This will either be my most highly upvoted post ever or will get me hellbanned, but that MOC blog has got to be some of the most aggrandizing, self-obsessed nonsense I have ever read. It's like he's living in his own fantasy world where he is simultaneously the smartest person on Earth and incredibly oppressed.

The idea that someone is going through life thinking that way is more than a little depressing.

oh man, xah lee is still going strong? i remember him trolling usenet in the 90s!
