Sometimes, I just love being rude

[ciphergoth]

I'm sorry, it's a guilty pleasure I know, but I just sent Fritz Klein a snotty email and it fills me with pleasure. He asked "Can you please send me: dates, urls and e-mail contacts" about BiCon 2003 since apparently he "cannot find information on the web" about it.

I replied:

I'm curious to know what measures you tried to find BiCon 2003 before mailing me. I tried every approach I could think of, and every one worked first time. http://www.google.com/ in particular was entirely successful.

Running BiCon is as you probably know a great deal of work. It would be even more work if we were obliged to find information for our attenders that they could *very* easily find for themselves. Fortunately only a very few people are rude enough to expect this of us.

(For those who don't know: Klein is a painfully self-important American academic who has written some about bisexuality. I'll save the detailed description for another time...)

he was very rude to us poor sods who were un the front desk when he arrived at BiCon 2002 too. Thoroughly unpleasant bloke, and clearly lacking in clue.

Fucker! I'd be curious to hear about this in more detail...
