My biggest take from the Jimmy AMA - Opie & Jim have already had a "VERY BIG FIGHT" behind the scenes since the new show was created.

What the fuck is wrong with Opie? Can someone get this self destructive fuck medicated, I'm serious.
He's a millionaire, he has a healthy wife and kids, he works 4 hours a day, he owns a penthouse in NYC, etc. This man has so much going for him, yet he can't help but find something to be angry about.
What the fuck is his problem?

He's an autistic asshole. Everyone that works with Opie seems to have a problem with him. Steven Carr is the only one I think that didn't say what a piece of shit he is.

And look how he ended up.

He had to be the boss because Anthony was unwilling, so I don't understand why anyone's surprised that people dislike those in charge of them. And if you take a look at Anthony you can see a trail of relationships he's destroyed, too.

My supervisor and i get along great. Just like most other people have had ones theyve liked. Some bosses are assholes and some bosses are easy to get along with. The really good ones are able to effectively manage as well as be likeable.

It wouldn't make sense for Ant to lead the show then Opie would have no roll.
23 ucfgavin 2015-04-24
people argue and fight...it sounds like he learned from the ant scenario though and actually talked through it.
21 Leeham721 2015-04-24
The problem is Opie's history of being a dick, which incites more arguments than necessary.
He snapped his fingers at interns like dogs. Interns who they apparently milk for on-air material and otherwise spend no time with. Interns who they pawn off on staff members who do all pre show-work so Opie (and Ant and Jim) can run away the second the show ends.
6 ucfgavin 2015-04-24
oh i agree with you 100% there, and chances are it was probably an argument built around his insecurities. that part is never going to go away, he is too old and too habitual for that :o i'm just saying it sounds like he at least approached that situation better than any situation with ant.
2 Knightscribe 2015-04-24
I'd bet because even Opie's illiterate, brain-dead ass knows that if Jim said fuck it and left the show, so would the majority of any remaining listeners. Even animals understand self-preservation.
9 I-take-beast-shits 2015-04-24
Opie reminds me of that "guy" everyone knows who'd always pick fights when he was drunk. The only difference is Opie isn't fucking drunk, he's just a sober asshole who fails to compromise or see things beyond his own shitty thought process.

Let's face it we've all enjoyed the hell out of his autistic asshole-ness at times [before Ant left].

For some context, here's the exact quote jimmy said:
5 PepsiColaRapist 2015-04-24
also he mentioned it awhile ago on ants show. i dont even follow half the shit this subreddit obsesses over so i cant think this is breaking news.
7 blackirishlad 2015-04-24
i'd say you could calm down based on that quote. he didn't make it sound all that terrific. big fights happen when you are in close proximity with someone constantly. it got resolved.
it would be more telling if there were many more smaller ones and they weren't resolved. i think that might have been the case with ant.
-3 Die-rector 2015-04-24
the problem this subr has is they dont care about anything Jim said afterwords. They just say, Opie fought with Jim. even though Jim said its been resolved.
2 greggjilla 2015-04-24
Don't want to sound biased (read: a FAGGOT) because we share the same name, but Jimmy sounds like a big baby (suuure) sometimes also. Takes two people to argue.
Oh well, time to go watch some rich guy with tits talk about wanting to have tits and stuff.
10 JuiceBusters 2015-04-24
Whoa whoa... if someone talks about getting boners let's stay on that!
It's gotta be enraging being the Cap'n and knowing full-well (as do all) that Bobo is far more entertaining, Dennis Falcone is what Opie could never be, Anthony was the draw and that Mike Bocchetti and Sandy Kane's show was 10X more entertaining than Opie spending 2 hours replaying it until he could find 'boners' to talk about.
9 Holzmann 2015-04-24
It's really all just speculation at this point. I think we're going to have to wait for Opie to get divorced to see him really unravel. Then we'll find out how much of what we all hate can be attributed to his general mental state and how much to the people who surround him.
8 netryeder 2015-04-24
"That's the bit"
7 hautebird 2015-04-24
tss that's what Opie said when Secretariat asked him "what's dis thing in my mouth?"
2 CrazyLarry42 2015-04-24
Home run Chippah. No really, think about it, that's a good one.
7 CookieHaid 2015-04-24
I heard that Opie stomped on Jimmy's hat.
3 GleepGlorpFloopdedoo 2015-04-24
And then shoved potato flakes in his mouth.
5 Produceher 2015-04-24
Your biggest takeaway is that you want to have a problem with Opie. Plenty of partners have big fights once or twice a year. Put on your big boy pants and figure out why you can't adjust your happiness around your own life. As Opie told Anthony. He's not your problem. Enjoy your weekend.
4 OpieOpieOpie 2015-04-24
Because Anthony and Jim are known for being super happy.
4 opieanthonyjim 2015-04-24
Perhaps they both were involved in the reason behind the fight?
4 Patmcpsu 2015-04-24
Jim's response lines up perfectly with the 13Euclud post... http://i.imgur.com/TyBp6FY.jpg

I would love to know why the fight started

If you only work 4 hours a day, it would be hard not to find something to get angry about. That's a whole lot of free time to fill. As someone who only works five hours a day (except I'm not a millionaire alas), I can attest.

Jim would answer the call. Nonetheless, fuck Opie

Why is this Opie's problem? It takes two people to have a fight. We've already seen what a baby Anthony is when it comes to disagreements. Jimmy said in his AMA regarding his fight that it was Opie who picked up the phone to call him and sort it out. Sounds like he's the only grown up amongst them.
9 I-take-beast-shits 2015-04-24
Because Opie is always the common denominator when it comes to implosions and behind the scene arguments on the show. Here's a saying that fits him perfectly:
If you run into an asshole one day, you ran into an asshole.
If you run into assholes all day, you’re the asshole.
Opie is the asshole.
1 thebudgetgamer 2015-04-24
It's easy to be the likeable one when you avoid all confrontations. Someone has to be a hard ass when you're running a business.
-6 CowsAreCunts 2015-04-24
And you are a common idiot. WHOOP DEE FUCKING DOOO!!!! Look in the mirror. THAT is the asshole my friend. Right There!!!
You are just some asshole on the internet making up non issues about some guy who's life is 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times better than yours,
Go FUCK YOURSELF YOU PIECE OF SLIMY DOGSHIT!!!!!!!!!!
PERIOD!!!!!
-12 kentrel 2015-04-24
You stole that "saying" from Joe Rogan when he was describing an SJW. It's not even a saying. What kind of a terrible saying takes two sentences to say it.
If Opie is the "common denominator" with fighting, which he isn't by the way, Ant is, why isn't he the common denominator when it comes to talking things through? When has Anthony ever picked up the phone to talk through an issue? He'll hear third hand that someone has said something about them, rant on his show and then never talk to them again.
-6 OpieOpieOpie 2015-04-24
Because that would mean Opie did/does something right, and that's not allowed in this sub.
-1 CowsAreCunts 2015-04-24
It should be rule number one!!!

Because money equals happiness? Why didn't all these people that hate him so much jump ship?
