Couldn't agree more

The Hatemonger's Quarterly nails spastic, frothing homunculus Jim Cramer:

He now hosts his own program, in which he seldom appears on the screen in a position other than that of a hunched-over idiot. To the perturbing delight of a small studio audience, he bellows about mutual funds in a horrific tone. In fact, his vocalisms are so loud and abrasive that youÂ’d think heÂ’s Susan EstrichÂ’s love child. If tuning in to this train wreck is the price one must pay in order to be wealthy, weÂ’ll take penury any day of the week.

Like the crack young staff at HQ, I cut Cramer no slack for being ideologically compatible with me. Whatever goodwill that might have earned him vanished after ten seconds of watching him chew the scenery on "Mad Money". He's like the Carrot Top of investment advice.

I did not realize until reading their post that "Mad Money" is CNBC's top-rated show. Hey, I have some investment advice for those of you with a financial stake in CNBC. Can you guess what it is?

1 I like to watch financial shows sometimes, and while Cramer gives some good advice, I can't stand to hear his constant screaming.

2 The stock market has been stuck between 10k and 10.5k for years. I bought into a Maine forrest, at least trees are still growing and if it gets much warmer up here we can start growing mangoes

3 His show might be a tad goofy, but he is right on the money most of the time.

5 My thoughts exactly, Maximus! I couldn't have put it better myself. What poetic justice it would be! HaHa!

6 I had to add Hatemonger's Quarterly to my list of favorites. Thanks for pointing me to it, C-Dub. I rarely watch TV. I turn it on at night as I go to bed because it's better than getting addicted to sleeping pills and works every time. So everytime a conversation pops up about this show or that, I never know what people are talking about.

7 Ditto Oyster: Wonder why TV works better than a sleeping pill.
