Halburn Outs Undercover Officer




Flabby Blabbermouth Publishes Name, Picture

Recently Halburn wrote a story on his attack blog about a Putnam County Deputy who was returning to the drug unit.

That story included the name and several photographs of the officer.
This is even after him bragging right here on PutnamLIES.com
on November 7, 2009,

"We don't report security plans-at the request of law enforcement. It's called not revealing the playbook to the bad guys. It's called responsible journalism.... We also don't report the names of undercover police or how many cops work certain shifts. And when some knucklehead sent me photos of the homes of Hurricane PD officers, we didn't publish them either."

If a guy is going back into an undercover drug unit, doesn't a news story kind of defeat the purpose?
Halburn might as well write, "Hey, dope dealers, here's a photo and story about this guy who's a cop."

Undercover officers don't want their picture in newspapers or online, even if they're not ID'd.
But no, here's this big feature story with a photo about this cop who's going to be sending guys from Detroit to jail. Good luck.

Way to endanger a police officer's life, Halburn.

This is just more of the irresponsible, unethical conduct that we have come to expect from PutnumLive.com and Mark Halburn.


PutnamLIES.com does not publish the names or photos of law enforcement officers that are working undercover in order to not jeopardize their lives.

We do practice responsible journalism.

Halburn Stalking Putnam County Residents

Unemployed Loser Has Plenty Of Time

He lives in a $300 a month garage apartment in Dunbar but at the end of November, Mark Vance Halburn felt the need to drive his filthy Korean sub-compact almost 20 miles to retired Judge William Watkins' neighborhood where he accosted him and shouted questions at him.

He followed Watkins walking his dog, Buddy, in his Briarwood Estates subdivision, on Saturday, November 23rd, 2013. Somehow he avoided Buddy. Halburn is well known for striking dogs with his vehicle and later finding damages.

This wasn't a casual meeting on Halburn's part. He had to specifically make the effort to drive into Watkins' subdivision and onto the cul de sac where Watkins' home is located.



Halburn stalks retired Judge William Watkins.

Two weeks later, Halburn was after another of his long time targets, Dr. Joseph Matusic, Jr., a Charleston pediatrician. Halburn stalked him to the studios of WCHS TV where the doctor appears on the Eyewitness News segment  "Baby Steps." He then proceeded to photograph the doctor's car.

Halburn then followed Matusic through the slick, snow covered streets of Charleston while
negligently driving and shooting video at the same time. 

Halburn, who illegally drove until March 2013 with a South Carolina license after moving back to West Virginia in November 2012, criticizes Matusic for having an expired sticker.
The question remains: Why didn't Halburn pay to register his car like the rest of us?

Matusic previously had a restraining order against Halburn. Looks like it's time to get
get back in Court and get another one.

Two words for you, motherfucker:

Castle doctrine.


 
Halburn stalks Charleston pediatrician Joseph Matusic.

Read Dr. Matusic's story here:
http://www.babymd.net/stalker.html


What we see in both videos is a lispy fat man with a video camera panting about things nobody cares about. It's like he woke up and went to his pee stained enemies notebook and picked a name.

It appears that Halburn has plenty of time to stalk productive citizens, but no time to find a job with which he could help support his 6 year old son by paying an adequate child support.
No wonder his second ex-wife divorced him.

Citizens are urged to be vigilant and report any incidents of stalking by Halburn to law enforcement. You could be next!!!

As his mental evaluation stated,
“Given his degree of agitation and volatility, any threats made by Mr. Halburn should be taken seriously and dealt with appropriately.”

HALBURN LEAVES FAMILY COURT IN HANDCUFFS!!!

Kelly Takes No Shit From Fatman 

On Friday, November 15th, 2013, less than 24 hours after losing his divorce appeal before the WV Supreme Court, Mark Vance Halburn was removed from Kanawha County Family Court in handcuffs on Friday morning. He was then placed in a holding cell in the Courthouse for several hours.
Mark Vance Halburn is led out of Kanawha County County Family Court in handcuffs.
Halburn gets fitted for a nice pair of silver bracelets.

