    Let it be known that while it's true most people named "John" are indeed huge and horrible dicks, those of us who are named "Jon" are delightful and warm human beings.

    A "John" will kill your brand new puppy. A "Jon" will give you a hug if you are feeling sad and possibly send you chocolate as needed.

    A "John" will steal all your money and rape your nostrils, while a "Jon" will shoot funds your way via PayPal if you are in a pinch.

    True story. Google it.

    It's the extra "h" in their names that tips them over the edge, I think.

    Let me add that having "Jon" in your name has similar but smaller benefits. That is, in a hypothetical situation:

    Say that 30% of your first name exists out of "Jon", you will get 30% of the benefits aquired at a 100% Jon.

    Chris Glass is radical. He's just a state above me.

    Is that sweatshirt like 2 sizes too big on you?

    Amagawd...

    There =was= an announcement that was an improvement to an existing product.
    There =was= a demo of some kind.
    And there =was= at least one new product announced.

    Can't believe it.


    ...and really appreciated adding the cool-but-comfortable stuff. Makes me feel connected.

    Why drink from a paper coffee cup in your own office? Porcelain is more pleasurable.

    In my opinion--and I am a qualified chin assessor--man chin of such high quality should not be hidden under facial hair.

    QUIT? Or on sabbatical? Because seriously, macbreak weekly isn't the same without you Mr. Mann.

    Yeah, I guess I'd thought Leo had made that clear when I definitely left (amicably) back in like August or September (I forget exactly when, but it was a few days after the last ep I appeared on). Just had/have too much other stuff going on to give the show the attention it deserves (plus Andy's 10x funnier and smarter than me anyhow).

    I love those guys and wish them my affectionate aloha and the best in all things, but yeah. That's not a thing I do any more. Guess I should find a way to clarify that for folks.

    (Sorry for any miscommunication, Adam)
  • Adam Schoales 10 months ago
    No worries. You have been greatly missed (yes Andy is funny, but there is no substitute for Merlin... well maybe Sandwich). But yes, Leo made it seem as though you were on leave (much like you did when your daughter was born) with a chance for a triumphant return.

    Though kudos for you for buckling down and deciding where to devote your time (why this should come to a surprise to me I'm not sure, after all, you're Merlin Mann).

    Either way, you are greatly missed and your guest appearance brightened up my Podcast listening.

    Now get back to work on You Look Nice Today. My fishstick is getting dry.
