Stern's an asshole, but at some point he said I want some fucking friends. What's the point of all this money if you're a lonely hermit? So he sold out for the sake of happiness. Not our Opester. Nah, yo, dat nigga Opie keeps it real, son. Or so he'd like to pretend. The unfortunate reality is that he's socially retarded and incapable of evolving because his lack of intelligence prevents him from much needed introspection. So he might as well be broke because he's unemployable and friendless.

Buzzy?

I honestly believe that when he talks about his "close friends" nowadays... anything outside of the Philly Crew, which is just Lindsi's friends and family btw, he's talking about his neighbors which he's "friendly" with.

It would be funny if Gregg started hanging out with Weaze a lot again and they had a real fun light hearted friendship. Only to come home one day and find the Weaze man porkin Lynz with his old cock.

I bet Weaze was out of Opie's life until he started getting some heat at WNEW and then wanted back in, then he probably started going overboard thinking he mentored the next Stern (hence the Opie tattoo).

As for his general ability to make friends, his freqent efforts to appear "mysterious" tie directly to his insecurity. He is frightened of everyone finding out what the OnA subreddit has known for years: that there is nothing underneath the surface. Thus, the beach videos, the cryptic tweets, his whole too cool for school, contrarian personality. The latter two points can also be applied to Ron Bennington and can be annoying, but they are not everything about him. With Ron, we know about things he is passionate about (music, cigars, feeding his fat face) and some of his history (struggle with drug abuse, for instance.) We literally know nothing about a "character arc" or struggle within Opie's life that doesn't sound fake and all of his likes/dislikes sound made-up.

I'd be more than happy being a millionaire without friends. I'd love to travel the world alone to historic places, use my money to buy my way into places you normally wouldn't be allowed and so on. This fucking dolt only likes girly drinks and writing in sand so he probably won't be getting the same enjoyment of it as I would.

Or go the Nick Mullen/hermit route - buy a cabin in the middle of nowhere, and just spend your days in isolation making furniture.

Looking for gold in remote parts of northern Canada, that would be the ultimate dream.

I never heard the clip, but didn't Kevin Smith invite him to a hockey game or something like that and he overreacted and claimed that was queer to hang out with a guy or something to that effect?

I can imagine him handling pretty much every friendly encounter like that.

To be fair to Opie is there a sports stadium in the world with seats wide enough to comfortably sit next to Kevin Smith?

Yes. All of the stadiums in the USA because you all are fatty boom booms.

Mr. Dean was right about littler sositches

they go good with dem french fried potaters

Yea, his reaction was fucking bizarre, even for his typical sociopathic standards. Watching him expose the emptiness in his social life has been particularly delightful.

He was taking that Destefano 'mo to Islander games last year...and like all his recent string of forged and phony friendships...the other party realizes "this guy can't really do shit for my career....and on top of that, he's a fucking weirdo lady-cunt".

Opie always deflects with serious (not joking) homophobic slights. I honestly think he may have a little quay in him, at minimum bisexual, and that's a main reason he doesn't like bonding or close friendship.

I don't think he's fruity, but I definitely think that because of his complete lack of social or people skills, he feels like he needs to make it incredibly clear how not gay he is and doesn't understand "doth protest too much".

Like when he was getting picked on for his Lean On Me cereal? And rebutted with "Just trying to keep up, brothers..." and then his story of feeling self-conscious about the models? I don't think he understands how or why that came across as bizarre, he just thought he was being made fun of for "being girly", and thought if he blurted "Nah dude it's 'fer the fahkin' CHICKS!", that he would instead look super manly.

Point taken, thanks for jogging my memory.

Queen Ger-a-trood? Never fawkin' heard of her to be honest witchya

He was also literally in love with Anthony

I remember how he always brought up how big of a "hog" Ant has. He loves telling to story about the "babes" who went behind the bus and were shocked at Anthony's Italian hog. He'd then refer to how inferior his dick size is, even though of course, he can "still get it done".

Opie is a quay boy.

Also if you listen to his response to Walking on Greggshells, he sounds exactly like a scorned, heartbroken, and vengeful lover. Then he cried.

by that same measure almost all of Opie & Anthony's guests are also gay as well as the entire Legion of Skanks crew who constantly talk about the size other men's cocks.( which i don't believe, but this is literally the only off-base criticism of Opie i've seen on here)

"The Destroyer"

It really is insane.

Can you imagine how insufferable his children will grow up to be?

Ugh, they're going to be skateboarding everywhere and beating up their Dad while he's just trying to take a dump. They'll have many more friends than that zilch who raised them though.

NothiskidsBam's#never4get

They have his inferior mental and physical genes and on top of that they're being raised around out of touch Manhattan weirdos. I can't see those two growing up to be anything other than absolute assholes.

Rich Manahttan kids. A couple of Lena Dunhams in no time.

Rich Manhattan offspring of Gregg Hughes. Could he have created the Anti Christ?

They have his ... genes

At least Hudson managed to avoid this one.

ME: It's fffawwkin lonely at da top brothaman

never heard of a socially autistic elderly gay virgin millionaire hermit that lives in his 130 year old mother's basement called FEZ MARIE WHATLEY?

Fez doesn't want or need friends. Fez won.

Oh shit, I just realized when he moved back to Florida he moved back close to his mother. Why would he do that to himself, poor Fez...

What about Jay from Framingham? They were close, brothaman.

I think Lynsi has a lot to do with his lack of friends. Tits needs to be available 24/7 to babysit in case she has an emergency wine-tasting session with friends, or "friends".

Maybe an impromptu skateboarding sesh

When he snaps his fingers at employees..you know he's a POS with most of humanity. Narcissist

but what do you call granthonys relationship with young empolyees, he was trying to make love to them biatches

He can't stand anyone looking better than him, that's why he's alienated everyone in his field. Because unfortunately they are better than him

I believe he is friends with Joey Reynolds from WOR Radio

Not hyperbole. If he had friends there'd be pictures all over his social media to prove he has friends. The 'buddy' road trip was so cringey it was sad. Brother Wease kicked him out after a quick break to do the weather. He spoiled the only professional opportunity he has left with Ant's thing to get off a twitter burn.

Opie is 60 years old. Fired for filming a man shitting on the toilet. Now more concerned with twitter lines than securing a professional future for his family. Zero personal insight or accountability. What does anyone gain from a friendship with a man like that besides desperate comedy nobodies like Vic & Sherrod?

I hate Roland as much as anybody else does, but I do feel for the guy because a dump he took 2 months ago continues to be a topic of conversation...and supposedly now a lawsuit. That has to be humiliating.

You would think there would be at least one moocher in the entire New York City metro area which numbers 20 million plus that would be willing to put with Opie's awful personality, just for some free meals at F.H Riley's or something.

I would buy rollerblades and meet him at the park every sunday for $750 an appearance and nudes of his wife.

Dropping friendships, all career long brothaman

A retarded Charles Foster Kane if you will

He has lots of friends! Ask him, he'll be the first to tell you he does.

I'm beginning to think this Opie character is a bit narcissistic. Almost like he unknowingly ruins relationships he's in while blaming everyone but himself. We should really build up a case on this guy.

No, no. You guys don't get it. It's not his fault. No one has called HIM.

Ahem... Philly crew

How many times did the presidents son invite him to golf or fish?

Point taken, thanks for jogging my memory.
