A couple years ago Jonathan Pryce of Brazil fame stopped me on the streets of Brooklyn to ask me directions. I recognized him, but I couldn't tell from where. Assuming it was some nerd event—because I could recall him wearing his Pirates of the Caribbean garb and concluded he was probably a LARPer—I was like, "Hey there, how's it going? What's new? Good to see you," and trying to avoid revealing that I couldn't remember his name or how I knew him. He was very cordial and in the end I couldn't help him, because I'm useless with directions. "Good luck. See you later."
Several blocks away I realized my mistake, and suddenly became intensely embarrassed. I'm not entirely sure why.
