What could you possibly sell for an AMA?

17 TED_THE_REDDITOR 2012-06-21

I AM GLAD YOU ASKED JOSEPH! WE HAVE A WIDE ASSORTMENT OF PRE WRITTEN QUESTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN ASKED TO PRESIDENTS AND OTHER FAMOUS FIGURES. FOR EXAMPLE:

"JAMES NORTON, DID YOU CHOP DOWN THAT CHERRY TREE?"

5 andrewhasaredditact 2012-06-21

10 TED_THE_REDDITOR 2012-06-21

ANDREW, AT TED SHECKLERS AMA EMPORIUM WE OFFER SUCH DELICATE QUESTIONS AS.

How much would that cost, Ted?

10 TED_THE_REDDITOR 2012-06-21

FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK. EACH QUESTION GOES FOR THE LOW LOW PRICE OF SIX HUNDRED DOLLORS AND TWENTY TWO CENTS. WE ALSO TAKE STAMPS!

3 [deleted] 2012-06-21

I hope Chip asks him a question or two.

And I hope Jim doesn't hate it.

4 lankrypt0 2012-06-21

im almost positive he will hate it. he's said it a few times on the show that most people just don't do chip right.

2 [deleted] 2012-06-21

Have you noticed that he's been letting some people get away with it? Angry cunt chip doesn't always come out anymore.

6 [deleted] 2012-06-21

taptap* double phones.

1 lankrypt0 2012-06-21

A bit, which stinks,I love angry Chip

1 [deleted] 2012-06-21

"I hope you die at the dentist. :)"

3 Fidena 2012-06-21

I'm hoping Paul, Edgar, Helen, Ted and Chip'll answer a few questions.

4 Diels_Alder 2012-06-21

Perhaps Jesse Ventura will check in with a question for him.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

2 Fidena 2012-06-21

PLUM ISLAND!

3 SpaceEdge 2012-06-21

Hopefully he will answer my question. I want to know about his obsession with the Internet and using your real name. He brings this up numerous times a week and acts like screen names and the Internet are a new thing. Want to see if he can explain this to the reddit hive mind without being able to get loud and yell.

2 [deleted] 2012-06-21

He expects people to stand up to what they say.

Hiding behind a name is a pansy move.

2 SpaceEdge 2012-06-21

Then why is your name abravefight here? Screen names and the internet isn't a new phenomenon, It's been around forever.

Sure acting like a retard towards someone especially a celerity or semi celebrity is stupid but there have been a lot of good things that have come out of people being anonymous on the internet. Arab Spring for example (I didn't think of that someone else mentioned it)

Let's say the government said everyone starting next year you have to use your real name first and last on every online profile. You do realize that he would probably go on a massive rant about that right? What if all those sites he uses for shit porn and hookers made him use his full name, I'm sure he wouldn't feel the same way.

1 [deleted] 2012-06-21

After a particular incident last month in a local community, I decided that after 10 years of using my name on the internet everywhere, I was going to anonymize my identity on reddit.

After all, it's only reddit.

1 [deleted] 2012-06-21

I reject the "persistent identity" fallacy. Identity is multi-faceted.

1 [deleted] 2012-06-21

False.

FirstnameLastname is the person

ACleverNickname, is a person

AStupidNickThatsNotRelated is not a person. It's whole idea is to be not linked back to the original person in any way.

1 [deleted] 2012-06-21

That's the entire point behind anonymous.

0 [deleted] 2012-06-21

Right, it's silly.

Stand up for what you believe in, or be a pansy (like me) and hide behind a nickname based on a random tea party song I was listening to.

2 [deleted] 2012-06-21

That's not how the internet used to be, and that's not how's going to be in the future. The internet is special because it's separate from the real world to some extent.

-2 [deleted] 2012-06-21

No.

3 iheartdna 2012-06-21

Well, good. I was texting with him trying to get him to do it so I'll take all the credit. He kept writing back "I want to! But what do I do!" and then I would explain, and then he would ignore me for awhile.

3 flaystus 2012-06-21

That's on his birthday!

2 Maarek 2012-06-21

I predict there will be a lot of talk about fucking hookers.

3 [deleted] 2012-06-21

I hope not, I don't find Jimmy's personal life that interesting after reading his book. I find his comedy and mind more fascinating.

1 Fidena 2012-06-21

FUCKING, SUCKING.

2 sweater_boy_cutie 2012-06-21

Hooray! The sweetest boy will finally chat! Go Yimmy!

2 somevelvetmorning 2012-06-21

I wonder if Uncle Paul will make an appearance.
