Eh, it's not my cup of tea. I don't care for Portnoy's frathouse antics.

3:27

But I also have colleagues that found their way to barstool, like Justin Havens, who did a great job at ESPN nad certainly isn't a jerkass.

And really, everybody in media has at one point or another worked for a large parent organization that has done some s hitty things.

3:28

As long as t hey're not bullying people at the park, I don't care if people want to have their low-brow hangouts. It's just not for me.

I can't get excited about mean words. Whatever happened to words will never hurt me?

I get called fat or ugly or dumb a couple of dozen times a day in tweets, DMs, or emails. Who give a rat's ass? I certainly don't.

I suspect Nate and I would get along very well hanging out. But I've only exchanged a number of emails from him. And to go YEAH, I'M TOTES TIGHT WITH NATE LOOK AT ME I KNOW A FAMOUS guy would be dishonest.

You can ascribe plenty of negative things to me. Like most people, I'm a mix of bad and good. But I'm not dishonest.

Actually, Cool Ranch fingers would be closer

But I very rarely eat junk food.

My diet is actually surprisingly decent, which is kind of sad that I'm eating fairly well to maintain THIS physique

CamdenWarehouse

Dan Szymborski

3:32

Yup

OK, Taco Man is on my street.

(I assume his name is David)

True story, when Door Dash started up here, there was a guy named Osama B.

the second time I got him, he was going by Sami B

3:34

I would HAVE THOUGHT HE MIGHT HAVE NOTICED THAT BEFORE 2017

I am annoyed that nobody will explain this emoji thing. Now that everyone has laughed feel free to explain.
