I’m tired so this blog post is less than it could be, but there’s a link to a better blog post talking about the same thing. Read on!

It’s a really, really small world.

Last week some random guy from PwoT forums posted on our blog.

Score!!! Strangers not only read our blog but post on it too. Most of our friends don’t read the damn thing let alone post comments. I was impressed. I found out later that he knew Stuey through PwoT. Fair enough… he still visited the blog and posted on it. Yay us.

I went to his site, read his blog (which is better than ours by far) and thought nothing more of it. I revisted his site later, and asked Stuey who he was. Apparently he lives in Brisbane and goes to QUT. Hmmm… small world. Random internet funny dude, from Brissy. In Uni. Same Uni as Stuey. Met online. Shit ay?

Once again forgot about it.

Last night he added me to his MSN… wtf? Oh well I had posted on his blog so maybe he found my ‘material’ vaguely amusing… or completely offensive. I figured offensive. Once again: forgotten.

Tonight I decided to say hello…

A: Mmmmmmmyyelllo. Who is this?
D: Lachlan Ryan’s brother.

Ahhh… so it’s not that funny guy from the net. It’s just Lauclan’s (my sister’s boyfriend) brother. Weird but okay…

D: aka ‘happy clown’
A: What?!?!

This is the username of the bloke from the internet, with the blog… What?! He then sent me to this link. The Doyle Connection.

Now for those of you too lazy to read the above link (seriously…. do it! It has some of the funniest photos from my site taken completely out of context.) this bloke Stuey has been talking to online, is in Brisbane, goes to QUT, and is my sister’s boyfriend’s brother!

Not only this but I’ve met him before. He’s been in my house. After State of Origin this year I came to find some random guy coming down my stairs.

“Who the fuck are you?” I believe was my exact expression. I might have been affected by alcohol a little, but I probably would have said it anyway. I found out it was Lauchlan’s brother and not overly trusting any blokes with my sister, proceeded to exchange a few niceities before heading off to bed.

Apparently he’s made the connection via randomly visting my website from the blog (Yay someone say my site too!). To quote tonight’s MSN conversation:

D: I spent like 2 hours comparing the photos from your website and Kristen’s site(s), trying to find conclusive proof.
When I saw the front door and the stairs on your site I thought: wtf?
I even saw the blog post of Ben and his kid, around the same time as Lachlan went with Kristen and your mum to see him. Never clicked. Shouldn’t have, they were completely separate in my mind, plus I saw the blog 2 weeks later.
A: Wow…. you did a lot of research into this post. This still blows my mind.
D: Not a whole lot of research, since so much of the stuff I’d known before – I just had no idea they were all related. Eg. Disco Stu referred to Mansfield High as dear old alma mater in the post about lollipop ladies. That in itself was kind of cool, having a pwotter live so close. But it makes sense, since I assume you went there and now Kristen does. Lots of things I’d read now have an extra layer of meaning when I re-read them.
A: Wow…. I can’t believe my blog has a reader.
D: A reader who turned out to be the brother of your sister’s boyfriend… weirdest coincidence ever.

This is kind of hard to explain… but worlds are colliding people (title reference)!! Internet people aren’t real people. People from random forums do not actually exist. Even if they do, I certainly do not meet them late one night, after a football game, stalking my home (I was shocked at first that someone was in my house). The internet and real life have no connection!

You people don’t exist!!!
