The Kool Aid Report helpfully provides etiquette tips for this Saturday's MOB gathering at Keegan's:
Should you be lucky enough encounter one of us uber-bloggers like the Nihilist in Golf Pants, Mitch Berg or Atomizer, politely introduce yourself, thank us for how our output has enriched your life, buy us a drink and be on your way. Also, please be careful to avoid eye contact at all times.
I can't stress how important this last bit of advice is for those brave (or foolhardy) enough to approach Atomizer. Do not--under any circumstances--look him directly in the eye. He considers it a sign of disrespect and he reacts almost as violently as when someone spills his drink.
Some poor upstart blogger made the mistake last year at a MOB event and barely escaped with his life after Atomizer took him outside and thrashed him in the alley next to Keegan's. I think his name was Tom Swift or something.
Anyway, approach Atomizer as you would a rabid pitbull. He may not look all that imposing, but when he's provoked he's a raging inferno of pain. There's a reason that Vox Day refues to come back to Minnesota and it's not because he's afraid of mosquitos. You have been warned.
