What are you talkin bout? Scorch is friggin hilarious

#STANDWITHJIM

These same Vice hipsters who love all the fucking articles about how to make it in porn and meme t-shirts, but never comment on the articles about the Congo, or Libya? Yeah a bunch of deep fucking thinkers.

How to make it in porn...ON ACID!

Hipsters? More like legsters or somethin tss tss

Fucking homerun!

Double pizzas cawksucka!

I'm all in.

You're not going to talk sense into these faggots, but you sure can bombard them with show references

That's kinda what I like about the show raids. Other shows and fanbases aren't necessarily attacked as much as left confused.

Chip is a knuckleball in internet arguments. Dropping a Chip line shows the other guy that you simply don't give a shit about his arguments AND it alienates him at the same time by giving him the impression that there's an inside joke he doesn't understand. It's confusing and most people simply don't know how to respond to it.

commenters on youtube should be barred from procreating

I... I doubt that's a huge issue for your average youtube commenter.

Why... Why start your comment like that?

It's a linguistic device intended to capture the essence of a specific vocal delivery. It's not a perfect construct, obviously.

Do you actually speak in that halting manor?

Do people ask what the fuck is wrong with you?

Are you Big A? (if you are I know the answer to my first two questions)

That's... that's terrible, I'm sorry.

"How did your linguist die?"

YESSSSSSS!!!!

Grrrrr.

No-no-no-no-no.

Do you actually speak in that halting manor?

If at the time I think it will add a comedic effect. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Here you clearly don't think it does. Let me know if you have any more questions, I'm happy to go as deep with this as you need me to.

I just commented on the video :(

we all did, and I stand by my statement

Alright, as long as we're all made infertile I can get with that

VICE fans on YouTube hate everything that's not about weed, war, or protesting something that has to do with weed or war. I'm gonna have to resub to HBO once this show comes out. Fawk yeah.

it will be online only, no need for hbo.

Oh, that rules. I haven't subbed since Sopranos ended, normally I wouldn't sub for just one show but the VICE show seems pretty good.

edit: By that, I mean the news show that's already on HBO^

but really, jimmy and interviews? but i seem to be the only guy having a bad feeling about this...

It could be a disaster, yeah. I'm guessing they're going to play up to his interests in terms of picking guests, maybe other comedians and people in the porn industry. Who knows? In his element, he might be a regular Ronnie B.

first guests are mike Tyson and Dana White (UFC). He should do a sketch-comedy a la amy schumer; but i guess he pitched something like this before, and this vice thing is his only option right now...

He's said in several interviews that he always wants to do radio if he has the option, I'm sure on some level speaking as a host has become a passion of his. This will definitely put that to the test. He'll either love doing it and put out incredible content, or he'll hate it and flop. I'm hopeful about it, just because it's Jim and I know he's smart enough to do it in an entertaining way. I mean, on paper Tough Crowd doesn't sound like a great idea but it was awesome and full of great moments because Colin knew how to steer the ship.

I get your point, but still.... look, i.m.o. jimmy is/was the funniest guy on the show, and i hope this doesn't come off as hating on him, but he really really reeeaaalllyyy sucks at interviews. he's just too grovelling; colin shits on this all the time, like jimmy trying to sound smart while in reality asking the most mondane questions. I even think on some level he's lying to himself about his interview-skills, subconsciously just wanting to meet "stars" and getting photos. i'm not even kidding. but please let's stop having a normal conversation in a o&a-forum...what's the world coming to!!

last thing: i heard the first 10 min will be stand-up, that might help.

For the first week. After that, his shotgun, tranny, shit and oral treats jokes will be as tired as ever. Jimmy is a comic who refuses to stay current for some reason, and unless that changes, he's doomed.

He's totally guilty of groveling and being overly impressed by talking to the big stahs, especially the Sabbath / Ozzy / Tony Iommi interviews. Yeah, the more I think about him doing strictly interviews... It's probably gonna be pretty rough, but we'll have to see. I don't think you're wrong about his motivations behind doing this sort of show either, it probably has a lot to do with filling up his photo collection / his own celebrity status. Yeah, back to flinging poop and screaming "faggot" at each other like normal.

maybe it will be more of a hangout instead, we'll have to see. let's just hope for the best... FAGGOT!

Am I the only one who likes Jim's interviews? I think his questions seem genuine, personal and interesting. But even in a worst case scenario at least he'll do a good job throwing funny lines in.

