Gerryheynow, or John's best friend:
First of all, as a "stern fan" it's odd you've only posted about this movie.
Those words don't mention what a tremendous pain in the a$$ you became on the show.
*funny you spell ass with money sign, if asking for more money makes you an ass, then howard must be the biggest ass for asking for a 500 million dollar contract from sirius not to mention all the stock that he raped them for.
Quite the astute observationalist you are. However this was more or less a way of trying to keep it somewhat clean. I've always spelled ASS a$$, regardless of context. You sound more jealous and caught up in Stern's salary than I am about John's negotiating tactics.
-Lying to Gary/Howard about how long you'd be gone for that crappy reality TV Show
*you mean the show where john showed his true colors of how good a guy he was outside of the over-bearing howard? you mean the show where john made it to the last day playing for his friend in a wheelchairs charity where howard refused to give out john's number because he is a jealous prick? you mean the show that got john the job on the tonight show? john said he told gary how long he was going to be gone for but baba booey screwed up & in usual gary fashion, to avoid getting in trouble, passed the blame on to john.
That's great, he was a nice guy to a dude in a wheelchair. He still said he was going to be gone for 2 weeks. Did you hear the phone call when he called on set into the show? He caught crap from everyone including Gary. You're going to tell me you would take John's word over Gary and others that claim to have heard the same thing?
-In everyone's business about how much scratch they made
*you mean like howard does? tell me how much did you make on the movie____ (insert guests name.)
John did that off the air. Several times people have said he'd done this to important people at business dinners and even fans who somehow got to go to lunch with Stern staffers. Unlike Howard, John didn't do it for the air.
-Concerned about everyone else's house/apartment size
you mean like howard does?
Again, one did it for an interesting interview, the other does it to be a douchebag.
-Would take money out of other members' purses or wallets and then would ask a few hours after the fact. Practically a thief.
*now that's funny.
Get out of your mom's purse!
-Had the gall to show Tom C. the stupid one-liners you got Howard to read on the air to justify a raise. Doing your job doesn't constitute a raise, doing it well does.
*you mean howard would read jokes that he doesn't like. get your head out of howard's ass for a second. if that's possible... john wasn't hired to write, he just started doing that... he shouldn't get paid for it? you mean the more valuable you become you shouldn't be compensated? I'll tell your boss that!
Exactly. That wasn John's job, yet he thought his one liners had weight in negotiating a raise. It was also Fred's job, it was Jackie's Job, it's now Artie and Benjy's Job. They don't feel the need to put all their jokes in a bucket for a raise. I helped my boss get some projects done for our department. It's called doing my job. It might weigh the decision of my worth, but does that mean I deserve a raise.
-Howard was pissed, but more at Leno and less at you. He's still not sore at you, until you decided to blab to Adam Corolla. Howard's always felt Jay's Borrowed from him. He then decides a stuttering idiot on a show is a worthy announcer? I'm going to have a deaf person sing the National Anthem for the Superbowl.
*jay seems to be happy with john... heard john say in an interview he has written stuff for the tonight show as well, why can't you be happy for him?
Again, the anger Howard expressed was always towards Jay not John. I'm not sure how your statement has anything to do with countering my point.
-Would wrangle comedians together for a comedy tour, and you'd take a huge cut when all you'd do is announce the comics. Just because it may take an hour to announce a person's name doesn't mean this was a by the minute rate.
*saw john's comedy show in tempe, he did a great 30 minute set. very funny, again, your review is full of mis-conceptions, probably those that howard spewed, you sound like a parrot.
Again nothing to refute my point of him being a cheap dude, not paying the comics their worth. Colin Quinn and others have talked about this over the years. Also a plug whore like Jackie the Jackass as far as where his crappy band is going to p-p-p-play.
-You might be a nice guy off the show but you rubbed me and 90% of the Stern fans while you were on the show. Fred didn't filter the mail about you, people just didn't like you.
*really, is that why john's stern spotlight was the best one ever? because he was so bad? john was great on the show & quite honestly the show is not as entertaining anymore. bring back john! if you can afford him... lol!
Holy crap! When did I say he never brought anything to the show? His interviews and arguments were definitely radio gold. However that doesn't change the fact that I and a lot of other Stern fans hated him. I liked Billy West alot more though, he wasn't a one trick pony. Okay, 2 trick pony: Stu-Stu-Stu-Stuttering and interviews.
Dude, you don't know what I enjoy about the show. Just because I dislike John and you like him doesn't mean I can't have an opinion, nor does it mean my head's up Howard's ass/or ralph. The fact of the matter is, that I find his TV Show choices terrible. He can't stop saying 'the fact of the matter is'. He's getting old, he doesn't remember names from an hour ago, and keeps mispronouncing names when he's corrected, several times. I also hate how he takes calls, tells the person they're on the air, and then proceeds to talk or tell a long story. Also the Hey Now is like 8 years old already, get a new schtick. I hate it when Ralph or other callers continue to use that saying. Just like Shmegma Dildoes before that. Keep watching the Tonight Show for that Coffee cup raise and 2 fingered salute. This movie's garbage, as is/was John's personality.