Halburn titled this "Kelly Screws Up", but the screw up in this case is Halburn, not the Judge.
 
In the above courtroom video, Halburn is told six times that he defied the Court's order by mailing in his required payment (Halburn calls them "illegal sanctions"). A previous court ruling ordered Halburn to deliver any payments personally to the Court because he is an untrustworthy weasel.
In a typical Halburn power play, he took it upon himself to defy the Court's order and mail in his payment.
Kelly told Halburn, "You are not going to call the shots... You are no longer going to dictate how you're going to do things".
Halburn then continued to argue with the Judge.

At that point, the Judge ordered Hallburn handcuffed and detained for contempt.

Halburn says the check he mailed was delivered the day before.
BIG FUCKING DEAL!
You were ordered to personally bring the payment to the Court, not mail it, shithead.
What part of that don't you understand?

Nobody is going to prosecute this because absolutely no law was broken. 
You defied a court order. That's contempt.
For someone who claims to be as smart as you are, this shouldn't be hard.

"Illegal sanctions?" 
No. Kelly is a judge. He's not outside the law.
You're being penalized for dragging out your divorce at great expense to your second ex-wife. Pay up you deadbeat fuck.



This is the September 10th, 2013 order restraining Mark Halburn from entering the Family Court.

This is part of the hearing where Halburn was banned from entering Family Court unless he has a hearing there.

PutnamLIES.com will have more details as they become available.

Supremes Smack Down Halburn

Justices Reject Fatboy's Lunatic Behavior
Area man's website determined by Court to be a blog


In a not unexpected decision, The West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals has issued their opinion on Mark Vance Halburn's appeal of the outcome of his divorce case.


The case is referred to as Mark V. H v. D. J. M.
In cases involving sensitive facts, the Supreme Court's usual practice refers to the parties and other individuals by their initials.
We, however, will not be bound by that practice.



In a per curiam decision (a ruling that is delivered via an opinion issued in the name of the Court rather than specific judges) the Court reversed the decision made by Putnam County Circuit Judge Phillip Stowers in Halburn's original appeal granting Halburn additional visitation with his son and affirmed the original decision made by Kanawha County Family Court Judge Michael Kelly.

The Court characterized Judge Kelly's original decision as, "well-reasoned, well-documented and legally sound."

In Halburn's appeal of the original order, Stowers awarded him overnight visits and the ability to take the boy on out of state day trips. All other provisions of the original order remained unchanged.


Of course for Halburn, being Halburn, that wasn't enough. Sure, he wanted the kid, but he also wanted money. Lots of money. One million trillion dollars.
So he appealed to the Supreme Court.


Which turned out badly for him.

It's one thing to read the unhinged ramblings of a crazy man, it's another to have it on display in the courtroom. 

 Just a few highlights from the Court's opinion.

The bottom line in their ruling rested on this:
"A circuit court may not substitute its findings of fact for those of a family court judge merely because it disagrees with those findings"


and

"Both the family court and the circuit court based their findings and conclusions on the best interests of the child. “In visitation as well as custody matters, we have traditionally held paramount the best interests of the child.”

“[i]n a contest involving the custody of an infant the welfare of the child is the polar star by which the discretion of the court will be guided."


"The family court’s limitations of the Husband’s contact are amply supported by the evidence, and it was an abuse of the circuit court’s discretion to overrule the family court’s order in this regard." 

"There are many references to matters not contained in the record, including references to postings by the Husband in his Internet blog. The New Oxford American Dictionary 183 (3rd Ed. 2010) defines a blog as “a personal website or webpage on which an individual records opinions, links to other sites, etc., on a regular basis.”

