Actually, I sit on the sunshine fairy heart cloud quite often -

but only because the seats are comfy and the in-flight movies are good.

Actually, that might be the moonbeam fairy squirrel cloud. I do tend to get my clouds mixed up sometimes, and am often judged for it.

I also judge people who don’t read and who prefer pie to cake. Pie sucks.

However, I do still quote Office Space and (meep) Napoleon Dynamite. You may judge me!

So does anyone remember that episode of “Sliders” where Quinn teams with that female scientist who turns out to be his alternate-universe counterpart? Like, the same Quinn, but a girl?

That’s how I feel reading “Outside of the In-Crowd.” Ms. Enlow, you perfectly articulate my thoughts week in and week out as clearly as if they came from my own mind. I most definitely had that standoffish party encounter this past weekend, and I’m fine with the fact that I’m an asshole. The fact is that I would have never understood without reading this column and saying “oh yeah” in front of the computer over and over.

What I’m attempting to say is that this column speaks to me, week after week, and keeps me consistently entertained. I’ll keep coming back as long as you’re still your judgmental self.

I am completely fine with judging others. That guy in the Detroit hat deserved it. (you know of the one i speak)

I’m a judgers dream come true….I prefer Zack. I don’t watch The Hills but I do like to see the cast’s boobs on the internets. I love cilantro. Sweets are OK. I can and do read. I prefer pie to cake. I (and my wife) own all the seasons of Buffy and I watch them. McDonalds has salads? I do wear flip flops/sandals when it’s below 55 degrees and have even worn them in the snow. I drink too much, don’t smoke weed and I have done too much of both in my life. I don’t judge people’s shoes because my style is crap. I still quote Office Space. I like big dogs. I don’t care about Britney Spears enough to make fun of her. I like Conan but like Thundar the Barbarian better. I’m not super religious but I do like to make fun of super religious people especially the ones that dance with snakes. I am excitable and talk loud at parties especially when I first meet people (and I’m drinking), but I’m a good listener and I’m pretty sure people either love me or hate me immediately. I dislike anything popular sometimes for no other reason than because it’s popular. I don’t care enough about people as a whole to judge anyone. I consider myself the Asshole’s-Asshole.

I truly appreciate the “Judgmental Asshole” paradox you have created here.

By admitting that you are a judgmental asshole yourself, you’ve opened yourself up to criticism, yet no one can actually call you out on it without becoming a judgmental asshole themselves.

You might have stumbled across the most brilliant way to deflect Internet criticism I’ve ever seen.

I don’t mean to cut you down, but you know the only being capable of fair, unbiased judging is Judge Dredd.
