Support keeps rolling in folks.

Well, mostly support and a few people calling me a douche.

UPDATE: Cruft joins the fray, begging Tom to admit fault!

(Also, if you’re new here, you might want to start with Greatest Hits. If you don’t like those posts, then the terrorists have already won.)

Tom Green Hates Bloggers

Do you have a blog?

DO you update it yourself?

Do you update this blog using your home computer?

Well then Tom Green thinks you’re lame.

As astute EADC reader Murph pointed out, nested within Tom’s retort to my April post, Tom Green gave us all a little peek into just how he feels about us “non-celebrity bloggers.”

Makes you wonder, don’t it? Just what is behind Tom’s contempt of my lovely little blog? Does he hate me because I called him out, or is it the case that Tom Green thinks he’s better than all of us?

That’s ugly Tom. Really ugly. I honestly can’t figure out how people can support someone who obviously looks down on them.

So we don’t have all the bling-bling.

We don’t buy our Chihuahuas diamond collars.

I’ll tell you what we do have, Tom. We have heart. And we have honesty. And we have the spirit, the blood and the sweat of the working men and women who built this country into what it is today.

You can’t buy that Mr. Green. Not with your fancy money, or your star power, or your lush, bristly, well-groomed facial hair.

Although, I must say- if you’re paying someone to run that site of yours, you were robbed. But then again I’m just some lowly non-celebrity who uses his own computer to run a much better blog.

Tom Green Wants You To Have Sex With Me

…and he likes bears.

So people have been asking me about this feud between Tom and me. “What did he say?”

Well, I’d love to point you in the direciton of the video He made on friday, titled, “Ed You Bastard,” but he took that down. That was a pretty smart move on his part; he made so many mistakes on it he prooved my initial point ten-fold.

So before he removes the post where he made fun of me, I placed the post here, entitled, “You Know What, I Think We Need A Cause.” Here he pairs the equally importent fight to save Grizzly bears with the threat imposed by my post.

Now, I’m not one to throw a hissyfit over a few comments about me on the internet. That’s for A-list bloggers and C-List celebrities. It’s the emailing me near death threats- that was a campaign fomulated by one of his fans- on his website!

And what was Tom’s response to this email campaign? I Have absolutely no idea why, but he actualy makes some sick coorelation between bedding me and helping bears. You be the judge.

That is a sick man, ladies and gentlemen. A very sick man.

Fun With Tom Green Fans Volume 2 (or how to deal with trolls for fun and profit)

Oh man. This could very well be a case of the sequel being better than the first one.

So this represents the best of Tim Green’s fan base? So far they’ve wished me dead, wished my family members dead- but that is nothing compared to what they’ve done to civilized discourse. But fear not my friends, I didn’t shrink back. Below you will find some of the funniest, most horrible things I have said to anyone this week. Enjoy.

Warning: Naughty Words Ahead.

The first one is a second email from A. Reinhard, who I guess initiated this whole thing. From the look of it I’d say we’re cool now.

Amanda Reinhard
to me

What a pathetic excuse for a man you are. First of all using the word “kid” is vey presumptious on your end. I am 38 years old. I am very sure I made it clear in my previous post that YOU SUCK Sir, and I use that term in a very loose sense, not Tom. Apparently the only way you can feel good about yourself is by putting others down. I feel sorry for you and anyone who takes pleasure in reading your site. Do you not have anything worthwhile to say and do with your time in life? Cause this is SAD. So I will kindly request that YOU STOP SUCKING and find a worthwhile outlet for your energy. I will say a prayer for you and wish you luck in finding a better way in life.

Thank you for your time,
Amanda Reinhard

to Amanda

Mandi,

I bet Mr. Green is pretty flattered over your email campaign. Seriously. I bet he’s totally into 38 year old housewives.

And while appreciate your offer to pray for me- it may not be the best idea.

Chances are you get down on your knees and start thinking about me in all my studliness, and your mind’s bound to get filled with all kinds of naughtiness.

You could get struck down right then and there.

My advice- just stick to obsessing over big celebrities like Tim Green or whover he is.

Ed

This guy was brief, but still managed to give me something to work with.

John
to me

Never heard of you, good luck with that. No class is low class.

Ed Adkins
to John

Um. Actually no class would be no class. That’s less that low.

Se that?

No class = 0.
Low class > 0.

In the future this rhyme may help,

When I want to remember how much class is NO
I just rebemember little boys john buffam likes to bLOW.

See? That’s Easy, no?

Low?

The following one is one of my favorites, since I CONVERTED HIM! Take that Green! How many of my fans have you persuaded to join your rag tag team? Face!

aaron reinhard

Ed Adkins

aaron reinhard
to me

I’m sorry this post is so long but come on, how could I leave this one out?

Jake Snover
to me

i love it how u hate on tom green.. i noticed u have only 23000 hits on your website…thats funny bc tom gets half that many each day i also notice how u look and want to be like him, is it bc he had 2 shows on mtv and u didnt? i would like to talk to u on aim sometime so i can call u an asshole while u r reading please send someting back even if u r simply going to tell me to fuck off bc u have made a mortal enemy talking shit about a hero of mine

i could care less if u ate a shitty sandwhich and choked on the corn, burn in hell.

FUCK U ED!

Ed Adkins
to Jake

Jake,

I admire your culinary creativity!

Culinary means “of or relating to a kitchen or to cookery”. That’s in reference to your “shitty sandwich” comment.

Reference means “Significance in a specified context”

Signifigance means “A meaning that is expressed.”

While I always enjoy hearing from my fans, I must say It’s a special treat when I hear from someone like you, for whom English is their second or even third language.

My Instant message address is sarcasomatic. I’m sure I’ll find what you have to say informative, as well as intellectually stimulating,

Your American Friend,

Ed Adkins

I think I just may write a book on proper troll maintenance.

dear TG fans

while you’re sending me hate mail from your parents basement, i’m enjoying tasty pho. Have fun imagining what it’s like to interact with the opposite sex.
