This example is why Opie stinks the most.

Every single comment chosen by Opie is a bomb. I find that this encapsulates Opie's lack of humor and cleverness.

This is the worst video of Gregg "Opie" Hughes. You cannot find one worse.

It highlights his illiteracy, lack of timing, lack of chemistry, ignorance to anything remotely funny (in fact he actively stops it), hacky-ness, douchy-ness, and when someone thinks differently than he does he channels a down-syndromed preteen girl. Hopefully he dies soon.

Also shows how everyone on staff, even racist Anthony, has had enough experience with black people to be able to understand how to properly read the comments. However, Opie and his upperclass backround make him sound like Richard Pryor doing a "white guys do this" bit while reading the comments.

he reads worse than a nervous 4th grader reading in front of the class.

You think this is bad? This idiot actually read his brother's Myspace profile out loud on the air for a few minutes before realizing it was completely bombing. It got really uncomfortable. Jimmy and Anthony didn't even acknowledge the last minute or so of it.

EDIT: Found it!

Wow, never heard that. Those awful fake "ht ht ht ht ht ht ht ht ht ht ht ht" laughs come out of nowhere when he gets desperate and realizes it's all crashing down right in front of him. Then they vanish just as fast. Then he gets all sullen.

Idea-wise, that was like something a Stand By Me character would come up with to waste time when they're bored. It's right there with superhero arguments and picking wings off of bugs.

Oof, was that awful. The two of these back to back sure do make for a real sizzle reel.

Between the two, clips, he must take nearly 30 stabs at merely identifying a funny thing that someone else has said, and he misses every time. Closest he got was Jimmy saying one he pulled was his favorite, but it takes Jimmy's additional context to even make it sensical - not even funny.

Oh my God, that one that started "He said that shit..." felt like it went on forever.

Opie was put on the Pay No Mind list with a bullet. They ignored EVERYTHING he said.

It's amazing that a man who spends his entire career around funny people has no concept of funny. How do you get zeros reading World Star comments out loud? Especially when they're about a guy you know?!

Every time I hear him brutalize the moment by trying to read "lmafo-o-o-o-o" I remember why I'll never ever like Opie.

Something about his insufferable fucking voice and the way he reads that just renews my hatred for him. He fucking ruins everything man.

Underrated aspect of that video is Opie's astonishment and jealousy in regards to the fact that Anthony's video made it to the front page of World Star.

Non-retarded human beings would never do voices that way, because their brains wouldn't think that way in the first place.

I have no idea exactly what's going on in his brain before that....shit...comes out of his mouth, and he has no idea that he sounds like somebody just asked him to do an impression of an alien race from another dimension and he only has 1 second to come up with something.

What a clueless, floundering ass.

It also highlights his bouts of illiteracy. I saw that world star thread, yeah they talk ridiculously but it was not THAT fucking hard to read, especially not for a communications major graduate.

I love whenever Sam just motherfucks him. I think he realises what's happening but he doesn't have the balls or wit to address it.

Ribs hurt tuh-DAY!!!

I was going to say this isn't the worst, but I can't make it through it, so I guess that means I can't debate it.

Give him a little credit, he actually tried being "one of the guys" for a whole five minutes without referring to himself as the Opester.
