Charlie Kaufman in tights. Mmmmm. And at a dog run. And doing yoga. But not at the same time.

In an interview for LA.com, Evan Henerson drew this anecdote from Charlie:

While he was a student at Boston College, a dance/movement class was held in a rehearsal studio overlooking the highway, opening up Kaufman and his tights-wearing classmates to laughter from construction workers who could see inside.

"I just really felt embarrassed and silly about it. Then, through my 20s, after I had given it up, I was kind of thinking, `God, I really loved this thing, and I'm not doing it, and I should be doing it.' But I became increasingly self-conscious." (Source)

Instantly three words spring to mind: fan art contest. But that would be mean, right?

Meanwhile, here's Charlie interviewed at a dog run:
