I've referred to him as Dicky Bird before. I took it from the song Tit-Willow in The Mikado.
On a tree by a river a little tom-tit Sang "Willow, titwillow, titwillow" And I said to him, "Dicky-bird, why do you sit Singing 'Willow, titwillow, titwillow'" "Is it weakness of intellect, birdie?" I cried "Or a rather tough worm in your little inside" With a shake of his poor little head, he replied "Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow!"
In theory, a true WASP writing about his school, friends, occupation, neighborhood, family would have been insightful. But Richard is a joke of a hick who doesn't have a clue.
As a Commenter pointed out, Richard believes that anyone can be a WASP if they follow Richard's "formula." Richard's formula is nothing more than vulgar clothing, bad grammar, public school education, self-promotion, lack of self-awareness, lack of sophistication, lack of sense of history, lack of reasoning skills and much, much more.
If his blog was simply about himself rather than trying to include himself in a class in which he clearly does not belong, he would not have had nearly as much criticism as he has had.
The "Dickie Bird" is a good one that has been used time
ReplyDeleteand again in past comments. A "rare" species indeed.

Tricky Dick, ala Mr. Nixon.
ReplyDeleteMight not be a need for a nickname. Looks like he might have closed shop...again.

Good riddance.
