I’ve Never Asked Yous For Anything

But I’m asking. John Aravosis WILL be targeted for battle rap destruction, as he is a gigantic emu choad. If you have any rhymes you’d like to include for the piece, send it in. 3bulls at gmail.

Here’s a little taste of why.

This rap is gonna be so beat down, I expect a threat of a lawsuit, but it’s not slander, J, it’s candor. Just go away.

  • John Aravosis: fighting the Rich’s war on the Poor since 1997.

    Someone’s been reading too much into his demographic survey, methinks.

  • I couldn’t get there via the link above, but it is still there. I love the implication that single folks making $75k are hurting because food is so expensive. Jesus, maybe if you’d lay off the gold-encrusted emu-egg and caviar omelets. Plus, his “Some guy living in a mansion in Topeka making $74,999 a year will get his little gift from the US Treasury and you, living in NYC making $75,001 out of a 300 sq ft studio apartment will get nothing” is a LIE: it STARTS to phase out at that level, so you’d get a little less than this mythical Topekan, NOT nothing.

  • From here: “Individuals with incomes up to $87,000 and couples up to $174,000 would get partial rebates. The caps are higher for those with children.”

  • Weep the tears of the emu:

    I’m sorry to say it, but after having written this blog for four years, and having run online communities for a good decade now, I’ve gotten to know how people act online. Then tend to be much ruder, and much more impulsive, than they would ever be in person. And the really odd thing is how truly hateful they can be to people they know to be good people. So, no, I can’t accept that people misread my post. They didn’t read my post. The explanation I just gave Bruce is almost verbatim from my post itself. Read it for yourself, it’s still there. The problem is that too many people feel the need, or can’t control the urge, to be hateful when conversing online. Not angry – hateful. And it’s a big problem. If I hadn’t been witnessing this kind of reaction for ten years now, I might agree with. But the sad truth is that people choose to see what they want to see, they don’t read what anyone really writes, they make a snap decision by the first paragraph, and if you don’t agree with them, you’re the devil, even if they’ve known you for years. I’ve been called a racist because I think Cynthia McKinney is a nut, and she is, and because I criticized Obama during the McClurkin thing. I’ve been called an Indian-hater, and someone spammed the site for weeks, because I miss my school’s symbol and said I was divided about it being phased out. I’ve been called a woman hater because I used a popular 20-year-old (at least) gay expression to mock a Republican, an expression that suddenly the most vocal gay people in the comments claim they’ve never heard of (which is utter bull), and I’m also a woman-hater because a lot of Hillary’s campaign moves have bothered me of late. I hate, and apparently “fear,” trans people because we disagree about ENDA. Oh yeah, and that also makes me an awful gay person who’s never done anything for the community. I’m a Jew-lover and an Arab-hater because I have actual nuanced opinions about the Middle East. And on and on and on. There’s a certain level of hate that unfortunately comes when you let everyone have anonymous access to the town square, and it happens on all the blogs, on all bulletin boards online, in all chat rooms, but for some reason I thought our own readers would be different. I was apparently wrong. Just wait and see the comments that come next. They’ll speak for themselves.

  • did he change the post title again? He does that sometimes when he’s getting the negative attention he deserves. Also, thanks for your tears, John, I forgot your terrible insensitivity to Native Americans. I remembered your sexism, transbashing, etc.

  • Wait, wasn’t this a movie?

    “Cry, the Beloved Grumpy”

  • I think this link should work better.

    rhymes forthcoming.

  • I thought he moved his crapass, shitgobbling, emusquaking blog to a private server or something over a year ago? Why are dumbasses supporting a guy with donations whose blog is hosted for free?

    Screw it, send me some money for the Emu Obliteration Fund at Blogspotoloid.

  • More importantly, is JA getting a cheque? Maybe he can put it towards server costs.

  • This one goes out to Aravosis, J.
    Who needs his bling and Courvoisier
    But can’t get none of that tax mon-ey
    Cause all the rebates goin’ to punks in Topek-A

    J is trippin that 75 Gs
    Gets you a McMansion in B.F.E.
    But J’s got mad expenses in the city
    and he’s livin’ in six-figure poverty.

    But if John Boy thinks 75 is nothin’
    not even enough for a Starbucks muffin
    then I suggest he save some of his puffin’
    and get his ass over to E.F. Hutton

  • Pinko you got disappeared! that emu moves fast!!

  • I know someone who got an entire house in Ohio for $2000 a month when that would get you a one-bedroom apartment in DC.

    Yeah, but they have to live in Ohio. I’d rather be poor than live in Ohio.

  • Ahem. PP, email me. I have goodies for you.

  • I love how Aravosis keeps changing the URL so people’s links to his article keep breaking. Usually, bloggers want people to link to their work.
