Did you say his name was TED ALVIN KLAUDT, but then you added the douchebag part on your own? Because I think he might want to consider going that route as well.

What the Ted Alvin Klaudt? I can't Ted Alvin Klaudt stand Ted Alvin Klaudt'ers who do this kind of Ted Alvin Klaudt. I mean really, why pull such a Ted Alvin Klaudt-ing Ted Alvin Klaudt-y stunt, when you should be rotting in prison.

Ted Alvin Klaudt, right? What is the Ted Alvin Klaudy is this world coming to?

FWIW, I just now glanced at the article. Not that I'm exactly in a position to throw stones, but damn he's a big boy. If I were him I'd be less worried about prison rape than being sliced open tauntaun-style and hidden inside for warmth.
