Price of Fame + Ushering in a New Era of Opaqueness
When you author a blog that gets 40, 50 or even more visits every day, you're a pretty powerful person, which means that everybody is gonna want a piece of you. Or want you to put a piece of them on the internet. It's the price one must pay. Like this conversation I had with Mitch.
(Another part of being powerful and famous is that you have to censor things.)
Mitch: Sitting around reminiscing about the old apt complex with some friends
Me: Ah the redneck Melrose Place
Mitch: U forgot debauchery-laden
Me: Meh [redacted] didn't even [redacted] with all our friends
Mitch: [redacted][redacted] with [redacted] and [redacted][redacted]. then [redacted] [redacted] and [redacted] all [redacted].
Me: Oh yeah. Haha
Mitch: Looks like you and I are the only ones who didn't [redacted]
Me: As far as we remember haha
Mitch: Eww
Me: [redacted]
Mitch: Write about me!
Me: Like a biography?
Mitch: I was thinking blog. But biography might be yr ticket to big time
Me: True. I'd do this convo but I don't want everybody to know [redacted]
Mitch: Invent a convo. Or just tell them this one is a lie. HEY EVERYBODY - THESE ARE ALL LIES! There. I did it for you.
Me: But my sterling reputation! BTW iPhone auto correct gives "whitish" for "whorish"
Mitch: [redacted]
Me: [redacted] [redacted]
