Okay so yesterday I ripped The Dirty to shreds for taking photos from our site and slapping their logo on it. Naturally some dude named "Get Rad" (AKA Havooka) sent me a nasty email and we had a solid little exchage. So to help pass the time on a Friday afternoon here it is. You pick the winner. I will give this guy some credit. Douche Tard isn't a bad name. And just for comparisson size The Dirty is a big website. Almost identical traffic numbers to the Stool.

Whom it may concern,

My name is Get Rad! You can just call me the guy that gets laid a lot more than you ever will. I work for TheDirty.com and wanted to reply to your post about us today. First off let me say your site is for the gays and I got bored with in the first 3 seconds of reading it. Secondly all of our photos are user submitted and we get some douche who owns a lame site like yours emailing us every week saying “you stole my pictures”. Usually we don’t respond because we are better than everyone else and we know it but today I am hung over and in a bad mood so you get the pleasure of us acknowledging your pathetic existence. If you think we have the time to search the internet for pictures than you are high and I would like your drug dealers number because whatever you are getting is better than what I have. I attached a picture of myself to save you the time of searching the internet looking for one so you can shred me because we both know that what you’re going to do as soon as you finish reading this email…..fuck you very much

Love you… Mean it

Is this you Hashoom?    It can't be the guy in the picture.  Nobody would be that dumb to really send that shit.   Keep driving into telephone poles and screaming like a bitch when you get a breathalyzer bro....

Ok I know this is really hard to comprehend but we don’t search the internet for pictures. People submit through our site which is all automated so we have no clue if they have been used elsewhere. If you are not afraid of me then include your contact info and agree to a fight. We will stream it live from both site it will be awesome.

Love you mean it

Ohh...Your readers send you stuff?   I've never heard of that before?    It sounds magical.   That's obviously where I got confused.   My bad.   I'm going to have look into this reader email stuff.    So basically whenever "a reader" sends you something through this "reader email contraption" it automatically becomes yours and you get to act like you own it?    Sounds wonderful.    I got to get this "reader email" thing on Barstool ASAP.       

Now as far as your offer to fight me in the Octagon in a death match I think I'm going to have to pass.   I suck at fighting and I'm real out of shape anyway.  Plus you looked pretty tough in that mug shot.   If you want to play like a sport or something I can do that though.    And as far as my contact info you can look it up since we actually don't hide our identities like you guys do.   I don't need to get arrested for you to know my name is Dave Portnoy.  

PS - Apparently unlike you I really am pretty busy so unless you plan on flying down here for a HR derby or for Brownies Beer Die this is it.  So take it easy Havrooom and thanks for the tip on reader email....

So there you have it. I think it was a good clean fight. Vote 1 for Get Rad kicked my ass and 10 for the "it seems like the I always win because I do"
