The Cleveland Park Men’s Club is no more. I would like to take a good chunk of the credit for this victory, but it really could not have been done without your trolls, flames, and all-around stellar hating. The nonstop assault was incredible, and as I told Kathryn a week or two ago, “I’ve never seen anything like it.”
Let’s reminisce with a time line:
March 21: Adam asks me for a link via e-mail.
Hey, DCB, can I ask you for a favor? I’m looking to beef up my blog (http://clevelandparkmensclub.blogspot.com) I just started it for my buddies and I, a bunch of rat packer types in Cleveland Park. Can I link up w/ your site? If you like what you see, maybe I can be on yours?
Thanks, man. Hope to run into guys at some point. Seems like there is never a lack of a good time. Keep me in the loop.
I gave him a link because he didn’t mind getting his nose a little brown for me.
May 20: I throw the Haters Happy Hour, a blog wankfest that has the CPMC and KAC as special guests. Up to this point I haven’t met Adam, but he has been nice in e-mails. After meeting Adam, I felt that his online and private persona’s were not congruent. The seed of doubt was planted. The irony of my early actions, of giving Adam and his site a lot of attention, is that I helped propel him to a level of fame that made his downfall so much more spectacular.
June 23: I published a scathing rebuke of El Greco’s ridiculous post on dating. I started believing that Adam was a phony.
August 18: As I’m keeping an eye on the Senator trolls posting here, Adam decides to publicly state his displeasure in this post:
DCB?this is the real me.
I am no longer commenting on your site. (For the readers out there, I have not been making those comments. There is no real way to make you believe that this is the real me, but it is.)
I just emailed you. I hope we can clear this up.
Thanks?
The e-mail:
Just wanted to shoot you a quick email and say that it is not me making those dumb comments on your site. Someone has been posting as “The Senator” for a few days now. I didn’t find out until this morning.
Anyway, if you have any idea who it might be, I’d like them to stop. Otherwise, whatever, I’ll just have to play the passive aggressive blogging game.
I found it humorous that he was so worried about his public image. Adam’s reaction to the continued trolling in the days ahead revealed him to be petty. I removed his link and started to think about writing a massive hater post against the CPMC.
September 13 & 14:
. 13: Adam loses it and has a temper tantrum. In one day he is de-linked by several DC blogs.
. 14: DCB makes a critical post about Adam that gets picked up by DCist. Adam responds by posting Michael Jackson song lyrics and a picture of DCB.
Source: CPMC Wiki
You’ll notice in the dates that I waited a month until posting the CPMC attack. The reason was because I wanted to post it only after blog readers knew Adam was a joke - through witness of the douchery of his actions - and not necessarily because of what I say. I posted only after Adam weakened himself through idiotic public comments; I wanted to state things that readers already felt were true.
I implore you to please shut down your page before you become a laughing stock. You?re not far from it as it is. No one takes you seriously anymore, and you won?t make much money if your page eventually reaches your ultimate life dream goal.
DCist, a site I have criticized numerous times, links to my post (Martin Austermuhle must be a secret CPMC hater). For Adam this must have been a public relations disaster, especially since it was read over 2,000 times. To Adam’s credit, he would not give up, continuing to post inane drivel about cigars and fancy pants. It was almost as of Adam was helping out the trolls by giving them excellent hater material just to keep the dying CPMC in the “spotlight”.
I can’t say that my hands are totally clean (I have made contributions to the wiki), but the movement to destroy the CPMC involved a core group of - by my prediction - at least a dozen characters. The dedication to destroy Adam rivals that of a male teenager trying to lose his virginity. And it worked.
Adam is probably preparing for an onslaught of anonymous trolling in the weeks ahead. He’ll be back, forced by his attention whoring personality to give it another shot, but I’m sure the troll army will be ready. I conclude this remembrance post with a message to Adam, who I know is reading:
Dear Adam,
I’ve never seen anyone get bitched on the internet like you did.
DCB
P.S. You’re a horrible speller.

Everyone deserves a cheaply-made “Blogger of the Month” plaque. Quality is job #1.
I’d like to thank Movabletype, Word Press, my homie God - much love, my producers, my directors, the various DC bloggers I read and link to, wikispaces and all my fans - I couldn’t have done without you. Whatever I did, if anything.
And now we can sleep at night.
DCB I relize that I was a tool. You won, and yes I been bitched. You guys really fucked me over. Harder then my boyfriends.
