It must have been a rough night at Bukowski's the other night. Maybe Kevin Spacey wouldn't give him an autograph. Maybe Ty the Bouncer had to help him off the floor. Whatever the reason, William "Cry me a" Rivers Pitt was in his cups and in a foul mood. At times like that, Bottomless Pitt is wont to get on the internets and vent his spleen. When he does, Pie-eyed Griper Pitt is likely to take it out on his fellow DUmmies. And that, my friends, is one of Wee Willie's TWO entertaining and DUFUable personae.
You see, to paraphrase John Edwards, there are Two Pitts. One is the Pitt we first came to know and laugh at: Pied Piper Pitt (ca. 2004-06), the pompous, long-winded, leader of the pack of DUmmies, the "journalist" and self-imagined "player." But then, in a span of 24 business hours sometime in May of 2006 (aka Fitzmas), the other side, the dark side of Pitt, began to take over. I'll call this one, Peeved Sniper Pitt (ca. 2006-present). This is the guy who gets mad when he is mocked or questioned by mere ordinary DUmmies. This is the guy who insults his former followers, burns his bridges, storms off DUmmieland in a huff, but then, like a moth to the flame, comes back recanting a couple weeks later, because he needs an audience. Swinging wildly from Pied Piper Pitt to Peeved Sniper Pitt, it's a Pitt and the Pendulum thing.
Well, this latest rant is a DUzy. In fact, for this one I'm going to call him Peeved PYRO Pitt, and you will see why. Our Boy is in his profane, pugilistic persona, and there are 450 replies to follow! SOMEBODY shook up the ants! The THREAD is titled, with typical Pittian restraint, "OK, that's it. That's JUST ABOUT F***ING ENOUGH, thank you."
Oh, one more thing: Will picks as the target of his outrage what only a COUPLE of DUmmies have said, so the effect is that the majority of posters on this thread cheer Willie on and shower him with praise, which is no doubt the effect he desired. Some, though, find his rantics off-Pitting.
So now imagine we're sitting in a booth at Bukowski's overhearing Pitt and the DUmmies yap away, in Bolshevik (or Killian's?) Red, while the commentary of your humble guest correspondent and resident Pittologist, Charles Henrickson, wondering if Journalist Pitt can land a gig with Jason Leopold's new BackGroundBeefing.org, is in the [brackets]:
OK, that's it. That's JUST ABOUT F***ING ENOUGH, thank you.
[ATTENTION, everyone! Peeved Sniper Pitt is in the house!]
"I swear it is my great hope tha McCain wins the election." Your great hope? Really?
[Pitt is ready to lay into a DUmmie who was not impressed with either Hillary or Obama. Of course, the REAL purpose is to show that no one is, or has a right to be, more righteously indignant than William Rivers Pitt. Pitt Rule #1: It's ALWAYS all about Will.]
If so, you need to get out of the house more...so you can find some nice highway traffic to play in, you wretched pathetic pallid pale weak watery sh*tass excuse for an American.
[Pathetic Pallid Pale Pitt brings the hammer down!]
Second time in 48 hours I've seen this exact sentiment posted ON DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUND.
[Das ist verboten! Vote for Democratics only! Party Hack Pitt has spoken!]
I don't give one wet slippery sh*t who you support for the nomination.
[The Logorrheal One does not care if you prefer Ol' Crusty or B.O. Plenty.]
I don't care if you vote in the general come November, either. If you're so catastrophically f*cked in the head that you don't know the difference between the Devil and the deep blue sea come November, well...you represent 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000002% of the left-leaning electorate, so we can pretty much survive your masturbatory self-righteous abstinence. . . .
[Deep Blue Pitt does not care if you sit out in November.]
I don't care.
[He does not care.]
But. I. Swear. To. God.
[I. Am. So. Sick. Of. This. Tired. Period. Thingie.]
If I see another poster in this godforsaken testical-kick of a forum say they hope the GOP wins the White House in November, I will personally burn your f*cking house down, drive your car into the nearest available bridge strut, ruin your credit, deflower your chicadee, manhandle your couch cushions after eating lye with my bare hands, and make you watch while I sit down in the charred wasteland of your former livingroom and punch myself in the face over and over and over and over and over again, until the chicadee throws in the towel or until you pee your pants and promise never to do it again.
[Look out, DUmmies! Peeved Pyro Pitt gonna burn your house down! And deflower your chickadee! It's been a while since Pedagogue Pitt has deflowered a chickadee. Actually, the part I want to see is where Pugilist Pitt punches himself in the face over and over and over and over and over again.]
The Supreme Court matters, assbag. Choice matters.
[Gasbag Pitt reminds everyone of what is at stake, what is indeed the Most Sacred Value of the Democrat Party: Big Abortion MUST be preserved at all costs! We MUST protect a woman's right to get rid of An Inconvenient Youth!]
