Congratulations! to the first winner of this new award, the Steven Senti award, or nicknamed “the stewert,†meant to honor the freeloadingest primitive of 2014.
There were six high-quality freeloaders on the ballot:
are_grits_groceries
ColesCountyDem
IronGate
Left Coast2020
rbrnmw
stewert
Other than the eventual winner, these are pretty obscure primitives,
unterprimitiven, part of the faceless lynch-mob, and so some details might be necessary, to recall them.
are_grits_groceries is the crazy cat-woman down in South Carolina, who more than once pleaded for funds for veterinary bills for her cats, or for bills for repairing her car.
ColesCountyDem is the registered sexual offender.
IronGate was apparently a mole, but one who succeeded in fleecing some primitives.
Left Coast2020 is from northern California, and wished to move down to New Mexico after being kicked out by his roommate.
rbrnmw is the primitive who attempted raising funds for a young relative’s defense expenses against a charge of drunken driving; it turned out the relative had a past history of drunken behavior, and the accident had injured or killed a grandfather and his young grandson.
No details are needed to describe the winner,
stewert; surely everybody remembers stewert.

The awards are of course intended to commend a primitive for his activities over the past year, not preceding years, but one has to quote this, to give the “back-story,†stewert’s first appearance here in the DUmpster:

primitive needs some help fast

And how long's the Big Zero been in the White House now?
I thought such things weren't going to happen any more; the primitives promised us they wouldn't.

Hey Folks I Need Some Help Fast....
My name is Steve Senti, and I own www.oreilly-sucks.com, I have run it for 13 years now. About 3 years ago my 89 year old Father got Alzheimers and Dementia so I had to care for him 24 hours a day 7 days a week. It was really tough because of all the stress, etc. but I did it because I loved my Father with all my heart.
In fact, we got so close over the last 3 years it was ridiculous, we were as close as a son and Father could get. I had to feed him, wash him, put his clothes on, help him to the bathroom, take him to his doctors, and on and on.
But I did it because he was my Father, then he got sick in January of this year. It got worse and worse and he was in and out of the hospital about 9 times from February until April, when the doctors basically forced me to put him into a nursing home. Which was the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my life. Because my Father had told me he would rather be dead than go to a nursing home.
So on April 12th I agreed to put him into a nursing home, and at that point the doctor said he only had a month or so to live. And I was devastated, I just sat in his house all alone (because my Mother passed away in 1998) crying all day and all night waiting for the call to tell me he had passed away.
It was literally like being tortured, I was crying about 10 times a day and I did not know what to do. Because his social security and pension paid all the bills, so not only would I lose my Father and my only family, I would also lose my financial support.
So on May 14th the phone rang at 4:20am and I knew what it was, they told me my Father had passed away. Now I have $1.000.00 a month in bills and no income, except for the roughly $150.00 a month I make from my website selling text link ads for $20.00 a month.
I am 53 years old with a bad back and other medical problems, I get food stamps and free medical through the local OSF Sisters Community Clinic. I am unemployed and I have filed for SSI and Public Aid. In June I got a decision on my SSI and they denied it. So I found a law firm to take my case and file an appeal.
I filed for Public Aid in May, and to this day they have still not made a ruling on my claim, and it was for emergency cash assistance. My family has been helping me pay the bills since May, and my Father has a small life insurance policy of $1.000.00, but that money is almost gone.
I need to make it until November, because they say I should have a ruling on my SSI appeal by then, and I should have a ruling on my Public Aid by then too. To make long story less long, I need the help of all the DUers, I need you guys to help me raise the money to pay my bills for another 2 months, which is about $2.000.00.
If you guys could help me and make a donation to my paypal account it would keep me from being homeless, and broke. I am still having trouble getting over my Fathers death, I am depressed and I still think about him every day and cry 3 or 4 times a day.
He was not only my Father, he was my best friend too, and he was like a son to me also, because taking care of him was like having a 5 year old kid. So when he died it was like losing my Father, my best friend, and my son. I have sold everything I can, to pay the bills, including the vacumn cleaner, the lawn mower, the weed trimmer, my watch, everything, but my tv.
You guys are my last hope, if I can not raise at least $1.000.00 by September 10th, I do not know what I am going to do, because I will not be able to pay any of my bills. I only need to make it to November, and then I hope to win my SSI appeal by then, or at least get my Public Aid claim approved.
So please make a donation, here is my paypal email:
oreillyspins@yahoo.com
And I also have a paypal donation page on my website:

