Mike Valenti, Such A Tool

Post by SoupySez » Tue Jun 14, 2016 7:16 pm

And that's being kind, which is more than he ever is. Began his show today with the statement that anybody who is taking part in the visitation at JLA for Gordie Howe, has no business being there, unless they're related to the Howe family or had a close personal relationship with Gordie. If you're just a hockey or Wings fan, the only reason you're there is because you have nothing else going on in your life and you're a loser. He didn't call those people losers, but that was his reference. He also said it was the same thing with Muhammad Ali's funeral. To him, they're all just people who think that by taking part in this makes you part of their life. He said it's just plain ridiculous for anyone who was never part of Howe or Ali's life to insert themselves into it. They need to get a life. I guess Valenti lives in a different reality than the rest of us.

I might get beat up for this, but I agree with him. I'm not calling people that do it losers, but I absolutely cannot fathom why people would want to stand in line to see a dead body. If I go to a funeral or a viewing, I go for the family and friends, not to take a peek in a coffin after standing in line outside a sports arena. It's morbid.

While I personally wouldn't go to a public visitation like that its clearly "the norm" in this country. It happens often when some famous, popular person dies. Just because it ain't my thing doesn't mean I'm right and millions of others are wrong.

Mike Valenti is a narcissist. As such...
"People with narcissistic personality disorder are characterized by their persistent grandiosity, excessive need for admiration, and a disdain and lack of empathy for others. These individuals often display arrogance, a sense of superiority, and power-seeking behaviors. Narcissistic personality disorder is different from having a strong sense of self-confidence. This is because people with NPD typically value themselves over others to the extent that they disregard the feelings and wishes of others and expect to be treated as superior regardless of their actual status or achievements.[5][8] In addition, people with NPD may exhibit fragile egos, an inability to tolerate criticism, and a tendency to belittle others in an attempt to validate their own superiority."

Such services are for family and close friends. Only. Anyone else there is a weirdo at minimum, and, yes, maybe a loser.

And anyone actually rocked / upset by the death of a 90-year old former athlete who's a stranger to them has issues.

I suggest anyone who passes judgement or even gives thought to how others should react to the death of a public figure is the one with issues.

Yeah, there's no right, wrong, weird, abnormal, truth, etc. in the world. Everything is fine, and good, and healthy, and beautiful. All judgment is just backwards thinking and evil, right?

...Whatever helps you sleep, Sally.

I realize your just a troll but on the off chance you aren't then I guess "not very intelligent" or perhaps "just plain stupid" is the other option.
No other explanation for the leap you made from the topic of reacting to the death of a public figure to "no right, wrong, weird, abnormal, truth, etc. in the world."

Gordie Howe always made himself very available to the public and thousands of people had a chance to meet him over the years. If they felt a connection to him and wanted to say goodbye there is nothing wrong with that. Anybody that feels a need to judge people at a viewing or funeral is the loser. Valentis job is to be a prick and he is very good at it

About the only thing I DONT agree on with him is he is against Muslim Racial profiling etc. Im sorry, but if racial profiling helps keep our Country safe, then STFU AND GET OVER IT.
Muslim isnt a race genius

Look up controversial radio and find a pic of Valente, I think it might be done to fill empty air or to get responses. The lack of callers is evident as now they have turned their time slot into doing bit's that sound like the old Amos and Andy shows. When Valente isn't going after anything about U of M he's taking contrary point's just to to start a conversation.
Sad radio.

Yeah, I know, anyone with enlightened wisdom who calls-out weirdos and puts them in their place is, of course, a "troll".

No shit. Maybe someone should inform the Muslims who constantly cry and whine about "racial profiling" that term comes right out of their own mouth. Google the many stories about these crybabies accusing TSA etc.

Frankly, I don't give a rats ass about the specifics of Muslims and Islam. The only thing that matters is THEY are the terrorists, cannot be trusted and need to be bombed off the face of the earth.

But I'm sure the pussy Liberals wouldn't want to do that. The Libs would rather sit down with the terrorists and discuss their feelings....if we show them love, kindness and compassion, it will solve everything.
So you are for killing every muslim on earth?
