excowboy: I promise that I'll be above this sort of hoo-hah most of the time. I think I can lapse into a little infighting now and again, can't I? AFter all, people who neglect their vices completely tend to die early.

Lighten up; whatever you think about Dan Lyons’ other work, FSJ is consistently funny and irreverant. Joey, I’ve enjoyed reading your blog for a while now and thought you would be above this kind of infighting.

[...] In the article, Gruber does a good job of reminding us of where Dan Lyons is coming from – remember, he writes for Newsweek, which is a pretty sad substitute for Time, where the preferred style of reportage was described to me by a friend of mine who wrote for them as “sustained obviousness”.

Not only is Dan a hypocrite, he basically *stole* all the things that made FSJ popular in the first place! His usage of “Tard” in compound words was *stolen*. His “pet names” for industry big wigs? Stolen. He wrote a piece about the Yahoo SCOX message board called Revenge of the Nerds a few years ago. That is where Lyons *ripped off* everything that made an otherwise humourless moron into audacious industry darling FSJ!

While the real Steve Jobs must be relieved, the competition in Redmond can be added to the list of the upset. The usually reticent Bill Gates already had some not-so-namaste things to say about the whole Daniel Lyons affair.
