Opie has this childlike idea of what Kaufman was doing. Piss off your audience. Just piss them off. Don't do it in an interesting way. Just annoy them. That's all he seems to understand about it. No creativity to it. No reveling in the fun of fooling the audience. It's like if someone's hero was Sam Kinison, so they went on stage and spent an hour just doing the scream.
Kaufman never admitted to the audience he was doing a bit. If they didn't get the bit he just kept it going. He preferred that they didn't get it. Kaufman never broke down to criticism and said, "That's the bit you stupid FUCK!"
With that said while I like Andy Kaufman and think he was funny I completely get why other people don't.
He's taking the piss, intentionally making bad videos on purpose to piss people off now. These replies are the icing on the cake, "damn bruh that's not nice" is not something he'd say otherwise, that's Bobo-level stupidity. It's a game he's playing because he's upset people bashed How to Chain Your Dragon and the first Loves the Internet One. Now he's trying to "own the hate" by being moronic and more terrible than ever before. Opie is a fucking cunt.
the whole "all you have to do is not watch" argument is infuriating.
Its like a morbidly obese Filipino housewife wearing only a hot pink thong covered with cooking oil all over her body walking into city hall and saying "all you have to do is not watch".
He wants people to watch. Otherwise he wouldnt be promoting the vids so much. Thing is I did watch. Once. And then I tell him they are retarded. Then I report the vids and hope they get taken down.
If you don't follow him you wont see the promotion. You false flag his videos? Are you autistic bro? He isn't harming you by making yt videos no matter how dumb they are.
He's the same guy who's built a career in huge part on criticizing what other people do (Jocktober, any YouTube videos they watch, etc.)
No one's saying he's harming them; they're saying that if he dishes it out he can take it too (and in fairness to Opie, he's at least responding to people, and not in a particularly bitch way).
muahahahahaha I want that to be the sidebar so bad, oh the lulz it would engender. Also, way to one up me, jerk (I get the assist on that one though, ok bruh?) Ice CUUUUUUUuuuuuu!

Phase 1 of Opie Jocktober has begun.
Phase 2 will begin when he closes the comments on his youtube videos.

I like that he tried to reason with Opie.

Best part of that is "you're not Kaufman".

my favourite part is that ZipZop gets more likes on his comments than the social media genius The Opster

Opie just got killed by zip zop.

Opie has no idea how to react to a rational argument. So his only response is "huh".
18 JMueller2012 2014-08-25
"Welcome to the cool table" next Opester shirt. Callin' it

Not me, I'm a faggot.

Isn't that the argument people use when someone gets offended by a comedy or radio bit?
3 ricardo_von_nicht 2014-08-25
Ia m not offended. I am not getting him fired. Doesnt mean I have to like it and not see him in a bad light.
5 iaknet 2014-08-25
Then just leave a comment or dislike it. Trying to get it taken down is the same tactic O&A fans would shit on "SJWs" for using.

Opester is definitely reading this sub.
6 AntsCamera 2014-08-25
He could be watching game of thrones for show prep instead of fucking with twitter.
No time. My wife does fucking nothing, and after my abusive 4 hour shift I have to watch kids, while my wife fucks Bam and gets manicures.
5 AzraelApollyon 2014-08-25
Judging by his responses....He has to know its over. He has to.

To keep things fair, you should also put together a collection of Opie's best responses.
