Say what you want about Opie, he never scammed the fans out of money to pay for a failed project.

Never forget that Jim said he would make more cartoons with the money donated to him, but -instead- he paid himself back. Vice had already passed on the project because " everyone hated it." He knew the show was shit. That's why he didn't show it to anyone until after the donations came in.
Yeah. That's right. He had already made the fucking show before any donations came in.
Opie is actually the better person. He's autistic and has no ability to judge how others see him. Jim is a fucking sociopath and a lying sack of shit.
Now someone is going to reply that Jim is more talented and entertaining than Opie and I agree, but -regardless- he's a mediocre comedian at best. Don't give him too much credit. He's a weasel.

Your logic is as thorough as it is flawed.

Opie is still trying to hock T-Shirts and get people to pay to hear his awful show on satellite radio. That's the scam of all scams.
n/a BigDummyIsSexy 2017-06-24
Why would Opie take T-shirts to a pawn shop?
n/a killtheumpire 2017-06-24
Jimmy is a self aware piece of shit, and knows he sucks. Opie truly believes he's funny and a great person. Honestly idk what's worse.
n/a thattherewah 2017-06-24
Have you heard Opie lately? He takes a lot of shit that he wouldn't have in the past. I don't listen to him much but he is at leas trying to be more humble. I won't be able to find the clip but last week they were slamming him pretty hard for being autistic.
n/a killtheumpire 2017-06-24
Nowadays he has to keep the "friends" he has

Are you serious?
n/a thattherewah 2017-06-24
that was gay, but listen to the show. its basically nonstop trashing opie now.
n/a drakeyequation 2017-06-24
CQ has continually proven that the Worm is far from self-aware.

OP is a fucking idiot.
n/a eastriverdriveII 2017-06-24
totally agree.
n/a PhilipMarma 2017-06-24
Not saying what Jimmy did was ethical but I have no sympathy or concern for anyone who donates money to any crowd-funded cartoon or risky creative endeavor. The terms are pretty clear in these campaigns. Now had he raised $60k for a phony illness, that would be a different story.
n/a thattherewah 2017-06-24
A scam is a scam.
n/a PhilipMarma 2017-06-24
Not to split hairs, but was it really a scam? Or was it a genuine effort at a really bad idea that didn't work? I hate to defend Jimmy on this (because it was SUCH a bad idea), but I just don't see it as a true con job.
n/a FCKFREDFROMBROOKLYN 2017-06-24
He made people think he was the wild man edgy addict when in fact he wasn't
n/a PhilipMarma 2017-06-24
Like the people who donated to his cartoon, though, if you ever believed that you deserved to be duped.
n/a FCKFREDFROMBROOKLYN 2017-06-24
Fat jimmy was a bit the minute I didn't work he became the middle of the road cunt he is today
n/a PhilipMarma 2017-06-24
Where you at with tranny fucking Jimmy? Formerly edgy bit (before all things 'trans' went mainstream) or perverse lifestyle?
n/a FCKFREDFROMBROOKLYN 2017-06-24
All a bit ...the jimmy we have today is real Jim
n/a PhilipMarma 2017-06-24
I don't know, I think he's had loads of prostitutes, and probably got blown by a few trannies along the way. His sexual perversions, or lack thereof, wouldn't matter if they weren't the centerpiece of his act, year in and year out, as a stand up.
n/a thattherewah 2017-06-24
Again.
He paid for a show.
It failed.
He told fans he needed money to make a show.
He took their money.
He made no new content.
The End.
He conned people into paying for a failed project.
n/a PhilipMarma 2017-06-24
Meh
n/a deanthecleanmachine 2017-06-24
naw, animation costs a lot of money. 60,000 doesnt get you more than 2 episodes. it was a shot at a show and failed. The true master scammer is money bags daniel kurlan over there in queens
n/a breadmoccasin 2017-06-24
I just wish people would shut the fuck up about it.
Or, if they do mention it, mention it in a way that is funny, amusing, or at least not done 500 fucking times in the past week.
n/a ONAFan2014 2017-06-24
It's Schadenfreude. Because of what happened with the show after Ant left, people have to just shit on it. Even after Sam took Opie's job and is doing a much better show, it's never enough.
But I guess Howard frothing over Kevin Hart and the Chainsmokers' cocks are more entertaining I guess.
n/a PM_ME_YOUR_FEET- 2017-06-24
You're a schadenfaggot.
n/a ONAFan2014 2017-06-24
Wah, wah, wah! Keep kissing Howard's ass with the rest of the rubes on Reddit.
n/a late_50s_why 2017-06-24
Just because you think the other shows are bad doesn't make any of Sam's show good
n/a ONAFan2014 2017-06-24
Yeah? Tell me anything interesting happened on the Howard Stern Show that's worth any interest.
n/a StutterinPrickYou 2017-06-24
Shuddup stoopid
n/a ONAFan2014 2017-06-24
I know. I guess it's another excuse to rip Jim and Sam because they did something that probably sucked, yet wasn't a big deal. Then they'll go on to say how Howard Stern is better.
n/a late_50s_why 2017-06-24
Nobody here even like Howard 😂😂😂 stop acting a fag
n/a ONAFan2014 2017-06-24
Real mature response.
n/a late_50s_why 2017-06-24
I guess it just shows who he is, betting his name and credibility on 60k
n/a Opesterino 2017-06-24
which bobo is doing? except bobo only got around 16$
n/a thissiteruinedme 2017-06-24
Opie's also got better perks. Sitting on his chest seductively.
n/a DButler1979 2017-06-24
Have you ever met either of them? Who are you to say who the better person is? I can tell you from experience Opie is an awful human being.
n/a FlashVirus 2017-06-24
I'm confused. The OP is too coherent and well written to be Opie.. yet he's defending him.
n/a SpaceEdge 2017-06-24
Didn't Opie take other people's street photos autograph them and then sell them. Also he jacks video content puts it on his monetized YouTube channel with all his watermarks.

Relax buddy, jim said the chip cartoon is on the way. I heard talk of Pixar picking up the project.
n/a thebedshow 2017-06-24
He scams them with retarded t shirts or pictures. Same shit.
n/a urfaceisa 2017-06-24
He scams every red blooded male who sees the luscious tits on his shadow before he rounds a corner.
n/a kevin121312 2017-06-24
he's been scamming management for 35 years
n/a Opesterino 2017-06-24
As soon as I start to feel bad for Opie, I get reminded why I hate him. If you avoid his radio show/youtube you might forget what a baby he is.
Was just watching that Ron and Opie interview on some channel for sirius. withing 5 minutes greggshells were cracking.
n/a RacistPigeon 2017-06-24
Well Jimmy is shit, trying to insinuate that Opie is somehow good is never going to win you any arguments. It's just going to make you look like a titanic fag, or like Opie himself posting under a shit account
n/a Gahjooze 2017-06-24
That is probably Opie's only talent. He did well managing his money. He splurged on beach front real estate investments. He can retire on his real estate assets if he has to and still live a wealthy life.
He is just a terrible businessman though. He destroyed his monetary value by a 100% when he didn't fight for Anthony getting fired. He could have coasted another 5 years of 3 million per year without doing anything like his entire career if he had just stuck up for Ant.
n/a ApeNia 2017-06-24
Have you not gotten your perks, OP?
n/a sindrone7 2017-06-24
Opie stole show content to monetize it for himself on YouTube. When Sam took over, Opie took the old twitter account.
n/a thattherewah 2017-06-24
Good.
