Er...taken, not taking.
Still pre-coffee here.
Actually I am thinking he might have some website he made, some sort of joke that either pissed off someone or else just misled them into thinking he was someone he was not. So it might turn out that they are after him for that. Or maybe they are disguised aliens that are after him for that thing he found last week.
cross posting off an email...
My crazy idea so far.
Basically everything the guy does on the internet is not what it seems and comes to bite him at the same time. The girl he IMs is underage when he meets her in person. The person his flame warning with on the book fan forum is the author who is really a vampire and wants to kill him for the flaming, and is also the 'underage' girl (really 700 years old) and in love with his other screename for a fanfic he wrote (as a joke) that made her think he really could understand her. The thing he bought on email is a magical item of dangerous power and the ancient society wants it back. The game he plays is a training ground for a alien space fleet. The fleet wants to hire him and the enemies of the fleet want to kill him since the game has been real and he has been slaughtering them. The email scammer he was playing along with for kicks is real and has power enemies that try to kill him. Etc. oh, and an evil overlord wants to take him out (or ally with him) because the gag site he put up was too realistic.
For extra twists the people trying to get him keep killing each other off by mistake so he does not realize what is happening for a while.
Never heard of it. What was the plot?

Wow...that looks impressively...ummm...B rated?
Could be rather fun to redo, though, actually!
Maybe replace bats with some other critter.
Major B-rated...with a fake looking bat slid down a visible wire.
But I liked the story...
Devil Squirrel
Demon Toaster?
I guess I could have Bela add a phenyl group to Flubber that turns appliances into demon appliances...
Oh dear...
I never finished my Demon Toaster / ninja llama story last year. Maybe will one of these days.
I also had a talking badger named Guido.
No pawn shop, though.
Mmmmmm....prawns....
Prawns are tasty.
However, they make lousy main characters.
Prawns killed the thread and made me hungry.
Maybe prawns should be an antagonist instead.
