The other day, the blogger over at Wall Street Cheat Sheet penned a column arguing that “according to transitive logic,” Jim Cramer would recommend selling your stock in The Street.com (TSCM), due to the fact that JC tells people to dump shares when executives leave companies suddenly or miss their filings. Both of these dealbreakers recently occurred at The Street, so the author argued that if one were a strict Cramer fundamentalist, there’d only be one thing left to do. He did not claim that JC had actually made this call himself, but rather used it as sort of WWJCD case study. You would think that Jimbo would a) realize this and b) be flattered that someone had not only bought his book but was following his teachings so closely and helping others to apply them in real time investing situations. But you’d think wrong! Uncle Jim fails to see the humor here and not only that but he wants the post removed, an apology, and honestly? A little class and civility up in this piece. Best line (especially picturing him writing it): “Think about how much better you are than that.”

While I understand your need to be “on the map,” and I understand the “public figure” exception to the libel laws, I do think that given your backgrounds and your histories, you are taking too much license with your Jim Cramer says Sell TheStreet.com. I believe that level of lack of responsibility is beneath you. So please take it down and apologize to me so we can move on. Fair? Think about it. Think about how much better you are than that? If you really need to sell subs just sell them, don’t trash me to do it. jjcramer
Jim is a friend-a-mine, and I warned him dat all-a-da-bloggers are hacks.

The CG thing ain’t tired, it’s hilarious.
And when 12 other dudes, in the time it takes me to type this, also break out their CG’s, it’s even more hilarious.

Cramer is such a tool. He’s the Billy Mays of finance. Maybe he should move to Oxy-Clean and Sham-wow.

@9 – Seriously, you suck. Seriously. Go over to Zerohedge with that shit, asshole.
decorum: something other people are supposed to employ, but I am excused from having.
fairness: I tried but couldn’t find this word.
I can make money selling subs? Where is my whip? Jim, you never told me…

Can some tough guy go over and bend crammer over and do him hard?
He would shut up after a good reaming session.
@11 – Nice response, that was pretty fetch.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Cramer, is that the cutting-edge psychological warfare you used @ Cramer-Berkowitz or while working in the trenches at GS? Sounds like someone just finished reading “Getting to Yes” and thinks they’re a zen master negotiator.
That is a piss-poor imitation of Gov. Patterson. Tasteless too.
@wtf are you are talking about?
I don’t understand why this scumbag likes to suck up to me.

Cramer is a scummy little sawed off shitheel. Not only that he’s friends with Al Roker. Scheeze, go wipe.
Trash him. Trash him HARD.
And Jim…
Keep F**king That Chicken!
I get that look when I’m working on the first BM the morning after.
