A good example of Opie's vocabulary...

6  2015-06-24 by DoubleGuns

An exact quote from today's show...

"He was good, Colin was really good in the movie too, Mike Birbiglia was really good, er, Bill Hader as the love interest was really good ...and LeBron James was in this movie and he's fucking good. He's a good actor. I was telling the guys before the show, when you see athletes in these movies, their eyes give it away, they're not attached the scene whatsoever, I don't know what it is, I don't know what they look at. Their eyes are dead in these scenes usually but LeBron James is well engaged with his scenes and really, really ...really good ...Really good actor."

B1 level English learners have a deeper vocabulary than Opie.

There's a thing.

Opie's alma mater is the single hardest SUNY to get into.

He's illiterate. He's confused by numbers.

My verbal score was perfect, and my math was damn close.

To get into a school that's only a little more selective than Opie's, I had to call in a favor from a fucking three-time Pulitzer Prize winner, and that barely worked.

I was rejected across the board by the "good schools" because my application was lacking in rich-kid activities. I did black dude sports and punk rock shit. I wasn't "well-rounded."

Opie was so poor he ate cement-dust sandwiches. Wasn't he? His home was a crazy, isolated, tax evading cult. Wasn't it?

He wouldn't know a guy, would he?

SO HOW THE FUCK

SUNY Geneseo was mediocre when Opie went to it, he said. Its reputation has increased in the last 60 years.

I thought Binghamton was the "elite" SUNY. You have to take a test to get into it.

You sound like Opie, you get that right?

The mexican guy who sweeps the floor at Walmart is more engaging and has a better grasp on the English language.

I got an idea. Juan and Jim in the morning!

Juan knows like 2 words...

(those words are HOLD and ON, and he uses them constantly.)

The foreigners who work the gas stations here in Texas all know Spanish, plus English and the language they speak back in their desert caves. I feel embarrassed as a Texan I don't even know Spanish. Off topic completely, just thought I'd share....

Why the fuck should a proud Texan have to learn Beaner anyways? :D

The ones up here in the NE are pretty cool, most can at least understand you. I don't mind them, at least they come here to work and make thier own way, we got Americans who are too lazy to even do that.

Hold on hold on, Lady Di wants in badly.

I tried working but I cannot stay sober that long and faked an injury so I can keep up my social program leeching ways.
