Saturday, March 02, 2002 Important Clarification b!X writes: "As RB says, the head of Xybernaut is a fucknozzle." Now, wait just a moment. In making references of this sort it is extremely critical to get your citations correct. I said no such thing. What I said was that you should decide for yourself whether he was a fucknozzle based on the Wired story. Actually, David Weinberger gets it right when he says: "I know for a fact that RB ran the blog entry at least in part so he could use the word 'fucknozzle.'" Precisely. It is a matter of record -- and common knowledge -- that my professional work entails the researching of humorous Internet-mediated neologisms, their propagation via the World Wide Web, and the crucial social role they play in online satire and parody. I have no personal acquaintance with the head of the Xybernaut Corporation. So how would I be able to state definitively that he is a fucknozzle? For all I know, he may not be a fucknozzle. Perhaps he's a really nice fellow. 10:42 AM | link | |
