...And Justin For All

Dear Readers, the story you most likely came here to read, ...And Justin For All, is gone. I took it down because one too many people identified the real "Justin", and this presented an ethical dilemma. If the real "Justin" ever stumbled upon this story or got wind of its existence, the damage would be severe. I'm not worried about my relationship with him or my personal safety; I'm worried about a fellow human being falling even deeper into a very dark place.

The Greater Fool is here to entertain you with stories about life. With the exception of a few minor details, ...And Justin For All is 100% truthful. I wrote it through his POV as a way of preserving that truth. Is it a fascinating, horrifying, humorous look into the mind of a man who feels victimized by the modern world? I think so. Is it an important story, one that captures not only his bitter voice but the voices of many like him? I know so. Is it akin to watching an oncoming train, one that gains speed and heads toward inevitable destruction? Absolutely. Is our entertainment worth the potential hazards if "Justin" were to one day read this story and face his own truth? Absolutely not. When I look at it that way I see this as nothing more than an elevated form of cyber-bullying, and that is not The Greater Fool's purpose.

I have watched my site traffic double with the release of this story. I have received many accolades for its mixture of horror and comedy. I will no doubt disappoint some of you with my decision to remove it. Therefore I have created a restricted page on this site that will host potentially hazardous materials, stories that, for whatever reason, are not suitable for public view but only to subscribers of The Greater Fool. That's where you can read ...And Justin For All, along with its forthcoming sequel. How do you get access? It's easy: just enter your email address in the little box on the right hand side, and I will send you a link or login instructions whenever a new story is published. Or something like that. I'm not entirely sure how these things work. And don't worry, I'm not going to mine your data or put your on the Warby Parker mailing list. 

In the meantime, might I interest you in some of last year's hottest toys? You can read about goth girls, pederast CCD teachers, drug addiction, the movie business, teenage boys who get perms, Russian Mail Order Brides, and feline hatred, all listed under the "Danny's Favorite Stories" section to your right.

Forever Yours,
The Greater Fool
