I mean, it wasn't an especially good zing, because it kind of came out of nowhere (Dan has never said anything that harsh to me, even in person) and wasn't really accurate (unless mentioning to your friends that you wrote something that you thought they might be interested in = self-promotion), but it looks like she was all too eager to support it.

jaymc the zing sees no colors, knows no boundaries, accepts no distinctions. we are all potential givers and receivers of the zing. who among us has not been zinged? you cannot control the zing so much as channel it or suffer through it.

in summary, chill the fuck out.

Look, the zing itself bothered me because it was from someone I consider a good friend of mine and a decent human being and I wasn't sure why he felt the way he did, and I've still not gotten a satisfactory answer from him. At the time, most people on the Chicago thread were like, "dude, Dan, wtf?" -- the consensus was that he had definitely crossed a line.

So it sucks to see that Laurel thought that the zing was casually funny enough to repost on the Noise Board -- but not entirely surprising, given that she has a tendency to interpret my (fairly innocuous) words and behavior in a way that has resulted in cruel, judgmental comments (cf. the Chicago thread yesterday and in a private e-mail dated October 24, 2006).

seriously jaymc, despite the occasional database joke i actually like you okay but this is one of those "hating on peanuts"/"i think burritos are vile" things that makes me write off a human entirely.

Tom Cruuise's aliens should probe his anus. Then he would be gay too and a scentist.

jeff, Tuesday, 19 June 2007 19:46 (sixteen years ago) link

No. I had sent out a mass e-mail to most of the Chicago thread trying to gauge whether people were mad at me, as someone had implied to me at a bar. Nearly everyone responded with, "Dude, it's cool, we don't have a problem with you." And I was like, "Okay, cool, that's what I thought." Except for Laurel, who went to great length to criticize me for reacting the way I did.

Why waste precious webspace with this chocolate killer when the angelic Kate Beckinsale is right there in your backyard. I wish she was in my backyard. She has a nice backyard.

Ally, it's called Gmail. You can look up the date when e-mails were sent.

this is one of those "hating on peanuts"/"i think burritos are vile" things that makes me write off a human entirely.

Well, this is one of those What you do yourself has not much to do with this narrative you publicly project onto others where everyone else is more practical and more knowledgeable and were given a headstart that you didn't get so why should *you* know about the world of objects? I mean, I'm sure it's at least half an act because a person could hardly make his own TOAST if he were really like "why would *I* know about how wheat is ground?" but you still pull that act out all the time. And mostly I'm just really offended that after I took your query seriously against my own better judgement and researched it for you and made it palatable, you admitted in print that you just couldn't be fucked to read it yourself. Fine. Let other people do your work, see how many of them you can keep convincing when you cry "wolf" things that makes me write off a human entirely.
