I noticed that today’s protagonist shares a pseudonym you use when eating out. Not only do you have a nom de pizza in common but you both have sort scraggly facial hair, a backwards ball cap, and a huckster mien that makes me think of someone peddling monster cables at Best Buy. Yet everything seems to be coming up roses for him, barring Decker’s luke warm reception of course. Is this a cry of “unfair” to a world that treats you as a talented but scruffy looking nerf herder? If I was your shrink I could really gouge you for $100 per hour exploring this thread a bit more.
