Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Did you come up with class and being classy?
Q: Why do you get to write a blog on classiness? What makes you so classy?
A: My hat makes me classy. Well, that, and my beard. My hat and my beard make me classy. Oh, and my suspenders. My hat, beard and suspenders make me classy. And cigar. And scotch.
Q. Where were you educated, what did you study, and when did you graduate?
A. I graduated from the University of Washington with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history. My primary area of focus was ancient classical history (Greeks and Romans). I also studied Swedish, Athenian Greek and Latin.
Q. Dœs this mean I have to believe what you say?
A. Never believe a man because of his pedigree. Instead, believe him for the strength of his argument.
Q: It’s impossible for anyone, including you, to always live by your classy guidelines. Dœs this make you a hypocrite?
A: Yep!
Q: I’ve been reading through your older posts and I disagree with many of your opinions. Do you really believe what you write on this blog?
A: Yes. That is, I really believe it when I write it. I do, however, change my opinions as I age. Some of my very old posts do not reflect the way I currently believe, but I won’t delete or edit them because I wish to keep a record of how I once believed.
Q: Wait — but that means that I can’t use your blog to gauge what you really believe.
A: Sure you can. Just assume that I believe what I write. If I have changed my mind over the years, engage with me and I will explain myself.
Q. What’s your greatest weakness?
A. Snark. My gut instinct is to respond with wit or sarcasm. This is great for script writing but not great for winning arguments and making friends. I’m trying to work on it.
Q. What is your greatest strength?
A. Your mom.
Q: I can tell by reading your blog that you are a liberal/conservative. I hate liberals/conservatives. Tell me what you are so I can hate you!
A: Eh.
Q. How can I be classy like you?
A. When arguing, be calm, cool, reasoned and restrained. Also, buy my albums.
