Hey, it's Father's Day

Here's a little song forHalburn.
How's it feel for another man to be raising your "son", fatass?
At least he's a man the boy can look up to instead of one to be embarrassed about.

The Crazy Wall

Halburn is OBSESSED with getting his kid's picture taken. He gets his picture taken constantly.

Halburn lives in a tiny, one bedroom garage apartment in Dunbar. Virtually every single inch of wall space is covered with pictures of the boy. It's a creepy shrine. There can't be an inch of wall space without a picture. It's not that big.

He takes the kid and has his Portrait made for every single birthday, Valentines Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, school, soccer, basketball, the list goes on and on. 

You know when the police go to a serial killer's home and his walls are covered with his victims' pictures?  It's like that. 

And these aren't pictures most people have in their houses. 4x6s, 8x10s. No. That's not good enough for MARK FUCKING HALBURN. 
These are 10x13s, 16x20s. Huge prints, almost poster sized. And all framed.
All this from a guy who makes less than minimum wage and had his child support payment cut at least three times.

And he's been banned from almost every photo studio in town.
Sears
Target
LifeTouch
Portrait Innovations

He goes in and immediately starts complaining.
He had to wait. They couldn't accommodate his special requests. The photographer wouldn't do what he wanted. Other patrons and their kids are annoying. Harassing employees. Calling names. Throwing things. Reshoots. And all with a coupon. And he still complains about the results.
Which results many of the times in comped pictures.
He bitches enough and they just give it to him.

At one point he even borrowed a prop from another photographer and took it to Target for them to use. That takes a lot of nerve.

As the kid gets older he looks more & more uncomfortable in these photos.  What used to be smiles have turned to grimaces. That kid has to have some emotional problems from this stuff.

"At Target Portrait Studio having the boy's annual Father's Day portrait shot. There are children (REPEATEDLY) whining "mommy" and "daddy" to parents who are 1) Ignoring them. 2) Failing to tell their lovelies to "QUIET!" Then there are the middle school and elementary school sisters who are LITERALLY slapping each other around while their "dad" ignores them. Makes me grateful that 1) I would NEVER ignore the boy this way. 2) He KNOWS not to whine. 3) He is an ONLY child! ROFL!!! (It could be worse-BROTHERS draw blood!) Next, I will go to the pain killer aisle and buy a HUGE bottle of Excedrine Maximum Strength!"

1). You would NEVER ignore the boy this way? Not unless you were writing an article for your blog or posting on Facebook or attacking someone on Topix or digging through the trash for bottle caps.
2). Only daddy is allowed to whine.

DENIED!

In his ongoing battle to be recognized as a legitimate journalist, Halburn has been soundly rejected again by West Virginia State University.

At least there's one government office that has the balls to tell him no.

 

Not a bonafide news service? Has she not seen his headset?
Many times it is easier to get press credentials with a title of 'blogger' or 'podcaster' than that of journalist, of course it helps if you're not an asshole too.    
 
I'm sure he has already located Ms. Osborne's address and is in the process of  harassing  her unmercifully.

Thrown Out of Target - Harass more. Behave Less

Halburn and his 8 year old son were thrown out of an area Target a few weeks ago.
Seems the corpulent complainer spotted  WV Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry, couldn't control himself and began verbally attacking the jurist, so he and his son were escorted out of the store.

WV Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry

Halburn describes what he imagined happened,

"Target allowed Lunatic Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry to yell at my son when I told him to stay away from Loughry.
I spoke to my son - not the justice. The justice started screaming at us and even tried to intimidate Target's staff by whipping out a badge. I told the justice to leave us alone and immediately took my son away from the hothead justice and went shopping in the rear of the store. The justice continued to get in our face and continued to intimidate their staff. I asked to speak to the assistant manager about the issue and we went outside to avoid the screaming justice. I have, since, been back in the store, to shop."

A few days later he continued with his lies.