"The record also contains a number of nonsensical pleadings, including a document entitled “Order of Sanctions” authored by the Husband, in which the Husband “orders” in part that the presiding judge pay to the Husband and his son an incredible and unimaginable sum of money for various perceived wrongs to the Husband. For one such “infraction,” the Husband demands that Judge Kelly pay “one million trillion dollars” for being a “total [sic] corrupt, arroganrt [sic], incompetent jackass.” For failing to require the Wife to undergo a psychological evaluation, the Husband attempts to impose a $999 trillion per day sanction on the Wife for every day since the exam was ordered." 

"This particular document was accompanied by a document entitled “Order of Lien and Garnishment” in which the Husband attempts to encumber Judge Kelly’s home (identified by address) and attach his wages as payment of the aforesaid “Order of Sanctions.”


One of the primary reasons for Halburn's lack of custody was the results of two mental evaluations given to him.

Again, Fatlock's brilliant legal strategies come back to bite him in his fat ass.
"It was the Husband’s motion for the parties to undergo psychological testing (in this case)"


"not reveal any outward signs of psychological issues or strange behavior on the part of the Wife that would have some bearing on her parenting of the child. The Husband’s conduct throughout these proceedings, however, all viewed by Judge Kelly over a period of months, is strongly supportive of his need for such an evaluation "

Had he accepted Stowers gift and just STFU, this wouldn't have happened.
As always, Mark Halburn is Mark Halburn's worst enemy. An epic legal fail on his part.


This appeal is final and no rehearing is allowed. The case will now be sent back to the jurisdiction of the Family Court, where Halburn will make everyone's life miserable for the foreseeable future.

Supreme Court Decision

Thursday, November 7, 2013

First Tuesday In November

Mr. Douche Goes To Charleston
 

Mark Vance Halburn's long dreamed appeal of the final order of his divorce, issued by Kanawha County Family Court Judge Michael Kelly, was heard before the WV Supreme Court on Tuesday, and as expected, he beclowned himself.













Security was heightened in and around the courtroom for his appearance Tuesday, with extra Court officers on hand in the Court itself and at least 20 extra Troopers from the WV State Police in force across the Capitol grounds.

Halburn, who represented himself, came before the highest court in the state dressed once again like a homeless slob, immediately tried a sympathy ploy with his "I'm mostly deaf in one ear ..." excuse. This, from the man that claimed to be able to hear a pin drop in the Hurricane Walmart parking lot.

It was a trainwreck. 

The Court made it clear at the top this wasn't to introduce new evidence. Any attempts by Halburn to grandstand or shit talk were immediately shut down. No bullshit was tolerated at all.

Halburn presented his excuses while laying all over the historic lectern. Jeezus, you lazy bastard, can't you stand up straight for 10 minutes?

Halburn's case consisted not of pointing out of errors in the law made by Judge Kelly, but of him explaining how all the ass-showing incidents he has been involved with over the years were all misinterpreted. The airports, the hotel pools, the arrests, the restraining orders, etc.

We've heard all of the arguments before. First Amendment, my civil rights, dead mother, false testimony, half truths, exaggerations, yadda, yadda, yadda...

The arguments were streamed by the Court and you can be guaranteed their server was overloaded.

 
All the questioning was done by Chief Justice Brent Benjamin.

Surprisingly, Margaret Workman, a vocal child advocate, did not speak.
It had to be difficult for her to remain silent with a notorious domestic abuser before her.
Perhaps the court didn't want her to be a target in the event she's elected the next Chief Justice, which rotates every year. 
And, since Halburn will certainly petition for rehearing once he gets their opinion, she may be at the head of the Court that will deny that.
So, knowing that no woman tells Mark Halburn his business, it's possible they're just trying to stave off attacks on her.

Justice Menis Ketchum, a favorite target of Halburn's insane behavior, remained mute throughout.
It's almost like they all agreed beforehand that only the Chief would talk.
 
Justice Robin Davis was absent.

One of the first questions Benjamin asked Halburn was about a letter submitted to the court that was alleged to be from Judge Kelly. The fraudulent letter, in which he impersonates a judicial official, was referenced in Halburn's final divorce order, It was determined by the Family Court to have come from Halburn. It is shown here in its entirety.

