Who is this crazy Flossip chick anyway?

I get emails every day from people wondering who I am. Sometimes they think I am other people in the community, a random hockey mom, a guy that actually lives in Charleston… wrong, wrong, and wrong.
The truth, as outlined in my about page, is that nothing can be kept a secret forever. I write every post here with the knowledge that I could be outed in the FloMo tomorrow. (Ok, I don’t think the FloMo cares who I am… but you know what I mean!)

Today I got an email that was pretty threatening. The author seemed to think that the Flossip’s secret identity was worth me paying them to keep a secret. They had apparently done some tracking, talked to some people, tracked my activities… all to argue that I am who they say I am. Unfortunately, they got the “who I am” part right. They managed to put it all together (but what a weird waste of time). They honestly thought I would pay them to keep my identity a secret. Their big plan was that they would take out an ad in the Morning News, all to ruin my fun little secret.

They obviously do not know how cheap I am. I will sell out faster than you can blink before I will pay money to a blackmailer. Luckily, I counseled with some VIP’s here in Flo-town for advice. (One is actually an accused Flossip! Ha!) Their consensus? Just tell you who I am. Just put it out there and stop this rotten blackmailer before he goes any further.

(Drum Roll Please…)

So, (deep breath), without further adieu, please read more to see exactly who the Flossip is…

Too funny!!! Hey I know alot of attorneys in town if you need one!! Most of them read Flossip!! ;) Why does it matter who you are anyway? What matters is the content of the website and that’s what keeps people coming back :)

Keep up the good work Mr. Wilson!!!

Oh and one more thing…does this stalker not have anything better to do with their time but to monitor your activities?!??! Freaky HAHAHA
