    The invisible man is upset because his hot bar crush doesn’t know he exists (how could she, the dude’s invisible)

    I missed it the first time too, but that isn’t what he’s saying. She probably doesn’t even know I don’t exist. It’s got a double-negative. If you cancel them out, you get: “She probably doesn’t even know(s) I don’t exist.”

        This reminds me of Shrek when Pinocchio gets around lying by saying “I don’t know where he’s not,” but if you think about it for one second you’ll see that knowing where someone is also means you know where they aren’t at. So it’s still a lie.

              no, if you know one of the places where he is you can just observe him and he will be there and then you know exactly where he is and is not

                But you can’t just magically remotely view somewhere you can’t see.