April 27, 2012
Mr. Rory Perry
WV Supreme Court Clerk
Charleston. WV

I Michael J. Kelly have violated the rights of XXXXXX Halburn and Mark  Halburn. I allowed Henry Glass to repeatedly lied in court. I refused to allow Mark Halburn to correct Glass's lies and improperly threatened to throw Mark Halburn out of a conference call hearing. I have repeatedly refused to correct my improper temporary order. I violated XXXXXX Halburn's right to a Spring Break vacation in Myrtle Beach. I am an embarrassment to the legal profession.

Therefore, I immediately vacate my temporary order. I award Mark Halburn the marital home and full custody of XXXXXX Halburn immediately.

I then resign my position as Kanawha County Family Court judge due to my incompetency and arrogance. I agree to move to another state and never practice law or hold public office again.

Sincerely,

Michael J. Kelly

Halburn was asked repeatedly about the fake Kelly letter. Four times. Four. And each time he insisted someone hacked his email. He also said that the email that said that his son missed the opportunity to see his mother was  also sent by a hacker. 

The divorce order says the Kelly letter was submitted. Does not at all say emailed. It says the letter was submitted.  And looking at the letter, it is clearly written as a business letter, not as an email.

Benjamin wanted to know why the language in Halburn's motion was the same as the letter that purported to be from Michael Kelly? He specifically hit on how this letter specifically cites Spring Break and Myrtle Beach and Halburn's motions do as well, especially in light of all of this happening after Halburn had relocated to Myrtle Beach.

Halburn's response?  Blah, blah, blah, dodge, dodge, hack, hacked, hacked, hacked, I have proof I was hacked, I didn't send that email, I was set up by blogs. He alleges that he filed a police report in Fullerton CA. Why there he offered no explanation.
He had FOUR opportunities to come clean.

Halburn actually brought up the voices in his head when he was trying to defend how he would never send anything like that to the court. He said something to the effect of "You can even ask Steve Canterbury that when I was in Poca at Heritage Days and I heard a voice behind me asking me if I wanted them to take care of Watkins or the court that I told him to try to protect the court.

There is no way to describe the level of insane.

Halburn was then asked where he lived when he came back from failing as a part-time bait counter help in South Carolina. Halburn quickly went into a story about having to move to South Carolina because he was "hurting" and finally got around to saying "Dunbar." Benjamin asked two additional times if he had lived anywhere else besides Dunbar after he moved back to West Virginia from South Carolina. It was never in the order that he lived with a kiddie diddler, but the Court knows he did. So they asked. A few times. Each time he insisted he had lived only in Dunbar.

When asked on several occasions how many times he's been arrested since his divorce appeal Halburn begrudgingly had to acknowledge his arrest, but couched everything with how it's still unresolved. Halburn was convicted and sentenced to 45 days in jail but is appealing.

Halburn was asked about what he owed and if he was paying, and he replied he was paying early and more than the required amount. and by more, he means he rounds up to the next dollar. Mr. Generous. Then he complained about having to pay his part of the boy's medical bills for an ER visit.

At one point Halburn asked for a show of hands, like he was on a game show.
Justice Allen Loughry, making his only statement of the day, told Halburn that the Court wasn't answering questions and to get on with it.

Halburn's second ex-wife holds her head as he tries to engage Supreme Court Justices.
Halburn also claimed to not know where his son goes after school -- saying specifically "I don't know where he goes" -- but also claimed he was told the boy goes to sit at his mothers office where a 10-year-old child "watches" him. Another lie. He knows good and well where the boy goes because he and his child molesting buddy followed the school bus there to serve the mother with a summons.


Toward the end of his "rebuttal" to Ms M's testimony, Halburn then went on a rant about how he doesn't know why Ms. M says he says he would take her son to California and never come home. 

In a back and forth about how Kelly order said the visitation situation would be re-evaluated when he was 10, which gave Halburn 4 years to get his shit together, Ms. M said the boy is already fighting her about going to Daddy's house on weekends and she's making him do it. 
She's in no way, shape or form preventing or hindering his relationship with the child. Not at all.

