It's all over for Kadyshes

Hi, it's the original Lego Wig Kade again, making my first post in almost half a year. On or around the New Year, I turned the blog over to "Alex B", a college student in Western Canada. I got bored of writing about Kade at all, after just 2 months and I was really "mailing it in" in November and December. I thought, maybe someone new, who still cared, could inject some interest back into watching Kadyshes flail and fail. It turns out, we'd unearthed much of the dirt on Kade in September and October, thanks to Kade's "friends" (he doesn't have real friends, more like acquaintances from clubbing). After the sad, pathetic details of the Kadyshes clan came out, there was no "there" there. Once it became obvious that Arthur Kadyshes isn't some spoof or faux-guido, that he really just is an obtuse, classless case of child abuse writ large, it became sad to watch Lispy McSlobberfuck mess up his chance at a respectable middle class life, much the same way his father and mother fucked up their respective lives.

I'm here today to shut down this blog, because it's really the only attention Arthur is getting from anyone. He only blogs 2 or 3 times a week these days, he attends guido parties far more than he works (even as an extra), his lies have gotten repetitive, and there really is nothing more to the Kade story than Groundhog Day-like repetition and emptiness. I'd like to thank all of Arthur's "friends" and former co-workers who emailed us tips. I apologize that we didn't want to post everything, because we couldn't cross-check or verify everything... and if we couldn't be 100% sure, we didn't want to detract from our credibility and become as pathetic as Kade.

Before I close the blog and change the password (the former password was "cockgobbler", in honor of Kade) I wanted to present a few facts as a trip down the sad, Norma Desmond (from Sunset Boulevard) "journey" that is Kade's waste of a life. A final, factual round up on the failed douchery of Arthur Kadyshes:

1.) Kade's site is a ghost town. Just look at the trajectory of site visits presented in this snapshot.

2.) Kade isn't getting the attention and feedback he desperately needs as an insecure, immature, formerly abused and neglected boy. Comments on his blog are way, way down. I guess you can only kick a loser so many times before you feel bad about it (or get bored of it).

3.) Kade isn't busy on a TV show, book, or even with extra work. He's writing a free column on Gawker (a site that relentlessly mocks him) once a week. A column that makes him look like a retarded wannabe 33 yr old guido and assures he never gets real acting work. Good job, Lispy.

4.) Both of Kade's parents are convicted small time criminals, Kade was clearly abused growing up, and he still invites a father into his life who has no fatherly interest in his 33 yr old son. A caring father would be able to connect with Kade, get him to stop the drug use and partying, and get into therapy. Ultimately, the groundwork for Kade being a massive zero was laid many years ago. The best explanation for Kade leaving a mediocre, but decent paying, job to start this search for attention and approval is that he's never felt loved or accepted in his life. And now that he's a punchline, even his former girlfriends are avoiding him like the plague, including the one who just got serious with a new (and better) guy and takes care of Arthur's dog that he can no longer care for.

I started to feel bored and kind of evil for mocking someone like this, so I stopped a few months ago. I'm finishing up my psychiatry residency this summer and I didn't want to keep carrying around the guilt of destroying the remaining shreds of Arthur's self worth. I hope we can all move on and I apologize to those who have still enjoyed kicking Arthur while he's down. We'll all be better people for just ignoring this fool and spending our time improving our own lives, careers, and communities.

Thanks to everyone else who helped design and write the blog and especially to those who took care of the blog for the last 6 months while I wasn't active here. After conceiving the blog and setting it up, I did almost none of the work of adding the Twitter feed, designing the site, creating the logos, or even writing the terms of service--that was all contributed by others who volunteered their time and skills. This left me free to email and text message with several of "Kade's Players" (mostly girls) who actually do NOT like Kade... and this led me to the facts about his sad life. I think it's fair to say that we had plenty of laughs and won in the end, but the only way to truly "win" when you're dealing with an attention-needy famewhore is to move on and live a better life yourself. Let Kade keep raging until he's even more haggard and old looking, with less money and prospects than ever.. while we live productive and happy lives.

