Why is it that everything I read in this blog pisses me off?
Uh, because you're human, and like the rest of us, you take incredibly trivial things far too personally? Seriously, if I asked you whether somewhere on this Earth we can find someone whose views are diametrically opposed to yours AND they express them in a manner you find obnoxious, I guess you would say that statistically, that person--call him "un-unalone"--is out there somewhere.
And no, you wouldn't get pissed off knowing that un-unalone exists and is being vehemently wrong every time he speaks. But if we conjure un-unalone up for you and you read what he's actually writing, you get angry.
I guess we'd all like to be perfectly Zen about this, and shrug our shoulders, but we aren't and we don't.
FWIW, I think Jeff Atwood is pretty-much the un-raganwald, right down to being waaaaaaaaaaay more likable than I am :-)
