Phil Sandifer
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Phil Sandifer (sometimes known as Snowspinner) is the quintessential nerdy computer guy who nobody would actually want to meet in person.
He is a Ph.D. student in English, specializing in Webcomic Studies srsly, at the University of Florida (Hey say hi to Miltopia!) He is also a managing editor of ImageTexT, a peer-reviewed journal devoted to the study of comic strips and animated cartoons [1].
First Amendment fail
In May 2006, some fuckwads from Wikipedia Review found a standard-issue "edgy" short story about a murder on his LiveJournal. They tracked him down IRL and decided they had to report him to the police for the good of mankind, ignoring the giant FICTION labels all over his site. Afterwards he wrote about it in his Livejournal, and the IRL news coverage[2] [3] brought him a shit ton of new readers from boingboing.
In the aftermath, Everyking wrote this article because he was pissed at Phil for taking away all his Ashlee Simpson articles, and ended it with a totally profound quote from himself:
