There is certainly a lot of crap out on the internet. And some idiotic people. Oh, but the idiots can be SO amusing. Especially the paranoid ones.
Let’s say you post on a forum and you have made mention of your profession both in your posts, and in your profile, and then later realize that might not have been the best idea you ever had. Do you:
a) Remove the information from your profile and hope that no one goes post digging to find mention of what you do?
b) Create a new profile?
c) Create a new profile and then tell everyone, “Hi, it’s me.”?
d) Create a new profile and then tell everyone, “Hi, it’s me, and going forward, can you not mention that I am a member of Profession X?”?
e) Create a new profile and then tell everyone, “Hi, it’s me, and going forward, can you not mention that I am a member of Profession X?” and then go on in future posts to mention yes, you are in Profession X and how it would be bad if your clients found out who you were?

I know I had a response to this, but I’m laughing too hard right now. Maybe later.

Oh, and what’s the meaning of “FTW” in your world? In mine, I already know.

FTW = For The Win in my world.
Watching this trainwreck of a poster has been exceptionally entertaining.

It’s some whackjob over on a stockmarket forum I follow. Absolutely insane and paranoid.
