Hey Pirillo! What’s an asshat?

Continuing the postings about AboutUs.org, comes this little gem I just received in an email from Tom (hopefully he won’t mind me posting it here).

I just got a reply back from Chris Pirillo of Lockergnome.com – which read

“Oh, jeeze… asshats.”

To an email where I pointed out his domain’s entries on aboutus.org! Maybe we’ll start seeing some more coverage (we can hope… I don’t know what “asshats” means, but I guess he’s less than impressed too)

So, that just begs the question of what an Asshat is?

UPDATE: I just found a definition for Asshat on Urban Dictionary :

One who has their head up their ass. Thus wearing their ass as a hat. Asshat

describing when one’s head is so far up one’s ass that one is wearing the ass as a hat. in other words, extreme stupidity.

Unfortunately Wikipedia does not, as yet, have an entry for “Asshat”.

    No problem at all – if we’re lucky we might start seeing some more coverage of aboutus.org, and some awareness spreading to those webmasters who don’t know their details are on there!

    It just so happens I have defined in great detail what an ‘asshat’ is on my blog.
