You are extremely strange, but I am touched to have been included in this dream.

Hhehe, thanks.

YOu know, every time I met a celebrity in my dreams, you're there. Do you remember me telling everyone about my dream about how you and I were working on the perfect breakfast cereal and I said that David Bowie was hot so he leaned over to say "Thank you"?

I think you were there when I met Del Boy too. Hmm...perhaps you're gonna be famous one day? :)

Perhaps!
You can be in my entourage, but don't make me go bankrupt like M.C. Hammer.

Ooh - what position would I have in your entourage? I promise not to bankrupt you but I can't promise that I won't leech and take occasional advantage.

The DSM IV is a big book listing all the ways you can be crazy, and how to recognise them. Psychiatrists, psychologists and the like use it for diagnosis. I don't remember what DSM stands for (something with Diagnosis and Manual, I think) but the IV reflects the fact that it's the fourth major revision. Sometimes they downgrade something, because they've decided it's not actually a mental illness, it's just a personality trait or something (this happened with passive-aggressive behaviour, which was considered loony when it was first described, rather than merely annoying as shit), and sometimes they add something new that's been identified, like if someone invents a new sort of madness, and they refine the existing definitions based on more recent research, to make them more accurate and helpful. There is a LOT of debate among psych professionals about what should be in the book, how it should be described and defined, how to distinguish between disorders with very similar symptoms, whether something is real or the crazy people are ( ... )
