Fair point. I get upset because Ant, Jimmy, all the comics, this whole community, which is about comedy, gets confused and crossed over with what comes off to me as a deep ugly political bitterness. I specifically resent how people convince themselves that one has anything to do with the other. They're lying to themselves and I have to listen to it.
Political bitterness? You're the only one here who reads as completely and utterly bitter over someone's politics. I don't see anyone around here getting this upset when someone like David Cross or Patton Oswalt shares a political opinion.
Admittedly that's a tough comparison. Cross makes me sick, and so does Patton during the Bush years. As for "this upset", I'm not sure what you're comparing that to.
Once again, what I am upset about is that Gavin is an angry political guy first and foremost, not a comic, but I read countless posts saying how he is so "hilarious".
He's a bitter asshole cunt. The nerve of any of you to compare him to any of the comics that have come through the Opie and Anthony show. The god damned nerve of it. Fuck yourself.
It's pretty fucking ridiculous to reduce their political opinions to "bitterness" simply because you don't agree with them. Gavin is consequent with what he believes and writes, so is Anthony. They are both successful and seem to be far from bitter in many aspects of their lives, including their political views. They seem pretty disengaged even if they are interested to hold a grudge or be bitter about things. Nice try with the hate tho.
Sure. They're in the entertainment business, and they can only be so candid. What reveals the bitterness I'm talking about is their fans. The most hardcore of fans, the ones who have the most zeal for them, are the most revealing.
We're supposed to place responsibility on them for what others express? That makes no sense. Anthony has no business curtailing the more extreme part of his fanbase.
I'm not really reducing his politics to bitterness. I'm calling bullshit on the people who see his politics as comedy. These people see the union of the two as comedy, and revel in it the way one would revel happily in comedy, and I'm saying that perceived happiness is bullshit, and that it's actually bitterness. Bitterness that the manifestor wants you to believe is an appreciation of humor.
i know what you mean, they do both cross the cringe line, but i think it's because they're both fueled by that compulsion to call out what they think is false
The difference is I'm not an entertainer. I'm not trying to be lumped in with Patrice Colin Louis etc.
If a Colin Quinn or an Anthony Cumia wants to rage against the machine while considering themselves a comic, I'm ok with that. And I'm ok with ........whatever it is that Gavin is or does.
But don't act like Gavin is in the same category of entertainer as Anthony or Patrice or Colin. He was never particularly funny, never intended to be particularly funny, and he sure as shit never earned his comedy stripes.
I don't like it when political zeal is mistaken for humor. It's deluded at the least and dangerous at worst.
Oh, and they also happen to be the ones I have to hear the most from, given the volume of posts/tweets. I'll only run into an Ant or a Gavin tweet every so often. But here on the O&A board, it's inundated with this "GAVIN IS OUR SAVIOUR" politically motivated horse shit. So, it's just a matter of exposure.
Do you realize that you're saying EXACTLY what opie defenders say?
And don't call it quirks, don't try to minimize it. There's a coalescing nest of extremely angry and driven ideology that is very happy to ride the coattails of a lot of funny people.
Okay? But they're funny, and Opie isn't. That's the entire point of human relationships. You take the good with the bad.
If Anthony makes me laugh really fucking hard and I disagree with his politics, I'm taking the good with the bad. If Opie has never made me laugh, AND he has annoying personality traits, I don't listen to his show.
For example, if you always have a great time with your friend, but you disagree with their political views. You really gonna bitch to them every fucking day about it? Or are you going to be a fucking adult and decide to either 1. not be friends with them, or 2. live with it and deal with it, because everybody has a shitty opinion and that's what human beings do.
Bitching online is not going to change a deep rooted opinion that somebody has. Once you go so far down the rabbit hole of cynicism, there is no way of coming back. Nothing is changing. He's a funny motherfucker who doesn't care for the blacks. Let the fucker live.
What's sillier than going through life playing Devil's Advocate to get noticed? It's not really your opinion on this that's frustrating, just the fact that I looked and this is what you do in every thread. Going against the consensus in every thread. Someday people will finally take notice of what a special child you truly are.
Examples? You might be right but I think I've done a good job covering it up. When you say "I looked and", are there really that many threads? I challenge you to prove I'm a contrarian poster.
In that thread about the old program director that owned the shit out of Opie. You "hate radio geeks and the zest they have for the industry"? Wtf? You hate that there was a pretty consensus opinion about him that you couldn't have fit into any other way. You're just an attention whore pseudo-indigo child trying to get noticed. Mommy didn't parade you around enough in front of the neighbors.
Terrible offering by you. I hate that because I have come to hate how Opie tries to force the only thing he knows onto the show: the "Business of Radio". Fucking yuck. Denny, Lionel, anything that isn't standup comic related, he forces in because it's what he knows. It's boring and it sucks, and NO ONE who tuned in because the show was funny finds that shit funny or entertaining in any way, but he does it because it prevents him from becoming obsolete on his own show. Because he knows he has NOTHING else. That's why I hate it.
Way to go against the grain. Gavin is awesome and what he says is in line with most of what this reddit spouts, but some faggot has caught on that he's become popular enough to hate on. That's all this is about.
And now you're acting like people look at Gavin as a deity to make your post look even more against the grain. You're a desperate faggot trying to get noticed. Go do something that actually makes a difference to anyone.
No, like everyone else I don't want anything you have to offer. You're a pseudo-indigo child and your mommy didn't parade you enough around the neighbors. You're never going to establish yourself as unique in the world.
I would like to stomp on his faggot cunt beard and break his faggot cunt mouth and break his dumb nigger face. Hearing that crack would make me unbelievably happy.
The unfunny part is the most important here. If this douche had an ounce of wit or charisma behind any of the horseshit he was spouting it would at least be entertaining. Like when Kurt Metzger goes on one of his psychotic rants.

Don't be so intentionally dense. Ant has been hilarious on the radio for... oh fuck quantifying it, he's legendary for being funny on the radio.
You know perfectly well the difference between a funny radio guy and a guy like...well...like Gavin. So what in the fuck are you even talking about.
