The uncanny (German: Das Unheimliche, "the opposite of what is familiar") is a Freudian concept of an instance where something can be both familiar yet alien at the same time, resulting in a feeling of it being uncomfortably strange.[1] Because the uncanny is familiar, yet incongruous, it often creates cognitive dissonance within the experiencing subject, due to the paradoxical nature of being simultaneously attracted to yet repulsed by an object. This cognitive dissonance often leads to an outright rejection of the object, as one would rather reject than rationalize, as in the uncanny valley effect.

For those TPF members who arrived after Chris Doty left London, some facts might help.
• Chris Doty is as cool, quiet, calm, and Zen as bag of ferrets.
• Chris Doty is as sane and rational as bag of ferrets.
• Chris Doty is as attractive, good looking and charming as — well, that is for the female of the species to determine.
