There’s a lad a work who I’ll call WorkLad. I’ve blogged about him in the past, conversations with him are so bizarre and quickly turn so surreal that much of the working day is spent boggling at the workings of his brain.
I think I’ve mentioned it before, he not only watches WWE wrestling, but truly believes everything he sees. One of his current obsessions is the death of Eddie Guerrero.
During one of these discussions he was telling us about the wrestling pedigree of Eddie and his family. Eddie’s dad used to wrestle, his cousin Chavo still does, and his friend Rey Mysterio’s fathers were all wrestlers.
Intrigued as to how Rey could have more than one father, we pushed him on the issue, this is the answer we got:

So we understood where his misunderstanding had come from, but as to the actual explanation of how a person could physically have four fathers, he explained it was:

And in his head, that entirely answered the question.
But then this was the same WorkLad who listened in on a long discussion about time travel and whether it’s ever going to be possible, with a number of logical and scientific points raised. Towards the end of the discussion he chipped in with the authoritative “Yes it’s possible, Marty McFly did it”.
And in his head he’d just conclusively proved his point and won yet another argument.
