Let me get this straight.

A guy jokes with a buddy on twitter.

Fanboys go ape shit.

He explains it was in jest.

Fanboys continue to go ape shit.

He get's fired because fanboys went ape shit.

Fanboys will continue to go ape shit.



His life and the world would be a lot better if everyone would just ignore stupid fanboys and their stupid fanboy rants.

When you are in a position he is in, as a creative director, and what you say gets out and causes this much negative publicity for a company that was considering things you were saying and opposing it, such causes loss of spin and can get you fired.

What is stupid is this response to the no longer with Microsoft:

Someone writes he was being fired for being CRITICAL of the strategy?  Sheesh.  Now THAT is stupid.
