Oh, internet...

Hey locals, do any of you know anything about an online comic book retailer based out of Arlington named Heavy Ink? Or a guy named Travis Corcoran, the company president?

Here's the reason I ask:

Laura Hudson puts it better than I could, but I just have to wonder at the mind who thought that posting this was a good idea. Did he just wake up and decide it was time to stop slacking and really push hard for his lifelong goal of being the internet's #1 douchebag? If THAT'S the case then well played, sir. Well played.

A friend of mine used to work for Heavy Ink. From what I understand, Travis has kind of always been that way. Travis's personal blog is banned due to inappropriate content from most places that filter web sites, and for very good reason.

I don't know the guy, but if I did, I would be tempted to walk up to him, say “I disagree with you politically”, and slowly reach into the large pocket of my bulky overcoat to offer him a stick of gum or a business card or something.
