Things Opie was right about
160 2019-05-12 by lawyerherelistenup
Ant is human garbage
Jim Norton is a fucking creep thus Uncle Paul was a little "too real"
Sam is a backstabber
Chip is embarrassing and just baby-talk
Rich Vos taking his shirt off every Jim and Sam appearance was hack for a "legend" doing it for over thirty years.

You left off this one:
2 lawyerherelistenup 2019-05-12
Awhile back I was listening to an ep where Sam was relaying a news story and said "Rochester". Opie stopped him and said "the home of Brother Wease" and then scolded Sam that anytime he says Rochester for any reason whatsoever, he needs to add the home of Brother Wease. In hindsight, this treatment of Sam coupled with the underlying lesson being Opies loyalty is brilliant

Grapefruit IPA drank pretty good
2 bornrevolution 2019-05-12
i had a sour IPA last night at some bar and halfway through it i realized it was grapefruit. brotherman, it was delicious.

Sours and sour IPAs are fucking terrific.
1 bornrevolution 2019-05-12
I live in the midwest and they’re fucking everywhere these days, I’m all about them.
1 Keiths_skin_tag 2019-05-12
Yeah sours are the new fad and I don’t mind. I’m in upstate ny and go to VT quite a bit. They’re on top of the beer game there. Mark my words Foam brewery will be huge!! Best sours ever. Ommegang here in Cooperstown makes a great pale sour too.

What was it about the word "peckas" that used to send you homosexuals into giggling school girl fits?
Fuck that shit was gay.
1 lawyerherelistenup 2019-05-12
Opie was the only one who seemed to understand that shit was baby humor. Jim farted again....here we go...
2 kingship75 2019-05-12
Not to say Opie wasn't magnanimous. He even wiped shit above his lip in an effort to go with Jim's "bit." All in an effort to show goodwill.
The Opester's real crime was ever giving a FAWK about any of those guys, to be completely honest witcha'. He should've kept his head on a swivel.
sniff

A man in a costume saying the word peckers in a baby voice is something that only a 6 year old should enjoy.
2 TriangleDimes 2019-05-12
did anyone recover those old "list of why opie sucks" threads from the last sub? I think its important to remember that he was still a dumb lying psycho
1 rent-a-cop 2019-05-12
I don't hate opie but to act like he was the reason for his success is ridiculous. He even said that he would have been nothing without ant.
1 CommodorePawsey 2019-05-12
Which is true but doesn’t diminish the role he played in Ant’s success. Opie is, undoubtedly, a liar about many things but usually for on-air purposes. He admits he needed Anthony. Anthony shit on him 24/7 behind his back. The irony is that most of the criticism that came from Jimmy and Anthony was that Opie was first of all, paranoid, and secondly, unfunny. The man wasn’t paranoid. He was right. These guys were talking about him behind his back constantly. As for the unfunny part? Opie himself said he was never the funniest guy in the room. He interfered sometimes, but look at how hopeless they both are without him. I will take a high failure rate if the small success rate is still good enough to make me millions. And they stabbed him in the back.
1 rent-a-cop 2019-05-12
Let me preface this with the fact that I dont hate opie. His persistence is the reason I had a great show to listen to for years. The only thing I never liked about him was his jealousy towards Howard and he let that get in the way of keeping the show going. To me, his grudge is the cause for a lot of his issues.
To be fair, ant was doing radio a bit before opie. Yes, opie gave him the big break but ant wasnt solely relying on op.
Opie was a dick to everyone. You could even hear him snap at people on air at times. He was unfunny and rude. If he wasn't rude and ruin the mood, they would have had nothing. He was unable to control his emotion and hated when he was the butt of a joke.
He might have been stabbed in the back but they had a good show and he returned the favor for not fighting to get ant back. Regardless of your feelings, he should have done more about it, if not for ant, for the fans.
I never said they didn't need him. He was a great board op. The issue I have is how he needed them as much as they needed him and he turned his back on them almost immediately. He was upset at ant for the divorce because of his wife, he couldn't handle the fact that Jim and ant became better friends even though opie brought Jim on, and he hated how he could never be the funny guy. He should have sucked it up and kept the show going for the fans that were the reason he is a millionaire. He couldn't admit he was one third of the issue until fans turned on Jim and ant. Once that happened, he admitted his fault and then went to trashing them. He got off easy but I still like the dude because I got many laughs due to his foresight into talent

