It's interesting. Being banned has such a powerful grip on the mind. It's almost like a python. It can squeeze out all other thought, suffocate all other emotion until everything is dead except for the rage. I'm not talking about anger. I'm talking about rage.


Zeke's Better Judgment: You're aware that this is completely idiotic, right?


Perhaps. The point is that being on the outside for a while is giving me a new perspective on things. I'm starting to think it's time to make some changes in the way I run this site. For instance, maybe I'm too personally invested in the staff and community. As we've now seen, that leads to conflicts of interest between --


Zeke's Better Judgment: Oh, I get it. You're publishing Sa'ar's "Conflicts of Interest" fiver today and decided to do a stupid intro.


Oh no, I'm quite serious. I think what I need to do is fire everyone currently involved with the site and replace them with random people off the street, or maybe robots.


Zeke's Better Judgment: I hate you so much.

If need be, I can totally become some random guy off the street.

Really. Just give the word.

Incidentally, this fiver was written in memory of Tim Choate, aka Zathras, who was killed in a motorcycle accident a year and a half ago. The delay is completely my fault, as is the fact that I forgot to tell Zeke to wait until I finished the Andreas Katsulas Memorial Fiver.
