Comments on: Flattery Will Get You Everywhere http://leaveitatthebeep.com/2008/05/07/flattery-will-get-you-everywhere/ Leave it at the Beep Wed, 20 Aug 2008 07:04:22 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Anonymous Coward http://leaveitatthebeep.com/2008/05/07/flattery-will-get-you-everywhere/#comment-11342 Anonymous Coward Sun, 08 Jun 2008 21:24:14 +0000 http://leaveitatthebeep.com/?p=198#comment-11342 I googled my proxy server's IP address and came across this old comment of mine. I'm surprised that you turned my off-handed comment into an entire post. That's a lot of recognition you just handed me on a plate, and I don't think my comment deserved that much attention. Actually, I'd like to apologise for hurting your feelings. I was in a pretty bitter mood that night and I guess I just vented my acidic feelings on the first blogger I came across.

Yeah, so much for the myth of rich Americans. We aren't rich anymore because we donate all of our money to bug eaters.

I am so happy you posted about this comment (which I had seen that you had left public), and was OH-so-hoping that you would respond to it in a post. (Because, um, hey, that's what <b>I</b> would have done! *wink*) Except I may have gone the whole proverbial nine yards with a public post filled with a <i>fountain</i> of obscenities and a direct IP map to the user's server, complete with a copy of my email to the server's administrator denoting gross misuse and harassment. (But I suspect that, since you are a Lady, you did that behind the scenes. *smile*) Brava, my dear! If I did not before, I now officially love you.

I look at it today and see what a pathetic loser this guy must be. Colonel: Doesn't it though? I mean, why sign your real name and email when you can go the distance as an anonymous coward?

If he's such a wheeler-dealer, why doesn't he pay for your hosting? He's in South Africa, by the way. I'm guessing he's an Afrikaaner. They grow some simple-minded angry white boys down there. What a douchebag!
