      When your only claim to fame is jamming the word “shit” into other words…

      You need to milk all that ad money out of it you can.

        FWIW Cory Doctorow was famous before coining that word. He’s done a lot of great work. You should research before saying things.

              Yeah, I saw those on Wikipedia…

              Honestly the only impressive bit was an xkcd character is based on him.

              Like, you know it’s not amount the amount of awards, it’s the quality?

              Like those Prometheus awards, those are just for libertarians and they have like five winners a year.
