This was something Descartes said, wasn’t it?

Dear me. This has caused quite a commotion in your little brains, hasn’t it? I’m cute.

I can’t believe you think therefore you am, this is just pathetic. I agree with a lot of your philosophy, but I think here you are wrong because you say wrong things that are wrong because they are wrong. You guys must have a lot of spare time on your hands - only joking! Keep up the good work, although you are wrong.

Yeah, but what did you mean by ‘grab a reference’ exactly?

Yeah, I agree with Charlie. Y’know, what he said just then.

Hi, Dan. What you been up to lately?

This is what I’m talking about. I take no pleasure in annoying people on forums. In fact, it takes up a very small percentage of what I do. If this site was a bit more positive generally about the fact that I'm writing a book then it would be a *great* thing.  But you're all so arrogant that you don't even ask me about it half the time.  Your aggressive tone suggests that you don't even care about me and my work.  If only you could learn to like me then this would go a long way to satisfying my friends down the pub with whom I've raised the above points.  Lighten up.  You sound like a bunch of students with your generalising.  Why not try something new and original.  As I always say, 'Hello you, stuff up, grasp the candle and bang on'.

But since you asked, yes, I am writing a book at the moment and it's going very well, thank you very much.  Why should I be taken to task for this by a bunch of whining self-obsessed coke-heads drunk on self-importance and loathing?  You're like cattle in a mad way - cattle on bikes.

And another thing, why is it that whenever anybody mentions my work they always seem to have to have an opinion?  I mean, what's the point of that?  *I* like it.  Surely that's all that matters?  Be more positive towards me generally and maybe you'll have hit on your hands.

I mean, surely we can all pull together and create something which is truly beneficial to the world instead of automatically slagging off everything that I do.  Frankly it annoys me that comments like the above can be...oh, hang on, my dinner’s ready.

Descartes was better on the radio, but none of you fuckers heard it, did you? We hope you all die.