Steve
P.S. Note to Skinner, and the mods, I know you do not like people posting threads like this, but I have no choice, and I hope you let this stay on the board. I have been a member here for a long time, and I know I did some stupid things in the past, but I was drunk when I did it and dealing with my Father which led me to drink, it was very stressful and pretty much a living nightmare. The stress of taking care of my Father led me to drink way too much, and I hope you can forgive me for that and help me.
No primitive responses. The primitives don't care.

10. And btw.....................
For the person who emailed me saying I am just a lazy bum who should get a job, I am not on welfare, and never have been. In fact, after my Father passed away was the first time in my life I even filed for welfare, but I do not have it yet. By law they are supposed to make a ruling on my claim within 30 days, and yet it's been 3 months and they still have not made a decision yet.
I have tried to find a job, I even applied at Wal-Mart and many other places, but none of them will hire me, I can not even get to an interview, nothing. I also forgot to mention one thing, my Father was a WWII veteran, he helped to make this country free, he won the Bronze Star and the Purple Heart. He was a 3rd division infantryman who also won the marksman badge.
I miss him so much I can not even get thorough this posting without crying, my Father was my whole life, he was everything to me, it was my job to take care of him, and now he is gone. I am all alone and I still think about my Father about every 15 minutes. The only time I do not think about him is when I am sleeping, and I am also having trouble sleeping because I worry about everything, like money and what I am going to do if my SSI appeal is denied and my Public Aid claim is denied.
What do I do then, what do I do if nobody will hire me, does anyone know, can anyone answer that question. What does a person like me do if SSI and Public Aid both deny me and I can not find a job anywhere?
Another fine example of the most brilliant people in the world.
I know anyone can fall on hard times, but this seems to happen to DUmmies more than anyone else.

stewert made some appeals for money beginning early in the year:

Attn: All DUers Read This: I Need Your Help!
My name is Steve Senti, I am 54 years old and disabled. I own and run oreilly-sucks.com and have been a member here since 2001.
I posted here a few months ago after my Father passed away in May of 2013. I was living with my 89 year old Father who had alzheimers and Dementia, I took care of him and paid the bills with his social security and pension money. Now he is gone and I am all alone in his house with $800.00 a month in bills.
I am still trying to get over his death and a day rarely goes by that I do not cry thinking about him because I miss him so much. I was in control of his entire life for the last 2 years, and he was not just my Father he was my best friend too. We got about as close as a Father and son could get and I am still depressed from him being gone.
I am on food stamps and I get my medical care from the OSF community clinic, the state pays for it with a medical card that went into effect on 1-1-14, and they pay for my 5 prescriptions with a $2.00 co-pay for each one. I am disabled with a bad back and other medical problems, so it limits what I can do.
I got a law firm called myler disability to file my SSI claim, it was denied and we filed an appeal, the appeal was denied in December and we filed the next appeal for the ALJ hearing with a judge, where most appeals are won. But they tell me it will take 11 to 13 months to get the appeal hearing with the judge, here is a copy of the most recent letter they sent me.
after which scan of a letter
I do not have much of an income, I make $100 to $200 a month selling ad space on my website, but some months I do not make anything. So I need to raise some money to help me pay my bills until I get my SSI ALJ appeal hearing in December.
So if anyone can help me and make a donation I would appreciate it very much, I need to raise about $7.000 dollars to get me to December. Now I understand that is a lot of money, and I do not expect you guys to donate that much to me.
But if you can donate anything it will help. I have even tried to find work I can do and had no luck. I even tried to get the state vocational rehabilitation office to find a job I can do and so far they have not found anything for me either. So it looks like I am on my own until December, that means I need to raise $7.000 to pay my bills for the next 11 months.
I was lucky to sell an ad spot on the website recently, which will give me enough money to pay the bills for February. But if I do not raise some money from donations by the end of february, I will run out of money by March.
So please donate if you can, I have a paypal donation page on the website:
http://www.oreilly-sucks.com/donate.htm
And my paypal e-mail is: oreillyspins@yahoo.com
Steve
P.S. Even if you can not donate, if you could keep this thread kicked up so everyone can see it for a couple day I would appreciate it.
Thank you.

