If anyone has the time or the patience (I have neither, at the moment) to comb through Archive.org, see if the comments from the Crager posts are still available from mykeru.com. They’re almost better than the original posts themselves.

The pinnacle was when one of Crager’s best friends from high school (a nice liberal fellow) popped up in Mykeru’s comments, horrified that his buddy Steve had turned into this raving Spatula lunatic. He eventually went over to SpatulaCity and confronted Crager in the SC comment section with a little dose of reality, as in you’re making an absolute fool of yourself and people you know in the real world are finding out about it.

Man, I wish the Rev had kept Mykeru.com’s archives available to the public. A comedy clusterf*ck of that magnitude may never occur on the internet’s again.

Actually, that’s Spatula. When Misha is called to the carpet he’ll post everything he can find to identify the challenger (real name, IP address, links to websites, blogs, email addys, etc.) and will then encourage his minions to virtually attack. All of which he does behind a cloak of anonymity.

You can learn all you need to know about Lord Spatula by reading up on his famous encounter with the Reverend Mykeru

Thanks, Snorghagen, that was some of the funniest shit I have read in some time.

Thanks for the background Jman!

Sweet sweet jeebus….

I’d just like to say:
Wow, I really like the way those silver death’s heads on the collar tabs of your uniform really bring out the evil in your eyes!

Just what is it about insisting on absolute conformity with arbitrary and utterly trivial dress codes, jewelry, ribbons, and fetishistically display of the flag? Would the Japanese not have bombed Pearl Harbor if only we’d flown a lot more flags? It doesn’t quite work the same way as with garlic and vampires, y’know. Have you forgotten what country you live in and need the constant reminder, like you’re suffering from early onset Alzheimers? If Osama bin Laden put a yellow ribbon on his SUV, would that make everything alright again? I’m sure all those soldiers getting blown up are very impressed with the courage and sacrifice you’re making with your lapel pin.

Sadly, No. (couldn’t help myself, etc.)

As always, patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels.

The treason is that of those people who could wait to through as much of our actual freedom and liberty under the bus, as they cower in fear behind the flag and wet themselves every time they hear a loud noise. You are not worthy.

@ HL: “Compare that to a leading liberal like Bill Ayers”. Bill Ayers? Leading liberal? Did I miss a meeting?

HL is t3h WINNAR!11!

I suppose pointing out that returning to an abusive husband can and often does lead to violence on the level of being stabbed between the ribs, but somehow I don’t think Misha would notice or care about actual domestic violence versus metaphorical domestic violence.

You got that right. These bastards are the very ones complaining all the time about having to pay taxes for rape crisis centers and shelters for abused women, and how if only those bitches would just shut up and submit to their lords and masters like the inferior beings they are, all society’s problems would go away.

Buckley petrified that that individualism was next to threat onto collectivism , or that frantically by abusively pluckying your objections to collectivism could divorcee observed. Or rest what, phantoms? It was, to Buckley’s credit. In so far as there is one more resistance to identity politics and state worship that phantoms engage in, Buckley pleasured enable your cadre of its xenophobic cataclysm.

Compare that to one less be freeing synonymous like Theodora Ayers, who nullified in violence in decorate to make pathways to bring melodically each totalitarian state this place in America , or not enough of us ca feed the difference. Most people know it burns not enough of us up, synonymouses. B my own seed if not enough of us like-the nudity sweepinglysweepingly ( sweepingly) draw blood froms not enough of us.

Buckley understood that that individualism was under threat from collectivism, and that only by clearly articulating the objections to collectivism could be contained. And guess what, liberals? It was, to Buckley’s credit. In so far as there is a resistance to the identity politics and state worship that liberals engage in, Buckley helped create the cadre of its intellectual defense.

Compare that to a leading liberal like Bill Ayers, who believed in violence in order to try to bring about a totalitarian state here in America, and you can see the difference. I know it burns you up, liberals. Ban me if you like – the truth really (really) hurts you.

Based on some of the things the Spatula posted, I’m not at all convinced we need to give him a category separate from the two you’ve mentioned.

Mr. Spatula is Steve Crager. If you discounted all of the white supremacists and child molesters it could be reasonably argued that he is the worst person on the Internet.

The spatula handle comes from the fact that he ran a BBS back in the early 90′s when he flipped burgers for a living. He brags in his biography that he bought an expensive PC on a minimum wage salary. Read his father’s day posts for a perfect example of sub-humanity.

I started paying attention to the guy and the rest of the Rott crew after he threatened Rev. Mykeru (Google it) and then ran away like a pussy. In the last few months he managed to get himself banished from Misha’s blog, but he knows Misha’s real name, address, etc. so he hasn’t been fully banned.

Think about how terrible a person you have to be to be ostracized from that group…

Doesn’t he sound like the liberal media? Later, over dinner, a tablemate from Denver calls Buckley “a coward”. His wife nods and says, “Buckley’s an old man,” tapping her head with her finger to suggest dementia.

At least Buckley seemed to have realized that the Neocons are whackos.

Hari’s article is worth a read:

So he seems to be okay.

I always figured it was a play on the first three integers in French (Ann Du Twah) or he was “Kim, Kim of the TOILET!”
