When I read, early in the story "Then again, there are thirteen billion people out there in the world", I knew something was up, and the narrator had to be standing with a foot in each of two parallel universes.

Not so scary, vaguely hot. Yet, once again, I am staying at the wrong hotels.

Nah it was deleted, maybe because it violates rule #1 of the sub and maybe because of the gay erotica.
