Jimmy: the early years

Speaking to a friend recently who started telling this story of a guy he once walked up to uni on a Sunday with from Clarance Dock where they were both staying last year. We got on to the subject by talking about the internet, internet dating, etc.

Anyway, this person was dating some girl in America. They were in love and had been going out for years. Hmm I thought, I’m sure I know someone who is in that sort of relationship. The story then went on to explain how he basically socialised online and never came out to the pub. He even got his shopping online so he never really needed to leave his room (a nerds dream!). Wow, this is starting to sound really familar.

A theory started to form in my mind. “Was he wearing a leather jacket?” The thing that finally clinched it, beyond the fact he was moving into a house with his friend next year (now this year, the friend I worked out was Jay) was when the story went on to role playing soc. It was Jimmy! How cool is that? A story comes out in a conversation about someone this guy had only met once and it turned out to be Jimmy. That’s just soooo cool.
