Full disclosure: I like Auren Hoffman. But even if I didn't (and I wrote a whole book full of dishing about people I don't like), your relentless battering is out of all proportion to any crimes. The guy does a lot of good things and doesn't deserve this much vitriol.

I don't get this news item. You need to explain it more to me.

Did you say "news"? Nick, that's the funniest thing you've written so far. So you're now banning people for doing the opposite of "brownbacking" you?

Attention Everyone: wear many layers and take extra precautions when "bold-fronting" Nick Denton.

Whew, I hope that keeps the gay sperm from breast-stroking in our faces! Wait, doesn't Soup have like a thousand "fronts" anyway?

Soup can rail all (s)he wants (or, based on the editor's response, maybe (s)he can't), but as valleyspeak, Brownbacking has legs.

Come to think of it, my last boss was an all-time Brownbacking champion. I can remember my joy when she finally removed from her office that damn picture of herself with Bob Dole...

Hey, Soup, you've been bored by the site for a couple of months now, and haven't really contributed anything interesting yourself to the comments. So I think you should try another site for your tech news, and find somewhere else to complain. Bye!

3 posts about Auren in one day?

This one is just weak- no pathetic; you already mentioned his Hall of Fame in a previous post.

You are turning a photo-op into an allusion to gay unprotected sex? That's really ... insightful. Did this insight come from all the time you obviously have spent rubbing a load out to Auren's Wall of Fame?

Please stop going back to the same topics... it is like making the same bad joke over and over, it just isn't that funny the second time around.
