I love how basic & clumsy it all was back then.
Pick an obvious topic, present it in a bumbling way, immediately start saying mea culpa at the first bit of criticism, then spin the fucker out on & on & on...
Only the timidity of the forum members killed that thread... It's still not locked you know...
Go on - Pop out a post, I double dare you!

Love the bit at the end where Intrepid/Bill Stephenson/Matt calls me a psychopath, I'd forgotten about that...
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - The Internet!

Tip Top has you on fast-dial.
Constantly remind everyone on the fora of your artisan stature (at least in your own mind). Then, restless with this exalted position, proclaim yourself a designer, too. Artisan/designers of such distinction are not required to lower themselves to post pictures of their artisanship, so regular reminders are helpful in maintaining your renown.
When men enter the Oxxford store, they feel free to mention your name.
Undertake an effort to revive a modern-day interest in the button boot. Though generally met with derision and scorn by other fora gentlemen, cognoscenti and fashionistas, your admiration for the button boot compels you to relentlessly post, and post, and post your heart away in the belief that the rest of the world will eventually understand you and the unique beauty that is the button boot.