"An out-of-control Target customer and management's failure to properly deal with said customer now has (his second ex-wife) distorting the incident in a court document. When I spoke to the store GM, he was rude. He refuses to let me talk to his district manager (obvious damage control!). I am referred to Guest Relations where I repeatedly am connected to an (apparent) overseas call center where the CSRs overwhelm me with their heavy accents." 

Of course, his story is complete self-serving bullshit, as usual.

He also says Target apologized to him.
Businesses don't apologize when they throw a disruptive customer out.

 
What really happened?

When Halburn saw the justice, he started making snide remarks in a very loud voice to the kid, calling the Justice an "unethical politician" among other names, while following the Loughry through the store, causing a scene.  
The entire Target store heard him because that was his intention. He knows better than to just outright attack the guy, so he used the kid. Why not just take the boy and WALK AWAY???

This is exactly the type of behavior the WV Supreme Court wrote about when they said, " Halburn will create conflict with third parties which might scare or alarm or traumatize [the child] or place the young child in reasonable apprehension of bodily harm caused by others, or, if  Halburn is arrested yet again, might result in the child being placed in the temporary care of unknown private or public third parties until [the child's mother] can retrieve him."

This is why you'll never have custody of your son, Halburn.

Fired Again

Well, that didn't take long.

After bragging about "Getting a chance to work in some college towns in the southeast this month", It appears Halburn has lost yet another job after just two weeks.
Funny how a company that hired someone to stock gas station shelves prefers that person to not harass hotel clerks and restaurant employees while working for them.


UPDATE:

We made our post at 10:36. Halburn made this post at 10:53. Seventeen minutes later. The whole post from the courageous cat saver is a huge lie.

You know, for someone who doesn't care, he sure does talk about it a lot.
HE can't ignore it because we've been living rent-free in his head since 2009.
Looks like he has plenty of time to sit around on his fat ass and lie some more since he got fired again.

Stocking gas station shelves is not a "project."

He still can't keep those CVS Facebook lies straight.
Now he says he "quit" in March after giving notice in February.
You don't get escorted out of your workplace kicking and screaming by a security guard when you quit.

On April 12 he wrote:
"they wonder why I resigned March 1st!"

Then, on April 18, he said:
" I quit, in February"

Which is it fatboy?
Either way you've lost another job.
Once they find out what an psycho asshole you are, they fire your ass.

Election Hijinx 2016

Here's an amusing item about one of Halburn's "advertisers."
He has been running a huge ad for Doug Reynolds, the Cabell county political hack running for Attorney General, across the top of his blog since January. Reynolds is a big Halburn supporter.

Funny thing is, the campaign expenditure reports are out, and nowhere in any of Reynolds' reports do they list any expenditures for advertising on Halburn's blog, either as a straight out ad buy or an in-kind contribution.
The ad clearly states: "Paid For by Reynolds for Attorney General."
Which poses the question, who is breaking the law here?

Shouldn't a candidate for the office of Attorney General be above this sort of shenanigans?

Glenn Jeffries, who is running for State Senate, has a similar ad with Putnum Live which shows in his pre-primary reporting as a $1000 ad expenditure.

Remember, no politician who runs an ad with Halburn is fit to hold office.

Douchin' It Up In Danville

Which PsychoPublisher was involved in another hotel incident?

Since Halburn was fired from CVS, he's been scrambling to find a new job. Apparently, he hoodwinked some company to hire him and they sent him to Danville VA for some sort of training. We're not sure what sort of company would hire someone like him, but it didn't take long for the hilarity to begin. 

