It worked on the Candyman. Maybe it will bring him out of the woodwork here.

The best thing about Metz leaving SI was the fact it was Crow posting his real name. Heh.

Heh.


Well, let me finish: He does Google searches on his name and calls the boss of whomever was talking about him and threatens lawsuits.

With my name I'd have to be a serial killer, porn star or politician to get any hits on google.

I could google my name and the street I live on and there would be two different people.

Oh, I thought you meant he was googling his own name.

Some of us are vain like that...

1. He googles his own name.

2. He finds out who is "talking" about him.

3. He calls their boss.

4. He threatens a lawsuit.

At Wxing, Optimus Prime made a thinly veiled threat to call my boss and the "AHA" (which is either the American Hospital, Association or the American Heart Association).

I had the better of him in a few contentious debates, so he posted my real life initials (MH) and something to the effect of 'did I think I would be able to attack him with impunity?' Then mentioned my boss and the AHA.

Heh.

I think it hurt his feelings when I told him that I was semi-retired and doing consulting work now (essentially my boss is me).

I wasn't even really rude to OP - I just disagreed with him and argued him down. He went mental on me and started posting spam over and over again (which I deleted, then i gave him a 48-HR read-only cool off period).

It didn't really help. He also was mad that I didn't ban Hedge at the megasite for some insult (which I never even saw).

too funny

facebook has really changed that - either for the better or worse. I'm not sure which


Crow is the only one I know that has meltdowns, and he does that because he is bored more than any real threat to his personal life

Yeah, I was once. Made a killing and haven't had to work since. I am getting bored though.
