Karl Denninger Angered, Bans Everyone Hothead blogger Karl Denninger of Niceville, Florida, also known as Genesis, went on an angry, profanity laced tirade today, banning every member of his popular The Market Ticker website, and even someone who does not belong to the site. The outburst was prompted by a contributor to the site who challenged Denninger’s thesis that gold is not an appropriate investment in the current economic environment. “Yeah, I mean, all I said was that I thought he was wrong about gold, that ya know, it might be good to have some,” said the poster, known as ‘SBug’. “And he went totally off, and banned me from the site, like, forever. It’s not cool.” But apparently that wasn’t enough to quell the wrath of Mr. Denninger, who then went on to ban every single poster to the forum, before posting a cryptic message on his website. The message, which has since been removed, read: “Jesus, when does the idiocy stop? I am sick and tired of people asking the same dumb questions and bringing up the same moronic points. I do not like gold, ok? Got it? Good. It’s a useless hunk of metal and owning it is how you destroy your personal wealth.” Later, Denninger was spotted at a local supermarket, where he was overheard banning a checkout clerk. The clerk, Sven Lundegaard, 36, claims he has never heard of The Market Ticker and doesn’t know Denninger. “I was scanning his items, and I asked him if he had a club card, and he freaked out and said I was banned. And I’m like, banned? Banned from what? The supermarket? But he didn’t answer and left the store quickly.” No word yet on whether Denninger has banned any other non-members of his website. Calls and emails to his office have so far been unanswered.

Never heard of him, don't care what he thinks about anything.

He's had some good insights into the financial collapse over the years.

I would have to agree on that one. exactly!
I think Congressmen should wear uniforms like NASCAR drivers so we could identify their corporate sponsors.
I dunno, I'm thinkin' there's an ever-so-slight possibility this might be satire. I only posted it in hopes of Chrissy taking the hint. I think banning everybody would be a stroke of genius. Don't ask why, I'm just funny that way.
Don't ask why, I'm just funny that way. BANNED!! Oh, wait, I'm not a mod..... :p
