Stephen Elliott Interviews Stephen Elliott, Insults Fly
“Stephen Elliott: I don’t generally hook up with people when I first meet them. And also, when you’re on the road, I don’t know, it’s kind of awkward. What I long for when I travel isn’t sex, it’s intimacy. I don’t know if you can have intimacy with someone you just met. Why are we talking about this?
SE: You’re interviewing yourself. You know that don’t you?
SE: Yes. I’m sorry.”
Our own Stephen Elliott’s got a pretty damn funny Self-Interview over at The Nervous Breakdown.

I tried to interview myself once. However, a fight broke out after the first extremely personal question. I was forced to leave the room. I didn’t speak to myself for two months, instead passing messages to myself through my wife. It ended with therapy. Never again.
