If the moniker fits… wear it. Mzxyzptlk “possesses nigh-limitless reality-bending powers” Yeah, that’s me. Of course, I’m so far from the rest of the world’s reality that I’m not sure I’d recognize it if it bit me on the ass. In fact, I’ve bent reality to the point I wonder if I even visit it regularly.

For instance, I simply don’t get English. I am pretty sure that I don’t speak the same one the people around me do. I must have bent reality just enough that I speak the words in English and use commonplace gestures, but can’t be understood effectively, and vice versa.

I point to a specific object and say, “That’s ok to freeze,” and we go on to have a 3 minute discussion of just why it’s ok to freeze and how to prepare it for freezing. So another object nearby that’s somewhat alike is also ok to freeze? WTF? Shit. I didn’t know I had to label every single thing in the universe so people could tell what I was talking about. I didn’t realize that if I don’t do that, people will make assumptions that to me are weird.

What reality are they in? What reality am I in? Are those realities even loosely tied together? Permit me to doubt.
