I bet you think this post is about you.
Don’t you? (Hopefully everyone gets the reference!) Anyway, I know there are people reading this who think that I write posts targeted directly at them. No, I’m not being paranoid. I know that there are people who are so obsessed with what I write here that they check on it, just sure that I’m going to make a veiled reference about them or directly to them. No, I’m not being arrogant, either. I know that “they” are out there. The sad thing is, when they’re the most sure that I’m writing about them, I’m not. Of course, trying to convince these people of that is like trying to convince a conspiracy theorist that there’s no conspiracy. (“Ha, see, that’s what they want you to think!”)
Jeez, now I’m starting to sound paranoid! Well, anyway, I’m done making fun of the loonies. They don’t take too well to it. Besides, this little note will keep them going for months…

Okay, now, take a little Advice from your Uncle Jim and just let it go. You’re not always the center of the universe. Honest.
