someone's got hammers to drop

I'd forgotten all about droppin' hammers. My life was better for it. Goddamn you for reminding me and fuck Opie for coming up with such hack nonsense to begin with.

them coke sweats

Why the fuck would ant just let his chick hang out at the studio. Was he that fucking whipped he couldn't tell her to go home or do her own thing. That is bound to strain any relationship and I don't blame opie for being pissed at her. Even worse is ant thinks opie was being an ass for hating her. I'd hate any friends gf too if she hung around 24/7, especially at work. Nobody should put up with that shit.

I wouldn't be surprised if she had a great coke hookup. That joined-at-the-hip shit often boils down to junkie behavior.

Is that Sadam Hussien's son on the left?

The problem with this comparison is that Lennon and McCartney were both geniuses. Opie doesn't even achieve Ringo status.

Or Yoko

Yoko alienated everyone in the band and fed into John's worst "artiste" impulses.

The only beef Opie had with Ant's girl was that Opie's girlfriend was still friends with Ant's ex-wife. How that causes a man to openly mistreat the long term girlfriend of his closest business partner and (at that point) friend is mystifying. I completely understand why Ant stopped wanting to be around Opie after this, it was incredibly shitty behavior. Opie is an unmitigated douche.

And after realizing what a gossipy bitch I am, I'm gonna go drown myself.

"mistreat"

I don't know about where you work, but if my girlfriend showed up to where I worked every day just to hang out and keep me from doing actual work, my co-workers would be pretty pissed off.

You work with this dude every day and go on double dates together. Then some woman shows up and starts fucking your buddy, a married man. Suddenly you're not talking to your friend even at work anymore because this woman is always with him, demanding his attention.

I mean it's a shitty stupid thing to openly disrespect someones girl no matter what, but it's also shitty to bring your girlfriend to your work. That's exactly what John Lennon did.

Wikipedia:

"Miles also thought Ono's continual presence in the studio during the latter part of the Beatles' career put strain on Lennon's relationship with the other band members. George Harrison verbally assaulted her after she took one of his chocolate digestive biscuits without asking."

"Ono's intrusive presence was a source of rancour to Harrison, in particular, after his and Lennon's shared experimentation with LSD and Indian spirituality – two experiences that McCartney had approached with a level of caution – had united the pair since 1965.[22]"

People love shitting on Opie, but consider if your girlfriend's best friend got cheated on and dumped by her boyfriend, who happens to be your best friend and business partner, having to come home every night and get bitched at about how you should quit your well paying job, etc. it's bound to put some serious strain on your relationship with your friend.

That girlfriend went on a cruise with Ant's ex wife paid for out of the 40k stolen from Ant's bank account. If Opie stood by his bitch after pulling a cunt move like that I'd hate him too.

He's said before that he regrets staying with her for so long.

Well as long as he said that everything's fine.

And then your best friend and business partner's new girlfriend needs to be at your workplace with you all the time.

I can see how it makes it awkward when your friend and girlfriend are in the same room. But Opie would treat Ant's girl like shit even when Opie's gf was nowhere to be seen. Can you fathom doing that to your good friend? Testing someone's girlfriend like shit in front of them is asking to either be punched or written off, and Ant, being a conflict-avoiding ninny, went for the latter

Hasn't Opie also said that he knew that he was just as unhappy in this long term relationship? He said they were both miserable at the time. Yet Opie was still somehow whipped by this girl he knew he had no future with? Seems pretty inconsistent, but then again, that's Opie.
