Somewhere up above I saw Dibs on his blow-up dolls.

Are we sure that LH considers them part of his (former?) phantasy life.

From what someone said (perhaps even Chongo) that's generally believed to be his closest approach to a real interpersonal relationship.

I believe a common understanding is that the reality of the deranged is just as real as anyone's reality, but just a different reality than the rest of us see. The only phantasies that should be taken from him are those that he understands are phantasies.

Arbitrarily attempting to force him to accept a reality that isn't "real" to him could turn him into a babbling idiot speaking only nonsense and fomenting discord and dissension with no hope of ever being acceptable in any normal society.

Radical pronouncements similar to his opening "promise" a sometimes indicative of an intent to adopt the lifestyle and mannerisms of a cult, or sometimes even a criminally inclined "gang."

Has anyone observed unusual numbers of motorcycles in his vicinity, and has he shaved his head as yet, and does he have any (new?) tatoos?

Obviously an "intervention" is needed; but we must wait for the further evolution of this personality change before we can safely choose the most effective form and make proper choice of the participants we charge with beating the crap out of him until he comes to his senses.
