Huge fan of Loren’s work. Pure genius.
Congrats on the Board position.
I could not find what the group was about, I did find a picture of a guy with a big muppet looking creature?
congrats… love the creativity behind it..
you’re not missing anything.
Congrats, you have a lot of tough decisions ahead of you.
just wondering, seems arrington is always the leader whenever org he gets into/…
Please convince them to bury the hatchet and do something useful, like turn this spectacle into a charitable event for a good cause.
Please convince them to bury the hatchet and turn this spectacle into a charity event to raise money for a good cause. Something useful.
Congratulations, these are nice decisions…
Absolutely hysterical. Poor Shel. Have no idea what started the feud between those two, but man Loren is milking it.
Mazel Tov, you schlepper!
Loren Feldman is a comic genius, his puppet videos are great. Though I think he does sometimes push things a little too far.
Women are apparently not invited. Shocker!
Eh, never mind…looks like a few were. Carry on!
wtf? this is sure to amount to nothing.
Nice job. Congrats!
diddo…
I’m totally missing the joke.
Could you elaborate what this is all about?
Sorry, but which joke are you referring to? I think I misunderstand the whole post.
Hey bud, what’s a schlepper? ^^
I don’t understand what its all about either, I hope Shoe is going to elaborate.
Is this good or bad news?
Schlepper
noun.
2. A clumsy or stupid person.
shel israel? hahaha you americans loves to be under the wings of jewish society. you’re not cool.
It looks like Loren has decided to end the whole thing. The original post is deleted and he’s giving Shel his domain name. It would have been funny to see all those guys debating with a puppet. I wonder what caused the change of heart? Boredom, time, money, lawyers? A new puppet?
I don’t get it ! what are we supposed to …

Huge fan of loren, nice work.
thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
Never heard of this guy before.
So I guess it’s over? Heh.
Congrats Jeremy
OK, so…I guess you could tell us what this is about now, Shoe?
Here is some background:

Shel Israel? Isn’t he that guy who spends more time writing Wikipedia-level policies for his blog than doing anything useful? The guy who won’t follow anyone on Twitter who doesn’t have a picture? The guy who makes commenters on his blog post with their full names?
Hey Shel, the choice to remain anonymous is what makes the internet great. When you take away that choice you do little to stop trolls or “ensure legitimacy” and everything to stifle discussion.
I don’t really mean what’s that but it seems that it worth a lot for you that you blog about it. Anyway congratulation.
I agree with you Mark.
Shel Israel is a well known author and consultant who makes a living advising others on how to avoid the very trap that he fell into himself. In the process Israel has done considerable damage to his personal brand.

Congrats. Hope you enjoy your time on the board. Do tell us what your first major decision is…
I get a 504 error.
There seems to be a joke happening here, old chap….
Congratulations, Shoe! Now you will have more work than usual.
Mazeltov?
