I saw Thomas Pynchon at a grocery store in Manhattan yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to bother him or take photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Wha?” but he kept cutting me off and going “Wha? Wha? Wha?” and ashing his joint in my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckling as I went off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen bananas in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be an anarchist not bound by rules, but eventually turned back around and took out his credit card.

When she took one of the bananas and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electromagnetic entropy,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a phenomenon. After she scanned each banana and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by singing "Money (That's What I Want)" really loudly.
