No, I’m not Really Going to Download Squad

Thanks to Grant Robertson for instigating this prank, but no I’m not going to Download Squad – and you all should have known better. But thank you for biting – hook, line and sinker.

Here’s Grant’s video on the topic.

Thanks also to Mashable who rubber stamped this whole thing without knowing it. Welcome to accomplice hell. Shame on you! :)

What scares me about this whole thing is how well Grant and I (and all the Download Squad folks) lie so easily. :-)

I will say that when Grant and Loren Feldman began Twitter-battling this morning, I was completely sure this was a prank.

Then I began to doubt. Then Mashable fell for it, and I was seriously wondering if it was true, before Grant confessed.

Well done.

Thanks for playing along Aaron. You’re a damn good sport.

I was wondering how b5media would not be *ticked* that you were heading over there, but not enough to question it too much. I thought something was up when you were able to get a job, but you got me anyway. I think Grant calling into DoC was my confirmation.

Anyway, congrats on still being unemployed! Wait a second…

So sorry to make District of Corruption a fraud, Geoff. Hope you forgive me. :)

But, damn, was it fun.
