Peter, you would be a god in my eyes if you pull that off.
Of course, god of what I have no idea? Perhaps Rambo 3 based on your twitter avatar?

So you aren't a "traditional" douchebag? I think I'm going to cry myself to sleep...
The most authentic people are the most interesting, surely you are respected for that reason. I also believe self deprecation nurtures empathy.
Kudos Micah, you have created a new brand douchebag... that's better than New Coke!

I have never been a "traditional" anything...
I like the idea that I have create a "new" douchebag, which would mean by definition that I am the leader of a new band, a new world, a new universe of douchebags!
I like it!

Ahh, a marketer after my own heart! Nice work on this. You totally got me. Armano hooked me from a live twitter of your presentation, and since I love the word douchebag I was hooked on the story.
I agree with you. Your brand isn't hurt. In fact, it's stronger now.
Hey, have you seen the latest twitter killer at www.zobzee.com? It's from the creators of the wildly successful Blogrush competitor www.blogbucks.com.

Jim, its great to hear that Armano "got ya!" That dude is funny.
I think it has worked out, although I am waiting for the backlash.
I havent tried our zobzee yet, although I see you talking about them a lot. I will check them out now...

Just so you know, this bad ass mother fucker did it way back in 2005 when social media was just a baby and twitter was a sparkle in your eye. The dud has his own color and paint now. What color is douche bag?

A douchebag is always the same color: whatever the ladies love.

All good...luv the experiment. You're right, you cannot create a personal brand, only uncover it! This exercise does say something about you though to potential employers, partners etc...you are a fun, adventurous and slightly cynical but proud douchebag...scarily, your personal brand is not what you say about yourself, but what others say about you, so pay heed to these comments! BTW I learned you were a douchebag via Google Alerts...so you are right - Google does have all then answers!

Luke you found me through Google Alerts? 1) you are tracking the word douche bag? And 2) have you tried my friend's site http://filtrbox.com? Much better (invite code: douchebag) - of course. ;)
