George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[bateman]

Damn that was a horribly produced piece of crap video. Terrible audio, sordidly edited, white balance was off and WTF kind of set was that ... looked like Tommie interrupted Dames while he was getting his makeup done.... It's beyond belief that they'd put out that kind of crap!

Quality is not a hallmark of any Noory Productionâ,,¢

His facial expressions definitely look like he'd rather be somewhere else.

And what is EX-pertly?  I've never heard anyone pronounce "expertly" that way.

Is that one of the infamous Tommie 3X5's??

Maybe Dave could sell his used 3X5's on eBay.  He could raise money for a good cause, "Dave's Charity Fund" (his own pocket).

It's weird, I often have this same feeling.  It sucks, and yet I kind of enjoy it.  I think it's because somehow Noorie makes it bad in an interesting way.  It's like a particularly bad B movie, that fails but does so in such curious ways that it actually becomes oddly entertaining.  Also sometimes a guest will get through some interesting thoughts, in spite of the Noorie's mental interference patterns.

I agree:  sometimes it's oddly entertaining, even the times that George is truly dreadfully awful (remember how beyond rude he was to that one poor woman?... I heard about that after the fact and listened to it on YouTube the next day, thoroughly amused in a sick sort of way).  Every 2-3 weeks I hear a decent-ish c2c show.  Graham Hancock's last visit to c2c was fine, coz Graham has so much interesting stuff to say and George didn't interject too much.  Also, a couple of weeks ago when Andrew Basiago was on (the guy who thinks he was on Mars with Obama, and he obviously really does think this) was hugely entertaining.  While I don't like George, I don't hate him (completely) either, although he has annoyed me over having Oates on his show (he really should have known better; maybe he did not?).  For that one show, when Andrew Basiago was the guest, George actually did a decent job of directing the interview while maintaining a good balance between seeming to be taking the guest seriously while still making a few "that's an amazing story" comments (that made you think that maybe he didn't, really, take the guest all that seriously).  Not a great job, but it was a decent interview and amusing as heck to listen to someone who really, truly seems to think he was on Mars with Obama (either insane or a very, very good actor, I'm thinking).

Sometimes a cigar isn't just a cigar is all I'm saying. I pass through Vegas in a few days. (Sounds gastric). Look for the dude who's not a tourist, not drinking, gambling, or passing out escort promos and that would be me.

Sadly we won't be there for a couple months.  I hope your "movement" goes well.

Did you hear Linda Ronstadt isn't singing anymore - covered Willin'.  tough song for a woman to do.  Now I'm on a Little Feat snag.  Sweet.  I hope Art finds a way to use this music.  Bad choice for GN cuz he sucks.

Then why go?

Who sucks more: Noory or George Lucas post Empire?

Good question.  My answer is kind of weird perhaps.  As a youth I had an absolute love and obsession with everything Star Wars.  Over time, as the writing/content/production got worse and the merchandising/marketing got more shameless and nakedly money-hungry, I began to dread and loathe everything Star Wars.  I have absolutely no interest in whatever the new hyped ones are coming down the road. 

However, I still listen to Noory sometimes even though the face-palm rate is so high.  So I guess for me he gets the slight edge over Jar Jar Binks and stupid CGI-generated clone scenes, and lame Star Wars merchandise like Yoda-ears for your dog.

Wow he has a toupee for every occasion!

Now i am finding out my ticket outta here requires I buy an xm radio.  That sucks. My serious radio wont cut it.
What a drag. I think I'll just go with internet connection and buy a speaker.

That is a pretty good expression.  He sort of looks like that look when you get home and find your dog or cat either pooped or urped, and you're still trying to figure out what it is.

HAHA, I like the way you put that. Now I've been to flagstaff, Phoenix, and Yuma in the past, but my preacher might have issues with me if he hears I visited the city of sin lol I might come back and get a intervention!

But I promise you, if I come to Vegas, I'll supply the See-gars and we can bury the hatchet like good ole boys.

Deal, and heck bring your preacher. 

[awake]

I've been from Tucson to Tumcamcari, Tahachapee to Tonopah. And my preacher says i'm overdue for Vegas.

Best time of year for a visit.  Highs are only in the 80's and football is getting under way.  Same offer to you, let me know if you come into town it would a pleasure to buy you a drink.

If it was me all curled up with the keyboard f(laming) I'd do what works for me; If I can't be happy I try to be smart. If I can't be smart I try to be funny. If I can't be funny I try to be quiet. If I can't be quiet I try to get stoned. If I can't get stoned I try go to sleep. When I wake up, if I'm not happy, I try to start all over. But that's just me.

Of all the posts and banter, I like yours about the best aldous.
Your wit is razor sharp and you hit a bull's eye every time - BOOM!

Also, a couple of weeks ago when Andrew Basiago was on (the guy who thinks he was on Mars with Obama, and he obviously really does think this) was hugely entertaining. 

Yep that was a relatively good show.  That guest, regardless of what the true nature of his reality is, is rather compelling and George was tolerable and even occasionally helpful during that interview.  Btw Basiago was on a previous time and told a strangely credible-sounding story of going back in time to witness the Gettysburg Address.

yeah, the internet-only subscription looks like the best deal if you already have a wifi device or home PC with internet connection. no need to buy any new hardware or radio.

I checked yesterday, and they're still offering the 6 months for $25, and then you have to add $3.50 per month for internet.  So, for six months its $46 plus taxes and fees.

[nooryisawesome]

So I sent George and email and asked him why he had Oates on after Bell had banned him. I asked George if it was retaliation against Art for calling him lazy.

George's response:

Are you an idiot?

On the plus side for Dave, he finally formed a complete sentence with punctuation and everything.

Where did you see this offer??

Ed looks so sad.

So, was SciFi upset because he did not grasp the subject of this thread last night?  I PM'd him and told him to come down off the pedestal.

I received an offer in the mail, but if you call them they will either offer it to you right off the bat or you can mention the offer.

I don't think you can upset Flipper.

[shell88]

I think Scifi guy is Noory's damage control guy. Some kind of public relations gig he's doing.

He is probably a very nice person but so magnanimous.  He is more like Father Flipper. He spends lots of time here.  I wonder when he has time to work.  I can read this page at work but not post.