If you're looking for funny sites that are still relevant, I suggest 419eater.com and rebloggingns.wordpress.com . Matt Beauchamp and other commenters from this blog have joined me over there, I have noticed. I find the topics on those humorous blogs FAR more intriguing and hilarious than anything Kade has done in months. His life is sad, not funny.

Have a great summer and best of luck to everyone,

LWK

P.S. If you want to re-live the douchery of Kade for laughs sometime, all of our videos and other content are still online, the blog will remain online, it's just that I'm closing the blog to new posts/comments to stop feeding Arthur's pathological need for attention. If you're looking for something to remind you of the days when mocking Arthur was high fashion, click here and then check out our other videos.

Inside the Arthur Kadyshes Farce

A few days ago we revealed the fact that Arthur's roommate is Ron Hansen, the same guy who registered El Lego Wig's blog, using the ultra-exclusive GoDaddy.com, 5.9765 months ago. Several tipsters contacted this blog over the past few days, telling us that they've been laughing at Kade for months and now that our blog was running, they wanted to set the facts about Doucheboy's "journey" straight. I replied in true Kade Style: "well, using the word straight in the same sentence as Arthur Kade is questionable, but please share whatever information you would like".

It's important to keep in mind that all our information was volunteered freely and we are greatly appreciative. We confirmed that all these people know Doucheboy and have been giving us their honest opinions and observations. Looking back over the emails and texts, I'm going to make this the first post (of many) that will reveal what we've learned so far... I simply can't get it all into one post and there are still other parts that are unclear/need follow-up. If this post seems fragmented, it's because there is so much ground to cover and our tipsters have a lot more to tell us. Also, I'm trying to copy some of Kade's shitty writing tendencies in this entry (e.g. 5.9765 months, overuse of commas, overuse of quotes, and quoting myself in quotes).

Starting at the top, Ron Hansen is apparently a nice, quiet, shy guy. He wouldn't seem like the type to hang around with Arthur Kadyshes, but they have been roommates for several weeks now. Tipsters say the lease is in Ron's name, and Kade hasn't been on any lease in a long time. He's a house guest--he pitches in for rent sometimes, but not always. Before living with Ron, he was living in the living room of a student, after his first living arrangement ended badly. The arrangement with the student ended badly, too. Kade crashed with G-N Kang for a while, but we're not sure how long or why that situation end. Frankly, we're shocked that situation ended, because G-N is Kade's #1 enabler, shooting much of his video and pictures and generally encouraging Kade.

With Marissa Rosen out of the picture, G-N has become Artie's "go to" girl. Ron has stepped up into a similar role during the same time that many of Kade's "Players" have stopped returning calls or hanging out with him. At some point, Kade made it known that he was low on cash (tipster actually said he used the word "poor" back in the Spring when Kade still had some sense of reality) and presumably this made people avoid him. He started to get a reputation as a sponge/loafer/couch crasher.

Some informants have questioned Kade's choices with money after his gig with Ameriprise ended. For example, if Kade really "owned' a condo, like he claims, he must have had little or no equity in it or sold it for less than he bought it, because not long after, he was said to be hurting for money. He did buy a new car, but he is a bad driver, so he relies on public transportation "more than anyone else I know with a car". Maybe Artie just sucks at driving, or maybe he is hurting for money ($15 Bolt Bus to NYC) and wants to save on NYC parking, the tunnels and bridges, and gas money. How ironic that not only is Kade the ultimate, striving "Bridge and Tunnel" exemplar, he doesn't even drive up there, he uses the train and bus to go through those bridges and tunnels! In short, Art is the exact same "B and T trash" that he attempts to deride on his blog.

