Final Update on 5/25: The Apology.
…and then we came to the end:
The only reason I ever put the original exchange up between George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina and Sandra Fluke was to illustrate the type of shit that was still being flung at Ms. Fluke (courtesy of Rush Limbaugh) and to show how incredibly gracious and patient she was in responding to it. The “take it off google” new internet tradition was just gravy on the biscuit, as they probably say down in Greenville South Carolina where George Tierney lives. Or so I have heard.
Having said that, the only person who came off smelling like a rose was Sandra Fluke while the rest of us got more than a little dirty. I don’t know about you, but I feel like I need to take a shower.
If there is a lesson to be taken away from this, other than “Oh really? Things I put on an unprotected Twitter account can be read by everyone? For reals?“, it is that “fuckchop” is both an awesome and potentially useful term, and for that we thank you, George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina.
Also. Too. We hardly knew ye…
(Update): He’s back.
Okay. Now I’m done with him. Either he’s a pathological attention whore or he’s one of those southerners who thinks the Civil War ended in a tie. Most likely both….

I hope it’s all preserved on Google cache, or the Wayback Machine.
The “take it off google” new internet tradition was just gravy on the biscuit
I think Mitt Romney would prefer to call it Cheesy Grits.
(EPU’d – reposting here)
You know, call me a bleeding-heart liberal, but I am beginning to feel sorry for poor George Tierney of Greeneville SC and wonder if I am engaging in Internet bullying. Not that he isn’t a bully and a blowhard himself, and he definitely started it, and we are defending a lady (who doesn’t actually seem to need much, v capable), but that he is so clearly outclassed and has lost. Maybe we should stop. Unless, of course, he says anything else, ever.
OTOH, perhaps someone else needs attention. What think you, Mr Bogg? Unleash minions?
This page…does not…exist? Then it was all a dream…a terrible dream in which a discourteous dolt hurled foul-mouthed insults at strangers and whined about the responses. Here in the real world, people are kind and considerate, even while differing in their opinions from time to time. Men and women alike are treated with the respect that every human should have. And people are basically good. (Disney cartoon bluebirds tweet in the perfect and beautiful trees)
George Tierney (Jr.) just sorta amazes me.
Where the hell does all that anger at people you’ve never met come from? Really.
Heart attack waiting to happen.
Sandra Fluke has repeatedly demonstrated that she is a classy, whip-smart woman who deserves our respect.
I, on the other hand, am a foul-mouthed asshole who has no qualms about letting a fumbledicked cocknozzle know just how utterly fucking stupid he is. Repeatedly. And George Tierney jr. of Greenville, South Carolina is about as fumbledicked as a fumbledick can get.
Long Live the Magi Google, George Tierney jr. of Greenville, south Carolina!
Clenching my teeth and doing my best Peter Brady: “Fuckchops and applesauce…”
The red-faced, rage-filled George Tierney of Greeneville, SC, could be Andrew Breitbart of the East Coast.
I mean, before Breitbart became a Brentwood, CA, speedbump.
Here’s something else I bet they say down in Greenville: That poor boy is a coupla biscuits shy of a full Sunday dinner.
So, take your shower, pet those doggiez, and sleep the sleep of the just.
Mr. Tierney of Greenville has learned an important lesson. I hope he recognizes it.
On edit: I hadn’t seen the previous post…I would have expressed myself in stronger terms. This guy eminently deserved everything he got, and that was way more than he got here…I saw an awful lot of references to our host’s first post, usually with high compliments for him and ingenious insults for the post’s subject.
You might not be able to visit with George Tierney jr. of Greenville, South Carolina on Twitter anymore, but you can always go to FaceBook and ask to be his friend.

I’m sure it’s just an oversight,or maybe he’s just very busy right now with his backswing, but I haven’t been friended back by him yet.
It does seem strange. On the other hand, I do love certain people I’ve never met; Sandra Fluke for example.
