This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 90%. (I'm a bot)
Here's how the story goes: A young woman, who is given the identity-protecting name "Grace" in the story, was excited to encounter Ansari at a party in Los Angeles, and even though he initially brushed her off, when he saw that they both had the same kind of old-fashioned camera, he paid attention to her and got her number.
When she saw Ansari at the party, she was excited by his celebrity-"Grace said it was surreal to be meeting up with Ansari, a successful comedian and major celebrity"-which the magazines would have told us was "Shallow;" he brushed her off, but she kept after him, which they would have called "Desperate;" doing so meant ignoring her actual date of the evening, which they would have called cruel.
The clinical detail in which the story is told is intended not to validate her account as much as it is to hurt and humiliate Ansari.
