Who is "Booger" according to Bartcop?
I was just reading Bartcop and one of his correspondents mentions that somebody named "Booger" claims, erroneously to have bought stock in Bechtel. From the context I'm guessing that Booger is Chris Matthews, but that's just a wild guess. The relevant post in full:

It is interesting how Booger has bought Bechtel stock.
It is privately owned and not subject to any scrutiny from public stockholders.
No wonder they are a favorite of the B.F.E.E.
Bechtel stock does not exist!!!

-- Hardboiled

Did someone in a public forum claim to have bought Bechtel stock? What's the deal here? This is one reason why I don't cotton to all these cutesy nick names we slap on anybody we don't like. It gets to be so much of a self-referenced inside joke that new readers get turned off because they can't follow who we're hating on from one moment to the next.

1. "Booger" is just another bartcop "fan"...
"fan" as in someone who can't stand bartcop, but can't stop reading either.

just read some of the back issues. i believe it is someone whose last name is boger, and bartcop misspelled it, the reader complained, and so bart repeatedly misspells it just to aggravate.

2. I think it was a Monkey Mail response he published.
Probably some asshole that thought he was being funny.

OTOH, I thought I saw a share price graph in Bart's response....so I'm not sure whether the stock is publicly traded or not.
