Michael Cera's strange 8 month 'friendship' with an unknown texter

Whenever a friend asks me if I have any interesting tales involving text-messaging, I think of Jeremy. Jeremy, a man I am no longer in touch with, was someone I once considered a friend. It started out very simply: one day I received a text message from a phone number I did not recognize. Intrigued, I replied, and thus began an intimate and illuminating correspondence. I wish to share with you now my record of this peculiar kinship.

Pretty entertaining read, but if I can summarize, basically Michael Cera (the actor) gets a text from a guy he's never met in his life.  And from reading it, it looks like he began to communicate with him in a fictionalized version of himself.  (otherwise, he's a weird dude). Michael does most of the texting, and does a lot of over-sharing, and at least one time pretends to angry with him after Jeremy stands him up when they were supposed to meet.  So finally Jeremy invites him over to a party and one of his friends' home.

 

And this is where things get weird. He never really explained what exactly what happened, but from I can figure-- Jeremy (the unknown guy) brings along this girl that he likes ( or maybe they were dating, I have no clue).  She was fan of his movies.  Something happened, and in the texts Michael said something about kissing her, and made a comment about her having a nice butt.  Jeremy ended up changing his number and stopped all communication with him.

 

I'm assuming Michael Cera did this as a social experiment.  Found it interesting, and very very weird.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
