&#62; Am I the only one who simply can't stand Jason Calacanis?<p>One of the rules of this site is that you ought to write things that you would feel comfortable saying to someone's face.  And often it's very practical because all sorts of people turn up to read stuff here.  Including Jason, it appears.<p>That said, I get a bad vibe too: why is everything he is associated with seemingly "Jason's this" or "Jason's that".  Generally, a startup is known first and foremost as the company, not as "Alexis Ohanian's Reddit" or "Sergey Brin's Google", but you <i>always</i> find that guy's name in the same phrase as Mahalo.  I can't quite place my finger on why this bugs me, but perhaps it's something to do with building something up as a free standing entity versus lending your famous name to something.
