How annoying would it be to actually get a pony for your birthday? Especially one that might have just crapped in your office?

Which is probably WHY he did it. He's kind of subversive like that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That would be one of the things that would make me not like him. I see him as playful and subversive, but giving someone a pony unexpectedly is hella rude.

With any luck, he just rented it.

Anyone watching Criminal Minds? Alex O'Loughlin from Moonlight is guesting as a creepy scary killer with OCD tendencies.

He's extremely unnerving.

yeah, but the OCD thing didn't ring true for me. A guy who cuts his sandwich in perfect squares isn't going to drink from the milk carton. The guy who would lay out his clothes in perfect layers wouldn't go to the door with an untucked shirt.

What happens to OCD people when they snap? I thought that's what the milk carton was supposed to represent, but perhaps they get more OCD, not less.

I dunno.

Monk became a crazy person and was committed in Season 2 wasn't he?

Oh, you mean that isn't true to life?

That's how I took it-- as far as potential snappage, I suppose it's one of those things that varies from case to case.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I was half watching CM, was there an explination given for why he was walking down that alley?

No, they never did. I was ENTIRELY squicked by him putting BREAD in his gunshot wounds. I mean who the hell does that? Are they trying to use that to say he's extra crazy? It just doesn't make any sense.
