The City of Manhattan.....

That is possibly the best opening sentence of a book I’ve ever read. This will haunt him till the end of his life.

Anthony is only capable of mistakes, lies, and impressions, and he's pretty bad at all 3

I hate AntH as much as the next guy, but his impressions are one of the few things he's still capable of doing.
1 BrothamanB5010 2018-11-04
He was, he hasn't done anything new since 2007.

I think Dice is his most modern impression.

Which he came up with in the 90's?

Does the book mention Sue?
1 MonsteRain 2018-11-04
yes in chapter 2
1 AndRiseAgain 2018-11-04
Those no way those 2 ghost writers weren't just made up and slapped on the cover to make Ant seem like he's still a relevant and important man. Faggot probably drunkenly spewed his half-remembered stories into a tape record one afternoon and then paid some Indian on Fiverr to type it up in Word.
1 AiCPearlJam 2018-11-04
Or he went out and got two of the cheapest amateur ghostwriters he could find.
1 Single_Action_Army 2018-11-04
Probably some other long islanders who his friends told him were good guys for the job. He hires writers the same way he hires people who run his network: fellow, easy white trash.
Funny how the guy who hates affirmative action never hires anyone on their merit.

I think ghost writer is a bit misleading. They just transcribed what he said, basically word for word. Monotonous work that requires no thinking and minimal attention.
1 satanssockpuppet 2018-11-04
One guy transcribed the recordings, the other guy edited the transcripts and pieced them together in a semi-coherent order. It's "writing", sort of, technically, but not really the kind of thing that's going to shine on your resume or anything.

He knew some little tidbits and factoids before the internet was around and all people knew that and had access to it so he styled himself "Professor Anthony" and the smart one of the trio. The only college graduate of the group was styled as the dumb one, and this high school flunkout drunk was called, "The Professor." They're all idiots. This is up there with any stupid thing Opie and Jimmy said, like, "Can you get podcasting equipment into the city?" and "What's in salt water that's so bad for people?" as a stupid statement, but this is the opening sentence of a book he's charging money for and worked with two other people on. A trio of people and a book publisher let the phrase, "City of Manhattan" slip by them and they charge money for it.

"Professor Anthony" was the other even dumber guys mocking him for knowing anything.

Dago retard.
1 ppeachy 2018-11-04
How many people must have seen that retarded first sentence? No one pointed out that manhattan is a borough in the CITY of New York? Or that manhattan doesn't have 8 million people but 1.6?
1 mrheh 2018-11-04
Mother died today. Or maybe yesterday; I can't be sure.
1 BeerCanThick 2018-11-04
I think right after he opines on the third borough of New York City having 8.5 million people in it, he says, "That's a real shitload of people." The people involved knew enough to know how to know how many people were in New York City to within one hundred thousand people, an internet search, but didn't know enough to realize Manhattan is just a part of New York City and just the third most inhabited part of it with less than two million people in it.
Here comes Professor Anthony and GED Jimmy and two ghostwriters a publisher to fuck it all up on the FIRST SENTENCE.

Manhattan isn't a city right?
1 PresidentJonStewart 2018-11-04
Sure it is. It's in Kansas.
1 BrothamanB5010 2018-11-04
Maybe that's the place he's talking about? Have to bring some new stories we haven't heard a thousand times in his new book.
1 jfjfgjgfjdfgjgfjdgfj 2018-11-04
its fucking boring there. all the mall cops hang themselves in the mop closets.
1 PSU19420 2018-11-04
Manhattan is one of the five boroughs of New York City. We know Ant isn’t bright; but even Bobo knows Manhattan isn’t a city.
1 Belchides 2018-11-04
I'm convinced that one or both of the ghost writers decided to sabotage his book. Either that or they're fucking morons.
I'll be happy either way.

Those two categories could exist within the same person, and the result would be indistinguishable from what has been produced.
Barely literate garbage.

How many writers worked on this fucking big text picture book? No one caught that? Its the opening sentence.
1 ArvelAzamat 2018-11-04
all of Jimmys books have size 24 font to make them more than 100 pages. must of taught ant some of his tricks.
1 PresidentJonStewart 2018-11-04
First line on Manhattan's wikipedia page: " Manhattan (/mænˈhætən, mən-/), often referred to locally as the City..." Nice try with the hate though.

That’s like saying The ATL of Atlanta.
1 lemskroob 2018-11-04
even if i gave you that, then how do you explain the "8 million people" part
1 PresidentJonStewart 2018-11-04
There's 8 million people in the city. Manhattan is know as the city.
1 lemskroob 2018-11-04
