R&F Sirius XM Listening Thread for 4/22/10 We are O.G.

[StanUpshaw]

"I've been thinking...you know how the cliche supermarket phrase used to be 'paper or plastic?' Well, I think the new phrase is 'Did you check your eggs?'"

[yojimbo7248]

What the fuck was that about? Some of the most uncomfortable shit I've heard on Ron and Fez in months.

What happened?

[Willmore]

It really might be 5150 time...:down:

From Wikipedia:

5150 criteria

The criteria for writing requires probable cause. This includes danger to self, danger to others together with some indication, prior to the administering of the hold, of symptoms of a mental disorder, and/or grave disability—as noted below. The conditions must exist under the context of a mental illness.

1. Danger to self: The person must be an immediate threat to themselves, usually by being suicidal. Someone who is severely depressed and wishes to die would fall under this category (though they generally have to have expressed a plan to commit suicide and not just a wish to die).
2. Danger to others: The person must be an immediate threat to someone else's safety.
3. Gravely disabled:
1. Adult (patients over 18 years of age): The person's mental condition prevents him/her from being able to provide for food, clothing, and/or shelter, and there is no indication that anyone is willing or able to assist him/her in procuring these needs. This does not necessarily mean homeless, as a homeless person who is able to seek housing (even in a temporary shelter) when weather demands it would not fall under this category. Also, the mere lack of resources to provide food, clothing, or shelter is not dispositive; the inability must be caused by the psychiatric condition.
2. Minor (patients under 18 years of age): The person is unable to provide for his/her food, clothing, and/or shelter or to make appropriate use of them even if these are supplied directly—for example, a psychotic adolescent who refuses to eat because he/she believes his/her parents are poisoning them.


Only Dave fits that description:

Danger to Self. He's already attempted suicide. Check.

Danger to others. Those wife-killing rants. Check.

Gravely disabled. Check.

Medication time, Mr. McDonald, medication time.

[StanUpshaw]

I'd pick Bernie Madoff.

[Death Metal Moe]

What happened?

Ron kinda clammed up for awhile and let Fez start a few topics in a row then shot him down at every turn.

[Godzoox]

Oh literal Willmore..........

[Sofa_King]

"there are some people that know my secret"... what the fuck is he talking about?? everybody knows!! why doesn't fez just take a "leap" and just fucking say what everyone on the show and in the audience already knows. so ridiculous.

[Furtherman]

DO IT FEZ!


Your mother isn't listening!

[Dell]

I'm looking forward to feeling uncomfortable while I listen to today's show tonight...damn inno better not shit the bed...

[yojimbo7248]

Ron kinda clammed up for awhile and let Fez start a few topics in a row then shot him down at every turn.

thanks, Moe. do you think Ron and Fez agree on topics Fez will bring up before the show? It's odd that Ron sounds like Fez just springs them on him.

[Serpico1103]

Why was he allowed to spin and grasp?
Ron's fault, esd's? I'll say ron is letting fez come to the realization on his own that he is incapable of doing the show. Ron couldn't fire earl, but he had no trouble letting him go.

[Chob]

Funny, last time I listened on a regular basis I thought he was almost ready to say it. Ha ha, boy was I a rube. :dry:

[Baby DEW Year]

Hey, know what? Opie also uses a pseudonym. Too weird.

Opie's had more gay experiences than Fez. He went fly fishing with Bob Kelly!

[StanUpshaw]

The "You're not gay because you've never sucked cock" argument is one of Ron's stupidest.

[Baby DEW Year]

Real astronauts like Tang!

Fezzie's astronaut likes Wang!

[Manning, Esq.]

The right stuff - ewwww.

[Furtherman]

[Furtherman]

The "You're not gay because you've never sucked cock" argument is one of Ron's stupidest.

He's trying to get him to tell his secret.

[Willmore]

The "You're not gay because you've never sucked cock" argument is one of Ron's stupidest.

He's just antagonizing Fez, it's not an actual opinion. Of course there are gays who haven't had sex. Now, the vast majority of them are 12, not 46.

[Dougie Brootal]

Why was he allowed to spin and grasp?

because ron hates us, and ron hates fez.

[Sofa_King]

What happened?

Fez became a Stuttering Stanley frog voice freak.

[Servo]

God Hates Astronauts

[Meataball23]

Funny, last time I listened on a regular basis I thought he was almost ready to say it. Ha ha, boy was I a rube. :dry:

Im right there w/ you. This is going nowhere

Also I missed the last hour, what happened?

[SinA]

I think everyone knows that the moon landing was faked.

[Chob]

http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/wiredscience/images/2008/01/31/rainbow_flag_on_the_moon.jpg
Heh. This has to be one the weirdest euphemisms I've heard.

[Serpico1103]

How many times have I heard this exact conversion. Oh last time it was skiers.

[Manning, Esq.]

On Earth Two, Shirley Phelps Roper loves astronauts.

[Willmore]

Maybe if Fez can't find an astronaut at a bar, he should go online and hire himself a cosmonaut?

