Tucker Carlson Gets Blogger Fired, Rents "Crash"
Fun Fact: If you blog about how Tucker Carlson opened an account at the video store you work at, he will get you fired.
As Wonkette readers know, Tucker Carlson has been Googling himself a lot recently. And, unsurprisingly, he’s not happy with most of the results. We regret that we’ve received only terse, incomprehensible emails, and haven’t had awesome face-to-face exchanges with him like this:
Tucker: If you keep this shit up, I will fucking destroy you.
The Genius (Me): Whoah, perhaps you would like to take this outside where you can continue threatening me without disturbing the other customers.
Tucker: Looks out the window, then back at me I am not threatening you.
The Genius: You just said you would fucking destroy me.
Tucker: No, I didn’t.
Did this actually happen? The fired blogger mentions that Tucker looks much more “tan” (orange) in real life than on TV, which we noted too. And a guy who just learned to Google himself last month probably hasn’t signed up for Netflix yet. So yes, it’s probably all true. And we’re shocked — shocked! — that a cable tv pundit is kind of a dick.

you want to know what the whole post said that got tucker riled up?
Tucker Carlson opened an account last night at my video store. I thought the name seemed familiar but I couldn't figure out why. It was after he left that I realized he was on the list of Gigantic Cobagz.
I could tell you what he and his ridiculously wasped-out female companion (wife?) rented if you really want to know. I won't tell you where he lives, though. That would be wrong and stupid. I will also not be running around ordering 10,000 copies of America: The Book and having it sent to his place even if that would be more awesome than frozen urine treats for his home.
He said he would give it out. As far as I know, he never did and he even took the post down when Tucker Carlson came and started threatnening to destroy him.
For doing that, Tucker then starts talking to the video store and gets him fired. That seems like a little bit of over-reaction to me.