“EPU’d”
Wow. Talk about the wayback machine…that goes back to Christy Hardin Smith days.
Whom, by the way, I really miss.
Nothing seems to last, these days. sigh.
Quitter!
Maybe Tierney can get Jabba the Ailes to give him a Fake Reality TV show. Could be entitled How Nasty-Wasty Pussy-Cunt Libruls Whupped My Southern-Fried Jerk-Ass… or something.
Ah, we’re in luck! It appears that Georgie’s twats are back in (serius) bizness! Probably temporarily offline due to what I used to call the Slashdot effect (alternately known, depending on one’s political leanings, as an Instalanche, or now Tboggle!)
He’s baaaaaaaaack.
He definitely looks different without the mustache, mullet and do-rag
See what he did there? He misspelled your name as “tblogg.”
He SO nailed your ass. You better watch out at recess, TBogg!
He is indeed back, with a new hit.
The tea party is a non partisan phenomenon. Newt Gingrich said so at the first NYC tea party years back on tax day, so there.
Ha! That picture was actually mine! Don’t try to steal my one moment of internet glory, Tblogg! I NEED THIS MAN I NEED THIS
Today my daughter’s ball got stuck on the roof, and I heard her say “George Tierney, Jr., of Greenville South Carolina!” Of course I washed her damn mouth out with soap.
Have you discussed this with the DOGS?
There’s a sidebar on the Twitter page of three people who are allegedly “similar to george tierney” [jr, of greenville, south carolina -ed]. They should SO sue for that!
Looks like he said something. Game on!
Just had a horrible thought — what if this man has daughters? That would be v sad for them, I think.
May George Tierney, Jr., of Greenville South Carolina never EVER leave the internet.
Do let us know when you hear from the man’s lawyer, will you?
Went to do my google click. Reporting that George Tierney jr Greeneville South Carolina is in play, current # 1 ranking is Balloon Juice. Perhaps a small wager?
Took me a few minutes to realize where the spelling of “independent” came from. Good work today!
His father and other family members have nothing to do with this?
HIs father raised a son who calls women “sluts” and “cunts” for saying things he doesn’t like, and refers to their mouths as “dick suckers.”
His father raised a son who calls the President of the United States a “nigger.”
Someone tell me why his father is irrelevant to his opinions but Bill Ayers is an integral part of Barack Obama’s opinions?
If you look carefully you’ll notice the contact email addy … tblogg … that’s what out MENSA candidate was referring to.
A sculptor is only as good as his tools – and George Tierney, Jr., of Greenville South Carolina is a FANTASTIC tool.
Fixed.
Because I don’t need another g-damn lawsuit.
I’m afraid I succumbed to my inner demons and posted a comment on his FB account. Nothing rude, just a big congratulations on his new fame, with some specifics on his choice of vocabulary.
HIS TWITTER IS LIVE AGAIN AND BLOWING UP. HE’S REACTIVATED IT!!!!
See – prayers do get answered! Off to watch this blow up in real time….
ZOMBIE!!
Yeah! Suck on THAT, Tblogg!
It’s fixin’ to be hammertime up in this bitch!
Jeebus H. Cheeerist.
I often wondered whether anyone out there was actually dumb enough to believe the Obama is a socialist bullshit.
I now have to wonder no longer.
My Dog I have to wonder how he manages to dress himself.
Pardon me, I just wandered in from a remote location in the Australian outback. Who is this George Tierney of Greenville, South Carolina, you good folks are talking about? I must admit that until recently, I had never heard of George Tierney of Greenville, South Carolina, and can only conclude from all the attention he’s getting that George Tierney of Greenville, South Carolina must be a very important person indeed!
Tblogg?
I wonder if George Tierney of Greenville, South Carolina has ever tried to tblow himself.
“Say, whose that beggar man over there?”
“The guy in the dirty clothes carrying that putter?”
