In lieu of Jimmy's Vice show, can we cool it with the Jimmy hate for a bit?
0 2014-05-03 by dianakurlan2
Ok, maybe hate is too strong of a word. But we all have things about the boys that annoy us, Jimmy included.
But if we don't try to support Jimmy and his show, which I'm sure will be good, then we can't complain the next time GQ comes out with a "funniest comedians named Jim" list and Norton isn't on it.
Jimmy tries to sound smart
Oh, look, future Jimmy is repeating himself
Does Jimmy think he knows sports?
Etc, etc... we've all heard it before. But I think Jimmy at least deserves for us to give his show a chance, and to try to unify as a fan base just this once. The guy is in a career crossroads at the moment.
Jimmy will never be Louis CK or Bill Burr, but he can at least be more popular than he is now, and if we try to be more positive about the l'il fellah for a few weeks while his show is being tested, I think it could help him out.
We can always redirect our hate toward Todd Pettengill and Roland.
What do you say, gang?
Edit: Well, this thread went well.

What a dummy you are! Just because we rag on him on reddit doesn't mean we don't support the little guy.

No one could love that tub o' lard. It's why he needs to shove down starch, to fill that unfillable hole.

"In lieu of"?
He's not getting the VICE show?

I hope it bombs

Yeah, it's actually kind of annoying to see. Since when is Jimmy the worst part of the show? You'd think he was, with all the fits being pitched by our rebellious against the grain posters.

Surely at this point we've agreed the Opie & Anthony show should kick all current staff and talent out of the studio and instead have Louis CK guest host on a permanent basis? Unless somebody's got a problem with him too.
-1 buttriot 2014-05-03
Especially considering that Opie is the one that has been holding the show back for a decade.

"then we can't complain the next time GQ comes out with a "funniest comedians named Jim" list and Norton isn't on it."
Who here complains about Jim not being on any funniest comedian lists?
1 Danielson799 2014-05-03
Idiots or bleacher report readers are the only people who complain about lists.
0 uhh-huhh 2014-05-03
They can have a list with the ''funniest comedians named Jim Norton'' and he wouldn't be on. Fuck those GQ yuppies.

You don't know how to use the phrase "in lieu of" properly. It isn't interchangeable with the term "in light of." I hope for your sake that you haven't been saying this phrase improperly your whole life.
3 rumpumpumpum 2014-05-03
So you're saying that you can't say in lieu of in lieu of in light of?
1 im_not 2014-05-03
Precisely!

I hope the show fails hard, just like everything else in Jimmy's life. Fuck that elitist ass.
1 Danielson799 2014-05-03
How can an online show fail hard?
