Frischling Lies About... Yom Kippur

In a claim that serves no purpose but to gain him attention, travel blogger/pathological liar Steven Frischling claimed he once spent Yom Kippur in the Mid-East:

One of our trusty readers, who has been following Frischling's escapades for years, points out that the lying fish went to Bahrain just once, in 2004. But that was in the spring, while Yom Kippur that year fell on the 25th of September.

As with Fishtard's lies about being in New Orleans after Katrina, all you have to do is visit the Sportsshooter board to see Frischling was nowhere near Bahrain that week.

In this post, on September 23, he mentions he was in Massachussetts the day before.

"I was just in Hunts Photo & Video in Hadley, MA, yesterday afternoon (and actually on the phone with the manager at this moment)."

In this post 30 minutes later, Frischling mentions he plans to be in New York the next week. No mention whatsoever of a stopover in Bahrain.

Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year for Jews, but obviously not so holy to Frischling to stop him from lying about it to gain insignificant attention from strangers on Twitter.

So if it wasn't 2004, perhaps it was another year. So what year was it, Frischling? Perhaps it was a covert mission for Homeland Security and you were forbidden from blogging, Tweeting or writing about it any way?

  2. I'm sure ETB will cry antisemitism again.

  3. More lying caught. Of course this is the act of "bullies" to point this out.

  4. I won't visit ETB since I don't have a VPN.... what are the latest insane rantings?

  5. You would think with FishFraud fans watching and verifying his every tweet that Steven Frischling would get a clue and start thinking about what he tweets.

  7. 1:39, it's not safe to go over there. They're unhinged. It's the same stuff, repeated over and over (and not lacking for irony).

  8. ETB aka AF is clearly mentally ill. He tweets about his bipolar disorder. It's rather sad he is FishFuck's only real defender. I hope he gets some help and doesn't off himself when he realizes he's been had by a con artist.

  9. Skyvan sounds just like Frischling. For someone who claims to have spent 75% of his life using the internet, though, it's hard to believe he doesn't know how to book his BA trip online.

  10. It's bad that he's not well. I don't have to read it so I won't. He'd probably do well to stop all that ranting - couldn't be good for him either. Whether it's him or Sunny, or Fish writing all that crap on ETB it's not doing anyone any good.

    A) Can anyone tell us what the heck this means? Does it make any sense or show any true meaningful SM developmental paradigm? Anyone? Bueller?

    B) Would anyone in a real world marketplace contract with someone who tweets this kind of buffoonery with such misguided regularity?

    C) Notice how his little buddy's nonsensical and profane blog goes silent when the poor blighter is in hospital? Coincidence? You decide.

  12. How do we know its AF that is now carrying ETB editorial duties?

  13. You're not playing with any new "concept," Fishdick. If you don't know what a word means, then don't use it in one of your nonsensical tweets.

  14. I went over to look at ETB. It is really vile. I can't imagine that somebody would think that this would be an antidote to FishFraud. If anything, it proves that our friends are reading everything that we write, and the lack of rebuttal simple serves to verify that FishFraud is simply serving up the facts.

    I think that there should be more links back to the ETB site so that casual visitors can see for themselves how a social media strategist and executor handles a PR crisis.

    One day FishFraud is going to make it big time as a social media melt-down case study. I can feel it.

  15. Does anyone know how old Susannah is? How old she was when she had Frischling's baby? I am curious, Google lists her as in high school from 94-99 which seems to make her very young when she had his first baby.

  16. He must be nearly 10 years older than her

  18. I'm not sure if she is 10 years younger. However, she was young and was a runaway when she met him.

    ReplyDelete
  19. No I think she ran away to be with him. He said he met her online. I think he's about 6 or 7 years older.

    either way, they're both nasty.

  24. When is fishdick going to Iran?

  25. I heard he was stranded in Mecca after covering the Hajj. Seems one of the retard commuter airlines he covers in the Empty Quarter wouldn't accept his White House pet-door access credentials or his Trailer Park Airways frequent flyer miles- thereby leaving him stranded among millions of faithful pilgrims to spread the word of Judaism.
    You go, Steve! You are the man. Maybe you can get a zodiac and cross the gulf for your Shia coverage in Qom you tweeted about yesterday on Twitter Intergalactic across the F#@!&N cosmos!
    Btw... hows that court case goin?

  30. Steven, do the neighborhood school crossing guards hassle you too for crossing the street without one of your White House pool credentials? I get stopped all the time. I have to go through all 15 of my credentials before anyone believes I'm a for real photographer. Do tell.

  31. This ass-clown just absolutely CANNOT stop can he? He just HAS to lie every single day about SOMETHING... ANYTHING.

    Steven, I know you're reading this; you need to seek professional help. This is NOT a dig, it's a plea. As much as I enjoy this site, I really and truly feel sorry for you. You have a very serious problem and it is impacting your family in a very real way. Your children deserve better Steven.

    Your inability to control your mental illness (compulsive lying) is hurting more than just your on-line reputation, it's hurting your ability to earn a living and provide for your children. Children are very vulnerable and they deserve to live in a stable home, with stable parents.

    Steven you're young enough to bounce back from the disaster that your life has become, but you have to seek help quickly. It's not about YOU anymore Steven. Think about your poor children man.

  32. For a guy like me, its hard to think of why someone would want to make this up. OK, it sounds interesting, if he had really did it, but why go out of your way to tell this kind of story?

    I guess I can kind of understand. Social media is made for liars and story tellers. You can go far by simply lying. 95% of the people out there will take you at your word.

    Thats even in a normal situation. But he's doing it knowing full well that all of his tweets are being monitored and fact-checked by an army of FishFraud fans that are hungry for new content.