Back to the roommate/enabler situation... Ron (Arthur's roommate) is the "CEO" of a "marketing company" based in Perkasie, PA, which is apparently a hotbed of autoracing and marketing or, more likely, just a family home address. The address for WOT Marketing's "World Headquarters" is the relatively rural home address of 312 Harriet Drive, Perkasie PA... Check Google maps and you will be rolling on the floor laughing. (This is all public info available on WOT Marketing's site, by the way...) Hansen's also the guy behind the "Race Chairs" logo on Kade's site. We visited the link and it took us to an online shop of tacky leather chairs bought by people with no taste willing to blow money on something that belongs in the bedroom of an uncultured 14 yr old boy who has a hard-on for race cars. As far as helping Arthur, we've seen several videos where Athur brags that Ron ("a professional chef," said Kade) made him cereal or put some leftovers in the 'fridge. Awesome, Artie!

Sources agree that no respectable girl is going to want to accompany Doucheboy back to his den, but sources were divided on whether the apartment is in Camden or just a less desirable part of Philly. Our most trustworthy source said Camden, but we haven't been able to confirm it either way... the key is, Chatteau Kade is a joke. (Editor's note: four people emailed in and all agreed, the building in Kade's videos in 444 N. 4th St. in a non-"elite" area of Philly.)

Kade's worst housing situation was with the student, who is a quiet, no-nonsense guy, completely unlike Kade. The situation didn't last long and the student gave Artie the heave-ho for several reasons, including the reason that Kade sucks at paying his share. We checked it out, and we can comfortably say that the student (a med student at Jefferson) is far more intelligent and dedicated to his craft. We wish him the best and are sure he'll overcome the trauma of living with a guy who, we're told, doesn't shower much, doesn't use cologne (smells bad), and does indeed wear the same outfits (usually t shirts) over and over. Those pictures we saw of Kade's room with the disgusting carpet... those were not aberrations.

Kade's biggest enablers (there will be another in-depth post later) have been GN Kang, Marissa Rosen, Brett Perloff, Chad Boonswang, Tony Churchilio (mentioned in the Philly Magazine article as "Church"), Sabrina Strickland, and more recently Ron Hansen. Marissa Rosen, the cackler, moved away and since then, no one who knows Kade has wanted to be in a video or be seen publically backing him. We're not sure what effect the Lego Wig blog has had in Kade's "Players" circle, but we do know that the word is getting out within that circle of Philadelphians. Our tipsters all noted that they have passed the blog on to others who hang out with Artie and knew him when he was younger, when he was basically considered a quiet, shy kid, but basically a loser. Sources say it's unlikely we'll see any of Kade's friends voluntarily go on camera--they're too smart to put themselves out there next to a mysogynist with questionable career and fashion choices.

Our sources say that Kade's parents were initially supportive of Kade looking into modeling/acting, although they were wary that he was 31 and most parents would've said he should look for a real job. The sources say, however, that as time goes on, Kade's parents are questioning the whole thing and they think his parents are worried they're going to end up supporting Arthur when this all crashes. You can see tidbits of this where his step mother puts on a happy face (while giving him a ridiculous haircut that became the name of this blog) but soon after, his father questioned Kade's penchant for eating out at overpriced restaurants when he doesn't have the income to justify it.

Of all Arthur's people, G-N Kang (thank you to a reader for e-mailing the art displayed above) has been the most steadfast and supportive. Many people have told us that G-N is a nice person at first, but when you get to know her, she is obsessed with become a celebrity, somewhat like a female Arthur. Not content to be a sidekick on a third-rate local morning show, she wants to become well-known and has spent a lot of time and money to enhance her appearance (which anyone can see if they go to her webpage, which has a full section dedicated to her plastic surgeries). This fixation on looks is shared with the Lego Wig, a tie that binds the two together. G-N and Kade's friendship has seen cracks in recent weeks as Kade's "journey" has started to go off the tracks and show signs of craziness.

