I try to avoid reading Scoble...

...but people keep sending me links.

Now, Le Scoble has turned Steve Jobs' comment re: Flash on the iPhone during the shareholders meeting:

"Proper" Flash "performs too slow to be useful," on the iPhone, Jobs warned. "There's this missing product in the middle. It just doesn't exist," he explained. Apple's boss insisted Apple maintains a good relationship with Adobe all the same.
into "Apple stabs Adobe in the back". (No, i'm not linking. If you can't find Scoble on the Internet, you're too stupid to read.)

Let's see. Flash has never been on the iPhone, Flash's performance on the Mac OS sucks balls, yet Jobs saying that they're going to continue with the existing lack of Flash for, DUH! performance reasons, is some kind of unexpected attack of shocking performance.

Look, on a personal level, Robert's okay, he's a nice guy, and really loves his wife. But I don't think that there's a difference between Robert and Le Scoble anymore. He's so deep into believing his own press that he cannot even come close to thinking before typing. Every time he puts anything up, it's like an Adam Sandler movie: We're stupider for it. I bet you could almost prove his posts are just form letters, some kind of big mail merge, with the source being a big database of stupid, with infinite storage capacity. (There's always more room for dumb.)

So since the world isn't going to stop reading his tripe, please...no more sending Scoble links to me. The stupid, she makes me weep. (Besides, it's not like every fucking thing he utters isn't going to be all over the fucking blogdorkosphere six seconds later anyway. I can't fucking avoid it even though I try.)

While Scoble is as inane as ever, Christopher Coulter had a great response. I hope he doesn't mind me quoting it. I'd link to it but that would make your not linking scobleizer moot.

So bloggers and people from Arkansas can understand…
