A fan of a radio personality is a sincere autist. The lurker who takes a picture of him without his knowledge so he can get support for his hatred on a nearly defunct subreddit= perfectly functional member of society. Projecting much?
Hating Ron and Louis CK is where this sub gets it completely wrong. It gives credit to people who say 'they hate everything' or 'they hate or the sake of hating'
Any Louis hate has been a direct result of the changes in his public image over the years. I still think his specials are funny enough, but you can't deny that fame has changed him significantly. Just listen to the older interviews and the last couple of interviews he did with O&A, completely different guy. I don't hate him, but I like new Louis less than old Louie; but his shift isn't nearly as offensive or transparent as the Amy Shumer one, she gets the lionshare of the shitting on.
Ronnie I just don't know enough about, I don't know him I don't know what he does.
You should try and listen to some Ron and Fez clips, Ron is truly fucking brilliant. One of my favorites is from when Fezzie was still pretty active on the show. He was upset because Sarah Palins daughter called her friend a faggot. Fez wanted Palin to apologize and punish her for it. Ron was laying back asking questions about why Fez was mad. Fezzie said the show will probably be canceled because of ratings anyway, and Ron replied "6 million viewers faggot." Ron and Fez is a slow burn, but I prefer it over even the best O&A years. Ron is still spitting out one liners everyday even now. Last week he randomly said ""I believe in slut shaming, because they were born with original sin between their legs. Where their dicks should be."
Eh I disagree. I don't mind Gail being a bit of a laugh track. Hicks is lobvable, and it's fun to hear Ron beat on him. It's just different, not terrible. I'm sure Ron loves working with his daughter , and talking about music and art with someone who actually talks back. He is still funnier than anyone one else in radio.
i remember there was this ron n fez clip, ron was fucking around in the hallway when the show went on air, fez was having a panic attack because he had to do the show alone. after 10 mins or so hicks finally found ron and ron continue to shit on hicks for for 20 mins cause he didnt back fez up, and that hicks was acting a faggot and kept apolozging. all the rnf fans acted like its some radio gem but its just like those times when opie was preaching about kidsnowaday to the interns
How could you not see that he was making great radio out of a screw up? Not only that, but he was absolutely correct. Any other radio platform would fire your ass if you went on-air without the (actual) host of the show. Listen to t again, Ron was half lecturing and half busting balls.
To me, the CK stuff is worse not because he got famous and changed, but because he was always this wannabe artsy weirdo and the image he portrayed during his stand-up was a phony character he was playing. And now that he is famous he doesn't have to pretend to be that guy anymore.
That, to me, is much worse. I can handle people changing. It happens. But to go back and realize that this dude who you really enjoyed and who always seemed relatable was being insincere stings much worse.
I don't see that period as him being insincere at all. Sure he was always an artsy fartsy type, but that doesn't mean he couldn't also be a dark comedic mind as well. Look at Todd Solonz, one of the most indie filmmakers out there, but Happiness is a depraved comedy masterpiece.
How I see Louie is that when he went through the collapse of his marriage that fueled his darker sensibilities, lowered his inhibitions, and made him focus on his stand-up. Now that he's reached a certain peak he's had the flexibility to branch out and do other things that he always wanted to but didn't have the luxury to. I do see it as just him changing his lifestyle and hs comedy changing with him. But the fed up, going through a divorce Louie that we loved doesn't feel like a put on, and its not contradicted by what he's become.

Mostly dimwits throwing around words like autistic, cuckold, and sjw.
Faggots.

Ron was brilliant.
Ron and Fez was arguably the greatest radio show ever.
Ron and his daughter and that suck-up sycophant Hicks, is ear poison.

His standup is still fucking funny. I don't care how alternative his fans are, his standup is still great.
1 Sudley 2016-05-23
Yeah, his standup is still solid. Wouldn't say as funny as Chewed up or Hilarious, but still really good compared to other stuff out there.
1 Lyle_D_Chipperson 2016-05-23
Well at least fame didn't stop him from antisocial behavior like jerking off in front of Garfunkel and Oates.

Is this the famous place in The Sopranos last scene?
2 VeritablyClean 2016-05-23
Ron is still funnier than OAJ
1 cakehornnigga 2016-05-23
Was anyone saying the opposite was true? Ron should have his name on the walls of that studio.

You know after sneaking this pic the OP struck up conversation by saying "Cookie. Cookie. Kiss."

The word autist sounds like someone who practices autism. You have autism it's not a hobby. The word's autistic.
1 TakeMeXenu 2016-05-23
I guess I'm autistic too cause I'd wear that shit.