Lather rinse repeat.
[Blather, rant, re-Pitt.]
Gonna be a lot of smoke and sore-ass birds if this stupid idiotic self-destructive garbage comes up again on my watch.
[Wee Willie Threat Level: Orange. Now for the reaction in DUmmieland. . . .]
THe voice of reason!
[The voice of Riesling!]
Will, you're like a grownup among kindergartners.
[Junior High to High is more Will's speed.]
William! Take a deep breath and GO TO YOUR ROOM!!!!!!!!!
[Mother Pitt, aka DUmmie Raven, sends Wee Willie to his room, as she fetches the Lifebuoy.]
Willy is fired up!
[Willy is used to getting fired.]
How ever much you actually do post around here, Will... It's not enough. It's not nearly enough. Please post more. Thank you.
[Ah, the post worked! Praise for Pitt!]
Not that you're wrong, but the style is the greatest blow to your credibility since Fitzmas.
[Oh, oh! Someone said the "F" word! Pitt will not like this. . . .]
I'm Biblically knowing your chicadee at this exact moment.
[Willie gives him the bird. So to speak.]
Tell me again about the indictments, Lenny -- I mean Pitty. . . .
[Of Mice and Fitzmas.]
The only thing I've noticed in some of your posts that you've seemed to put a hurtin' on - is a bottle of liquor!
[A-hurtin' we will go, a-hurtin' we will go. . . .]
Burn their houses down! I would have thought that people uttering such a thing would be TSed.
[Pitt has a special "Get Out of Tombstoning" pass from the TSA.]
there are many places, such as Massachusetts, Illinois, and Kansas, where a DU can write in the name of The Pied Piper and it would not make a TANJ bit of difference. . . .
["The Pied Piper"?! Somebody's been reading the DUmmie FUnnies!]
After all this *is* the DEMOCRATIC Underground. Not the "Feckless, Braindead, Lunatic, Repubican-loving Underground"
[D*mn straight! This is the Feckless, Braindead, Lunatic, DEMOCRATIC Underground!]
WORD. That is all.
[WILL. That is all.]
You know where I live?
[Mom's basement?]
I support anyone's right to rant, but I still think your ego and need for being the center of attention, are very unflattering. "On YOUR watch"..... As my mother used to say, "who died and left you boss?"
[He is the Great and Powerful Pitt!]
Don't envy Will for his popularity. Envy his sophisticated ale palette!
[Beerness envy?]
Rant of the Year?
[Rant of the Beer?]
Threatening to burn their houses down? It seems like this thread should be locked AND deleted.
[OK, now wait for the comeback. . . .]
It will be..... in 24 business hours.
[Burn!]
William Pitt - my hero of the day *sigh*
[The sought-after effect.]
I'm getting tired of your constant self-promotion and chest-beating on this board. . . .
[Correction: This time Will offered to beat his FACE.]
"deflower your chicadee" ???? ok, burn the guy's house to the ground if you must but i see no reason for avian abuse.
[LEAVE BIRDY ALONE!!!]
please video the chickadee bit. Inquiring minds want to know.
[benburch checks in.]
Holy sh*t, can someone please get WP some Tylenol?
[Tylenol the Bouncer.]
I do not believe this. What maniacs recommended this insane screed?
[Your fellow DUmmies.]
I know very well who the OP is. Which is why I'm not a member of his fawning fan club.
[The Will Pitt Fawning Fan Club is trying to get its membership back up, but this DUmmie ain't joinin'.]
Pitt, when you're on a bender like this I'd put nothing past you. I'm surprised you haven't started in with "sh*tdogs, f*ckwits and cretins" yet. Or have you forgotten about that?
[That was EARLY Peeved Sniper Pitt.]
When can we expect your "backstory" and apology of sorts?
[Cue "Self-Recanted Evening."]
Are you off your meds? Or drunk?
[He's William Pitt the Drunker.]
Hey, I post stupid shit when I'm drunk too, but d*mn. I think it's time to find a meeting.
[The only meeting Will wants to find is the Will Pitt Fawning Fan Club.]
Ahhh...the warm zephyrs of a Will Pitt Rant... Wafting over this forum.
[Like the breeze coming in off a landfill. . . .]
YOU SPEAK MY LANGUAGE, WILL PITT!!!!!!
[YOU MAKE MY CAPS LOCK!!!!!!]
I'd say about three sentences into your "discussion" you stopped posting and started performing.
[I'd say first sentence.]
if there's anything more laughable than the bad writing it's the part about physical violence. If you've ever seen the guy behind those words, you know how funny it is.
[Are you implying Wee Willie could not back it up?! Have you SEEN him with a black cowboy hat on?!]