[Dougie Brootal]

jesus christ this is ridiculous.

[Furtherman]

Underwater divers?



OOOOHHHHH now I get it.

[YourAmishDaddy]

I think the writers of Lost are behind Fez's secret. Just drag it out.....

[StanUpshaw]

He's trying to get him to tell his secret.

You'd think so, but then he goes into his asexual rap.

[Dougie Brootal]

You'd think so, but then he goes into his asexual rap.

hes maybe taking an opposing viewpoint to get fez to say, "no im not an asexual cuz im attracted to men."

couldnt have said it better myself!

[Meataball23]

jesus christ this is ridiculous.

And really really sad

All Fez wants is a "cure all". He wants to do zero himself

[EliSnow]

Am I the only one not seeing this?

I don't understand your astronaut talk.

[Dougie Brootal]

And really really sad

All Fez wants is a "cure all". He wants to do zero himself

youre right! he thinks telling the secret will fix everything. he thinks meeting the right person will fix everything. this guy is fucked up. no question about it.

[Willmore]

Am I the only one not seeing this?

Press F13, it'll show up.

[Willmore]

Ha, Ron did my joke.

[Hottub]

Sorry.

http://pda.88000.org/wallpapers/36/The_Birth_of_Venus%2C_Sandro_Botticelli.jpg

[Serpico1103]

Why don't esd and pepper take fez to a gay club. Esd is social enough to lure in a twink that fez can pounce on.

[Furtherman]

Sorry.

http://pda.88000.org/wallpapers/36/The_Birth_of_Venus%2C_Sandro_Botticelli.jpg

Just give up.

[YourAmishDaddy]

No Fez, the people you're letting down are the people who've already known this "secret"

It's kind of an insult to my intelligence. I've known you were gay for 9 years. Who cares.

[Baby DEW Year]

...Ground control to Major Tom...

[Furtherman]

Fez's fantasy:

Gay? Ewwwww. I thought we were talking about bestiality.

[SinA]

I've always thought the space program was kinda gay.

[YourAmishDaddy]

"Hey guys, I suck cock too!!!!!!" That's an ice breaker.

[Dougie Brootal]

jesus christ, stop with astronaut analogy.

[Hottub]

Just give up.

NEVER!!

[Meataball23]

Makes sense to me

Im still amazed how a guy who wants to be gay in a big city w/ a famous gay district still cant get gay.

Fish in a barrel.

[Manning, Esq.]

Sometimes, especially duing the last year +/-, I've wondered whether, as suggested earlier, it should even be "and Fez" any more. I'd love to read a transcript of Fez's input; it'd be a case study, I'm sure. However, I'm usually highly entertained by Ron's carrot-sticking the issue; and, Dave's antagonizing the disturbance. Reel on, Troubled Todd, reel on.

[Furtherman]

NEVER!!

http://www.ludic-society.net/sema/img/birth-venus-botticelli-CODES2.jpg

Congrats!


Now, what was this about?

[SinA]

Press F13, it'll show up.

if that doesn't work, try Alt+F4

[Manning, Esq.]

What was that Homestar Runner?

[YourAmishDaddy]

Gives new meaning to "sitting in a tin can"

[Baby DEW Year]

"here am I taking it in the can,
far above the world.

Boy my balls are blue,
and there's nothing I can do!"

[EliSnow]

if that doesn't work, try Alt+F4

Ha! I am on my blackberry.

[Willmore]

see ya, buddays.

[StanUpshaw]

Well that was a mess.

[Hottub]

Congrats!


Now, what was this about?

Supposed to be on the last page.

[brettmojo]

Seriously.

C'mon Fez. Shizer or get off the pot.

[KC2OSO]

if that doesn't work, try Alt+F4
Heh - I love that Alt-F4 gag. :tongue:

The end of the show was so strange today. Space Oddity was a great choice. So Fezzy is an astronaut. He should fly to uranus and do some space docking to get his feet wet.

[Recyclerz]

Is it just me or was today's show the scariest/cringiest/saddest performance to date by Fezzie?

Admittedly he's set a pretty high bar for these things and I did listen to Wednesday's show (digging up Grandma Watley) before today's so I may have gotten a double dose of crazy. But I think the lurches from almost normal (start of the show; discrimination against singles) to boonanas and back again made it all the more disconcerting.

I suspect Sirius-XM just wants content on the air and doesn't really care about the effect on Fez of these episodes and they do have a contract they have to fufill, but at some point does Ron have "to be the Daddy" and pull the plug? And reboot with a new show?


Sorry to be a downer but I figured our cesspool has been a little low on negativity of late.

I don't think that was a downer post. The last 45 minutes of the show today were strange.

yeah today's show was up there on weirdness meter but - ga I sill love Fez. Man I wish the best for him.

Still the best show on radio.

[IamFogHat]

Listening to this from Audible. Boy this show took a weird turn. (It's the picking up change day). I hate it when Fez is upset and the callers are mean to him with no funny value. What's the point in that?
