His name: Hugh MacLeod, of the clan MacLeod. Taking the phrase “There can be only one” to heart, Hugh started down the path of sketch cartoonery much to the dismay of his relatives - who were often the butt of his high-brow humor.
They would have preferred he pursue a more respected career path - something in the custodial arts, perhaps? No matter, Hugh pushed onward - never giving up on his dream of one day owning a yacht, sailing on a sea of fine wine, and playing “connect the dots” while having sex with cash and business theory.
Taking refuge in the comfort of a pencil, Hugh began to believe in his wicked little world - to the point where he actually Monkeyboned himself into it. If you happen to find Mr. MacLeod in a bar, do not approach lest you wish to incur his comical wrath on the following day.

[...] Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I’ve never met Hugh in real life, but I can only imagine this is what he looks like.

The BLaugh gang is having way too much fun as they keep lampooing the blogosphere. They’ve struck back at Hugh MacLeod of Gaping Void (he fired the first salvo last week and yes, Hugh, I missed the joke) with their most recent. I can’t help but think everyone is

[...] Digg Digging Diggs Digg is today’s comic for bLaugh. I won’t try to explain it - just look and laugh. My favorite quote… “Meanwhile, Netscape celebrated its 14th user registration.” And for those of you that love gapingvoid, bLaugh has a paraody. ( Bonus: Friendster. ) [...]
