Word: Worst Person in the World
October 15, 2007 at 5:00 am by Andisheh Nouraee in NewsGawker.com yesterday declared Buckhead resident John Fitzgerald Page the “Worst Person in the World†and “a colossal, mindbogglingly douchey douchebag.â€
The 36-year-old actor/model/Ivy League grad/financial consultant earned the monikers after Gawker saw an angry, self-aggrandizing missive he sent to a woman who rejected him after a brief online flirtation on Match.com. Gawker also ridiculed Page’s personal website, JohnFitzgeraldPage.com.
“I think you forgot how this works. You hit on me, and therefore have to impress ME and pass MY criteria and standards – not vice versa . . . don’t blow it with the next 8.9 on Hot or Not, Ivy League grad, Mensa member, can bench/squat/leg press over 1200 lbs., has had lunch with the secretary of defense, has an MBA from the top school in the country, lives in a Buckhead high rise, drives a Beemer convertible, has been in 14 major motion pictures, was in Jezebel’s Best dressed, etc.â€
— Page’s response to a woman who rejected him on Match.com, as reproduced at Gawker.com on Oct. 11
Stalin. Hitler. Bin Laden. John Fitzgerald Page. Somehow, I am ranked at #1. My crime – murder? treason? pedophilia? rape? No, worse. A woman winked at me on the internet. I sent her an introdutory email. She tried to rescind her initial wink by saying we weren’t a “personality” match . She ascertained that from my first email without ever speaking to me. Here is my crime. Instead of just letting her float away, I let her know that I feel that if you approach me, you should meet my standards and listed facts about myself.
— Page declined CL’s request for an interview, but after we spoke he posted a long response to the hubbub on his personal website, JohnFitzgeraldPage.com.