stewert made several such appeals during 2014, with only slight variations in the plea, but the primitives were suspicious, as research showed this:

18. right here
thanks for nothing pal. maybe you should try to live on no money when ur stuck between a rock and a hard place with a bad back but not bad enough to get disability.
then have to live with ur crazy old 82 year old father just to survive. then do a public service to the American people (for no pay) by documenting all the crap o'reilly says and have your so-called friends rat you out to the mods at DU.
good job, i hope your proud of yourself. now you can say you helped to stop people here from visiting my website and helping me make some money to eat on.
maybe i'll just shut my website down and give up, because of people like you.

19. Well Stewert, maybe you should take two steps back and look at it from OUR point of view.
We have no way of knowing if you are for real or not.
Never met you in real life; probably never will.
We haven't seen you post here in a year, and suddenly we get PM's asking for money. It's a bit "off-putting".
And your timing really SUCKS, seeing as how we JUST YESTERDAY had a major Internet Spam-Artist get tombstoned here.
Y'know, I'm leaning toward deciding that you are "for real", just because a con artist would know better than to cop such an INSULTING, PISSY-ASSED 'TUDE.
If I had any money, I'd send you some. But I don't. I'm an artist, and my total income in this, the 6th Year of B*shenomics, has been less than $500 so far. I have a pending sale that may boost it to $575 in a week or two.
That's GROSS income; if I figure in materials costs, I'm about $200 in the hole.
If you actuall maintained a PRESENCE here, no doubt a lot of us would be willing to help generate traffic for your site, which might lead to more donations, or even some ADVERTISING $$$ if you get dependable traffic..
But just showing up out of the blue like this, hitting us up for donations while we're still trying to REMEMBER you?
BAD plan, friend.

20. Hey, if you're on the level with this, that's fine
and I wish you the best. But the net is a strange place, as I'm sure you know, and I find that things like this make me reflexively suspicious. If that's just needless paranoia on my part, then I'll offer you a quick public apology here and ask the mods to remove this thread.

Hey Folks I'm In Big Trouble And Need Help
I am disabled and unemployed and barely getting by paying the bills in my Fathers house, I am in the process of getting an SSI appeal hearing with an administration law judge, but the law firm I have says it will not be until October or November, maybe as late as December.
And then today I got a 30 day notice to get out of the house, from my half brother Butch, who has $32,000 in the house. He wants to sell it so he can get his money back.
Here is a photo of the letter I got from him today:
after which scan of a hand-written letter
Now I have 30 days to find a place to live, and I have very little money to do it. So if you guys could make some donations and help me out I would be forever grateful.
Here is my paypal e-mail: oreillyspins@yahoo.com
And here is my paypal donation page from my website: http://www.oreilly-sucks.com/donate.htm
If anyone has any ideas where I can get a place to live with almost no income and no job, please reply and let me know about it. And I was wondering if someone can tell me if the 30 day notice means I have to be out of the house by the end of the 30 days, or if I can continue to live in it until it is sold, or the 90 days he talks about is up.
In the letter he says the realtor has a guarantee he will sell it in 90 days, or he will buy it. Does anyone know if that means I can stay in the house while they are trying to sell it, or do I have to be gone by the end of the 30 days.
What if I refuse to leave, how long would it take to evict me?
Thank you,
Steve

But by October of this year, stewert’s
schtick had begun turning off even the primitives. He tried some clumsy
superfuges, such as posting appeals in forums other than General Discussion, but apparently they didn’t seem to work. He was dropped off that primitive wish-for-a-dupe site. He was called out on the message-board of his local (Peoria, Illinois) newspaper.
stewert’s brother finally got him out of there so the house could be sold, and the last anyone knows, the freeloader was living in the attic of a “friend,†still on the prowl for money from other people.