He's friendly and likable but his questions consistently suck. They tend to be childish and simple, and many of them are well known to anyone familiar with the guest.

I disagree, even on paper, Tough Crowd looks awesome.

Cancelling it is one of television's greatest failures. If it had gotten 3 more seasons, it would not only have found a big audience and become a ratings success, but it's DVD sales would have been phenominal as well. Finally, it could still be ongoing now, and it could always stay relevant by cycling comics in and out with newer unknowns and guests unrelated to the stand up business but with interesting insights elsewhere.

One of television's greatest failures.

Ah, your words are so sweet, but I'm afraid to eat them.

No, I'm with you, along with several others. Jimmy's interviewing skills will not keep him employed. I hope he can apply enough comedy to keep his gig awhile.

This. It's the perfect nexus for the week smoking, america protesting, NSA/FCC obsessed netizen citizen of the world. But they do "real journalism" b/c they take risks by putting Dennis Rodman in North Korea. You know, the country whose former dictator loved the Lakers.

Expecting people in Youtube comments to speak highly of something.

I've outlined above where you went wrong.

In order for this show to be successful, he's going to have to learn how not to blink the magna carta in morse code every few minutes.

You know their favourite comics are patton oswalt and louis ck

They're both really good comics. Just so happens there's a high correlation with being elitest and liking them... kind of a shame

Definetly definetly

This

I thought SJWs hated Paton Oswalt & Louis CK

it's hard to keep track of

I think they used to love Patton and hate Louie but maybe its the other way around now, I'm not sure.

Nah vice fans arent sjws vice fans are like the average reddit user that thinks smoking weed and being interested in space makes you a genius

Those were the same comments being made here about Jimmy a couple of months ago.

Yeah but i guess common enemy unites people.

Yeah but hipsters! SJWs! Honesty! something something oppressed white males! A bunch of other stuff the show told me was bad that may or may not be relevant in this context!

jeez these hipster fucks sure dont like jim lol

it's funny some of the shit theyre saying, it's true, but i'll #standwithjim on this one

Done. I'll support Jimmy and at least give him the benefit of the doubt.

wait, this is gonna be an interview show? jimmy sucks at interviewing): thats the LAST thing he's good at! anyone know what happened to the comedy central pilot?

It's time just to nerve gas Williamsburg. Spoiled "artists" living on Mommy and Daddy's dime. I fucking hate those people.

[deleted]

I spent two days there last week and it was miserable. Everyone wears the exact same outfit, and has ironic facial hair and/or wacky sunglasses. There's fuckin garbage everywhere too, the streets are filthy. And it's home of Danny Ross, to make it even worse.

And it's home of Danny Ross

Yeah, you mentioned the garbage everywhere

I won believe you if you say you didnt see someone with a cigarette pack rolled up in their sleeve

Williamsburg has been pretty over for like six years, bro.

Tell us more Troy Quan.

Your suspicions are correct. Everything was cooler before you knew about it and the people who know about stuff before you are assholes.

WAR ON HIPSTERS

VICE really does rule...and it's relevant. Jimmy has given us so much, kill the hipsters.

Posting a Chip comment is the least I can do.

Well that was fixed nicely...

EDIT: Also hipsters have a problem with Jim because honesty is their phobia... to have a comedian who is blatantly and unapologetically honest goes against their entire nature of covering up their problems from high school... I hope they slip on dog shit

I'm digging the hangers on that broad puking.

Easily the most unfunny human being on the planet. His entire shtick is so fake and forced. It's like "hmmmm, I'm not funny at all, so I'll act pissed off and talk about things that annoy me!" He is the cancer of comedy, just a rotting fleshy pustule that is stretching out his 15 minutes of fame.

Wow, that escalated quickly.

To be honest this makes me more likely to watch it

Reviews have been mixed.

being redundant: whyyy interviewss? WHY?

What were they saying? I'm a little curious, but I don't feel like wading through multiple pages of Chip jokes.

Just stupid biased shit. Someone said Jimmy was a buttlicking fan of George bush.

I bet all those queebs are giant bo burnham fans

honestly I can't get too mad at them. I used to hate Jim when I'd only seen his stand-up and TV appearances. You really have to listen to O&A or perhaps have watched Tough Crowd to some extent to realize what a gem he is.

Yeah, there's a strange artifice to his standup that disappears once you find out what he's like offstage. If you've only seen his standup, it almost comes off like he's playing a character.

Yeah for sure. I also think he overdoes the self deprecating thing when he's off the radio. I think he's funniest when he's destroying someone or something else.