“Yea, what a slob! I can smell him from here…”
“Oh you don’t know?! (whispering) That poor feller was…tboggled”
“No!”
“Yes, it’s true. Lives on a grate outside the Country Club. Never was the same…”
But he’s happy to bitch about the excessive number of ads run on NBC’s golf coverage.
Truly, he is the Jim Hoft of the TwitterTwat.
He scrubbed the feed of the comments he made to Fluke that created his google problem…I guess that’s step 1, with step 2 of his plan being to unleash his corps of high-powered attorneys to harass and harry TBogg, driftglass, Balloon Juice, raw story, and the various and sundry internet establishments who screencapped the now-deleted originals and preserved them for posterity. Step 3, as he’s already pointed out to Jane, is “profit.”
The beauty here is that a google search for “George Tierney Greenville SC,” will continue to lead the googler to the places where this new interet tradition has been preserved. As will a google search for “George Tierney cunt.”

Teh Google! It burns, it burns!!!!!
Two words, Georgie Porgie: sun block.
Or on second thought, never mind — who the fuck cares if you give yourself a malignant melanoma because you think sun protection is a conspiracy of the “nanny state.”
The revived twitter feed is comedy gold.
I guess if you can’t make it on the PGA tour, the next best thing is PGA Tourettes.
What does “HAMMERS ASSES” mean?
Either he abuses animals or that’s his term for having sex.
I particularly enjoyed his Oct 26th 2009 status update:
Apparently Tierney’s mama is upset with sonny-boy for this dust-up, and, in particular, his language (little late for that, mom – eh?). But Tierney claims his mom “knows him,” and “knows” that he only uses such language when “it’s deserved.” So there!
Still loud and proud about calling most women cunts cuz they just ARE, you know?
Same with calling Obama the “N” word because he just IS, you know?
Wouldn’t use that “language” if it didn’t apply.
Again: Exhibit A of today’s modern white entitled victimized bullying rightwing typical male. A bigoted, sexist, homophobic moron, who believes he’s entitled to spew bullying hatred at all times because “that’s just the way it is.” But woe betide anyone who calls him on his stuff! Because that’s just the way it IS, you know?
A clue to his anger management issues: the number of whites in the USA are declining (per Tierney). Of course in Tierney-world that means, ipso facto, that ALL minorities are illegal and should be kicked out, starting with Obama, who is “clearly illegal.”
And so there you have it.
I think in Tierney-world, that phrase is seen as kwite kewl and manly as all shit.
Like you I was struck by Sonny’s repeated entreaties to “leave my folks out of this”, and I take this to mean that some phone calls were made to the George Tierney Sr household, probably with some nasty words for whoever was unlucky enough to pick up the phone.
On the one hand I’m inclined to deplore this sort of stuff, but on the other, it does allow George Jr to experience a small fraction of the deeply felt sense of indignation that accompanies seeing someone you respect and admire be needlessly and vulgarly insulted to no real purpose by a flannel-mouthed fathead.
Sandra Fluke has done nothing to George Tierney Jr, and he should have apologized immediately. In not doing so, and in his comments to follow he shames not only himself but his entire family, and his refusal to man up and do the right thing is an insult to his family as well.
Something to think about next time you kiss your Momma with that mouth, Sonny.
Geez, George Tierney of Greenville SC just can’t stop digging.
Oh, George I could wish you’d learn from all this, but that would require some level of introspection and a bit of humility. Both of which seem to have been on back order a very long time.
Quit, George. Before you blow a ventricle.
On the other hand. Calling out bullies is a noble profession. Thank you, tbogg.
Who says he wears clothes? After all he follows:
and
and a bunch of others (though he did clean up his following list last night)….
Heh! I’ve been tweeting him praise for a few days but getting no response.
Fuck Chops. Bitchez. Get some.
Are there any Twitter hash tags just for George Tierney jr. of Greenville, South Carolina? If not, are there any appropriate ones to use? just wondering.
