guy about 45 or so ... says "Welcome Tarren". Which would be appropriate except that my real name isn't 'Tarren'. It doesn't even sound like Tarren. I politely told him my real name and he said "Oh, I thought it was Tarren".

So, either I give off a 'Tarren' vibe or I have, in fact, introduced myself as 'Tarren'. Or, he's a paizonian and is playing tricks on me. Or, he's the government agent in charge of keeping my file updated and just slipped up ... Or ...


Have you considered a possibility that the reality as we see it is an illusion and that was a glitch in a system?

Would you like a red or a blue pill?


Don't worry, we took that agent back for retraining. Shouldn't happen again.

Wasn't me....


As you have come too close to uncovering governmental secrets, you are required to come to the next police station right away and allow yourself to be interred for further interrogation. The computer is your friend, and Soylent Green is humans.

It might also have something to do with all of your aliases. You're probably forgetting which one of them is really you.


Your role-play persona and your real-life persona are merging.

Interesting--THAT'S never happened to a gamer before...

Everything is fine, go about your business, please do not think about going on a trip to Tahiti and or try to escape...er, try to take a boat out in the ocean.

Someway, this evokes some memories from the Truman Show...

(love that movie)

Yes Tarren, you are losing your mind. Sorry, but it was bound to happen sooner or later. No man can run that many PbP games and remain sane.

Now that that's settled, anybody else this morning see the video of the meteor that came down in Canada?

Did blue ooze seep out of it and start a rapid vegatative growth in the area. I had just woke up and didn't know if I was watching the news or Creepshow.

He;'s a Paizonian. We were holding our breaths, waiting for this moment.

Of course, I'm a lich so that's not saying much. I don't need to breathe in the first place.
Tarren, he's either a Paizonian, OR he knows someone named 'Tarren' and thought that you were him. Either way, huge coincidence.

I seem to be growing a third nipple right between my other two. Is that normal?


I'm gonna pass on the third nipple abnormality...was the guy calling you Tarren a true story?


He must have searched your name on the web, found your alter ego, and he's just pulling the old "I'm a psychic (Either that or I just read your nametag)" bit.

Yes. True story.

But seriously, I'm worried about this third nipple thing. It's too big to be a pimple.


Oh relax. You're probably just growing a vestigial head. Nothing to worry about.

Probably some sort of subcutaneous zit.

WebMD it. If that yields no fruit. See a dermatologist. Best to swiftly seek out final answers regarding strange bumps, bro.


Uh...I'd skip WebMD and go straight for MD. Better yet, Dermatologist just as Jade said. And I wouldn't wait around. Probably something simple, but you don't want to wait. In the mean time, I will calm your nerves by saying
PUSTULE
BOIL
CARBUNCLE
LEPROSY

Spoiler:
Sorry, can only suppress the jerk so much. It'll be something simple.

On a more serious note, do this. No one wants you to die from whatever that thing may be.

I WebMDed it. The word "benign" came up a lot. So did the words "men over the age of ...". No mention of third nipples, so that's probably out. Lots of mention of clogged pours and hair follicles. I'll go to the doctor on Tuesday, but I feel much better now.

Thanks all!

;-)

EDIT: It really does look like a third nipple though. Maybe I'll try to convince my son Nerrat that it is. ;-)


Bad Dad! Probably scar him for life...

Just stay away from steam tunnels and you'll be OK...

You haven't become a Warlock have you? The Third nipple is to feed your familiar with.

Tuesday gone like the wind, but did you go?

Your son narc'd you out.

Okay, it's true. You are all just trapped inside a giant computer and the file hickuped. We will ensure that it does not happen again. Continue you fantasies while the Jacks use your mental energy to power our conquest of the universe.


Okay, Tarren, I know you're busying designing and all, but you got us all worked up over this third nipple, so tell us it wasn't alien abduction or something.

Just got back from the doctor's. It's benign.

She said, "It's not a third nipple but if it were that would be one more to kiss. I can see how it looks that way. Are you sure it is new? How can you tell with all that thick, sexy chest hair?"*

* comments in blue were not spoken out loud but I could read her dirty mind.

Tarren, do you happen to play a Tauren in WOW? Perhaps you were channelling your toon and the greeter was reading your aura.

I have yet to play WoW. I don't understand the references but I think I can figure it out.

Tauren's are the cow ones that riff off native american culture, right?