Fuck that channel's fan base, they aren't only downvoting Jimmy but also Richard Linklater. Bunch of fucking fools.

Jimmy could turn it all around and succeed if he would just change some of his bad interviewer habits.

Jimmy needs to compare what he does and what Ronnie does in each situation, and change what he's doing to whatever Ronnie does.

Should he research a guest beforehand, or wing it and let comedy take it's course? Well, what does Ronnie do? He researches them extensively, and because of this, the guest becomes VERY comfortable with him even if they don't know him well. He also ALWAYS ends up asking a question so deep and stimulating to the guest that they remarks on how good of a question it is, then pause and think about it for a few seconds before replying: it's a good question they have never been asked before.

That's one example, but if Jimmy just talks to Ronnie about it, he could learn a whole hell of a lot.

Most people try too hard.... Ronnie is a confident alpha in an interview, no matter who the subject is. He is always in control. Jimmy always wants to make himself look like a shitty fanboy and he kills his credibility.

so true, ive never seen ronnie be in awe of someone, total alpha.

Agreed. But this commenter makes a good point:

Will Vice let Norton rant about how he LOVES that the NSA is spying on all US citizens again? He loves gloating about how Americans are getting what they deserve. 

Those are some droopy tits

These are the same kind of people who think that white straight males are the biggest threat to America, and that "alternative" comedy is where it's at. I think I'll save myself some time on this one and just like the video.

Of course hipsters aren't going to like Jimmy...

These are the same pretentious douches who'll line up to suck Jon Stewart's dick for doing all their political thinking for them. Then you have the lot of them who don't own televisions (b/c TV's are mainstream or some shit), so they have Vice & other hipster blogs. They have money yet all pretend to be these destitute struggling artists, who care about social issues, the environment, and every little thing because that's the "hip" thing to do (since we live in fucking bizaro world now!).

So, when you have guys like Jimmy (or O&A for that matter) being BRUTALLY honest and contradicting the actual status quo, hipsters will do what they've always done... conform with the rest of themselves. About as unique as every fucken Urban Outfitters around the world.

You forgot to say edgy you hack.

In that case, I forgot to use "shocking" too.

Vice really is the most commie, pinko, faggot media source around right now.

When interviewing black warlords in Africa, they took a nonjudgemental stance when they spoke of brutally killing innocent children as a pre-war ritual, and basically blamed white people for the state Africa is in.

When they made a documentary about militias in America, the first question they asked them (with a morally offended tone) "Is it true you guys are prejudiced towards black people?"

Another documentary on PTSD went out of its way to argue that veterans suffering with PTSD are nothing compared to the PTSD that blacks suffer every day, and that violent black neighborhoods are worse than Iraq.

Anyone who likes vice is a guilty white commie pinko.

There is plenty of news that caters to you grandpa.

You got him there whippersnapper. If only I could punch you twice in the mouth.

Awful attempt to reference the show and get upvotes

Jesse Ventura doesn't talk about commies or pinkos or race

It just doesn't work

You blew it

Jeez man, lighten up...

Hey guys, life is short, can't we all just get along?

Why don't you cry about it?

You just fell for a false flag operation, dummy.

white commie pinko.

so... a white red pinko. do they view the world through rose-tinted glasses as well?

Thanks for watching, I punched out watching the warlord stuff, not because it was brutal but for that reason. Their CEO is a blatant fucking liar (claimed he was in warzones) and their whole facade is how they do real journalism when what they're really producing is exoticist porn for the netizen elite.

Some of the 'reporters' or whatever they are or worse than others. The latest coverage of the ukraine situation has been nothing short of amazing. Maybe just watch the international shit. There really isn't anything worth reporting on in the US from a 'vice' angle anyway imo.

Where did people get this idea that everyone had to like what we liked? I like Norton and the show itself when it was the way it used to be. I'm not going to waste my time crusading against people who don't like what I'm into. They don't get it, or don't like it. Fuck it. Like everyone has to think alike.

nah man ant and jim fans need you to like them!!!! all of jims fans act like his parents saying how great he is and how everyone should like him, get a grip.

Oh, that rules. I haven't subbed since Sopranos ended, normally I wouldn't sub for just one show but the VICE show seems pretty good.

edit: By that, I mean the news show that's already on HBO^

we all did, and I stand by my statement

Hey guys, life is short, can't we all just get along?

Why don't you cry about it?

so true, ive never seen ronnie be in awe of someone, total alpha.
