You know, reading the "dog hair" story reminds me of the examples found in the essay "
The Missing Missing Reasons." (It's an old Reddit favorite.)
TL;DR version: When individual narcissists lose an argument in real life, they'll go out and get validation by smearing their opponents in front of their friendly Internet followers. When they do this, they tend to follow a consistent pattern: They'll always leave out the main argument presented by the opposing party, and fixate on certain details without providing the necessary context (like "dog hair") to make their opponents seem irrational or unhinged. (They, of course, present themselves as the calm, rational parties.) Liz's "consent accident" victim told him exactly what happened that made her feel violated -- but Liz pretends to not have been told this. Make no mistake, though --
he was.
Because Liz won't mention the entire tale, I'm going to try to put it together using the clues provided:
I assume that the victim became incapacitated when Liz was present. When she woke up, Liz claimed that nothing out of the ordinary happened while she was out. However, Liz was done in by the tell-tale dog hair . . .
If you own a pet that sheds, you know that hair can get on your furniture. As a result, it can get on your clothing and it can transfer to the clothing and furniture of others. Do you know where it
doesn't go? On your underwear, and certainly not inside of it. The only way it would get there is if you were disrobed in a "consent accident."
When Liz was confronted with this, he realized he was caught. When the story started to make the rounds and he knew it would get back to him, he went to the Internet to throw as much misdirection as possible to his Twitter followers -- using the same techniques outlined in the essay. However, if he was innocent of this he wouldn't need to do that -- let alone "regret it for the rest of [his] life." All he would have to do is to tell the full story.
