Is really starting to grow on me. I'm not a fan of his parking nonsense, his Devil's Weed scare nonsense or the Olympic fiasco, but he's hitting it out of the park this week.
Didn't laugh

Maybe it's just me, but that was far from funny.
Mahhhhty got his ass handed to him

Earlier in the day by Kirk Minihan on WEEI. I don't think he's going back on the radio any time soon. Excluding, of course, the echo chamber that is WGBH.
I thought he did ok for that platform....

The host microphones are louder than Walsh's but they were prepared to sandbag him and they did a little, but he gave it back to Kirk good when he said to calm down.
Marty did kind of sidetrack turn away from some of the questions but overall I thought I give him credit for going on that show.

wait a second.... WEEI? JOHN DENNIS!!!??
What an honor usually John Dennis rips the bottle from his lips so he can choke out a racial METCO joke into a live mic inbetween gulps. But today is different much different my friends. He must have a doctors note for that malformed paragraph he formulated. I miss it when he breathed desperately into a microphone and talked about how if he was big and strong he'd do good on all the sports teams And how we would all laugh at his terrible dad jokes and racist grampa jokes.
PS
I need a ride to the Howie Carr circle jerk. Curt Schilling bailed on me. He said something about a sock and then asked how to put Bible verses into world of war craft. I think that's what he said. He sounded horribly out of shape but I'm no doctor. No sir I only know two things in the world my underwear goes on the inside and my moms a good kisser
PPS
Really need a ride contact me asap.
WEEI Radio... thats funny.

Kirk Minihane is a slack-jawed, room-temperature-IQ, bigoted asshole with no real power or authority over anything. The idea that he could hand anyone's ass to them is laughable.
I'll admit it

Isn't the point of a Rickroll

Isn't the point of a Rickroll to fake someone out? It obviously didn't link to a calendar. In the various ways I've viewed to tweet the video is actually embedded. Fail.

Okay I'm really trying to help you out here. The Rick roll is much like THE GAME. Once you cognitively process those words you have been Rick rolled. Now if you don't know what THE GAME is you definitely don't know the rules of the Rick roll, how it works, or how to define it. You should probably just stick to duckrolls Padawan. Now if all of this still is lost on you that's okay too here's a helpful training video on memes:

Glad to see he thinks accountability is a joke. Carr's a huckster with a dated act, but he's still offering you a platform to defend your policies.
Vote Democrat again. Seriously, this schmuck rubs your nose in it, and you'll pull the lever for him again anyway. You can barely pay rent, there's an absolute chasm between the best school and the worst school, and you'll put him and his phony concern ilk right back into office.
Vote Democrat versus .. what?

Are you admitting you don't know anything about the Boston mayoral race? Democrat? There aren't any political parties listed for mayor.
The pedantry is thick this week

Sir, I'm well aware that city races are non-partisan. He's still a D, whether that's printed on the ballot or not.
P.S. I voted for you. You're welcome.

a "huckster" would offer a decent platform to honestly defend one's ideas?
A huckster who used the phrase "flop-house" to talk about immigrants in City Hall?
Come on.. And should he grant an interview to Alex Jones next?
Why not?
By Will LaTulippe

If you have any gift of gab, it should be easy enough to show up Carr and/or Alex Jones. Confront the heckler for me one time.

Yay Marty is finally catching up with 2006.

Next up, he might sign up for this new thing called Facebook because MySpace is getting annoying.
Well sure..

In 2006 the overpaid geniuses at City Hall were promoting Second Life. Today the city's social media manager is a well paid MM8 position.
At least Trump writes his own tweets, for the time being anyway.
It's a start

Yeah, well, the Trumpkins are working on taking us back to the 1930s, so you gotta start somewhere.

Bottom Line

Walsh appears to be afraid to defend his position in a non-supportive situation.
Good at deflecting? Sure.
Snarking and Joycey? Apparently.
But open to a debate with an equal? Absolutely not.
