Latest example:

“His MO is obvious, he picks Internet fights to draw attention to himself.”

Dave Winer, talking about Jason — http://www.scripting.com/stories/2007/08/22/critiqueOfGnomedexDay2.html

Frankly, I’m jealous of Dave. He has this uncanny, spot-on ability to put words to completely galling behavior — in HIMSELF. He just happens to project it onto other people. As an EOW contributor I wish I had half the talent for describing Dave’s personality flaws that Dave would have if he’d turn it inward. ;-)

Those would make good wiki pages, no?

Mine is 1.

Karma never forgets being abused. Like most people I’m more complex than any boolean distinction (friend/enemy). Seeing the world in bits with a one bit register is a recipe for loneliness. Bits need to toggle.

“You’re spamming us now”. The originator of that “joke” is probably lost to history.

But Jason gets to his laptop and dredges up the old meme:

“I was Winered at GnomeDex”.

Dave went mediaval on his ass soon after in “meat space”.

So… was Jason hurt or did he play the “Blog card” to become “the story”. Either way… the Winer v. Calacanis ear has begun. It dovetails with several other log era meltdowns in civility:

Winer v. Cadenhead Winer v. Curry Winer v. Ruby Winer v. Pilgrim Winer v. Powers Winer v. O’Reilly Winer v. Sessum Winer v. Rageboy

…. and back through generations to Dave’s early years.
