I totally agree. I wish everyone would stop acting like whiny assed little bitches towards this one journalist. Big fucking deal. He doesn’t like craft beer. Not the end of the world. He’s not gonna change his mind, so I don’t know why everyone is complaining so much and being so fucking sophomoric about this chump’s blog. He’s entitled to his opinion. Live with it and please drop it.

FooFaa 1:25 Wow, some of you folks are really giving this guy too much credit. This guy has a history of creating controversy for the sake of selling news, and you’re falling for it. 1/19/2007 9:29:03 PM

Can we get a shirt made that has both Edgeworth and Seate on it? I’ll buy three!

I think most of us have never heard of the guy and had no possible way of knowing that. Believe me, after I saw his response and continued idiocy, I knew he was simply a yellow journalist/troll.

But it’s still fun to cram the moron within these hallowed halls. wink

I don’t know if I should be mad or happy that I was quoted in his follow up article.

I really don’t care if this guy thinks that I am a geek. His opinion has 0% effect on my life. But I love beer, and when someone like this idiot bashes it and us, I feel the need to respond.

kegoguinness 45:0 The article is fluffy and whimsical, and the kind of thing that gets crammed into the last 15 seconds of a low-budget, small-town, half-hours T.V news broadcast, right after stories about "local cat a hero after saving drowning rat (and then eating it)" . What more needs to be said. We love beer, that’s all that counts. Cheers lads! 1/20/2007 11:33:08 PM

I wrote a letter of my own to this moron, though most of the content is OTM material, so I won’t post it here unless y’all wanna see it. Unlike my treatises requiring their own Cliffs Notes, it was two short paragraphs, one of which is mostly a quotation from someone else. It was a response to his blog entry on "Irresponsibility Rationalized" on a subject which OTM’ers recently came to know and love. As far as I’m concerned, this guy’s quick-two-strikes record in the reasoning-ability dept. makes him a waste of time.

His beer article is so stupid and so totally ignorant as to hardly require comment. You guys did spend way too much time responding to it.wink
