BB, yes, of course that was Jared. I like it when you get him all yippy snippy. We love YOU, though, BB. I blame The Preppy Handbook for this entire mess.

I'd be willing to bet that Jared is the commenter who wrote that he's had enough of my "unsubstantiated and irrelevent nonsense." The writing style is pure Jared Stern. Wouldn't it be great if the person who uncovered Joe Klein as the anonymous Primary Colors novelist revealed that these pro-Jared post were written by Stern himself? I have no interest in fame whatsoever. You've got the wrong girl. What's fascinating about Jared's gawker stint is that now he is threatening to out the anonymous posters who are commenting on gawker right now. I wonder if he is now extorting them for $220,000 to keep their identities secret.

As the above notes, still developing. Stern pissed off some people and now it's coming back to nip him. What I don't know is why all these web sites giving him so much ink time? He's been around for a long time, why all the press now? The old NY Press must be having a great day. Except for stupid drunken bird. Another guy who's like stern, if you've ever seen Tony millionaire, in person.

No, BB, you've already posted enough unsubstantiated and irrelevant nonsense. Can't you think of something better to do? It's a nice day today, why not talk a walk and enjoy life. What did Stern do for you to hold a grudge for 20 years? I've never read a word of his, or knew who he was until last week, but your comment comes across as petty sour grapes because he has some degree of fame and you don't.

If you really want me to post more, I will. But I worry that what I have to say is too long for anyone to read.

It is just a little bit...odd. Interesting, but/and odd. I'm sure the Times will get Jennifer 8. Lee to do a story on it or something. I can see it now: "People blog their mandates...." Oh, sorry. Got distracted for a moment.

Good for YOU, BB! Please tell us more. What comes around, goes around.

An open note to the man who calls himself Jared Paul Stern: The people who went to college with you at Bennington are talking Jared. We're talking about the tawdry mess you're in and how we're not surprised you created it. We knew you back when * you only had two names: Jared Stern; * you were in the closet with Dan, your secret college "boyfriend;" * you read the Preppy Handbook to figure out what to wear to class; * you fantasized about being Brett Easton Ellis (Bennington '85) and decided to adopt three names in his honor; * you read Bright Lights, Big City and resolved to be a modelizer who's obsessed with the Post; * you freaked out when Pam, the Jodie Foster look alike lesbian wouldn't date you. Yes, Jared Stern we remember the preppy little poser your pretended to be. And we remember how the autumn of '92 you became Euro-GQ boy with the slickster clothes. Cinnamon remembers. Justin Therous remembers. Franklin remembers. Hoagland remembers. Maura remembers. We all remember Jared. And some of us have begun to talk to to the press, too.

Toby Young's a mate of Stern's, as Young mentions in the post before the one Stern links to. All delightfully sordid. Nice to see some swearing in Gothamist too - looks good on you.