This is all very sad and disturbing. Who gets custody of Mister Jinxy and Seenster?
Don’t fret. If you read you might have seen that I do the Swami Picks. Go see Saturday’s picks I went 14-4.
Sorry my mistake, missed your sarcasm, too busy trying to interpret your hankies. ;)http://www.gaycityusa.com/HANKYCODES.htm
I think those responsible should own up to it somehow, just to get an idea of where the muscle was coming from…
…I will miss the Chef’s recipes - maybe he can post on MPL
All roads lead to Mister Jinxy. For his sake I hope he has a good lawyer since Harriet Miers might be the deciding vote in The CPMC vs. The Blogjacker.
Wow CatCiao you must be really upset at your boys demise. LOL What a LOSER!!!
DCB, you know I love to hate you, but I must give credit where credit is due.
Cheers.
Not Mr. Jinxy.
Also, CatCiao, I regret to inform you that there was no blogjacking involved. Adam gave up the site, I noticed and moved in. If blogspot didn’t want me to do it they wouldn’t have let me. Open-and-shut.
:bow:
I followed a bit of the drama and am happy to see this outcome.
Nice job.
Such a shame, I really wanted to hate on them some more. BUT, I’m definitely happy with the outcome. I thought they grew stronger though? Also thought that all the hate they were getting was a laugh to them? LOL what a joke.
CPMC had become joke. Whatever ever happened to “Two Girls in DC” AKA “A Girl in DC”?
WOW. I am apparently VERY out of the loop. Interesting Monday morning reading …
I’m always happy to see a frat boy punished.
I’d also like to count myself a member of the “never seen anyone bitchslapped so bad by the internets before” group.
Didn’t we just read “behold, the power of the CPMC” last week? What about the poor lawyer in San Francisco? How is he going to cope?
CatCio,
I am not the CPGMC, nor am I the Generic Socialite.
I’m just me.
I don’t try to pretend to be something I’m not, which was the main problem a lot of us had with your crew.
DCB,
Excellent recap. I shot Gatorade out of my nose on the last line.
Cheers all around.
Now everybody repent for your sins and go out there and be better people.
“Two Girls in DC” sorta disappeared. I’m unaware of any explanation as to why, but one day they just were gone
Hey Catcio,
Seems like you?re the last man standing. You?re the only one crying and defending that idiot, whatever you trying to do is pathetic. Go crawl back wherever you came from and stop wining. Get some tissues and cry on your miserable shitty blog that nobody reads.
On behalf of Captain Furball’s former caretaker, bravo DCB, I’m not crazy about your blog but I’ve got to respect you for exposing the fraud that is “The Senator”. Cheers!
I will be looking into this CPMC flaming matter after the first of the year.
First of all, you all have NO CLASS. If any one person that posted crass comments about CPMC had half a brain they would realize that the Senator isn?t posting anything on this site anymore. Trust me he doesn?t have the time nor the patience for disturbing individuals such as yourselves. I understand that the only way half of you can say anything of this is behind your computer and would kiss the senators a$$ if you met him in person. Don?t hate the fact that he built something you could only dream of. Yes some things got away from the meaning of the site and some things might have been a little outrageous, but he took stand for what he though would be good humor and good fun. Granted this is all about free speech and some take it to the next level, but to sit here and bash someone because he didn?t invite you into his group of people, just ridiculous. Maybe jealousy…I?m sure most of you haters are not the coolest of people and have a hard time making friends. As for that…good luck, because in order to actually make friends you need to get off your a$$ and leave your computer to actually socialize. I guess one can only dream. Hope you all realize that you are the true losers. Get a life!
ok anonymous, which member of the CPMC are you? PUHLEEZ. Stop defending Adam.
I think I’ll manage. Time to stick more geographically desirable blogs….
My new favorite quote from all of this:
“he built something you could only dream of.”
“he took stand for what he though would be good humor and good fun.”
I guess somebody has to!
hey anonymous lol your a very funny person. You must be one of Adam’s fuck buddy
LOL Hey anonymous sounded like to me you compared The Senator to a hero of some sort. LOL LOL That was really funny. “Kissing his ASS if we met him in person.” LOL THAT WAS MORE HILARIOUS!
Whoever went on the big rant a few comments back is the same person who was flaming cpmc yesterday. They make all the same talking points. The haters have no class, adam’s too much of a “gentleman” to respond, and so on.