I don’t think anybody needed that fat titted idiot to point this stuff out. Fuck Opie too.

none of those are true, pal. thats a self defeating theory you got there!
what is true however is the fact that gregg " opie" hughes drinks strawberry shandys out of baby assholes. this has been 100% confirmed

The stangles made good radio.
U2 are a good band.
Carl Ruiz is funny.
Sherrod Small & Vic Henley are great comics.
Anything Opie got right doesn't detract from this

But all those things are common knowledge, we all knew this.
1 SirSodomy 2019-05-12
He was always right. His only criticism was that he occasionally didn’t flow perfectly into a comedic conversation with comedians
1 late_50s_why 2019-05-12
Remember when Morton punched in the authorization code for his nuclear football the only thing he can think of to shit on Opie is that the man wasn't all that funny
1 Cumias_folicles 2019-05-12
Even with brotherman love going on here that's sugar coating it a bit. It's almost statistically impossible how few times he actually said something funny over that many years on a comedy show. But he definitely I think had a better idea of what the audience wanted to hear. He didn't use the show for his own wants like Jimmy with the porn whores and celeb photos and Ant with the politics/race rants. The things that ultimately ruined the show had nothing to do with him.
1 Nothing_of_merit 2019-05-12
What i never understood was that the "Nopie day" radio shows were some of the funniest radio jim and ant did. But without opie, both their podcast/shows fucking stink.

Opie appreciation is a sharper blade in Anthonys heart than a leaked sex tape with a tranny would be.
1 TomaszLuniewski 2019-05-12
Very perceptive indeed. Kinda shocking coming from a man who asked what makes the sea water salty...
2 ButtFarts2019 2019-05-12
He asked what made salt water bad for you. Nice try with the hate though.
1 Kenn_Kennnerson 2019-05-12
Chicken soup has water and salt. The opester brings up an interesting conundrum...
1 ScarletNumbered 2019-05-12
Oh no, it's a moral conundrum...CONUNDRUM!
1 MattyDrumm 2019-05-12
To be fair, he did literally ask what makes the sea so salty
1 CommodorePawsey 2019-05-12
I will go ahead and field this one as the devil’s advocate. He asked the question in a stupid way, but the answer isn’t merely “salt.” Where did the salt come from? Why is it there? Therefore: why is the ocean salty? Do you think Anthony or Jim know the answer? They would just say “salt” while never really answering the question in a meaningful way.
1 toetriggerattachment 2019-05-12
TOUCH, but don't taste. TASTE, but don't swallow.
1 ScarletNumbered 2019-05-12
And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, fuckin' ass off!
1 panasonictooth 2019-05-12
Its a fair question. Idk how/why the ocean water has salt in it.
1 MattyDrumm 2019-05-12
I agree it's a good question. But the way Opie phrased it invited teasing haha

At this point of course. 14 year old corpses that have been decaying for 7+ years usually get that way. Also because they buried him with lots of food because they thought he could take it with him to the afterlife.
1 ScarletNumbered 2019-05-12
To be fair, he probably stunk in that sense when he was alive, being diabetic and black and all.

I disagree with the Sam one.
Opie was refusing to leave the chair even after ranting against jocks that did the exact same thing. Sam had to make a move or Opie would still be slothing away.
1 BeerCanThick 2019-05-12
Everybody disliked him and was trash-talking him behind his back for more or less 15 years but didn't have the guts to ask for their own show on SXM, or gang up on him and oust him.
The current thing he's right on is Jimmy is the Jim and Sam Show's very own Opie and nobody can stand working with him, especially Troy. Sam will backstab Jimmy pretty soon. That way Sam can be top banana on the "Negro Clown Shoes and Shittiest Era of WWE Ever Show."

Vos doing the Kreischer bit is fucking embarrassing. More so than getting bullied on the tits and pedo show.
1 aprosbro 2019-05-12
Opie was behind blocking porn stars from coming in, and insisted they have DL Hughely in- Norton was mad about the porn stars and wanted to keep stonewalling DL instead of squashing the beef that only he was aware of.
