grump

Punk old-timer Legs McNeil on how, despite his best efforts at acting like a grump, the Velvet Underground front man was beloved.

Alderman Grump beat a hasty retreat while the crowd set up a loud shout of derision—for he was universally hated and despised.

Now be it known that this Mr. Grump was one of the most arrant scoundrels that ever went unhung.

Every one started, and Grump's countenance did not gather amiability as he sneakingly noticed the general distrust.

The good-natured Bozen was for drinking Grump's health at once, but the colonel demurred.

The moments flew by, and still the two men remained in the same positions, the Pet apparently fast asleep, and Grump wide awake.
