He's been at the pixie dust...


I just spat my orange juice all over the place when I read this.

Check THIS out.

For those of you who are too lazy to check the link, let me summerise this for you.

"Robert Boyd, 45, from Broadlands in Carrickfergus, is accused of holding up staff at the Orchid shop in Belfast disguised in a wig, hat and glasses."

"He is accused of stealing two sets of bras, knickers, suspender belts and stockings from the shop on Lisburn Road on 14 December, 2005."

"He told defence counsel Anthony Cinnamond that within his small social circle he had been participating in a game known as Shadowrun.

The game was set in the future and the assumed characters were criminals, he said.

He told the court his character was a shaman, or magical elf, who carried a small Japanese sword as a weapon.

Mr Boyd, who said he visits a psychiatrist regularly, conceded that he "seemed to have blurred that line between reality and fantasy".
"


I don't recall ever blurring fantasy and reality when I was playing Shadowrun, but I wish now that I had :)

Oh sweet mummy daddy button that's funny.....
