Sound like in the previously mentioned schlong measuring war, the winner has been genetically predetermined, so there’s really no point in trying to compete…

Well, we couldn’t have given Loco a friendly reception just because we’re a group of adults interested in discussing issues related to living in Japan and are capable of amicably debating points we disagree about.

I mean, that much is obvious. So what other explanation could there be?

Ah, so he does. I should have clicked a bit more before jumping to my own conclusions.

And he also says in the article above that folks on Tepido like Loco because Loco is black…

Which would mean Debito IS reading Tepido. So he’s a liar.

Actually, I think this is how the logic works:

Hikosaemon gave a positive review of Loco’s book on Amazon.

Hikosaemon did a youtube interview of Loco.

Therefore Hikosaemon likes Loco.

Hikosaemon follow tepido.org on Twitter, therefore Hikosaemon is “a Tepido”[sic].

ergo: “Tepidos” ♥ Loco.

Not sure where the “cos he’s black” bit comes from. Extrapolation, I guess…

If I could take a stab at this one for bonus points…

Both?

(What is behind curtain three? US citizenship?)

“– Thanks. Sorry, I will not visit the Stalker Site under any circumstances. Thanks for letting me know.”

Yet he will visit the Tepido twitter feed to find out who has subscribed since the subscribers have got to be the folks who run this site…

And he also says in the article above that folks on Tepido like Loco because Loco is black…

Which would mean Debito IS reading Tepido. So he’s a liar.

OR – Debito was telling the truth when he says he never reads Tepido, and is instead relying entirely on what his “friends” tell him folks are saying on Tepido, without verifying if what he is being told is true or not. Which would mean he’s a gullible idiot.

So, David Aldwinckle, for everything behind curtain number three here is your question: are you a liar or a gullible idiot?

Way I see it, the only way he could get in trouble is if he’s using the internet on work time, and that’ll likely get him a talking-to as opposed to outright firing. George’s account might be a bit naive, but yours is just weird paranoia.

I hope you are right, but it is naive to think that things work that way.