And the mental evaluation that he trumpets over and over as calling him parent of the year actually says he's ignoring the kid. It actually says that he isn't interacting with him.

"This examiner notes having had a brief, unplanned opportunity to observe Mr. Halburn with his son the day following his initial evaluation. Mr. Halburn and (the boy) were visiting a local park. It is believed that Mr. Halburn was unaware of this examiner's presence at the same park. Mr. Halburn... was not actively interacting with him at the time of the observation."

The Court pointed out he's had two court ordered psych exams. One by Hudson and one by Thistlewait for the Walmart litigation.
And immediately Halburn went on defensive saying that Thistlewait was a "hired gun with zero credibility" and he was hired specifically to libel him, etc. 
The Court wasn't having any of it.
As Ms. M pointed out, they both essentially said the same thing. One just said it much more sharply.

Halburn did actually admit that his sole reason of choosing My Family Day Care was an ad trade-out and alleged that Ms. M's only reason for removing the boy from there was to damage his advertising relation with that business.

In trying to spin an 2008 airport incident where he and his family were kicked off a plane, he name drops Fox News anchor Brian Kilmeade.
BRIAN FUCKING KILMEADE.
This may have been the part where Allen Loughry started to laugh.

Another highlight was referencing how he wanted to move back to California and live a block down from Richard Nixon and go surfing.
Note to Halburn: Nixon has been dead for almost 20 years.

Then the MOTHERFUCKER DROPS A DELOREAN REFERENCE IN HIS SUPREME COURT HEARING!!!
Explaining it by saying, "That was humor" 
The only problem was that nobody laughed.

The only thing he left off was how he and Michael J. Fox were in Back to the Future together... Until they re-shot the scene where Halburn and his mom walked out of the J.C. Penney and into the shopping mall parking lot... So, he only made it to the cutting room floor!

Halburn came close to losing control at one point when talking about Kelly, he shouted, "He's a lying..." before stopping himself.

Toward the end, Halburn exhibited a case of fake crying.

Tyler Hollywood even got a sideways hat tip when the judge asked about a $20,000 that he made for Halburn's blog


Halburn's second ex-wife also represented herself.
She was extremely sympathetic, credible and did a very good job presenting her case.
Her main point was that the well being of the child comes first. NOT Mark Halburn's wants.

She expressed the anxiety she felt when Putnam County Circuit Court Judge Philip Stowers loosened up the travel and overnight restrictions Halburn had against taking the child out of state on weekends. She brought up his May 2013 car wreck with the child in the car. And that she doesn't know what really happened. She even was generous to say that she doesn't blame Halburn at all for what happened, because the fact remains that she doesn't actually KNOW what happened.
All she "knows" is that he insists it was a hit and run.
Here's what we think. Fatman fucks around on phone, hits divider wall, endangers child, blames someone else.

Her testimony was STRONG to tie everything to money. She referenced several motions and orders he'd filed in which each one demanded some kind of financial compensation -- $65,000 for a "settlement," $3,000 a month in spousal support, $1 million in sanctions against her lawyer, $10 billion in punitive damages for other things.
That was a great move on her part, because those Justices aren't dumb. Anybody who reads those motions can see that custody of that child equals money to him. It's a meal ticket to continue to pretend he's a big important newsman. The loving father barely mentions the boy by name.

This the end of the road for Halburn's appeal. There is no federal avenue of appeal here. He has no legal standing to bring it before the United States Supreme Court because there are no federal implications in this case. He can scream civil rights all he wants, but "fat, white, mentally unstable divorced guy" isn't a protected class.
Mark Halburn's Court run ends here, but we predict Ms. M will be in family court six times a year until he goes to jail or dies. Or he kidnaps the kid and tries to disappear.
 
Court watchers say the word immediately after the hearing was that this was probably the first time anybody had actually HURT their efforts by demanding an appeal. He did himself no favors.

