...going public through all those so-called social media*. Which is the reason why, years ago, the Facebook account I then created was under an assumed name (working for an American company implied inquisitive HR whose curiosity I did not want to indulge)
Anyway: thank you Mr Richard Dawkins! Exposing these people's inanity while staying phlegmatic as a British should be just made my day.
*: no 's' required, for 'media' is the plural for 'medium', but you knew that.

Oh, I have never done any social media under my real name. I knew this back in 2004! Unfortunately, I didn't know at the time about anonymizing my website info and I had a box of rotting meat delivered to my apartmentat Christmas that year.
That oversight has been long since corrected.
I do enjoy your blog, for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that you *do* blog, and well, the visual...stimulation...it provides. (And I do steal your menz to repost!)
Please go on stealing away! All these guys want their picture(s) to be shared in the first place (or so I hope, and I haven't received any privacy-oriented complaint so far).
Regarding Christmas well... I am sure you by now that Santa is just a rebrand of Priapus :-p
*you know by now*
Sh#t I hate when I do not properly reread my crap before hitting that orange button.
Oh, dear... I don't support repeating this kind of filth ever. Not even in jest. The people who write it are horrid. I pity them. But then, I guess they deserve, this, too. The anonymity afforded people thanks to the internet and social media has brought out the very worst in us. Before... it was okay to think that way, but one would never dream of writing it down or saying it. Now? It sickens me. All of it. Other than blogging? I have nothing to do with it. No Facebook for me. I do have a twitter account, but rarely use it. Kizzes.
I fully agree, Upton. Such a display of cowardice shows the actual lack from "sapiens" in so many homo-erectus.