Speaking of craziness, club owners and restaurant owners have apparently noticed that Kade is unhinged--they actively dislike him. Apparently, servers and bartenders are in on it... a few weeks ago, at one of Kade's favorite restaurants, it is alleged that someone pissed in Kade's drink (a very slight amount) before bringing it to him. While Kade was drinking it and apparently not noticing, which was the idea, the service staff was laughing amongst themselves from the other side of the restaurant. The staff at Cosi dislikes Kade as well--regarding him as a moocher who mooches off free wifi by buying the absolute minimum. Apparently, Kade also believes he should get things "comped" -- free coffee, sandwiches, etc. He has tried this at Starbucks also... the word is that people are onto him and actively dislike him.

This brings us to the Mogul Room at "G". We have it from a good source that Kade is not allowed into the Mogul Room anymore, because the owners of "G" believe he is too much "drama"--meaning that he walks around with a camera, hectors people to take pictures, is openly mocked while out in Philly (Kade pretends they are "fans"), and Kade is usually wearing a t-shirt. Kade has continued to lie about his welcome status in the Mogul Room, but he is friends with Brett Perloff, so presumably he'll still be able to get into Brett's clubs.

Females who know Kade say he used to be more normal, almost like a regular person (only slightly deluded) but now he has become a pariah. Our best female source said Kade was a "7" before "The Journey" but now he's only a "4.5". The reasons are apparent--poor fashion, smells bad, moocher, bad skin, lego wig, bags under eyes, creepy persona, and ptosis. Needless to say, Kade should've stayed with the "Philly 6" he was dating prior to being dumped by her before "the Journey". Apparently, Kade's growing weirdness was a big factor in her leaving him.

Well that's all for now, like I said, there is a lot of info coming in and it takes a while to sort through the details. There is so much more to tell... until next time, keep checking the blog and have a great weekend!

Other loose odds and ends:
- Website data updated to include this weekend.... Since launching last Sunday (with no link posting or marketing the site on Sunday) we have had 37,000 page visits, from every continent except Antarctica.. Apparently this site is popular not just in the U.S., but the rest of the English-speaking world--Australia and the U.K. are right behind Canada, followed by several European countries, South Africa, and East Asia (e.g. Japan).
- Our site gets much more traffic than Lego Wig's own blog, gets many more comments, and has better fans. Look at our artwork section if you don't believe this.
-The average viewer to our site views 4.66 pages per day. Almost 80% of site visitors visit more than one page, for a "bounce rate" just over 20% ("bounce" is Google Analytics terminology for someone who views one page and bounces). Low bounce rate means this site draws people in to read more... good measure of success.
- We're growing every day. The most recent data shows that 29% of site visitors are new visitors. Help us keep adding to that--let your friends/coworkers know. Even if it's just scribbling a note on a sticky note and putting it on their desk.... it all helps get the word out.
- We get most of our traffic from people directly typing in our URL... however, our percentage traffic from search engines is increasing significantly... it's doubled in the last 4 days (although still far less than direct hits). It is funny that when people type in "Arthur Kade", they're starting to end up here... still a lot of room for improvement and we should be climing the search results each day. The average person who finds the site via search engine visits a whoping 6.5 pages, clearly a good audience for us. Imagine meeting Kadyshes out on the street and he tells you his name and you go home and Google it and then you come to this site... how hilarious would that be? Even better, imagine you type in "lego" and you end up here... apparently, people are doing this and coming to the site and reading it, instead of leaving. As Kadouches would say, "amazing".
- Upcoming: We're working on more stories about Kade's poor tipping, his sitting in expensive areas of clubs even though he usually only drinks soda (which he makes known to everyone), and Kade' open mockery by other people at bars. We'll have specific examples and a full round-up next time.

Preview: Kade lives in Ron Hansen's Windowless Den

That's a fact, ladies and gentlemen. The elusive "roommate" is none other than Ron Hansen, who recently moved out of his parents' house and now lets Kade live in his den. As Kade's ship has been struggling to turn around its nosedive, Ron Hansen has stepped in as other people have bailed.

This and other facts will be discussed in a story this evening. A brief teaser: what club owners hate Kade, why he was banned from the Mogul Room but continues to lie about it, how women really react to Kade in public, how he smells, how often he is mocked in public, who his chief enablers are (will name names), and more...

