Welcome to The Grumpy Journalist, where we take the world’s nonsense and serve it up with a hearty sprinkle of sarcasm. If you’re tired of fluff pieces, fake news, and journalists who pretend to have it all together, congratulations, you’ve found your new home. Buckle up, because this is not your grandma’s newspaper.

Who are we? Honestly, we’re just a bunch of people who got tired of pretending to be professional. If you’re looking for hard-hitting, unbiased reporting… keep looking. That’s not our vibe. We're here to laugh at the absurdity of the world, mock the ridiculous headlines, and occasionally remind you that, yes, everything is fine, totally fine, and you’re definitely not losing your mind.

Here, you won’t find objectivity. You’ll find sarcasm. You won’t find neutrality. You’ll find grumpy commentary that will leave you wondering if we even like people (spoiler alert: we don't, but we love to roast them). It’s like your favourite gossip column, but with a better vocabulary and a lot less filter.

What’s our goal? Honestly, we’re just here to give you something to read that makes you laugh, cringe, and question your entire life. We cover the real, the fake, and the so ridiculous it could only be real, because the world has turned into one big dumpster fire and we’re just here with a marshmallow roasting stick.

So, why stick around? Because life’s too short for boring news because the world needs more sarcasm and less, well, everything else. Plus, if you’ve made it this far, you might as well see what else we’ve got in store. We’re not your therapist, but we’re better than a self-help book and we’re probably less condescending.

Now, a quick word about the profile picture. Yes, we know it’s Sir Trevor McDonald. No, it’s not actually us (if it were, we’d be living a much better life) but honestly, who wouldn’t want to channel the legend of British journalism himself? Sir Trevor, if you’re reading this, we’re sure even you are sitting there wondering, “WTF is going on in this world?” (And we’d be right there with you, buddy).

Disclaimer: If you’re easily offended, you’ve already made a mistake by even being here. But if you like sarcastic headlines, biting commentary, and the occasional existential crisis about the state of the world, welcome aboard. We promise not to make you feel too good about yourself, but you’ll at least laugh at the chaos we call reality.

Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the dumpster fire we call news. Or don’t. We’re not your babysitter.

Follow us on X, where free speech is Elon’s favorite pastime, and sarcasm is our second language. Join the chaos at The Grumpy Journalist on Twitter: @WittyGrumbler. Let’s make the news funny again (or at least mildly entertaining).

Thanks for reading The Grumpy Journalist! This post is public so feel free to share it.

News with a scowl. Serving up the headlines with a heavy dose of sarcasm, cynicism, and a side of eye rolls. Don’t take us too seriously we sure don’t.

Grumpy journalist addicted to LBC, sarcasm, and strong coffee. Reporting with eye rolls, wit, and headlines sharper than your average politician. Sir Trevor’s pic keeps me classy while I rant about the world falling apart.