Halburn likes to frequent the trailer park of the internet, Topix, and post his scurrilous complaints using one or another of his sock puppets.
Here's the first of three posts that he's made so far.
Funny how every encounter he has at a hotel involves the phrase "threatened to call the police"

"Sleep Inn
Road Warrior
AWFUL SERVICE!
I travel, a lot, on business. When I was driving in, I was concerned about the accuracy of my GPS. So I called the hotel. The overnight clerk was clueless.
In the morning, I asked for directions to the local business that I would be servicing. The clerk gave me directions that took me in the opposite direction! I was late to the client!!!(The REAL location was two blocks away, but my false directions had me turn before I saw it!) When I complained to the daytime manager, she was RUDE and said, "I would have done the same thing."
There were ANTS in my bathroom.
Another guest woke me up at 4:30 a.m. with their television. The front desk handled it - but no apology. The next day, I mentioned this to the day manager, who was RUDE AGAIN!
My company had to add another night to my reservation. They faxed in the pre-paid ccard, but the day manager DEMANDED my card, and scanned it. She said, "We need to have a card on file." She was RUDE! As I walked out to my car, I commented, "Unbelieveable!" Her response was, "This is standard procedure!" She told me that the first clerk made a mistake by not taking my ccard number,(WRONG! The hotel was provided a ccard by our travel agency!) Later, I checked my account balance and found that the daytime manager SCREWED UP and BILLED ME instead of the preauthorized credit card that she was faxed by the travel agency, SHE BILLED ME! When I called the desk, I was told nothing could be done and that the GM would take care of it the next morning. I advised her that I was leaving at 6:00 a.m. and needed to have the manager call me within 5 minutes so that I could go to sleep. She did, and threatened to call the police, threatened to call my company, threatened to call Choice.(I'd already called my company! They already knew about the bad directions as I shot a picture of them and texted it to my boss!!!)
Later, they fixed the charge on my credit card. Too late. I WILL NOT RETURN!
In a previous career, I worked for multiple hotels from coast-to-coast. This hotel's service is AWFUL!!!
NEVER STAY AT THE SLEEP INN at Danville, Virginia!
I forgot to mention the unreliable Internet!"

Wow, it's really refreshing to see a hotel complaint from Halburn that doesn't involve a swimming pool.

 

Halburn is also upset he had to pay extra for cheese on his greasy hamburger. Here's his first food complaint of the week.
The most hilarious part is where he says he "travels across the country." This fucker hasn't been able to afford to leave Dunbar, much less travel across the country. When his mom died, his sister had to pay for his ticket to California.

"Ham's restaurant
Danville VA

Unknown eater
Tuesday
Great cheeseburgers. Lousy service. They also have a Swiss * Cheddar cheese option in the "build your own burger" section. But when I ordered it, they demanded an extra .75 cents. The manager was a real witch about it, too.
I travel across the country and found the Ham's service to be among the slowest. AWFUL!"

Here's his next food complaint.
Everything is so important ... Business travel, blah blah blah. 
He's a very busy businessman who is very busy with business.
He also doesn't appear to know the difference between a per diem and a reimbursement.

Is there anything that ever goes right for him? Ever?
It's mind blowing that a person has bad experiences with literally everything.
Also, stop eating cheeseburgers for every meal.

"KickBack Jack's
Danville VA
Unknown eater
I am spending a few days, in Danville, on business. My hotel recommended KickBack Jack's and told me about $5 appetizers. But when I called the restaurant, I learned that they were during "limited hours" and I was just past the 6:00 deadline for "the special" price. I spoke to the manager, thinking he would take care of a business traveler, but he wouldn't and sounded like he was reading from a script. Because I have a meal "per diem" (Where I am reimbursed) I watch my expenses.
I went to the restaurant, the next day, and the server denied they had a $5 appetizer special. At this point I nearly walked out. However, she checked with management and admitted she was wrong. I thought MAYBE we were "turning the corner."
Then I received my meal.
My "medium rare" cheeseburger was DEFINITELY rare. BARELY cooked. I advised the manager, and it took about 10 minutes to get the food replaced. When I received the replacement burger it was STILL on the "rare" side, but I didn't want to repeat the process.
Then things got MUCH better. The server was on top of her game, checking regularly and providing stellar service.
LOTS of big screens to watch the games. Not overwhelmingly loud like many sports-related restaurants.
I will go back to KickBack Jack's, but I will make sure they properly cook my meal."

If I were an employee at KickBack Jack's, the next time you came back,  I would make sure I not only spit in your food, I'd jerk off in it too.
