I bumped into radio presenter Adrian Kennedy the other night, and having slagged off his show in my column, I was a bit apprehensive when he tapped me on the shoulder in the Olympia bar.
But instead of giving out, he smiled, held out his hand, and offered to buy me a drink.
Why? Because Adrian is smart, and knows Dublin is a small place, too small to make lifelong enemies. He also recognised we are all just doing our jobs and people who react badly to criticism are often showing themselves up to be a bit of a tit.
This lesson seems to have eluded Ray Shah. The former Big Brother star -- it was over seven years ago but, yes, that's how he's still introduced -- jumped into his Twitter account this week, the minute news broke of the Sunday Tribune's troubles.
