Reasons and/or Occurrences That Should Keep You From Posting About Your Latest "Great" Idea

(in no particular order)

1. You regretfully told two co-workers about your blog in a misguided attempt to "save" an awkward conversation. Subsequently, you do not have the stomach to live in a constant state of anxiety about whether or not you will be mocked, fired, and/or served with a sexual-harassment suit after posting about any work related subject.
   Note on regret: So many subjects are now out the window... such a waste...such a sad sad waste.
2. It's apparently still what your wife refers to as "too soon" to make jokes about that.
3. Tweetage Wasteland would probably do it better.
4. Tweetage Wasteland has already done it, and in fact did it better.
5. It's not "Casual" enough.
6. Everybody already knows Steve Jobs has resigned.
   Note on self-worth: You don't even own a Mac.
7. Not controversial enough.
8. Too controversial.
9. Posting about that would technically be a hate crime.
10. After tweeting an amazingly creative and provocative industry-shaking tagline, which you spent hours crafting and perfectly wording, you received exactly no responses, mentions, or re-tweets.
11. You've come to realize the fact that "anything you can do, Ethan Marcotte can do better."
    Note on self-confidence: This will always be true.
12. This is only your second blog post and you should probably save the really "good" ideas for when your reader participation has expanded beyond "...pure charity."
