I've never heard of this guy, he looked awful from his pictures, he was holding something that was implying he was a "white girl", which was maybe half funny the first time someone did that ironically 6 years ago, but what exactly did he steal?
He takes tweets and instagrams and posts them as his own without attribution which would be bad but would go unnoticed but he got a development deal at comedy central and a lot of the people he stole from are actual comedy writers so there was a bit of a kerfuffle on twitter about it. He's also got a book deal and a fashion line because this world is ending and idiots rule.
i'm kind of interested to see just where he levels off in terms of success being a complete and total obvious thief.
maybe it's a morbid sort of amusement, but i want to see if idiots really do rule, and if creating a name on total bullshit is all you really need to do in life. i guess it worked for perez hilton, right?
Hold up! People didn't know this was what he was doing? Did they think one guy made up 95% of internet jokes? There wasn't one shitty meme that this shithead didn't repost.
He was in a weird rap group called Team Facelift that I liked, but I saw him on MTV or FUSE once and he had waaaay too much confidence, he came off as a pompous douche. Fuck him.
I hope you're joking. This guy literally just re-posts funny tweets/tumblr posts/instagram pictures. That's all he does. And now he has 6m followers, makes a living off of it and just got signed to CAA and has a pilot in the works with comedy central and a development deal. All based off of him just re-posting other peoples' shit. I've looked through his stuff and the only original content he posts is dumb pictures of his fat ass drinking this Rose that he's selling.
I'm in the Opie hating game not the instagram star hating game.
Opie was front and center on THE place great comics used to go to hang out and bust balls. It was impossible to avoid him if you wanted to hear funny people.
Some douche on the internet is just that. Easily avoidable. And even if he had gotten on comedy central that's easily avoidable too. That channel hasn't been very funny in years.
And either way, some guy copying and pasting doesn't hold a candle in terms of hateability to tits's toothy retard grin as he trains his camera on people and waits for them to do something that makes him youtube money.
I think its fucked up if hes cashing in on it but isnt that what half of instrgram and twitter is? People re-posting memes. I do hate him now that i know who he is but at least he was found out and gotten rid of right away, Gregg Hughes continues to cash in on other people's comedy.
I mean, it's more than retweeting or whatever. Alot of why goes on is either retweeting or each person trying to come up with their twist on the meme. This guy screenshots other ppl's tweets and crops out their username. It's scumbaggery and I hate seeing someone get rewarded for it.
Yeah but Opie was pretty good about crediting people, and it was always obvious when they were reading off of Paltalk. Ant did it too, and the Paltalk people enjoyed it and competed to get their lines on the air. In fact, it's got nothing to do with what this guy is doing.
I've met him a bunch of times in real like five years ago, before he was really this social networking sensation and was just sort of a nightlife figure. What always struck me was that he was really charismatic and fun in person, but not especially funny. And I never understood how that translated into his twitter and instagram years later. And now I know!

I can't stand that guy.

This guy fucking stinks.

It's too bad he can't come up with his own material and match auschWITZ with real comedians.

This! I didn't follow the guy, but reposting shit on the internet, isn't that what every single person on social media does?

Opie is way more hateable than some wannabe schmuck on instagram.

2 callmesnake13 2015-08-18
And it comes full circle when you realize that Team Facelift had Sandy Kane in their video
1 RearNakedGrope 2015-08-18
Ha, nice.

Very hateable, but nothing close to as annoying as Tits.

Nathan for You is pretty funny

Comedy Central deal is toast. And not only does he just re-post other people's shit, but he doesn't even give credit. He's the jerk of all jerks.

OPIE crowdsourced Paltalk for years?
Seriously, are some of you retarded?

Has the worm got on his soapbox yet about this? I've been calling this hack out for years, hurt my heart when Col fondly mentioned FJ one time
