Jim, I realized that ‘ZORAN’ (who i’ll keep apostrophe-izing until the cows come home, literally) MUST be the Blaine himself…the Blaineiest. That’s why he’s not responding right now! Because the moron is strapped to a ton of Calder-esque metal dangling him like a gol darned pinata. Ass pirate.

[...] 2nd-Remember Jim? My college roommate? Well, apparently, his David Blaine bit has sparked some controversy. Mainly me and him trying to take down this mysterious “ZORAN” fellow, who is clearly David Blaine himself. It’s reminiscent of Leah’s Stroger/Peraica Drama. Who knew? [...]

A) He put your name in quotes as part of the joke that you were really Blaine posting under a pseudonym, not as any slight against your name.
2) I doubt the “kink in the catheter” remark was meant seriously, and at any event it wasn’t really aimed at you (see A).
C) Socially inept we may be, but at least we can recognize and take a joke. Sheesh…
D) I’m not even sure what your “opinion” was supposed to be, but I’m pretty sure no one tried to denigrate it.
E) I’m way too excited that my little page here has started a mini virtual-fued!

Why exactly did you put my name in quotes. So I don’t have a common North American name. Is it that you’re so incapable mentally as to have names outside of Tom, Dick, and Jane be beyond you, or was it just a pale attempt at a joke that a selet few in your socially inept clique will understand…I’m just trying to understand.
You are all amazed at the reactions you see in people, yet clearly my post has had a reaction with you. Granted they may not have been with the same ideology and motivation behind it, but a reaction it was none-the-less. Don’t be so closed to the fact that the world is full of differing opinions, and not one stands to take an advantage over any other.
Think about it…lest you try to post another clever remark regarding actions that you and I both know you would never really take.

Jimby, I just noticed that he responded! weird… I think that that IS David Blaine. (Do you know how hard it is to type DAVID when your name has DAVIS in it? Really hard. Really. Hard.) Hey “ZORAN”, why don’t you try locking yourself in that bubble again! Please! I’ll be there to put a kink in the catheter this time!

I don’t think I fall under David’s cult-like following, I just did not understand the spiteful joy the article took. It was just a TV special, no worse, and in many ways better than the plethora of other crap that is on the boob-tube every day. That’s all.

Wow. This little comment makes me so happy! Seriously, I’m not even being sarcastic. I don’t know if it’s the screaming irony, the Quayle-esque spelling, the apparent uselessness of my self-effacing final sentence, the fact that my little tongue-in-cheek post was able to prompt such raging vitriol, or the fact that David Blaine has such a freaky cult-like following. At any rate, I can’t help but read this and smile. I hope the rest of you enjoyed it as much as I did!

Wow, so much bitterness and anger over two hours of your wasted life. I mean, I completely understand, how could you not be angry at this wasted time. Clearly your life is so important and productive that not only after watching this ‘waste of time’ you saw it upon yourself to post highly informative and enlightened comments on the internet about it.
The show may be a little cliched in its presentation, but regardless, I love your couch-potatoe psycho analysis. You must be a very talented person with a plethora of great ides of improving our everyday life. Clearly we can all look forward to having an easier and more beautiful life because of you.
I’m glad you took the time to post this comment. Now, sit back down, relax, grab your tissue box, and go back to what you do with the other 99% of your internet time.

Hey Bud! Nice usage of snarky from Chuck’s book. I can’t believe you watched the special. TIVO would have helped you could have fast forwarded the countdown clock and see him gasp for air. If he made it you would have seen in on ESPN’s Top 10 plays of the week. Anyway thank you for watching it cuz it only took a few minutes to read your synopsis.
