If you go back and listen to O&A, even the "good years," you can easily tell when Jimmy has been on his phone.

He'll give one word "yeah" and "uh huh" responses, adding nothing. Or worse, he'll just go silent for 5-10 minutes at a time and then jump in with some stupid comment that just reveals that he isn't following the entire conversation and basically only heard half of the last sentence someone said.

All the things you catch now after the fact are interesting, now that we know the psychology and faggotry behind it.

I can still listen to clips of the show when Patrice or Louis CK were guests but even then its hard to listen to Anth. His constant jokes about fucking kids now makes my skin crawl. What a Corsican ghoul

The other thing they did was read their phones and steal jokes from tweeters. Opie usually gave due credit but the others didn’t.

That's because Opie would only read the calls riffing with/praising his jokes.

Not true cumia lover. He read jokes without prejudice

Yeah, it was so much better when they stopped the show to properly credit whoever sent it in. Really added to the flow.

It’s about inTEGriTEE

I recall the video Opie took when Erock smashes the shit jingle guys name gave him. Nortworm was on his phone the whole time. Almost to the point he got shattered plastic in his eye because the fuck wasn’t paying attention.

^ niiice

He was also writing his books in studio instead of doing his job. Then he got made that there were times the execs wanted to get rid of him.

He also napped in the offices of Tough Crowd with Keith when he was supposed to be writing sketches, and then proceeded to blame Comedy Central and refer to them as scumbags for motherfucking him out of a nappy job.

so how about this, there this kinda cringey retarded dude thats into this hot female, so he said to her "but ye highness is still plagued with horniness" while pointing at his penis, he calls it peckaz btw, so the hot female said to him "show me what you can do with thy bee hives", he did and the bees was stinging him right, so he yells "they stinging me effing peckz b"

That's a 60k idea right there

On the other hand Giraldo put his soul into that show.

no wonder that his greatest years were before the iphone came out

It's probably nostalgia but everything was better before the iphone

Was Fez on his phone too?

I mean, if Ronny had the stick, yeah.

Whoa hold on there partner, didn’t you get the memo? This sub worships that useless queer.

Alone on his death bed, he'll hire someone to bring his favorite signed celebrity photos to his hospital room for comfort.

Jim’s autograph seeking is one of the few things I don’t despise about him. I love to imagine all the showbiz opportunities he missed out on by behaving like a comicon level fanboy.

Honestly, he was protecting all of us from having to see him play anything bigger than a Sam Raimi extra.

We don't want aaaAAAAAny part of that.

Infuriating that he had the easiest job in the world and he couldn't be bothered to do it.

breathes in

If you go back and listen to O&A, and you’re no longer shocked by “lol I like trannies” you’ll realize Jim was always uninteresting and when he did the talking, it always sucked.

He was only good for quick lines when someone else was talking or ranting about something funny

It's been a very long time since The Rape of Agatha Tinsley and Your Baby's Dead

One time Vos called him out on constantly being on his phone and Jim said it was because he was playing Scrabble.

Oh good, scrabble. I thought he might have been ignoring the show for something pointless.

His faggoty celebrity photo obsession killed forever all chance at fame

He said like one thing during Norm's appearance. Didn't laugh at all. I wager he was making the same psychotic expressions as the DL Hughley interview.

Maybe Burr should've replaced him.

I don’t think O&A had “good years”.