All of this is straight from people who know Arthur Kadyshes well and are laughing along with us at how he's ruining his life with his pathetic antics...

I'm on call today, but the wait will be worth it.

The "Lego Wig Scale"

Hello readers, while Doucheboy and his surgically-enhanced sidekick/puppeteer are regrouping and trying to figure out a new blog post (must be exhausting, recycling the old shit over and over) I thought we might want to come up with a Lego Wig Scale to rate people. We're not just rating women.. in fact, we're going to look at more than just looks, since our readers are not pathetic junior-high-level losers like Arthur Kadyshes.

As readers know, Arthur Kadyshes is a repressed, disturbed person who enjoys rating women and making in-depth pronouncements about what is good and what is "disgusting" or "repulsive". He's given us such terms as "stripper hot" to describe his ideal woman. Most men do enjoy looking at women, but most aren't so painfully and obviously repressed. Even if they are, they don't broadcast it to the public in a desperate attempt to get attention, which is good because the last thing the world needs is more douchebags judging others. Since Kadyshes enjoyes rating women so much, we figured we'd give him a chance to see where he really stacks up.

Rate this rapey-eyed guy and help start the LEGO WIG SCALE!

In our scale, Angelina Jolie is a definite 10--for being a natural and unique beauty, but also for her humanitarian work, dedication to parenting, and taking on some pretty interesting roles and "dominating" them. (Sorry, I couldn't help that pun....)

Also in our scale, Bernard Madoff is a 1. Another example would be Lizzie Grubman. People who sponge off of others, commit criminal acts, and then expect society to forgive them. These people are only famous for being materialistic scam artists and douchebags... like Kade, but much more "successful".

In the spirit of this blog, we should be sure to include Kade's enablers. I wonder how El Lego Wig would feel if we rate his step-mom (seems vapid, sucks at giving haircuts, talks like a FOB), his Cackling Friend Marissa Rosen (remember those videos where she's cackling?), his Enabler in Chief G-N Kang, etc. Have at it in the comments....

Bonus Feature -- a reader sent in this video, which looks like Kade's Crew practicing to party at one of their douchespots in Atlantic City... check it out!

Douchebag Spotlight: Kade's "Players"

This post has been moved front and center because of a flurry of Philadelphians sending in the names and juicy details about people in Kade's douchebag crew. People emailed/commented with a lot of information about the people Kade mentions in his blog and we're putting some of it here for you to see. In some cases, we're holding back details because we need to confirm them before we post them. Here is the list we have gotten so far. If you can fill in more names, email us at legowigkade@gmail.com . This is only the beginning... we will be running "close ups" on some of these people, as they relate to Kadyshes, in the coming weeks.

These people enable Arthur Kade's psychopathic behaviors (mysogyny, douchebaggery, lying, poor tipping, Guido behaviors) by overlooking them or by encouraging Kade. Here are the identities of those we have been able to confirm:

"Chester Bogart" is Chad Boonswang
"Radio Babe" is G-N Kang
"Samantha" is Marissa Rosen
"Johnny Drama" is Tony Piazza
"Andy Warhol" is Hughe Dillon
"Bling" is Sabrina Tamburino and "Maverick" is Steve Thorne
"Studio 54" is Brett Perloff

"TJ" is Terry Jue

"Tony Starch" is Tony Churchirilo
"Latina Angel" is Sabrina Strickland

"Miami Mark" is Mark Zabludovsky

"Gabbana" is Michelle Miller

"Dolce" is Ania Kukla

"Calvin Klein" is Sean Jones (multiple tipsters say this is Kade's ex-boyfriend)

"The Ex" is Danielle Poe, a plain-looking"Philly 5" that Kade dated for several years (pics available online, use Google)

"Fierce Farrah" is Lindsay Furman

One tipster tells us, "I used to work with Chad Boonswang so that is how I could connect the names. And yes, they are all as douchey as AK."

