What’s Your A-hole Footprint?

Written by Lotus on Saturday, 29 of September , 2007 at 7:34 pm

From Vanity Fair:

Regrettably, some Americans are simply not aware of how large an asshole footprint they leave on the planet. Here, Vanity Fair offers a questionnaire that will help such individuals determine the size and breadth of their footprint.

Some sample questions:

Do you leave vitriolic comments in the “Comments” sections of blogs and Web sites, even if you’re commenting on something innocuous, such as an old Linkin Park video?

When leaving such comments, do you use such rote Internet pejoratives as “asshat,” “douchebag,” and “‘tard”?

Does it take more than two words to describe what you do for a living?

Do you refer to having young children as “doing the parent thing”?

When your companion gets up to use the facilities at a restaurant, are you incapable of passing even the smallest blip of solitary time without theatrically scrolling or tapping on your BlackBerry, Tr?o, or iPhone?

Reducing your Asshole Footprint:

Stop gelling, mussing, and spiking your hair. You should part it, and that’s that.

Do not ever order a Cosmopolitan again.

Go two entire, consecutive days without using a wireless electronic communication device.

I am about as interested in reducing my A-hole footprint as I am in reducing my “carbon” footprint. Which is to say, not at all. Will this blog comment increase it, per the first question? Yes? Sweet. Haha.
