Saving The World Is For Other People

Frankly, General, Operation: Slack Attack has been a bit of a let down.

“Hey, Paul. Sweet portable DVD player you’ve got there.”

“Oh, this thing? Yeah, I just got it and I think I really like it. It’s a Philips Portable DVD Player with iPod Dock and SD card slot. Check it out. It’s got a nice 8.5 inch widescreen LCD display for video and photo viewing. Plays all kinds of different disc formats, or I can just plug in my iPod Touch, Classic, 3rd Gen Nano, or 5th Gen iPod into the built-in dock on the side. I could even just load up an SD card with movies, music, and pics and plug it into the card slot.”

“That’s so weird. I’ve never known you to be the kind of guy to buy something like this for yourself.”

“Oh, I didn't buy it. The Other Me did. Well, I don’t know if he technically bought it, really. He might have killed a guy for it. I’m not sure.”

“Wait. What are you talking about? ‘Other You’?”

“I know, right? It sounds crazy, but apparently I’ve been living this double life that I have absolutely no recollection of whatsoever. One day, I’m on the bus riding home from work and I totally black out. The next thing I know, I’m lying on the floor in my kitchen wearing clothes I’ve never seen before and this Philips Portable DVD Player is sitting there on the counter with a sticky note on the screen that says ‘Play Me’. So, I do, right? And there I am, only it’s not me, it’s Other Me. He’s all like, ‘Super Spy Project blah blah blah Fate of the world is at stake something something the secret files in this player spy stuff spy stuff spy stuff’. Oh, and his name is Xavier, which is a way cooler name than Paul.”

“No way!”

“Oh, yeah, dude. Look, I’ll play back the video for you.”

“DUDE! That’s you!”

“I know, right? Isn’t it crazy? Oh, hey, watch this. Here’s where Other Me says there are covert agents coming to kill me. I love this part.”