Kade's blog today was called "Abandonment"... how funny---bc a lot of people who used to know Kade have abandoned him, just like his own parents did. They talk about him behind his back, they laugh at him when he's not looking, and they send information on to our blog. Kade really is starting to be abandoned. The next people that abandon him will be the people who visit his blog to comment on it, because El Legowig has been heavily moderating the comments. Basically, there is no reason to post there anymore... Spread the word about our blog! Tell your coworkers, Twitter connections, facebook friends, etc. The move is on--come here, not to Kade's doucheblog.


Here's the lowdown on some of these individuals that has been sent in by our readers:

Going down the players list filling in the gaps for you guys...some are complete dbags, some are good people...

TJ - Terry Jue - old friend of Kade's from before Kade decided to leave his career and go into this acting bit. He's friends with the whole "crew" but I also see him out with other circles of friends. Hung out with him a few times and don't know him well but seems like a pretty decent guy actually. But when he's out at G, Chelsea, Dusk, etc. he's usually out with the players crew so I guess that makes him a dbag.

Tony Starch - Tony Churchirilo (sp?) - another old friend from back in the day and did the whole 32/125 scene. don't know him well but he was out to dinner with Kade when he was interviewed for the Philly Mag article and was mentioned in the article as "Church."

Latina Angel - Sabrina Strickland - they became friends about a year ago. She is very loyal to friends but you'd better not cross her. She is well connected and knows a lot of important people in the city. Not sure how she feels about Kade at the moment. She's goes to the same clubs: G, Chelsea, Dusk, etc. I think she had been trying to avoid him a bit as of late. Like I said, very loyal and a good girl as long as she likes you.

Miami Mark - Mark Zabludovsky - lived in Miami and just recently moved back to Philly. Same circle of friends as Kade but I don't see them out together much even though they all go to the same places.

Gabbana - Michelle Miller - they call her Mischa. She is the one behind e-Moda. She dates a lot of the local athletes preferably Flyers players. Haven't seen her around much as of late, not sure what the deal is though.

Dolce - Ania Kukla - she dated Kade for awhile after he ended his relationship with Danielle Poe. Nice girl, very energetic, a little crazy, good friends with Michelle Miller, hence the Dolce & Gabbana nicknames. She and Michelle were originally friends with GN Kang and met Kade through her. She's pretty and a sweet girl. But then again, she dated Kade...

Fierce Farrah - Lindsay Furman - she is friends with the entire crew but has other circles of friends too. I see her out with different groups of people - some are good people, others are typical philly dbags. She takes a lot of pictures with Kade (she is the pretty girl with the crazy hair in Kade's blog pics). She likes the attention I guess. I've hung out with her a few times and she seems like a very nice girl. She's like one of those people who seems to be friendly to everyone though I'm not sure that she actually really likes everyone she hangs out with. She definitely goes to the same places: G, Chelsea, Dusk, etc.

The Ex - Danielle Poe is an ex but I don't think this is her so I'm guessing it's the ex from before Danielle. Who that is though, I don't know.

Calvin Klein - Sean Jones - this guy's claim to fame is being on the first season of Survivor. I think he moved to Pittsburgh. Some say that is Kade is gay, this guy was his gay lover.

Minnie Driver - Gala Kanevsky - she's been a part of the Philly social scene since her mid to late teens. She used to hit up all of the clubs. I have hung out with her a few times and she doesn't seem to talk much. So either she's chill and a little shy or she's just stuck up. She seems friendly though. I've seen her out with the crew for sure. I think that she is currently dating Tony Piazza. They certainly hang out a lot together.

Chad Boonswang is an interesting character. He thinks he's the ultimate playboy. Anyone who has met him knows otherwise. Everything written about him is probably true.

Marissa Rosen moved to Israel so at least we wont have to listen to her cackling laugh in the background of future video posts.
Also, if anyone else has more information on Kade's enablers, send additional names to legowigkade@gmail.com

Here's Kade in January 2009 with right-hand woman GN Kang. Look at that face on him! It's ghastly!
