Ed Whelen is white trash.
Why do people think blogging under their real name is courageous?
In law, if you know your shit, you can prove it. Make your fucking arguments.
People who blog under their full names want to be lazy. LOOK AT MY (to my pea brain) BIG NAME. I NEED NOT CITE CASES OR ANALYZE ISSUES. BEING ME IS ENOUGH!
I think that's being a pussy. Make your arguments. Don't rely on who you (think) you are to make your case. (Wo)Man up.
Incidentally, I blogged anonymously until my blog was one of the first 8 Law.com blogs. (Later I quit because they cramped my style.) Then I had to out myself. It was no thing. If anything, I got "glory." Which doesn't really motivate me. Wow, look at me. I'm a unique snow flake. Whatever.
Now I blog only under my first name. It just spares me drama to not have people stalking me based on my blog posts. Yes, if you Google my name, my blog will be the first result. So people who know me can find my blog. But people who only know my blog need to do at least some diligence in order to find out my real name.... which is still pretty easy.
So I'm a half-coward? LMFAO!
I truly think real-named blogging is self-involved. My blogging has been cited twice in federal judicial opinions. They were "serious" posts on Section 1983 law, about which I'd say I know more than anyone what perhaps Sheldon Nahmod and Erwin Chemersinky.
Allow me to go orgasm all over myself!
Seriously, this shit cracks me up. I've had more success when I was blogging as a law student than most people who call others "cowards" for blogging anonymously will EVER have with their blogs.
They can all fuck off.
Get cited in some federal opinions. Then fucking tell me how brave and special you are because you blog under your real name!
The shit that impresses people about themselves truly astounds me!
