I have always been a "happy" guy who loves to crack jokes (no wiseass comments about my performance on here!) and make people laugh. I had a happy childhood with a lot of friends. So I'm sure there are a lot of funny people out there who just enjoy a good laugh,too. Let's not lump all comics in the same way,not that anybody was btw.

There's nothing more helpful than a cautionary post about not doing something literally nobody is doing.

I wouldn't listen to O&A if you paid me, but as far as Jimmy Norton goes, to quote Jabba, he's "my kind of scum".

he just seems to play to the lowest common denominator on that show and his voice aggravates the hell out of me; but o&a have a way of bringing out the worst in everything. the thing i hate about them most though is that they usually have interesting topics.

and one more rant...i absolutely can't stand cumia. he's so accented and full of affectation it's like he's efforting every syllable to sound cool. it's basically like a performance to show nonchalance except it smacks of effort.

I have no idea who you're talking about, perhaps lending credence to my never listening to O&A statement.

Give Jim's standups a try ... unless you're not into (what's apparently called) 'cringe comedy' ... Norton, Patrice O'Neal (RIP), Giraldo (RIP) ... basically the Tough Crowd folks and their ilk.

cumia = anthony cumia, the anthony in opie and anthony.

i don't know if i ever find something appealing in a label for anything stand up comedy related (i.e. "cringe", "observational", "impersonationist", "anti-humor") but if it makes me laugh i'll like it...

I agree with most of what you say about the show but Opie is absolutely the most talentless hack to ever make it in this industry

The next funny or insightful thing that guy says will be his first. Just awful. Like below Harry Teinowitz

Just reading how he initially cut his wrists before hanging himself is really sad...I just can't comprehend being in that state of mind...very sad situation

I can't help but wonder if his new wife played a role. Just seems weird.

Another example as well of how men get the fucking shaft in divorce settlements. There is no fucking reason either of his first two wives were entitled to tens of millions of dollars. HE was the sole reason for that kind of money to be earned. It was his talent , no way that money should be split equally.

Having gone thru a divorce, you couldn't be more right.

Just hoping everything is alright on your end. I'm hoping that you found solace in the links I provided and that you will retract your negative claims made against my person. I cannot afford any dark clouds hovering over my good name!

I totally agree, but California is a 50/50 state when it comes to divorce. Absolute bullshit!

The guy was a HVAC worker, when somebody decided to give him a mic and a show. Just more proof that radio station program directors are the dumbest mother fuckers ever created. A bunch of power ties looking for a man.
