Its sad but common place in America to see this kind of writing from an adult. I see minor examples at my corporate job. I had a manager in the past who would say things like "Thats not we problem, thats she problem" or "I no concern".
My favorite part from Art was how he spelled beyond our control :rockin:

i had a former co-worker who had frequent mis-spellings. my favorite was about how they had identified the "rute cause" of an issue. i initially thought "how could he let that go through spellcheck." then i realized that spell check doesn't suggest "root" when you type "rute". it suggests things like runt, and cute, and things like that. so i can see why he probably just turned spellcheck off. if you're that far off, it doesn't help much.

Was he Jamaican?

Hahah, close enough - Guyanese
He was most famous for calling everyone "skunt". He lost his job years ago and was not able to find another management job for obvious reasons. Old company gave him management spot because of his cop mentality (he was a customs agent in Guyana). As a bottom level manager he would terrorize all the sheep to keep them in check.

Whats a larger? Is that like an imperial, or double?
You guys ready for this one? According to that, I'm the supposed 3rd place finisher in categories 14A and 14B
.....I never submitted an IPA.

Dude, pretty darn impressive if you ask me. Top three finish in a category you didn't enter? Imagine if you HAD entered the category. You probably could have swept the top three spots with one beer.
That's just how DAMN good my hefeweizen was! So good, it couldn't be contained to merely one category.

Good god... I actually thought this thread would have petered out a while ago, but it just continues to give!

It petered out, but not it's alive again. Long live this thread.

If you submitted a Hefeweizen, I'm guessing he just reversed his list of winners for categories 14A/B and 15A/16C/18C.

I like the "FIRST WEST COAST EAST COAST BREW OFf". Like he isn't closing the door to another.

Art doesn't know about the caps lock, he just holds down the shift key. His finger slipped as he was hammered from all the free beer he's been drinking lately.

As soon as I realized what that email was, I deleted it. I'd love to know how many of those winners:
1. Are actual people
2. Are members of Art's club
3. Also have poor grammar

I just read this whole thread and I am so glad I didn't enter in this. I'm sorry all this happened. I can't wait to see some score sheets.
My 3rd place beer was the disqualified one. Apparently he wasn't too happy of my wording in an e-mail I sent requesting information on why it has taken to mid-January to post scores and results from a half-a**ed competition that took place last Thanksgiving. So he got upset and told me my entry had been disqualified.
I expressed my sincere anguish that I would no longer be receiving his macaroni noodle art as a yellow prize ribbon.
Not sure how that response went over...

Wow, how did that email look?

Nice! This guy has less professionalism than the 13 year old that works at my local McDonald's. It's funny too that your disqualification is presumably some form of punishment in his mind, as if his "contest" has any merit, as if the submitters have been eagerly awaiting their ribbons. Yeah, Art, you really pulled this one off.

I'd pass that story to the AHA if I was you. The more complaints they get, the less likely they are to sanction and publicize this disaster next year.
Good idea, I think I will actually.

Poor Art. He probably can't even spell AHA, and how he's gonna be on their $hit list.
