Thoughts on stuff from a nerd’s perspective…
1 Jun
I don’t typically regurgitate things you can Google, but I can’t help but voice an opinion on this one.
Everyone’s favorite mumbler, who has quite a repertoire of politically charged opinions posted around the interwebz, has gotten himself into a pinch…again.
Let me be clear:
You have to be a huge idiot if you are a half-Korean, half-Jewish dude and get called out as a racist, not to mention actually plead guilty to a hate crime.
As someone who went to College with Marcus, or Waucus, I can vouch for the fact that the internet is a great hiding place for him. It is easy to publish articles and even sound semi-intelligent in an attempt to make people think you are somewhat normal.
Let’s review:
If anyone who reads his articles actually met him, he would lose all his credibility.
Needless to say, good for him for pursuing what he enjoys. I don’t want to totally hate on him. He’s doing his thing, even if I still think he’s an odd duck.
Hat tip to Ed for this article about how UVA Law apparently rescinded their acceptance to our friend Waucus.
And just so you know, we call him Waucus because that’s how he says it (he can’t pronounce his own name). I’m not making fun of him. That’s just the truth.
I remember when he was arrested for stealing Oreos from the local Wawa. Search (this site – pick Williamsburg court, for “Epstein, Marcus” (no quotes) and inactive cases. After breaking into a sorority house and being confronted by the police, he denied his act, while his face was covered in black and white crumbs.
I leave you with a quote from his supposed freshman roommate, found here:
This douche was my roommate freshman year at William and Mary. He seemed to be haunted by an air of ridiculous oftentimes malignant happenstance that now has clearly proven itself to be karma.

For at least the past year, if not longer, I’ve seen bumper stickers like the following:
I understand the liberal folks of America are angry about George Bush and his questionable decisions as president. I’m sure even Republicans feel let down. Many people will be happy next January 20th when President Bush finally leaves.
But, what if the man replacing him happens to be an old white dude?
Democrats talk a lot about how similar McCain is to Bush.
Obama ads cite that McCain voted with Bush 95% of the time. I’m not denying this claim. Although, according to our friends at factcheck.org:
Obama voted in line with fellow Senate Democrats 97 percent of the time in 2007 and 2005, and 96 percent of the time in 2006…
Seems like party lines are popular voting strategies.
At the Democratic National Convention, Senator Clinton said something along the lines of:
We don’t need four more years of the last four years…
Are Democrats saying McCain would be the third Bush in the White House?
If McCain wins, someone better register www.mccainslastday.com and start selling those lovely mousepads (a set of three for $21.95!)**.
All those hybrid owners can put the “McCain’s Last Day” bumper stick on top of the Bush version. Easy and convenient. They will be crying inside, but at least they will have their spite!
And just think how long their bitterness will be broadcast. Instead of just a year or two, all eight four years! Imagine the cry for “change” during the next democratic primary.
** Editor’s note: Sorry, these guys already own the domain if McCain wins.
