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.
