Guess I'll Go Eat Worms

It would appear that I am part of what's wrong with the Hugo Awards and it would be much better if I just died already.

Not much else I can say about things like this. I contemplated whether I should give him more publicity, but I figure if I promote people who mostly agree with me like Scalzi yesterday, it's only fair to give some time to someone who deeply disagrees with me and is willing to make an argument for it. Heck, I don't even disagree with everything he said.

I have a hard time seeing how people can interpret your actions like that (and said so in the comments of the post). I think you are generally much more patient in your comments than I would ever be.

On the other hand, I do agree it probably isn't helpful that so many people dismiss discussion of any possible problems with the Hugos as "my favorites don't win, boo-hoo". There is a lot of that, but other people who are trying to discuss things more deeply probably get -- or feel they are getting -- the same treatment as well.
