Staring horror-struck into the celebrity mirror

I've now had time to review the David Mitchell interview you all kindly pointed out. The results are frightening. He's both creepy and absolutely right about everything. As am I.

We share a birthdate, background, opinions and quietly devastating good looks. Ahem.

Oh, and this in common:
One major change even Mitchell can't have avoided must have been his new attractiveness to the opposite sex. For one thing, he has undergone a quite dramatic, A-list-style weight loss

I've been reading The Years of Rice and Salt by Kim Stanley Robinson, which I'm really enjoying, but it has drew me into forming the hypothesis that Voley and David Mitchell are in fact twins who's souls got separated in the netherworld and on reincarnation entered the wombs of different mothers by mistake.

I intend to conduct an experiment to test this by affecting changes in the life of the Vole (For example making him move from his little book lined hollow into an apartment that befits a gentleman of his stature) then stalking David Mitchell to see if these changes are reciprocated. If this doesn't work I may have to kidnap Mitchell and stick pins in him, like some sort of living voodoo doll.

I loaned you that book, so that's very unfair!
If I lose my job, I intend to hang around playgrounds until Mitchell bribes me to leave the country.
You should be working on your thesis.

Mitchell has clearly modelled himself on you.