An opinion is expected before the term ends in another two to three weeks.
The outcome will not be favorable for Mark Vance Halburn. By the end of the year he will be eating a big bucket of legal fail.


Here are the last 16 minutes of the oral arguments before the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia of Halburn's divorce appeal.




The WV Supreme Court case number is 13-0591, Mark H. v. DM.

Jesus Loves You



Halburn, Not So Much

Sunday is a day for family, friends and faith.
Unless you’re Mark Halburn. You don’t have the first two, so faith is all you have.
Unless your faith requires you to get in a shower. Then, probably not even faith.
Every weekend, PsychoPublisher Mark V. Halburn pops a status message like this up on his Facebook page:








When he isn’t posting from his Boost Mobile pre-paid cell phone, he ambles down the stairs of his garage tenement to get behind the wheel of his Korean sub-compact and drives somewhere to steal internet to update his hate blog or work on his very important legal documents or complete assignments for master’s degree in Human Resources. 

But come Hell or hot dog toaster bought with Best Buy Reward Zone coupons, he posts that message every week.
 

Don't mind the fact that he can't be bothered to get in his shitty little car and drive his fat ass the 14 miles to attend that church but can drive to a wifi hotspot to post that message.

Mark makes a big show of asking all of his friends to watch church services at this Putnam County church on its website. 
The church, which by all accounts is a thoughtful, engaging, positive community (why the hell do they even let Halburn in the door, then?), offers this service at no cost, and archives the sermons for people to revisit, also at no cost. The congregation is in the middle of a capital campaign to move to a new location that will accommodate its growth, so money is understandably tight. Wisely, it appears all extra resources are going toward saving for this project – a project that has its members excited beyond measure.

But not this member.

A couple of weeks ago, it seems something went down between Mark and some members of the church’s audio-video team. And, being the rational and mature man he is, Mark took to Facebook to vent his frustrations.







That’s right. The man who left a dick comment on an obituary  just shit talked the pastors of the church that currently hasn’t shown his fat ass the door. Oh, but this is only the beginning of him showing HIS ass to the rest of the world.

It turns out one of the members of the congregation didn’t appreciate Mark’s sentiments, and took the brave step of commenting about it, which led to the following exchange:

 


















As you can see above, this church member rightly points out that instead of being concerned about how the video looks, maybe Mark should be more focused on the message.

Maybe instead of worrying about mixers and inputs and other things that are just ancillary, he should take the message to heart, and maybe he could learn a thing or two. After all, it’s the content that counts, right?
Not to MARK FUCKING HALBURN!

Mark immediately swoops in to point out to this lowly church member that she’s essentially stupid, Mark is a genius, and he’s being big-leagued by church “leadership.” They are, as he says, “playing the ‘leadership’ card.”

Undeterred (lady, you’ve earned a place in Heaven for this …),  this church member points out that Mark’s comments aren’t done in a way to build up a pastor or congregation, and that having a knowledge or being a self-appointed professional in an area doesn’t make you the person who is most appropriate to decide for everybody what’s best for everybody. Additionally, she gently chides him for dragging this dirty laundry into an open forum such as Facebook.

Here, let us get to the crux of what she was actually saying to Mark:























You’d think that gentle shaming would be enough to end the discussion, right?
Well, no woman gets the last word on MARK HALBURN!

He responds by going back into his worn-out leadership argument – but he doesn’t mean THESE pastors! He means ALL of them. Not these ones! ALL!

During the remainder of the evening and into the next day, Hallburn went on a passive-aggressive bitchfit of postings, all related to this great crime of allegedly substandard church video.
















… Hrm. Not at all targeted messaging.




Oh, and here we go … Disagreeing with MARK FUCKING HALBURN doesn’t affect someone’s credibility. You want to talk about credibility? Let’s talk about credibility a minute, Fats. Other than coffee fetching, what actual experience do you have in television production? Handing a steaming cup o’ joe to a real reporter isn’t actual experience, no matter how much you want to tell people it is.







