Any quoting is going to be selective. What is he going to do, quote the whole thing? Also, Kottke's whole deal is curating unusual, interesting stuff on the web, and I would say this rider is definitely both unusual and interesting. This is just what Kottke does, he points to stuff and says "hey, look at this." Maybe you have a problem with that entire enterprise, in which case fair enough, but he's not doing anything with respect to the rider that he doesn't do for whatever else is on the web that day. I agree that "crazy" is not exactly high praise, but it's a very overloaded term these days. I don't think it's meant to be as mean as Winer and everyone else is taking it.