I think someone’s playing stand by your man, and that they’re using this as a kodak bonding moment. Of course, I think a lot of things, because I’m Marshall McLuhan.
my bad what did i miss, i stepped away to make friends for tomorrow’s drag show heel race err something…
“Don?t hate the fact that he built something you could only dream of.”
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Yes, anonymous (Florist), he “built” something…a blog? On blogspot? In other words, he signed up for a free service and cut-and-pasted his way to new heights of…mediocre blogdom? He BUILT that?
And as for us being “anonymous,” so is/was he. Using the name “Senator” or even “Adam” does not identification dislosure make. And DCB can PROVE that he didn’t even stick to that monitor: “Papa Troll,” “CPMC Ain’t So Bad,” “Sudamericana,” anyone?
The only thing he built was a reputation of hypocrisy and general douchery.
Your fuselage, and welcome to it, CPMC.
He had relatives who would occasionally pop onto CPMC and cheer him on, too. It could also be a sister. Or a gay lover, of course.
I just came back from San Francisco and I am astonished about all the feedback that I see. Well for the record my trip to San Francisco was great. I got to meet with all my fellow homosexuals and had a wonderful time. They gave me the San Francisco “treat” if you know what I mean. Now, I come back home and see all this rubbish about our page being down. The reason why I left was because I couldn?t handle the pressure. I was tired of crying and of all the verbal abuse I was receiving. So I ditched our site. Catcio I realize your mad at the world but don’t be. Just because I left to San Francisco you don’t have to lash out on everyone. I know you miss our anal sex together but I’m here know don’t fret. DCB won this so called “blog war” and I was a tool. Also, if you guys who are worried about the Swami Picks DON’T WORRY, click to Catcio’s site for it. It should be great!!
At the next hater/dweeb/ugly bitches happy hour I will come and kick your ass, then buy you a drink.
DCB,
We as a group (CPMC) are still going strong. Friends are friends. I had the pleasure of meeting you (briefly) a few weeks ago and you seemed like a nice enough guy. So no blood letting on my end. But, I want you know that “A” is my friend and someone that I/we stand behind.
Whatever your feelings towards him, it should be noted that we all (including yourself) make mistakes and “fools” of ourselves on occassion. That’s just life. You know that…come on. And for the record, the blog was NOT removed for the reasons you may think. I wish you all the best, its been fun and good luck to you. I look forward to reading your blog in the future, I’ve always enjoyed it. Regards, The Producer
PS - Wait nevermind Adam just made fun of my girlfriend. I HATE YOU ADAM!!!
Doode, get a life. Real cool/impressive that you “shut down” a blog. Parking cone -> up ass.
Lacrosse team we’ll kick your ass cause we’re the FOOTBALL TEAM!
Although I’ve read them occasionally, I’ve never really gotten into the whole consortium of DC blogs there are. Why did/does everyone hate the CPMC so much?
I’m still trying to figure out why CatCiao is calling people ugly or dweeby. He’s a graying, paunchy middle-aged dad hanging on to much-younger douchebag Adam, who tells others he likes CatCiao’s political connections most of all. Fucktard.
FLAMER: What a stupid thing you just posted on your website. This is a legitimate target of criticism, because it can be verified and is subject to public scrutiny.
CPMC: Oh yeah well your life sucks we hope! Also, get a life! We speculate that you are not as sexually active as Capo. How’s THAT for speculation?
FLAMER: Producer, today you say that you like DCB’s blog but yesterday you said that blogging is for kids in Jr. High. Why all of the mood swings? Are you ill?
CPMC: Dear Flamer,
Adam ran a really awful site for eight consecutive months and insulted and alienated a lot of people in the process but thats okay because everyone makes mistakes sometimes! Right? Appeal to our common humanity? In conclusion we will stand behind Adam long after he’s stolen all of our credit cards and pushed several women into the street because BROZ BEFORE HOZ!
Sincerest and warmest regards,
The Producer
ELDERLYMAN: Where am I? Where’s my viagra?
Lol Catcio know wants to fight. Thats cute. An old man wanna pick a fight with some nerds. I guess that makes him feel like a man LOL.
LOL King, I jest. I am a lover not a fighter. The worst I would do is hold you down and put Clearasil on your face and then buy you a Shirley Temple.
