The Incapacitation of Johnny Dickshot

John Cougar Lunchbucket

Weird... I couldn't write "death."

Instead of a custom designation for reaching 10 billion posts, I have decided to start over again under a new handle. Johnny Dickshot was a spur of the moment thing. For some reason I'd only just heard such a name ever existed, and while I was still laughing I had to sign up here and so that's what went into the field.

I've been waiting to retire him for around 4,000 posts.

Checking to see if this works...

I was just about to launch a new name. I hate you so much.

Considering Mets Guy In Michigan called himself "edgy" in his blog today, I'm thinking this name change thing is going around...

I have to say that John Cougar Lunchbucket is an inspired name.

I shall have to update the Who's Who thread.

Johnny Dickshot would be a certain first ballot selection for the CPF Hall of Fame, if such a thing existed.


edited to correct spelling of Johnny

It's the hair, man. I have edgy hair. But not necessarily Edgy hair.

I'm such a twat, I was wondering today where JD was, and Willets for that matter.

Great name Johnny.

Heh, I was wondering who pulled Johnny Lunchbucket out of the deep archives!

From the MOFO FAQ
Johnny Lunchbucket: A hypothetical, stereotyped Mets fan Ambler named the hardworking dupe that sweats for his wage, trades in the hardhat of the day for a soft Mets cap in the evening, and continues to pay whatever they charge for whatever product they put on the field. Meanwhile, the owners and management are up in the luxury box, clinking champagne glasses gloating that they have once again succeeded in deceiving Johnny Lunchbucket.


There is an essay somewhere in MBTN's archives where JD (or YGB back in those days) did through Johnny Lunchbucket's perspective.

So I guess we can change the rest of your family to the Lunchbuckets? I'm guessing Mrs. Lunchbucket would approve of this name more so than Dickshot! =;)

Alas, I can't really keep track any more, I thought you meant he changed his name

Benjamin Grimm

maybe he needs a Mets-break

Valadius

Maybe he's still too bummed out.

Edgy DC

He definitely left here bummed by the Mets and us.

But maybe he's feeling better. Maybe he's a Daddy.

cooby

When is he due? To be a daddy, I mean

Edgy DC

According to this, around the 24th.

I have it on good authority that Willets Point:

* felt bad about being such a dick on the CPF that he banned himself
* is still awaiting the birth of his child
* has a terrible head cold, so that when he's not unpacking boxes, he's usually napping

Well tell him to feel better and get his ass back in here.

Tell him being a dick is not a bannable offense ... thank god.
