Seconded. Didn't Mr. Shaw give up his previous blog because it was just a silly obnoxious persona that he had made up, and he instead wanted to write like the big grownup he actually is? Uh huh.
- zedshaw 17y agoLooking at your comments you like The New Yorker. I would respectfully say you are not in my target demographic. I'm looking for people who have something we like to call "a sense of humor". The problem is, the New Yorker has trained you to think little cartoons that aren't really funny are HILARIOUS because they're in the New Yorker. In reality, they aren't, and everyone knows you can't explain why they're funny. Now, if you prefer, I can probably put a few totally boring cartoons and use the really big clean words projectileboy (love that professional sounding name) but where's the fun in that? And for the record, I gave up the very over the top version of this. Having a few funny offensive phrases is light years away from a blog with neon strippers.
- pinchyfingers 17y agoNot that it contributes much to the conversation, or has anything to do with your article, but I AM in favor of neon strippers.
- projectileboy 17y agoFair enough, dude. Perhaps we can agree that a sense of humor is in the eye of the beholder. I was simply commenting on the fact that you had famously switched off ZSFA because you were going to tone it down, and your most recent post seemed awfully similar to stuff you had done in the past, which of course is your right. Furthermore, I made the mistake of engaging in a forum which is no longer what it once was. I'll try to spare HN (aka "Reddit 2") my humorless comments from now on.
