Grinch Of The Year – Tim Pawlenty

KTLK’s Jason Lewis

He seems to have spent much of this week inveighing against people getting public assistance.

You’d think he could lay off at Christmas. This is the time of year when the poor get their nose rubbed in their poverty.

You shouldn’t listen to Jason Lewis, Rat. His arguments cannot be very good for the blood pressure of any thinking democrat … should any still exist. Other than you, that is, Rat.

Is Dennis back? I’ve missed him.

A tie between ethanol and the smoking ban

Between the two, the smoking ban would the bigger Grinch, in my opinion.

His arguments cannot be very good for the blood pressure of any thinking democrat

Sometimes he’s pretty funny, and sometimes he actually seems to mean what he says. But you’re right, they’re not.

I listen to talk radio sometimes to atone for my sins. Like that bald guy in The Da Vinci Code beating himeself with knotted cords.

Dennis/Maz made a dramatic announcement that he was done with mnspeak. I think it was either after saying National Guard troops back from Iraq were greedy or saying he wanted to beat up another commenter if he saw her on the street. Grinch of the year=MAZ

But he can’t stay away, just saying.

Bill McGuire.

i love maz, it wouldn’t be the same around here without him.

i love maz, it wouldn’t be the same around here without him.

He is like the rain cloud that makes you appreciate the sunshine even more!

If you believe that you have to suffer to show contrast to happiness. I personally believe we would all be better off without Debbie Downers in our lives.

paul douglas : for turning a routine 4″ snowfall into a city-wide meltdown and actually suggesting traffic gridlock was a ‘5+’ on his own 1-5 scale.

Dennis/Maz made a dramatic announcement that he was done with mnspeak

I thought he merely said “OK” when people tried to run him off because they didn’t agree with his politics. Didn’t seem too dramatic to me.

Bill McGuire.

Can we have the first annual “MNSpeak Haterade Awards” where we honor the biggest haters on MNSpeak? I guess we could start shootin’ up in here and it could be like the Source Awards as well…

“I thought he merely said “OK” when people tried to run him off “

Nope, I think you’re thinking of when he came back the first time after saying he was done. But hey, drama is in the eye of the beholder and I don’t think I can find the actual comment where Maz said he was done with mnspeak.

Perhaps it was just wishful thinking on your part.

Sue Jeffers–the woman who caused the biggest stink about the smoking ban. Now I hear she no longer owns that bar.

Hell to the No to the Haterade Awards – the peeps who win will just gloat in their haterade glory and then become more insufferable. Ugh!

Let him or her who is without sin cast the first stone.

Molnau – she is ugly, stupid, uneducated, and smells bad…..and those are her good qualities…..

Another dumb hick in politics

Hell to the No to the Haterade Awards – the peeps who win will just gloat in their haterade glory and then become more insufferable. Ugh!

Well, maybe you need to hate harder.

No, Rat. He left in a huff because, despite repeated warnings that I would delete comments from him that are just trollish partisan attacks in non-political threads, when I actually did so Maz left in a huff. I have also deleted similar posts by Raindog. It has nothing to do with his politics. It has everything to do with the fact that he insists on turning every single thread into a partisan political pissing contest.

And I will say to Maz, if he’s back, that he’s welcome to participate to any extent that he wants, but I still will have no patience for the behavior I just described.

Max is like the Santa of MNSpeak, with naughty and nice lists. There’s a lump of internet coal coming your way!

I do check my lists twice.

Do you really need to? I mean, aren’t we all on the naughty list anyway?

I JUST LIKE CHECKING LISTS!

(flees room crying)

Well, maybe you need to hate harder.

Nicely done.

I figure I’m insufferable as it is, hating would only make me unbearable and no need for that in the world.

There’s got to be levels of the naughty list, I think.

Nice, Ang, you made Max cry. I sense a lump of coal in your inbox…

That’s cool. I can make that into diamonds, if you know what I’m saying, and I think you do.

(I don’t even know what I’m saying)

People should not announce that there “done” with MNSpeak. They should just go back to being lurkers, like some sort of ghost stuck forever in MNSpeak purgatory.

…. Or at least the 3rd terrace of purgatory. Isn’t that the place where angry souls go?

Isn’t that the place where angry souls go?

No, that’s the Anti-Strib.

bob youare completely correct. I used to peruse it occasionally because I was bored at work but it seriously caused me to be unhappy. The bad karma of anti-strib must be taking years of off those bozos lives.

I love that you used the term “bozo”. That and dumbo are among my favorite insults.

An old Army buddy of Mrs. L and I had a favorite term: “knucklehead,” spoken with her rich Jamacian accent. I have never heard anyone say that term quite the same way before or after.

Sigh. Everytime I hear that word, I think of her and her husband, a really great guy and close friends to both of us. We lost touch with them both after we left the service. I wonder where they are now?

Safe and happy, I hope — my same hope to all of you.

I cannot believe no one has offered Katherine Kersten. She more defines grouch than grinch, though.
