Am I going insane?

Am I going insane or was my life eerily similar to PA a few days ago. I'm serious. Now recently my family decided it would be a good idea to go visit some relatives out in the country. I live in Saskatchewan you see, we're 99.8% farmland. Anyways, out in a little one-horse town I endeavored to find and buy a DS. I know i'm behind the times, you see I had been too busy with a plethora of PC titles such as Homeworld 2 to buy a DS. So I find the only game store in town and enter to find an obviously bored young teenager with a greasy mullet, sweaty palms and a shirt that stunk of Doritos, building a wall of DS, Gamecube and SP boxes. I approached this repulsive form of life and say "I want to buy a DS" he replies to me "They're all being used" to which I answer "No they are not. You are obviously constructing yourself a... Nintendo fortress, I merely want to purchase one of your ramparts" he then narrowed his eyes and repeated himself. Becoming aware of the fact that this imbecile was not to be moved, I turned around and exited the store, swearing under my breath to return and, following the honoured traditions of Vauban, assault his bastions until he sold me a DS. It wasn't until a few blocks away that I realised how strangely similar that was to a Penny Arcade strip.

So am I going insane? Or did what I detailed actually happen, because I think it did but it's striking similarities to a webcomic makes me doubt my own soundness of mind.

    Maybe it was all a dream.

    Perhaps. I don't think so, after all I smelt the doritos on his shirt, and saw the sweat on his palms. It was all very realistic, despite the aformentioned similarities.
