Oh, this is so rich… Check this punk ass out as he bad mouths some chick working at a movie theater because she won’t let him take his Justin.tv camera inside a movie auditorium with it on.
That’s frigging rich. You do this for your work? To make a living you broadcast on Justin.tv?
Stop the shit.
Good on her for not giving a shit about his stupid explanation too.
I’m all for freedom to photograph and video wherever and whenever, but she was anything but a bitch in telling this moron to STFU and turn off the camera. It’s a movie theater. He tried to bully her and she wasn’t buying it. Good on her.
Lewis makes an apology on his blog:
I’ve always done my best to make others feel valued and appreciated in my presence, and in this case, I failed. I took offense to a portion of my life which I’m quite passionate about, and know that my passion runs deep for anything I dedicate my life to. I cannot be stubborn and feel justified in my actions because of my passion or the wrongdoings and disappointments I’ve faced in life and with people. Thus, I concede that I’m wrong and admit to my error. I will personally apologize to Bryanna in person this week and make the video available within this post.
*cough* marketing speak wishy washy weasel words alert *cough*
And, of course, he has the requisite breakdown complete with foot stamping, whining, bitching and complaining that nobody cared about him until he acted like a complete and utter asshole.
Where were you while I was interviewing everyone from Craig Newmark to Kevin Rose? Where were you when I was breaking major news on my blog which got overlooked by the majors? Where were you when I was bridging relationships with the world’s leading CEOs? Where were you during the many moments of my lifecast where I profusely thanked someone for their service? Where were you when I gave a tip to a server who didn’t deserve it? Where were you during my crappy relationships where I simply wanted love, respect and commitment? Where were you when I created my own PR campaigns and secured coverage for my projects in the Detroit News, Nashville Business Journal and other media oulets? Where were you when I gave money to the homeless? Where were you when I talked to Cisco about sponsorship of my podcast? Where were you when my father died? Where were you when I called for our nation to put an end to social constructs? Where were you when I got the exclusive interviews prior to the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and other mainstream outlets? Where were you when someone’s child said they loved me?
Nah, no one bothered to take interest in anything I mentioned above. No one took the time to see the life of a good and decent person who has only asked for the basics in return from others. Instead, you chose to gossip about one of the most meaningless and baseless portions of my life. What about everything else? Is all that matters in the world is when we’re pissed off, or when we’re frustrated with life and people? Does my life’s work and who I am as an individual not matter? How is it that I can achieve so much in life without mention, yet a minute-long video can have the world in chatter?
What is really important in our society today?
Oh really. Shut up. You chose to broadcast your life on Justin.tv so if you act like an asshole and everyone notices, it’s on you, my friend.
Tech Crunch has more stories including one about someone who I actually like getting thrown out of a book reading for putting it on Justin.tv.
