haircut

I have a friend who loves World of Warcraft. "I'm addicted," he says. "Addicted." We're in a meeting today with all gamers. "Hey, get this," he says to us during a break. "You know how I like to play female characters in role-playing games? Well, yesterday my wife came home with a new haircut and it was EXACTLY -- I kid you not, EXACTLY like my character's in World of Warcraft."

We laughed. "Dude, maybe she's trying to tell you something," said another guy. "Exactly," said my friend. "I opened up the game so I could compare. They're, like, identical. It's eerie."

That's Chekhov.
