The scariest thing is that if you google "Joseph Hanserton" you'll find NOTHING!!! They erased all evidences. I'm glad I stored that folder in a safe place. One day the world will know.

but the "trying to one up me" bit in catanga's post meant that?
btw, it was not a "j'accuse" (not even a funny/disturbing one) about your habits :p (as you probably already knew).
I think swa(y) or someone else had that pic as avatar.

oh oh oh oh i realize nicfit

"one up" is an american idiom

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-upmanship

One-upmanship is the systematic and conscious practice of making one's associates feel inferior and thereby gaining the status of being "one-up" on them.
The term originated as the title of a book by Stephen Potter, a follow-up to the Gamesmanship and Lifemanship titles in his series of tongue-in-cheek self-help books, and film and television derivatives, that teach various "ploys" to achieve this.
Viewed seriously, it is a phenomenon of group dynamics that can have significant effects in the management field: for instance, manifesting in office politics.
The term has been extended to a generic, often punning, extension upmanship used for any assertion of superiority: for instance, Photon upmanship, Native Upmanship, and so on.

[edit] Fictional characters with one-upmanship

Within comic strips, Topper from Dilbert and Clem from Rose is Rose are one-uppers.
In the 1980s Master Thespian (Jon Lovitz) battled wits with the great Baudelaire on Saturday Night Live in a running battle of cheesily theatrical one-upmanship.
Illusionists Robert Angier and Alfred Borden are in a competive one-upmanship in the film The Prestige.
