A Public Service Announcement
from the Fobcave

Folks, this is the internet. Always assume that whatever you say about someone will be read by that person, sooner or later. Especially if you refer to (a) that person's name, (b) an essay that person has written, or (c) an article that person has appeared in. Honestly, would you be this rude in person? Disagree with me all you want, but c'mon, let's not be mean. If you're not careful, you're going to hurt someone's feelings. Sure, it's his own damn fault for narcissistically Googling his name, but still...

  1. I'm impressed with how you handled that one. (Yeah, I'm snoopy.)

  2. Not just snoopy, but quite resourceful. I'm impressed that you found that, considering I didn't give you a whole lot of information to work with.

  3. Luckily nobody has ever been mean to me on the internet. Oh wait...

    But, c'mon. I can't go tracking down this info, I'm way too lazy. Give it to me on a silver platter, oh generous FOB!

  4. Thanks. We snoops are nothing if not resourceful. Sadly, Googling is one of the strongest skills I took with me from the Y.
