Question and Answer Time with Deimos

Before I delve into the happenings of more idiots, I think it is time to answer some questions about this blog that have been asked by my "throngs" of readers. Again, these are real questions that have piled up over time. I am getting tired of answering them.

1. So [Deimos], why don't you use your real name, or that of the companies you work for?

Two words. Plausible deniability. Companies get into a big stink when you reveal a few of your inner workings to a public. And since things posted on "The Intrawebs" is serious business, and therefore, considered published works, it is best to remain anonymous. Granted, most of my readers probably know me, and probably know where I work, but its always better to cover your ass than to risk getting sued or something awful like that. And to prove this point home, for the people who asked this question, I didn't use your name.

2. I mean, really, these aren't true stories, are they?

What makes this blog so neat is that these are in fact true stories. All of them. The TPS Reports, the articles, and even my own cynical thoughts are all true. Its sad that there are that many stupid people out there, and as the blog grows, I think we will all get a greater sense at just how bad our gene pool has gotten. It might be time to start that Revolution I was thinking about.

3. You ever thought of publishing your blog into a book once it gets large enough, or even writing a book about it?

Two words. Plausible deniability. Last thing I want is some asshole Publisher getting money off my idea while I get sued. We all know they would want names, and then I would get mentioned in there somewhere. Ugh. Besides I wouldn't want fame and fortune to go to my head. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2c4L4CPfQY8

4. I got one for your blog. You will never believe...

Stop. Just stop. Write your own damn blog. I don't mind hearing your stories, but they aren't my experiences. My blog. My shit. My experiences. If you want your tales told in story and/or published, either hire me or go write your own. And, unlike some, I am not easy or cheap. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2QccunIArs

5. You really going to be able to do 1 blog a week?

Hopefully. I mean, if I don't, the World explodes, so you better keep your fingers crossed. Sometimes I may not be able to, but the goal is to do at least 1 a week. Sometimes, you might be getting more, in which case, you should be even more grateful I let you glimpse into my small World.

Sorry about the lack of TPS Report or amusing article today. I am sure sometime this week, someone will do something stupid, and we can all have a good laugh at it.
