      It was shocking to me that someone who was so good… so fantastic at projecting a certain image in print was such a colossal failure at doing the same thing in real life. You shoulda stayed behind the web browser, my man.

        Amen. I was only able to stomach a couple of minutes of his YT channel. His blog was fantastic though. Granted, I was reading those articles at the peak of my teenage years, so they were prime for me. I’m not sure if they’d hold up as well with my adult self, so I think I’ll not go verify.

    Ah, Maddox. I’d ask if he’s still alive, but anybody with that level of spite are likely to live forever.

    I went to his book signing in Boston when he wrote The Alphabet of Manliness. Good times. I laughed so hard at his articles. Back in the day I couldn’t breathe. Definitely doesn’t hit the same being 37 now.
