Yeah, just like Charlie Sheen and Lady Gaga; people throw that word around like it's some dumb fucking meme. If you think he was funny, that's one thing, but it's not like he was Bill Hicks. He wasn't even Chris Rock.

You're a clever guy, James. Instead of helping the rest of the world turn language into a shitty fucking joke, why not just make up some new words? They wouldn't be any less meaningful.

Haha. This coming from the guy who said...nevermind. I've never finished reading one of your posts.

What's your problem, c.d? Something wrong with Chris Rock?

I WAS FRAMED!

I watched that O&A clip about bullying... how anyone beyond the age of 20 can stomach those two emptyheaded blowhards is beyond me

Not sure how it has to do with age since most of us are a bunch of 15 year olds but O&A have never been funny to me.

Not as good on the level of traditional standup (basically as a craftsman and writer), 10x more interesting and valid as a thinking entertainer.

He has some special-length material, but not much. His best shit is dispersed very widely and without focus, imo. Earlier this year he put out Elephant in the Room, which is great. I guess looking back I would say that the Black Phillip shows are where he shines the best for any sustained length of time in some media format.

I'm a loyal listener, but those two guys themselves aren't amazing. Anthony can be hilarious (he's a genuinely great impressionist) but I think he's absolutely lost his drive. Mostly I dig on those guys because they sustain a format where serious talent can come in and do their shit, and I think that that's pretty much a known and accepted thing amongst the fanbase and general comedy cult. I have to say that I probably won't be listening as much now that I know their biggest gun is out of commission.

I'm absolutely unable to extract any meaning from what you've just written. In the spirit of Mr. O'Neal, however; thank you for the passive aggressive compliment.

A 'meme' is not a redefinition of an existing term or word, and a word whose meaning has been sullied or diluted cannot be said to be a meme on those grounds exclusively.

On Charlie Sheen and Lady Gaga:

If you and I have suffered from some conflict of value in our individual assessments of pop culture, I guess I'll apologize for never having noticed before; I have no idea who you are. I also don't really know who Charlie Sheen is aside from that Tiger Blood stuff everyone was yelling about last year. I'm not saying that to seem cool, I just don't know what you're talking about. Continue to store your passions for a later date, when you can present them to a more qualified judge. Your discussion with that person will be more meaningful than the one you've initiated here. Also don't patronize me, faggot.

This makes me think you're probably 16 years old, or mentally retarded. Sheesh, and sometimes I think my girlfriend and I have a generation gap when it comes to pop culture and movies and we're 5 years apart. You basically are from Siberia, or a rape basement.

I guess "beyond the maturity level of the average twenty-year-old" doesn't roll off the tongue quite so easily

Phew... I thought it was just me. That is some of the least funny radio in history. If it were just unfunny, that would be one thing, but it's more along the lines of completely unlistenable, despicable horseshit. It's offensive, and not just in terms of content.

This Patrice fellow, on the other hand, seemed genuinely funny in the short clips I checked out upon hearing the news. Bummer!

I wasn't patronizing you, but if that's something you don't want to happen, don't act like such an obtuse fucking baby. You totally understand what I'm talking about -- the wrong use of the word "genius" -- and as far as I can tell you're trying to make up for it by avoiding the point and talking big about something else entirely.

We're not assessing pop culture, either; we're talking about the meaning of a word that gets used too frequently and too thoughtlessly for it to retain any kind of meaning (holy fuck -- kind of exactly like a meme does). Shit like that bothers me, man.

I think we understand that he's a fucking retard for bringing up a stupid point for the sake of a stupid arguement that has nothing at all to do with this topic. I think you can move on from there.

I feel silly defending O&A when basically they're two guys of moderate intelligence and little talent but fuck me if the show isn't entertaining as hell.

And, Patrice was funny, cool dude who was also kind of a dick but whose laugh made him so goddamn lovable in spite of some of the things he'd do/say. He will be missed.

opie and anthony aren't breaking new ground...but the show is still entertaining for the most part.

however, if you want the good stuff, just listen to ron and fez. ronnie b is a funny motherfucker

or listen to nothing. less time wasted.
