Holy shit, he actually said that. I thought you made that up. http://catb.org/jargon/html/miscellaneous.html

esr has a bad habit of claiming all of his own behaviors, likes, habits, and dislikes are generally shared by anyone who considers themselves a hacker. Thus, I assume from the link above that:

* He owns a cat

* He owns a "decrepit heap" of an unwashed car

* He has terrible handwriting
