Guys I have a story to tell you.
I met DPC at a restaurant once - we’d accidentally been given his table. Apparently he was fond of the restaurant and had a specific table he liked, and the management had messed up and gotten their days wrong, (it was Tuesday and they thought he was coming on Thursday or something like that). Anyway, the manager, completely embarrassed (this is a pretty nice restaurant) comes by and says “I’m so sorry, but we’d like to move you to another table if you could be troubled, and we’ll gladly compensate you for the cost of the meal and any other meal you’d like while you’re in town.” My cousins were both like “Yeah that’s cool.” and I kind of played the asshole a bit. “I’m sorry, I just don’t understand. We’ve been here for 15 minutes - we’ve just ordered. Can’t we finish our meal here?” Then out of nowhere DPC shows up next to the manager and says “Paul, these guys can finish. We’ll be at the bar. I got some time, the animations are still in queue rendering anyway.” (I recognized him because he had a DIK jacket on and his wife constantly talked about feminism to him). And I (being a big Being a DIK fan) said “Oh wow, uh… I had no idea. Please feel free to give them the table.” DPC was grateful, shook my hand and said thanks, then gave me a card with his Patreon page and phone number on it and told me to give him a call later. After working up the nerve, I gave him a call that night, and to make a long story short, we had a glorious 11 month love affair, man on man, that I shall never forget. Our bodies intertwined as one, and from the beauty of Morocco, to the French Riviera, to the snorkeling in the Galopagos, DPC and I made glorious gay love to each other on six of the seven continents.
I met him as well, unfortunately the encounter wasn't as positive as yours..
I saw Dr Pink at a grocery store in Los Angeles few months back. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
Well. I did encounter him too. I was at a nightclub in Sweden, or Germany. I don't remember I was really drunk because DPC just posted the Friday Development News a few hours before. So I was there to celebrate the fact that the release was really close, at least that was some fans claimed on Reddit.
Well, I recognised him because he was moving fast at 60fps to reach a free table while all the rest of us was slowly moving at 30fps. So he got to the table next to me and I couldn't resist to compliment him.
This is the dialogue that followed, still printed clearly in my brain.
Me: You're a pistol, you're really funny DPC. You're really funny.
DPC : What do you mean I'm funny?
Me : It's funny, you know. Being a DIK is a good story, it's funny, you're a funny guy.
[laughs]
DPC : What do you mean, you mean the way I write? What?
Me : It's just, you know. You're just funny, it's... funny, you know the way you tell the story and everything.
DPC : [it becomes quiet] Funny how? What's funny about it?
His wife Dany: DPC no, you got it all wrong.
DPC : Oh, oh, Dany. He's a big boy, he knows what he said. What did ya say? Funny how?
Me : Jus...
DPC : What?
Me : Just... ya know... you're funny.
DPC : You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little fucked up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fuckin' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny?
Me : Just... you know, how you tell the story, what?
DPC : No, no, I don't know, you said it. How do I know? You said I'm funny. How the fuck am I funny, what the fuck is so funny about me? Tell me, tell me what's funny!
Me : [long pause] Get the fuck out of here, DPC!
DPC : [everyone laughs] Ya motherfucker! I almost had him, I almost had him. Ya stuttering prick ya. Dany, was he shaking? I wonder about you sometimes, Gunizz. You may fold under questioning. And hey Gunizz, I've just
banned you from my Discord.