Seriously, motherfucker? Two days later and you’re still bitching? This is the battle you’re choosing? The last group of people on earth who haven’t told you go play a round of Hide and Go Fuck Yourself, and this is how you’re treating them?

But don’t let that stop you. Take it to the next level. Just go Vaguebooking.







I don’t know any balding, sweaty, fat asshole who fits that description at all. Glad you got that off your chest.

Oh … but by that Sunday you’re over it again. You had no trouble putting your principles on the shelf long enough to take your kid to their trick-or-treat event on Saturday night for free candy before or after you ignored him for a few hours in a McDonald’s as you do every other weekend. Good to know nothing trumps free food, you non-parenting bastard.

You’d think that’s where this story ends, but as Halburn would say … 

BUT WAIT!! THERE’S MORE!!

After a few days away staying in hotels, eating in restaurants, and not paying the cut-in-half child support he owes his second ex-wife, Mark posts this out of nowhere.


Where should we even begin with this one?


In case you don’t, let us refresh your memory.

Over the course of nearly two weeks, Hallburn came out with every explanation possible, altering his story several times each time it was proved he was a liar and this incident never happened. The story became more and more complex with additional layers, and each time Hallburn was pressed on Facebook for details about the incident, he simply ignored the posts. Complete non-response.
 
What drew attention to it repeatedly was his insistence on bringing it up again days after it was put to rest.

Kind of like this.

Why DID you bring this back up, Mark? Could it be that you were feeling a little bit of a frosty reception from members of the church who were more than a little insulted that a guy who can’t bring himself to ACTUALLY ATTEND SERVICES had the gall to tell them how to run THEIR video ministry?

So you expect people to actually believe that a guy who has never before billed himself as a church video production specialist all of a sudden gets a call out of nowhere from a southern Baptist church minister in Atlanta, Georgia, wanting Mark Halburn’s expertise?

Well, we’ll give you credit for one thing, fatboy. You’re getting better at making your stories too vague to be tracked down and busted. There has to be more than 100 Baptist churches in Atlanta. No way anybody could nail you on this one like you were reamed on your fake accident.

So you concoct this elaborate story. TAKE THAT, Putnam County church! THIS BIG CITY CHURCH CALLED ME OUT OF THE BLUE TO ASK ME WHAT I WOULD DO FOR THEIR VIDEO!! SCREW YOU! THEY RECOGNIZE TALENT! YOU RECOGNIZE EPIC FAIL.

Also … really? Hollywood is the Devil? What kind of dollar store stereotype handbook did you pull that bullshit out of, asshole? Just because this minister who doesn’t exist is allegedly from the deep south doesn’t mean he thinks Hollywood is occupied by the Devil. Good to see when you have a lack of a better case, you go back to your roots in racism. Even your imaginary friends are racists.

Other than one of your high school buddies you have snowed into thinking you have any skill or ability to tell anybody how to produce anything except a bowel movement, nobody’s buying this. But that doesn’t prevent you from getting in that one last subtle dig.

















Yeah, Dara … Why DID he call? Oh, wait. He didn’t. There. Answered that for you.

James: I’m sure he’d settle for someone buying him a hot meal at this point that doesn’t come from a dollar menu.

And you, asshole. Could you name drop any more? I’m willing to bet not a single one of those fuckers knows who you are. They didn’t ask you your name when you were handing them their coffee. 

Also, FUCK YOU and your West Virginia crack. You hate it here, Crisco? The door’s right there. Get the fuck out and don’t come back. You won’t be missed. Not even by your kid. Maybe his next father will feed him real meals and play with him outside. 

Called to the Most High? Are you MOST HIGH? Jesus Christ, nobody’s buying it. Nobody’s buying your role as attentive father, Christian businessman, video professional who loves the Lord. You’re a dirtbag. A scheming, conniving, backhanded, grifting dirtbag. The fact that you continue to insult a church that hasn’t turned its back on you shows what kind of a psychopath you are.

Go fuck yourself, God boy. Video your fat ass exiting the state.
