Pardon me, English is not my first language, and I'm confused whether this mckinstry stuff you talking about is serious or just parody?

He's serious, we're all laughing at him not with him.

(If you don't know the expression, it means we consider him funny, stupid, and we don't believe him. It has a definate insinuation that I don't think he's smart enough to even realise that we're making fun of him.)

I think if it turned out that it was a painstakingly crafted parody we'd all feel a) stupid, and b) disappointed. It's reassuring to think that there are people as insane as him who still manage to be a functioning member of society. :)

I've seen no evidence that he's functioning properly, other than his continuing ability to type (ish). But I would think that someone who claims to have invented what is essentially a bullshit detector, runs a risk of calling himself recursively, and the last we'll see of him will be a stack overflow as he finally infinite loops...

I think he suffers from some sort of delusional disorder.
