Um, Yeah

Apparently, She-Who-Will-Not-Be-Named is talking about me again. Whatever. Lets handle this, shall we?
Almost two years ago, a friend gave me some very bad information about SWWNBN and I posted it in the comments section of another blog without verifying it was true. That was very foolish on my part. I also made a snarky (now deleted) comment about SWWNBN on my blog without investigating the situation I was commenting on. Yes, I know, it’s shocking — I said something snarky. It was stupid and in poor taste to say the least, and I am sorry. It was also two years ago, and I feel badly about it and I have done my best to remove it, even deleting it from the server.
After SWWNBN complained and almost immediately threatened to sue me over the first comment, I retracted and apologized for the incorrect information I had posted. I also had it deleted. I have since deleted all posts related to SWWNBN from my blog and studiously avoided mentioning her at all in hopes of forgetting that she existed.
Unfortunately, the story descends into the Twilight Zone. SWWNBN has, apparently, done research on me, found out not only where I worked but exactly what I did there, and phoned and mailed in complaints to my real-life job (former job, actually, for totally unrelated reasons), contacted at least one big blogger, John Hawkins, to complain about me and has talked about me in comment sections on other blogs that mention or link to me. Anyway, I would rather just ignore SWWNBN, but it’s hard to ignore someone who keeps contacting people she hardly knows to tell them about you. At least if she keeps it up, I will have a post to point people to explain what’s going on.
PS: Anyway, thanks for the traffic, everyone.

Imitation may be the sincerest form of flattery, but being targeted by a nutjob such as SWWNBN is the surest sign you’re doing well.
