This is probably the best thing that has happened to Norway since the 2008 release of the film REPRISE.<br /><br />I wonder whether you would help me resolve a situation which has been the source of considerable personal turmoil since its occurrence. <br /><br />on thanksgiving eve i was in a Chicago Starbucks reading your newly Norway-lauded book when a man approached me and claimed to have been a good friend of yours, a drinking buddy, in Williamsburg. Please tell me if the following descriptions apply to someone you might know: <br /><br />He attempted for two hours to ply my affections with jargon related to quantum mechanics. Does this sound like someone you might know?<br /><br />He also attempted to ply my affections by revealing information about his paychecks and vast network of personal wealth. Does this sound like someone you might know <br /><br />He also attempted to ply my affections with effusive comments related to the music of the Wu-Tang Clan. This was less impressive than when he transcribed, rapidly and without error, the jazz combo &#39;ditty&#39; that had been playing in Starbucks and which he had apparently been idly listening to while he had simultaneously attempted to ply my affections with jargon related to quantum mechanics. Does this sound like someone you might know<br /> <br />His carriage, lack of social expediency, and oblique linguistic character seemed to suggest the presence of Aspergers or some other mild form of autism. Does this sound like someone you might know<br /> <br />He was smallish. He seemed to like Burberry. He claimed he was the smartest physicist alive. Does this sound like someone you might know<br /><br />Thank you in advance.Kristinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05121362170598000207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-41932169272504892872009-11-23T08:08:16.440-05:002009-11-23T08:08:16.440-05:00nice, Tao.Masande Ntshangahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06887488761559480691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-7230671329547730312009-11-23T01:04:59.347-05:002009-11-23T01:04:59.347-05:00@nate damn<br />@jessev sweet<br />@brendan sweet/they told me not to reveal #&#39;s<br />@anonymous sweet/are you my mom maybe<br />@sarahspy sweet<br />@anonymous sweet<br />@adam sweet/&#39;sfaa&#39; is existential, in my view, in that &#39;american apparel&#39; can be replaced with [any store], in my view, and not change the book&#39;s &#39;desired effect,&#39; in my view <br />@chris sweet<br />@bearfish hehe/sweet<br />@marie_ant sweet<br />@anonymous damn<br />@jonny sweetTao Linhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04807160197099916059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-74305704234116176512009-11-22T20:28:30.665-05:002009-11-22T20:28:30.665-05:00economic crisis temporarily averted. sweet.Jonny Rosshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15543086275377260927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-70269272934680529272009-11-22T14:38:33.530-05:002009-11-22T14:38:33.530-05:00Norwaaaaaay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay-ay.<br /><br />Norway seems as cut off from wanting to actually publish this as that Beach House song is from conceivably being about Norway.<br /><br />Still, great news for Norway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-28038903648531491562009-11-20T19:42:50.318-05:002009-11-20T19:42:50.318-05:00nicemarie_anthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07532334398954548975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-38608930926199259162009-11-20T17:16:14.634-05:002009-11-20T17:16:14.634-05:00great news for norwaybearfishnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-26389381684873838492009-11-20T16:52:46.551-05:002009-11-20T16:52:46.551-05:00great newsChris Moranhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04224395130378110435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-53886381476926563062009-11-20T15:56:11.932-05:002009-11-20T15:56:11.932-05:00seems strange. there are no american apparels in norway.<br /><br />http://americanapparel.net/storelocations/Index.aspxadam mooradhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05606273033130612185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-86234644691691081062009-11-20T15:23:09.205-05:002009-11-20T15:23:09.205-05:00Right on.