That was smoking hot stuff Will!! I think I love you.
[DUmmie shaniqua6392 loves it when Will talks tough.]
Sounds like you got your angry back.
[Last year Will had famously lost his Angry.]
William Rivers Pitt: an Oscar Wilde for this modern-day America!!!
[Will's Gone Wilde!]
LOL... Me thinks Will Pitt[iful] needs a straight jacket.
I'd bet their attitude on Buckley was no different than their attitude when President Reagan died.
The one redeming social value of Pitt's writing -- outside of making us laugh, of course -- is that it makes for great examples of how not to write. From his long-winded, bombastic pre-Fitzmas style to his present profanity infested rants, his "lather rinse repeat" catchphrase has appeared in so many of his posts that he's made it his own signature cliche. That and the annoying period thing he does form the fulcrum on which Pitt's pendulum swings.
If I know my Pitt rants, I'd say the ale dried up about an hour ago. He's currently polishing off the mouthwash and eying the vanilla extract.
Charles, Charles, Charles...how soon we forget the THIRD incarnation of StooPitt: Temporary Sockpuppet!
Where "someone", perfectly emulating StooPitt's bloviating writing style (no doubt someone from Obama's camp plagiarizing it), discusses alleged "chickadee deflowering" that may or may not have ocurred previously.
It's too hard for him to find an AA meeting in the morning when he's still sober.
My sleep schedule is almost normal again, and business is picking up so I need to keep more regular office hours.
That’s supposed to punish someone else?
Perhaps he's trying to be:
Watch out
You hear that crazy laughter
Run, DUmmies
He’s strange but not a stranger
He’s no or-di-na-ry guy
Pitt’s burning down your house!
Keep quiet wait till primary’s over
Hold tight were in for nasty writing
Will will surely find a way
To Burn on down your house
Don’t like Hill? Then pack your bags: time to drive off a bridge
The Terminator is here
Mad as hell and drunk with ego, Pittster knows where you live
Fightin fire with fire
All p*ssed
Ol’ will has finally found his Angry
Breakdown
Dreams fading in broad daylight
Twenty-four bus-iness hours
Burning down your house!
“DU was once upon a place sometimes I’d listen to myself
Was gonna come in first place
People that did never work used to live my pompous prose
Now it burst into flame”
“LOVE my pompous prose”
Arrgh.
Did he really call DU a godforsaken testicle kick? LOL
Some of the DUmmies posts are actually pretty funny.
Sir, I perceive that you are a Pittologist.
DUmfights?
He's probably already got a gay jacket.
Will Pitt hasn't slept since April of '05.
Everybody's talkin' 'bout me
I don't hear a word they're sayin'
Only the hands held on my ears
People mock and laughin'
I can't see their faces
'Specially in case I disappear
I'm goin' where I stand with Sheehan
In a roadside ditch
Goin' where the weather suits my clothes
Headin' off to my happy place
Even if in my mind
And skippin' over the dancepad in my home
TIME WITHOUT PITT
Tune: "Town without Pity" Original
When you're William Rivers Pitt--that's me
And bewildered by the posts I see
Why do you DUmmies hurt me so
Pretty soon you're gonna know
What a time without Pitt can do
If I say it's only Dems I back
People talk like I'm a party hack
It's not easy being Will
I'm dismissed as just a shill
So a time without Pitt is due
I have my problems, many problems
I need an understanding heart
Why don't they need me, beg-and-plead me
Before I take a granite cookie and depart
Take these fingertips and make me stay
I'm afraid I'll have to go away
How can you keep William Pitt
Now that Daily Kos is it
When these little minds tear me in two
Then a time without Pitt is due
How can you keep William Pitt
Now that Daily Kos is it
When these little minds tear me in two
Then a time without Pitt is due
No, it isn't very pretty
What a time without Pitt can do
SELF-RECANTED EVENING
Tune: "Some Enchanted Evening"
Self-recanted evening,
When you see the flip-flops,
You may see where Pitt stops
Across the DUmmieland.
And somehow you know,
You know even then,
That sometime you'll see him
Recant once again.
Self-aggrandized weaving,
Bloviating windbag,
Going where the wind blows,
Not knowing where to stand.
He'll write to the left--
That's left to go right--
Will's so busy dancing,
He can't sleep at night.
Who can explain Pitt?
Who can tell you why?
Will gives two versions,
Neither one can fly.
Some fantastic FReeping!
Someone may be laughing,
You may hear the laughing
Among the DUFU fans.
And night after night,
When we go to bed,
That sound is our laughter--
Will Pitt's in our thread!
Once we have DUFUed
Will Pitt's swing and miss,
Then he'll discover
He can't recant this!
He certainly has a gay hat already:
