Fuck Ron Bennington...

[Annie Waits]

Name one thing Ron Bennington made you discover/appreciate just like Jimmy Norton experienced last week.


For me it's The Last Waltz.....

[underdog]

Indie movies. I never watched them, and I'd hear Ron talk about certain films so strongly that I started checking them out and now I'm hooked.

Zevon, van morrison, last waltz, I'm sure many many more

[TheGameHHH]

yea, i always mix those up. but enlightenment has nothing to do with grammer. its more of a mental state

[ToiletCrusher]

Amazing...watched it for the second time about 3 weeks ago at the camper...Awesome...I could watch it over and over.

[RMPGP]

How does that work?

A former XM employee was an expert in rape prevention prevention. I think he had a black belt in it.

For me it would be a number of things, but Daniel Johnston comes to mind fastest.

Fuckin-A right.

[Coach_Mac]

I watch every documentary I can.

[Meataball23]

To take this in the other direction, its a hatred of popcorn movies

I was never really a big fan, but now Im just horrified by the crap that people say have "awesome special effects" etc...

Yea, I second that. And I've never like those sort of movies but now I make fun of people who do and call them idiots. Ron makes people hate me.

[Enabler]

damn. thought this would be an easy question. but i guess i already liked most of what ron has suggested over the years. thats probably why im a fan.

but without question, ron AND FEZ have made my appreciation for talk radio a million times greater. i never gave a shit about the medium before i listened to them

[Death Metal Moe]

How does that work?

Read the book!

[ToiletCrusher]

Read the book!

But words are hard to read and type.

Please tell me.

[drjoek]

I appreciated all the things listed already. I am thankful I can listen to someone on the radio who appreciates such things.
I also find many things that I completely don't get that Ron raves about. Ron tends to canonize certain movies music etc that I feel is complete shit.
Makes the show so fucking good

[Death Metal Moe]

But words are hard to read and type.

Please tell me.

It's an INTENSIVE 8 week course taught by Ron Bennington, the world's foremost expert in Rape Prevention Prevention with the book used as a study guide and refresher once you leave.

I can't just TELL you everything involved in it! Look online at RonBenningtonRPP.com (http://wowomg.com) for a class near you!

[RMPGP]

But words are hard to read and type.

Please tell me.

Basically if a woman knows rape prevention, a black belt in rape prevention prevention can disarm any dangerous maneuvers she tries to pull.

Experts in Rape Prevention Prevention are known to have an affinity for singing karaoke and also love salsa dancing.

Without a doubt for me the best was The Trailer Park Boys. I would have never heard of that show without
the Ronster and its easily one of the best shows I've ever seen.

exactly...besides, i sent ron an email about tpb 3 years ago that went unanswered and probably unread because im a male unwilling to attach nude pics of my ex-girlfriend

but yeah, tpb rules.

I love carby and lil carby

Just.... Wow.:thumbdown:

[genericbus]

this is gonna suck, but here goes... the first thing that I thought of was the author Charles Bukowski. the bad news is that ESD mentioned him and Ron seconded it. I picked up a few of his books, and now the collection grows

[DolaMight]

ron made me realize rape isn't such a big deal.

[CuntagiousChris]

Tom Waits

[ToiletCrusher]

Rons never watched TPB yet to my knowledge

I've been there since the beginning.

Bless Canadian TV for being available on my cable.

[west milly Tom]

That's weird, I am positive I heard Ron talking about it. Mabye he was saying that he never saw it. Regardless he's still responsible for me seeing it.

Great class Moe. Like A Course In Miracles - just not as good.
It took me to 20 spins before I figured out what I was looking at. By 80 spins I was hooked.

[Obadiah 1329]

Live in the moment. Appreciate being alive. Ron is a fucking Bodhisattva, man.

[TripleSkeet]

He made me appreciate how rare it is that you find someone that can give a great interview.

[pussyhound]

he made me realize that when i hear someone say "fuck ron bennington" I immediately get furious before I hear an explanation as to why. norton got me good.

[biggie]

Ronnie has really made me appreciate carbonite.com and porn.com. Enlightening.

[Ty_S]

Fuck Ron Bennington!!!!

He made me buy that song Little Green Bag by George Baker......

Midnight Radio, thus Hedwig and The Angry Inch

Midnight Radio is now one of my most favorite songs ever.

[nandopj]

There were a ton of things listed. First, I no longer judge anyone or what they do. Its not my concern
Party Down
I think he turned me on to Ricky Gervais from when he was on the O & A show.
The term Ham & Egg'ers and Strap-Hangers
East Side Dave
The list could really go on for 10 paragraphs if I really felt like putting more effort into it.

[SinA]

it just doesn't matter!

[CanadianDave]

What the great ronnie b actually does is turn people on to a different way of looking at the world. Buried within all the hilarious comments, interviews and mostly his conversations with fez is a total lesson on life. He teaches people to use self examination effectively, how to become a critical thinker in regards to any form of human commiunicatio and also how to handle your emotions in almost every gottdamn situation possible.

The most important thing you can learn at college is not the actual information you learn it's that you learn how to think. Ronnie b gives u all that for 1/1000th the price. Now it's too bad that most people are so caught up in their own shit and small
worlds they never get it but he is at least giving people the chance to learn.

Or you can listen to other shows and learn about farts, shits and hair follicles

[keithy_19]

Warren Zevon

I feel pretty cool knowing that I started listening to him without being told to check him out.

[Rockvillejoe]

ronnie b takes me back to my youth.
ronnie b reminds me about the phillies in their heyday.
ronnie b talks about when you are 10, running into the kitchen to chug a glass of water, from the spicket, out of breath, telling your mom you gotta get back out there because there are rocks being thrown.
ronnie b tells me that "stuff" don't make you a bad person
ronnie b, despite his caustic, fuck you, facade, has a heart of gold.
ronnie b gets it.
ronnie b would be sitting at my wish list, all-star dinner table, along with richard pryor, adolph hitler, sonia vergara, thomas jefferson, tug mcgraw, and moms mabley.
did i mention ronnie b gets it?

right on. Hitler would be a dull dinner guest tho. There's not much you could learn from him. Did you mean Sofia Vergara btw? Interesting figure. I'd invite Christ and Buddha to my ultimate dinner party. I bet they'd have lots to say.

[Rockvillejoe]

sofia vergara. yes. sonia bragga no. bragga could work the party.

anybody gotta photo of vergara? she would sit next to me. sofia on one side and tug mcgraw on the other. tug would have his glove with him. bouncing it off his thigh. sofia would have her hand on me, bouncing it off my thigh. i would love to ask tug about larry bowa, rose, and the 1980 series. also if he had any extra greenies. i would love to look at sofia vergara up close and personal.

re: hitler, i would love the chance to ask this jabroni what was he thinking? i think i would add simon wiesenthal to the dinner list and have him sit right next to adolph. now that would induce some interesting conversation.

jesus christ? yes. it would be fun, as he arrived, to look at him and say, "Jesue Christ", as long as he didn't get all christlike as he was prone to do. this is a dinner party, not a mass. do you think he had a sense of humor? do you think he ever turned wine back to water? i don't want to spend 500 dollars on bottles of cristal if he thinks it would be funny to turn it into pelligrino. although it would be fun to yell,
"jesus christ!, what are you doing"? after he pulled this prank.

re: buddha. no thanks. i believe he would just sit there, as he always does, with that smirk, passing judgment and implying, "oh, you'll pay for that remark, maybe not today, but just wait".

i want to add john lennon to my list. he can bring yoko. i heard she has big juggs. unusual for an asian woman. i'd like to verify this report while asking him about "wheels go round and round" and have him and adolph do a post dinner duet of "give peace a chance", while moms mabley plays the tambourine.

okay, lets add timothy leary and drop acid after dinner, actually before dinner so we take off for the after dinner entertainment. especially the hitler/lennon duet, accompanied by mabley. yes. this is a good idea.

jfk? nah. he would be hitting on sofia. and that accent. oye vey. rfk? of course. i go to his stadium all the time for dc united matches.

and fez marie whatley and his girlfriend from canada.

no esd though. sorry. he can stop by for cocktails, but must go before the main course.

too much potnetial for inappopriate offensive remarks. especially if the party is held on a friday night, his drinking night.

death metal moe could be the bouncer, and lleeder could decorate the place, as long he does not post any casual photos of that "saved by the bell" spanish guy on the wall.

Fuck Ron for making me waste the last 4 years of my life.

I remember when we were having a smoke outside the WJFK studios killing time
while JDubs played out the Bald Truth promos, commercials and the mandatory
30 secs of daily dead air. Cigar Sid and Perrynoid were making a run to 7-11 to
grab some slurpees and Slim Jims celebrating their recent victory against Tender
in a Thursdays chugging contest.

Ron was contemplating his srtuggle to reconcile his past experience of a spiritual
encounter after the passing of an old friend and his intellectual atheism which
dominated his current universal outlook. He spoke of Heisenberg Uncertainty
and logical positivism and how in some parallel universals he knew he was
Amish but was glad for the current menu of Cubans and Porterhouses.

He was sure that the secret to enlightenment included the understanding of which
of the basonic string theories was not unstable in the lowest excitation mode.

His theory that the strings were both open and orientable and had clear
implication on the supersymetry. Immediately after Ron suggested a new approach
of originating quantum states of mass and spin in 26 dimension spacetime using
Poincare groups, our attention was drawn to a fight which had just broken out
between Ogre and Giant Brian. We looked over the wall just in time to see
Wonderboy and Skellington tear the two apart using full nelsons and I could
swear I saw WB plant a knife.

Our talk was cut short and we were unable to resolve the denormalization but
Ron cleverly instigated my last 4 year journey trying to solve the last variables.
I now realize he was throwing me off the true solution hoping to obtain the
Nobel for his own parallel study using different approach.

Fuck Ron "gotta have my own Nobel" B

[PapaBear]

At least that knife led to (from what I hear) is a great barbecue joint. Ogre still has it, right?

[Dirtybird12]

Ron taught me that nothing is better than having a few slurpees after kicking the shit out of someone on the air..

He also taught me how to appreciate a convertible by driving with the top down and staring at the stars...instead of the road...my take on it was -
"dont worry about the road / future - enjoy what you have / see now"
