It wasn’t until the promos for Jarvis Cocker’s new album Further Complications started coming out that I realized he and Lost’s recently deceased Daniel Faraday are the same dude.
I know one’s a fictional character, and the other is a real guy from Sheffield, but perhaps if you add a timeline change here or there, Daniel takes those piano lessons and becomes one cool-ass motherfucker.
The only other explanation is that skinny, hairy nerds are inherently cool, and nobody informed my high school classmates.