DCB, obviously some of your cronies don’t understand. You guys are acting very immature. I am going to tell you the MAIN REASON why “A” removed his site so we can put this all to rest and that we ALL CAN MOVE ON. The reason why is…………well I can’t really think of any reason. SAD SAD SAD I admit DCB I DO ADMIT, YES YOU DID WHIP ADAM AND EVERYONE ELSE DID TOO. HE CRIED AND CRIED. I TRIED TO COMFORT HIM. I even tried to give him foreplay. He is still affected by all of you giving him GRIEF!!!! PLEASE PPL STOP IT. I hate it when he cries it makes me want to cry too. But other then that I will stand by my man (if you know what I mean). Also, on another note any of you want the latest ?SWAMI PICKS? you can get it at Catcio?s site. OH YAH THAT SHOULD BE GREAT!!!!
Yah but I don’t even think you can hold me down. How bout I just HOLD YOU DOWN and put some wrinkle cream on your face.
Oh and I wouldn’t buy you a shirley temple I would just laugh at you for even saying that your a lover not a fighter.
DCB deletes comments that don’t praise how kewl he is for shutting down a blog. You Rock, dood. parking cone -> up a$$
This is quickly turning into a bad e-remake of West Side Story.
Snap! :gay:
We get to be The Sharks.
Lacrosse Team we don’t like your lip and the Rugby Team doesn’t either. Parking cone -> up urethra
Hey Football Team, isn’t Adam the one who always speaks with symbols instead of verbs? (Friday=Beacon Bar & Grill, parking cone -> up a$$)
That’s a good point, Rugby Team. Parking Meter -> down Lacrosse Team’s esophagus
Producer,
I don’t have beef with you personally, but I seriously don’t like your buddy adam. You are in a club where is a supposed leader, so it is hard for me be selective with my wrath. I hope you understand.
So now that your done saving us from evil bloggers, will you get back to being a DC Bachelor?
Wallowing in your perverted recollections of the truth DCB? You’ll never know the real truth, however, because you’re deaf, blind and ignorant when it comes to the details behind his decision to pull the plug. I happen to KNOW because I was there. As he pondered the lives of you worthless losers it became lucidly apparent that you don’t deserve the time of day any longer. He’s moving swiftly on with his life and future, which will no doubt be rich and meaningful. Yours on the other hand will continue to be full of quick wanks and worthy of nothing more than involuntary euthanasia. Au revoir, le putain de bordel.
No one cares D’esprit De Corps, the point was that his blog sucked and he was rude to people. If he is getting on with his life– best of luck.
Wow, it must have been just like the cuban missile crisis, what with all that pondering. Such an important decision. Here’s the thing, though: if we’re such “worthless losers,” why did he seek us out?
You complete cock JP - You know nothing of the details yet you continue bash blindly. Perhaps a circle-jerk with your loser buddies is in order, or even a game of soggy biscuits? Good luck with your wanky hankies.
RCR - believe me, nobody sought YOU out. Who in God’s name would want you?
Your boy the Senator. He’s the one who asked me for a link. He’s the one who threw a hissy fit when I shortened his link to the CPMC. God forbid I should use an acronym. Want me to post the emails? Douche.
You’re not worthy of an acronym - who the hell gives a damn about you? Your comments just illustrate the over-inflated, self assigned opinion you have of yourself. Sod off - Bag.
Actually, DDC, my comments illustrate the high opinion that your boy had assigned to me. I’ve never claimed to have a favorable opinion of myself. But you’re clearly retarded so I see this little exchange is going nowhere. As we say in America, fuck off.
Man. It’s pretty funny when Intorweb noobs try to flame.
CPMC apologistas: Keep spinning with this “wise gentleman solemly hangs up his spurs” meme all you want. The Senator was a fratty douche, the CPMC blog made you all look like fratty douches, and no one is sad to see you go.
And please! Enough with the “no one asked you” type comments. If you don’t want to hear people’s opinion, don’t post on their blogs, chief. Find some bland numbskull who cares deeply about your boring shit, and whine to them instead. Get in touch with the fact that we think you’re lame, that’s never going to change, and fucking go home. I know, shocking eh?
I’m practically in hysterics over here.
You all are a bunch of fucking tools.
I love it.
Is it just me, or does “D’esprit De Corps” know too much about activites involving semen?
That’s the impression I get.
