If it wasn't plain as day that Zed was serious about this, (a) I wouldn't be voted as high as it was, and (b) I wouldn't have commented on it.

I just wish he hadn't built a caricature.

Yeah, I'm totally serious about it with that picture of Samuel L. Jackson right at the top. Totally dead serious. Going to start the conference tomorrow.
Apart from the picture of Sam Jackson and some but not all of the words "motherfucker" on this page, which part of this post do you not believe?

Note: we're just nerding out. I'm reacting to your attempt to imply that that this is entirely or even mostly a joke. I don't really care. And, like I said, to the extent that it's not a joke, I agree with it.

You dismiss the power of Samuel L. too quickly. If anything, he made it more serious.
The truest truths are said in jest.
And I'll buy a ticket today.
MotherFuckerCon 2011. It's a bunch of Agile coaches all standing around in circles passing rubber ducks to each other waiting for their turn to talk about what they're going to do...someday.
