Dave Wants People to be Nice

January 3rd, 2008 by EyeOnWiner

Writes Dave:

If I could be Emperor of the Universe for five minutes I’d outlaw all holidays in November, December and January and would declare that everybody should be nice to everyone all the time, no matter what season it is!

Of course, what Dave really means is that he’d make everyone be nice to him all the time, since he surely couldn’t bring himself to return the favor.

I wonder how long in 2008 Dave will go before he says something not-nice about someone in a very public place. Bets, anyone? I’d guess the over/under is sometime next week, as more people start to say “FlickrFan is idiotic.”


Also, I thought this was obvious, but I haven’t seen it explicitly mentioned yet — every piece of Dave’s new “screensaver” has already been done. All you have to do is set FeedDemon (or any number of other clients) to automatically download enclosures into your screensaver folder.

    Now we’ve got proof of dave’s megalomania, in his own words. Most people do NOT sit around imagining themselves to be Emperor of the Universe.

    …they don’t?

    Hmm…

    Well perhaps I am wrong. I remember what a friend of mine once said, she is one of the world’s leading psychiatrists, she said, “Everyone is neurotic to some degree, we all think neurotic thoughts occasionally. The difference between a neurotic and a psychotic is that a neurotic thinks neurotic thoughts but keeps them to himself, a psychotic tells them to other people, and ACTS on them.” dave is psychotic. Sure maybe you or I have fantasies about what we’d do if we had the power. But dave acts on his neurotic fantasies and expects people to respect him for expressing his psychotic ideas.

    Sarcasm is completely lost on the internets.

    If Dave invented something to fix that, he’d be my hero forever.
