Mike Lee is an Asshole

From the man himself:

So there you have it: my arrogance in a nutshell is 25% refusing to pretend I haven’t done good work, 25% not wanting to speak for other people, 25% me joking around, and 25% other people projecting their own arrogance onto me. Now, if you don’t mind, I have to get back to helping friends and donating my time to writing software for charity. I’m sorry if that sounds arrogant.

Mike Lee is an asshole. He’s also one of the nicest guys in the industry. Which version would you rather spend your emotional energy on?
