Local "Media" "Assaulted" by a Paramedic on a "wild attack".

Here's what went down. Basically, a couple of local bloggers (who have previously been shown to be fucking nuts) called 911 when they saw some guy sleeping on the sidewalk. CPD/CFD showed up, didn't see anything to worry about and took off. The two jerkoff bloggers, not satisfied with wasting emergency services time once, called 911 again. When CPD and CFD showed up, the two guys decided to start trouble:


Of course, there's nothing on the video but them beefing with the medic and a couple of stills showing one of the two showing his camera phone to the medic, but they're still proclaiming that they were "assaulted" by - I'm not making this up - "big brother".

For a much funnier take on this stuff check out The Stench a spoof off of The Bench.

Like I always say though: if you fancy yourself a journalist, you have to report the story. You can't become the story or make the story like these 2 nuts. I sort of wonder though - between this incident and a previous incident where these two guys were stalking some little boys - at some point these guys are going to get out of control. I wonder how long before we have a very serious incident.

Fake Steve Fires Fake Jerry

And not a moment too soon. Fake Jerry was kinda funny. Just not really as funny as the big man himself. Funny quotes from the dismissal of Jerry:

You suck, Jerry. You SUCK! Your company sucks and you suck and your blogging sucks! I hope you don't fuck as badly as you blog, because if you do I'm going to send some flowers to your wife to cheer her up. Seriously, dude. You suck, and you're fired.

He goes, Well, I've been working on something big, but I wanted to think about it. I'm like, Think? You wanted to think? Dude, Rule Number One in blogging is this: Don't think -- write. Ever read Scoble? That's how it's done, chum. You don't think -- you type this shit as fast as you can, whatever random thoughts come into your head. It's all about the volume, baby. Seen Valleywag? Or TechCrunch? Or GigaOm? Or AllThingsD? Or Alley Insider? Alley Insider is doing a hundred and fifty posts a day, and Blodget still wants more from those guys. He's standing there with a whip behind Kafka and Frommer going, More, bitches! More, more, more!

I have another classic example.

There are 2 groups of Rogers Park Bloggers The insane and the....

I haven't figured out what the other group is. I have no intention of ever becoming involved in the bizarre local blogging scene.

Shit like this is about as silly as you get.

Reside on Morse (1340 West Morse Avenue) has been off my radar since the building has been going through construction. For the most part they've been pretty decent with the construction and noise. That's until today.

What I saw was most disturbing. Just a bit shocking... and I'd dare to say - maybe illegal?

So, I called their office out of courtesy. I waiting a reasonable amount of time considering the health and employment implications involved in this matter. They didn't return my call for two and a half hours. They didn't seem all that concerned about the situation when they did call back.

Also note that some of those ninny's are actually going to dial 911 about this.

Ya know, and what scares me here isn't that there are actually neighborhood bitty's with computers. Most of their "activism" is mainly targeted at big developers (who don't give a shit), the ghetto folks (who don't have access to 'puters), and the alderman (who doesn't give that much of a shit). What bothers me is that, god forbid, there comes a time when I have to dial 911, I don't want to get laughed off because the neighborhood candy asses have cried wolf so many times.

Telling though. Some of these folks adore grinding the axe against those evil development companies (probably paid by TIF's, no less) that they're willing to pick on some kids who's dad is putting in a 10 hour day hanging drywall. What a profound lack of balls.

Funny:

If it were a hundred years ago and I were to tell you that a Cubs player will be hit by lightening long before the Cubs will win another World Series, I'd be totally right.
