1) He did not trust the source, and questioned the authenticity.
2) He actually called him out on BS when he continued&lt;p&gt;The first false message from Joe is interesting, but once Rob replies, and Joe continues trying to push the lie, that&apos;s a little dick&apos;ish. The second Rob replied, with his first, and extremely professional response, I would have apologized/congratulated him, and explained what I was doing.&lt;p&gt;Continuing the charade invites deserved anger. I don&apos;t like being lied to either, especially when I know the person was lying and keeps pushing the lie.</text><parent_chain><item><author>mikeleeorg</author><text>A response from Rob Crossley:&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/Rob_Crossley_/status/294149670496768002&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https://twitter.com/Rob_Crossley_/status/294149670496768002&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/Rob_Crossley_/status/294149784678322176&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https://twitter.com/Rob_Crossley_/status/294149784678322176&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/Rob_Crossley_/status/294149862562353152&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https://twitter.com/Rob_Crossley_/status/294149862562353152&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/Rob_Crossley_/status/294149937736847363&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https://twitter.com/Rob_Crossley_/status/294149937736847363&lt;/a&gt;</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Don’t believe everything you read</title><url>http://x-surface.tumblr.com/post/41282771026/x-surface-dont-believe-everything-you-read</url></story>
