I am removing myself from any mailing lists or communities that deal with Warren Ellis

[docwebster]

Why, you might ask?

Because of this entry, wherein he states:

"“Cigarettes are my food,” said Frank Zappa. And then he died of testicular cancer. Which came as no surprise to anyone who’d heard him wanking in recording studios for thirty years, but still. Anyone who names his kid Moon Unit is plainly asking for his balls to rot off. Because there is such a thing as karma. Welcome to the concept of universal payback."

Fuck off, Warren.

Okay, fine. I can deal with that. Warren himself might well indeed be a peachy keen kind of guy in this miasma we call real life. What I'm talking about is stepping away from the online persona, not the man himself.

Sure. My confusion still stands, from the years I've known you.

You've said worse about people who have made you mad. Ya see?

The way I figure it is this - if somebody on IRC is annoying me, I either leave the channel for a little bit and go back later, and put them on ignore and check back later. This, to me, is exactly like that. Does that make it any clearer? No harm, no foul. I don't piss on his parade, he doesn't piss on mine, life goes on and I let things simmer down then see what's going on from there.

I still want my Spider Jersualem glasses.