“you?re deaf, blind and ignorant when it comes to the details behind his decision to pull the plug”
Deaf, blind, AND ignorant! D’esprit De Corps - what’s the difference between being deaf when it comes to the details, blind when it comes to the details, and ignorant when it comes to the details? Did he write the details on a piece of paper that DCB could have read if he were only deaf and ignorant? What if you were to write them in braille - could we learn the details THAT WAY?
“You?ll never know the real truth, however…As he pondered the lives of you worthless losers it became lucidly apparent that you don?t deserve the time of day any longer.”
Wait, did we just find out the truth? Did you tell us just there? You’re saying that the real truth is that he decided we didn’t deserve the time of day? Why are you saying one thing and then contradicting yourself? Are you just trying to be really melodramatic?
“He?s moving swiftly on with his life and future”
Are you implying that the CPMC was his life and future, from which he’s moving swiftly on? HA!
“Au revoir, le putain de bordel.”
Dude, your second year French would be more impressive if it weren’t so obviously “general insult!” Au revoir to you too! Je voudrais acheter une ceinture!
I ask you troll, was that English? “If it weren’t so obviously “general insult!” DUDE. Although, I admit, it was the perfect end to your string of drivel, perhaps you should master English before dabbling in French.
I’d consider that an adequate comeback if it actually had any reference to my comments. Tell me: which part didn’t strike you as English? Was it the part where I qualified the sentence subject with the adjectival noun phrase “general insult?” Which I enclosed in quotes, employing the literary device of “irony,” to draw attention to the fact that your “le putain de bordel” was just a generic French insult you picked up off of 101FrenchInsults.com?
Since you seem to understand Harlequin prose better, I’ll try again:
You’re deaf, blind and ignorant to le croissant! Tool.
Oh, and, Adam - weren’t you always the one who responded by calling me “troll?”
“I happen to KNOW because I was there.”
I bet you were, Adam. I bet you were.
“You?re not worthy of an acronym.”
This has to be among the best insults the CPMC “associates” have lobbed in this comment thread.
“You’re not worthy of an acronym”? Seriously? This is the best you can do? I’m sure RCR cried himself to sleep last night over that one.
Morning, Adam! We all know you’re reading, so just wanted to give you a shout-out. What color are your Cordarounds today? Probably beet red to match your face, if you even have the intelligence to be embarassed over this hilarious situation.
Oh wow… this was quite the morning read this morning…
Time to move on maybe?
(That’s not to say I wasn’t chuckling at some of this)
“Va te faire enculer” is the #1 French insult on insultmonger.com. Come on, Adam. Try harder.
Please someone be my friend this is bringing back horrible memories of high school.
The Senator aka “Papa Troll”, aka “CPMC ain’t so bad”, aka “Sudamericana” aka “Adam” still has a landing page…”The Gentlemen of the CPMC”. He’s like Paris Hilton or a bad case of toe fungus…he won’t go away.
He’s so self-absorbed and opportunistic…I’m sure we haven’t seen the last of him. Now can someone please make “Kathrynon” go away?
The CPMC were a bunch of losers who were in desperate need of friends. The Capitol Area Social Society was probably developed for the same reasons. Desperation. I think you should start tooling on that group now. I’m sure this society only has three people in it. A complete wanna be and poser. Get a life!
We are looking for a new person to hate on. If you know any fake bastards come to our blog and let us know.
i think you guys should hate on Catcio he seems like he has something up his ass.
[...] I suggest you quietly walk off into the Clearwater, Florida, sunset once again and stay gone. It’s the only honorable option you have. Otherwise, it won’t be just me enjoying watching you get so obviously spun up again. It’ll be like the public and humiliating bitch slap you got from all of us back in 2005 all over again. And I know you don’t want that, Adam. Or do you? Maybe you just like the attention. [...]
[...] Late Night Shots, the promotional arm of Smith Point, has a message board I read when I want to feel better about myself. On the surface it doesn’t look like these are the type of people I want to associate with, but I’ve been wrong before (once, actually). The bar seems like a place the CPMC guys went to before they discovered the existence of the cigar. [...]
[...] You made a wise choice when you shut down the first CPMC blog. That showed some maturity. I don’t know what compelled you to come back. Once again, your posts are vapid, egoistic, and boring. You are a shameless blowhard who lacks humility. Worse, you are pompous and uninteresting, and can’t write for jack shit. All of which make for a combination rife with potential for ridicule.I suggest you quietly walk off into the Clearwater, Florida, sunset once again and stay gone.