Yes, and he’s winning!
#fuckchops?
#hammersasses?
If the prize was “dick cheese,” I don’t think I’d bother entering the contest/competition.
Dude must really, really like dick cheese to be that pumped about winning it.
Am I the only person who is reading that last word as ‘in the rectum’?
The one in which TBogg is a
former cowboygirl:Link won’t set for above quote for whatever reason but TBogg’s twitter-twat will:
When he’s not sending stage 4 cancer into remission using only his Google skills and getting kudos from trained oncologists who lack his mad cancer-fighting abilities, George Tierney JR posts 20 billion tweets in a day like this:
women deserve respect get a life fluke had an agenda so i called her a c**t and it went viral…big deal.
Can I get a LOL?
p.s. After I poked fun at him for making that claim about the cancer/remission/saving, he pulled the tweet.
Looks like George has ressurected himself with a fresh twitter page.
I think you may have a point, given what George Tierney Jr of Greenville South Carolina just said: “ah hell my parents have heard me say worse…they get pissed, but im me, not them”
Nobody who enjoys good emotional health behaves like this man. Even if he is trolling, it has gone too far for mental stability to be believably claimed. It’s concerning and, I think, an intervention might be in order. If his father has been brought into this unwittingly, as he claims, I hope his family — who allegedly “get pissed” at his behavior — are giving this situation some serious thought.
Okay, yeah… after reading through his Twitter history and seeing his numerous references to being “famous,” “major league,” the person who alerted the entire media establishment about things, and knowing several cures for cancer, I think we’re dealing with someone who has serious mental problems and should probably be left alone. He even claimed he is “winning,” although I don’t think there’s any contest or sport going on right now. He does, though. This is Charlie Sheen levels of problematic.
Oh my stars. George Tierney has disappeared under a total pile of freaking blogs about George Tierney and his bad mouth and other stuff like that, too. Also.
Bless his heart. Really.
He Tierneyd hisself.
I knew it was too good to be true. George Tierney jr of Greenville, South Carolina has once more evaporated from the Twitterverse.
Now I want to know about this new word “fuckchops”. It sounds like something Christopher Moore (of “fucksocks” fame) would use to describe…hmmm…better stop here.
O God. I read the whole thing. Look, if this is fiction, it ain’t funny. I don’t know if it’s possible to tell any more, so I’ll just say:
If it is not, I’m a bit stunned, and I should have recognized it sooner. This is Toxic Wingnut Syndrome, which strikes both sides of the political spectrum, and under which the sufferer abandons life-sustaining functions like food in favor of Wingnut radio and websites which support previously formed prejudices and substitute fear and loathing for sustenance.
They’ll tell you later, in hospital, how they “forgot to eat”.
The disease took my girlfriend’s mother a couple years back, and I regret that we didn’t do more to make her shut off the damn radio and come outta the goddamn house from time to time.
I’d suspect that Junior is currently on the underweight side.
I’m kind of in shock right now, I actually have a mutual friend with George Tierney jr of Greenville, South Carolina on Facebook. Not sure what to do about it either.
Astonishing — I just checked my Twitter account, and the tweet I sent out about George Tierney of Greenville, South Carolina (an epithet destined to take its place alongside “the wine-dark sea” and “the rosy-fingered dawn”), linking to tbogg’s original thread, has now been retweeted by 29 people with a total of almost 5500 followers. I’ve never had that kind of action from a tweet.
As a substitute for, say, “darlin” “honeybunch”, or even “poopsie” (I think that’s what Zelda Gilroy called Dobie Gillis), “fuckchop” falls a little short, I think.
Tried it out last night when my girlfriend met me after work at the bar:
“Hey darlin” she said. “yo, fuckchop” I cheerfully replied and she punched me in the nose as hard as she could. O man, there’s blood all over my shirt, was it something I said?
Nah, that’s just what happens when you have a girlfriend who works in a bar.
