What's your solutions to Ant being shunned by the pack?
0 2014-12-05 by [deleted]
This fucking shit is so "high school". It's just getting worse over time. So back in high school if you did something the group of friends who hungout together didn't like, then all of them have to exclude you. If anybody tries to be on your side, they'd also get shunned, so they have to go with the pack. That's all part of why Opie has to shut the fuck up about anything to do with Ant. He can't "stand with Ant" because the pack of old comedian friends will shun him as well.
So pretty much you've got to be politically correct or else this will happen to you. This idea of having "friends", you've got to all get along and all do what they like and be like them. It's so fucking fake this idea of all trying to get along with nobody disagreeing.
The only way Ant can get away from this shit is to just move to Europe. You can tell this ongoing old friends not telling him straight about stuff, is bringing him down. He needs to just say, listen the show isn't doing good.. i'm taking a year off and going on vacation over there and relocate the compound. Fuck these assholes with their teen shit. Take a year off and regroup over there. If he just moves to another state this shit 'll continue to go on. Over there, he's off the radar and this teen mentality won't bug him. Just the being cooped up in the house for work and time off is getting to him. He needs to just get away from it all for good.
This is just so teen this shit going on now. Get over it ya guys, opie and anthony don't get along and that's reality. It's not some fantasy world where everybody agrees. So that's my solution to his problems. They're not gonna get better. He's basicly going to lose all the old comedian friends he used to have because of this issue. So he needs to say fuck them and just move over there. Fuck these guys with their juvenile behavior.

I feel like you had one good point to make and then just babbled about nonsense for four paragraphs. Ant moving to Europe to do the show is just about the dumbest thing I've ever read on this subreddit.

Am I the only one who was disappointed by the lack of Chip in this post.

This must be the only subreddit where the last paragraph of long posts gets read as much as the first.

That's the only thing that could've saved it

Or at least, put more funny people on your show. At least 2-3 per week. It might reduce your image as exhausting angry hermit guy, and make people actually want to have you around when there's something going on.

holy shit i cant believe this is a thing, its like some chick not being invited to a party, who gives a shit?

This was four paragraphs of meaningless stupidity. You took one stupid point and ran with it.
The situation with Anthony isn't a "high school friend group" like you described it, at all. Most comics like Anthony and have done his show. The one who doesn't is Bill Burr, and that has nothing to do with Opie and Ant's relationship.
And then you say Ant's solution to the problem with Bill and the problem of his show not working out is to move to Europe for a while? What the fuck does that even mean? Where did that come from? What does Europe have to do with anything? If he "just moves to another state the shit will continue"? What shit? Why would it continue if he only left to another state?
You should be fucked in the mouth for writing this.

This picture is just depressing now: http://www.aarongoodmanphotography.com/gallery/large/fhmopieandanthony.jpg
Two of them dead, one fired, one has abandoned the show. Although now I love Vos and Bawby even more now.

He should buy a ticket and heckle the Patrice show
2 Jockel76 2014-12-05
He should do what Robert Downey jr. did and go blackface.

Anthony needs to make a list of the people he thinks are shunning him and call them, one by one, and have it out with each one of them, in an attempt to get back "in" with whoever he wants to get back in with.
Or he should stop whining, embrace his "exile" status, and let shit fly.
No passive-aggressiveness followed by bitching about things after the fact, and no having Keith make the calls; if he cares enough to bitch about being shunned, he needs to care enough to take steps to get off the "pay no mind" list.

I know this doesn't do anyone any good but yesterday for the first time in 15 years of listening to him I felt legitimately bad for Anthony. Damn. In all the ways I thought the show would go out I never imagined it would be this depressing.

He must call off this weeks KKK meeting

I said this in the other post, but Anth can't have it both ways - the convenience of not driving to work and keeping everything the same. These celebrities and even half of the comedians aren't friends of his, they're colleagues. That means he's got to be in New York more, meeting up with them, staying in touch. He can't be cooped up in long island all the time, or count on Keith the Cop making a phone call to Chris Rock.

Downvote for "Anth".
0 JCP_1975 2014-12-05
Down vote for referring to Ant as "Anth".
-1 jakdak 2014-12-05
Seriously, the nickname/abbreviation is "Ant".
Never in 20 years of listening to these guys have I heard anyone refer to him as "Anth"

You guys aren't getting the bit!

How is he being shunned?
Not being invited to the Patrice thing? I don't like it, but you can see why.

Oh I don't know, how about everyone goes to John Sahag for the day and chats it out over a styling and latte.
