So uhh

A Marvel editor tried to troll me on Twitter tonight.

The funny thing is that I immediately knew who it was.  Man, what is that guy's deal?

More.

Anyway.  I'm bored/easily-amused enough that I don't mind name-dropping the guy and seeing what happens, but I'm not in a hurry to get in a debate with him either.  I'm not even reading Marvel at this point, 'cept Deadpool.

Thanks, Thad. Now he's gonna show up on the forum and start flinging poo everywhere.

I think it would be genuinely hilarious if a Marvel Editor went to the trouble of registering for the brontoforumus just to yell at us.

...I still haven't actually said his name, you know.

Me too.

They say if you stand in front of a mirror and say "Stan Lee" 99 times, he'll punt you in the groin and steal all your ideas.

Ha, apparently he's resorted to ban-evading/sock-puppeting on Brothers' blog. What a maroon.

As amusing as it would be to have him come here and yell at us, he also seems to bring his fans/defenders along with him, and I'm not sure if whoever's running this place these days would enjoy having to deal with the troll accounts that would inevitably crop up.

OTOH, if anyone could drive him to the point where he just flips out and starts posting epithet-laden rants, it'd be this community.

At least he's got the self-awareness to call himself "Wanker".

I'm game if you guys are.  It's getting pret-ty dull around here.  And if 4thletter is any indication it's more of a trickle than a deluge.

Just lock them all in the Thunderdome.

So someone sent me something on "klout" so I checked it out. I had the most klout on march 1st and then it went down slightly. BUT! It doesn't tell me what happened to give me that klout on March 1st or why it decreased after that date! It's just changing numbers without telling me the reason.
Nothing I click on gives me a concrete answer.
In conclusion:
Klout is dumb.

[Thad]

My opinion on scoring systems is pretty well-recorded at this point, but, to restate, I think even the clear and transparent ones (karma, Like/Dislike, +1, ...) are dumb.  There's some value to a Slashdot/Reddit-style system where community moderation selects which posts are visible and which are hidden, but even then I stopped reading Slashdot sometime around 2004 and Digg not long after.

Not sure when it happened, but you can Facebook like things on Myspace now. The circle is complete.

[Ted Belmont]

People still use Myspace?

[Thad]

So I know what you've all been wondering:

What does Wil Wheaton think about Google Plus?

[Kayma]

I fucking love Tumblr and I'm a little embarrassed but at the end of the day I don't think I care because it's full of Sailor Moon and Adventure Time.
