In response to Dan Lyons on his nom de plume blog FakeSteveJobs post "Oxymoron of the week" (WARNING: This blog post has quite a bit of profanity in it - thus my response). I am unsure if my comment will be posted, but vile garbage like this should be pointed out as the wrong way to blog... even if you disagree with something. In my opinion, if you would not get in front of a crowd of people and say the same words, you should re-write it,
--------------- My Response -------------------
Well, I have never visited this blog before so I guess you can thank Ed Brill for a momentary reader - and I do mean momentary.
So - looks like you have a mouth only a septic-tank technician could love. That's nice and all but this makes you irrelevant. Your thoughts are about as relevant as Lisa Lamponelli slamming on a celebrity during a celebrity roast. Using profanity may be funny, but utterly pointless.
So, to get to the point of my comment. The fact that you have this nom de plume does not detach you from Forbes in my opinion. Luckily, I no longer subscribe to Forbes and will remember not to subscribe as long as you are attached to them.
As a qualification of my comments, I am a Lotus Software supporter. I was driven to this vile attempt at forming English words by Ed Brill's blog. Simply put, if I had run across this garbage against any other software, my post would read somewhat similar.
True, you do have a right to your own opinion. We live in the United States so that is your right and I do not take that away from you. My objection to the existance of this, dare I say "blog", is you offer nothing but a place to flame and spew profanities. You offer the toilet of the IT world for all to vomit and deficate in.
As for your blatent attack on Mr Brill, you are subject to your opinion of others, but personal attacks are so childish. When you decide that your blog needs to be cleaned up and you wish to post an entry that would create a true discussion, let me know. I have no problem having an intelligent discussion - just leave your filth to yourself and state some type of facts and opinions that would be worth my time to read.
