George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[Morgus]

We get a 3day Noory-Free holiday weekend starting tonight...

[Major Ed Damien]

I don't listen that much to the George Snoory Show anymore (there is no C2C anymore).

I can't say I blame the Ig-noories.  A lot of people have voted with their ears.

But if you don't listen you'll miss out on a lot of hilarious unintentional stuff. 

"Bismarck, North Carolina . . . welcome to 'Coast-to-Coast AM.'

See, those two places are so far from each other.  Thousands of miles even.

"What percentage of police don't want to shoot you?  I would imagine that number is high."

You get to imagine the look on the policeman's face as he was asked that question and laugh at the idea of him telling his friends about it.  All of them then laughing.

A man who believes that oil is lubing itself in the earth forever -- the abiotic oil of our planet -- will himself be the source of unending humor.

Abiotic and idiotic humor.

That's a euphemism I haven't heard before.

Sadly, it was not a euphemism.  I bought ungauged slate years ago for a project and never got around to it.  A week ago I tore out the subfloor, two walls, the insulation and the vapour barrier.  I got new cement board down, new Roxul insulation, a new vapour barrier and got the damn slate up on one wall.  Now there is just one more wall, the toilet and the sink and a new door left before I can call the project complete.


However, I may just use "putting up a slate wall" next time I need to find a euphemism... it at least sounds somewhat intriguing- and I know now from experience that it would mean that I spent the entire night in the bathroom.

It sounds like a very unpleasant job, but it should look great once it's done.  I don't know what ungauged slate is.  Does it give kind of a rough brick look like you might have on an exterior wall, or is it more of a flat tile?  I take it ungauged means the sizes aren't consistent.

Ungauged means cheap (above all else.)  When they mine it in the wilderness they only cut it to dimension but not really thickness.  this means that I end up with a 12 X 12 tile- but it may be 1/4" thick or 3/8" thick.  It makes putting it up a little difficult.  With that said, it does have a fairly rustic look and I bought it because of the mulit-coloured textures this tile possessed.  If you buy gauged slate it makes it almost twice as expensive.


I don't know that it has been unpleasant (I kind of home not, as I have lots of more to do through the house...)  I just need to get this project complete as I am really good at almost finishing and then leaving it for months...

Take a look at the schedule.Not much paranormal or weird

'the weird' is always unscheduled and involves our dear host

[size=78%]We also learn that for many years George invites all of the unfortunates in the nieghbourhood who have no place to go to come over for Thanksgiving.[/size]

As if it isn't bad enough being alone at Thanksgiving that you have to put up with dinner with George. Another attempt to promote the myth of altruistic George.
He also very oddly told us how grateful he is for his daughters. He loves cookeen, he said. Cookeen is easy. It's the cleaning he hates. But that's where his daughters come in: they do it all for dear old dad. Or, as Noory put it, they 'swoop through the house'. Very uncomfortable. I wish he'd just shut up about his fami[size=78%]Y and his personal life. It's always downright creepy.[/size]

So.....we really do love to listen to Snoory? I don't get the backwards psychology here. If you look at this forum in an alternative way, it could actually be a boost to the George Snoory Show. Right?

[narcissist noory]

correct..around here we wouldn't trade uncle george for anything!

The ripping out insulation part didn't sound very fun.  Maybe I'm just not a big fan of doing construction work, and I can certainly empathize with the not finishing things.

A caller last night wanted to tell George about the communal dinner in his local community. A call for local radio rather than C2C, but that's another discussion. It was quite touching, though. Out of a population of 500, about 400 turned up. 20 turkeys had been donated, etc etc. It was a bit overcrowded, but fun, said the caller.
Noory's response? Yes, overcrowding can be good. For instance, when he does his 'major events' around the country, folks just 'pack into those theaters'. He's done for the year, now, but he'll be 'kicking back up' in January. And, by the way, if you want to follow where he's speaking you can go to....and just click on.....and so on. We all know the oft-repeated self-promoting mantra.
The caller was gone, forgotten. The content of his call, from a senior citizen on a Thanksgiving Open Lines, ignored and trampled over for the greater need of Joorch's bloated ego.

[GeorgieForPresident2216]

I actually thought last night's show was a pleasant surprise.  Not really captivating but good messages all around.  I even thought George had some pretty good insights and comments during the latter half, so I've been trying to hold off chastising him today. 

He really does come off as self absorbed when he speaks though.  He needs to stop doing that.  I think Eldon Taylor was probably saying to himself 'I can hardly wait to see what good will come of this', the mantra he espoused on the show for when things go wrong, quite a lot last night.

I think what struck me the most was at the end of the interview.  Taylor told George "I don't just want to give thanks to you, George.  I want to tell you I really appreciate you and all the great things you do...."  He went on but I forget the rest of it.

The natural response would be to return the compliment, right?  George just said "Well Thank you.  Up next open lines" or something to that effect.

And then there was the whole bit in NoMoreNoory's post about sleeping off the Tryptophan high while his daughters swing by to clean up.  He even said that's why he has them over.

George just needs to stop talking about himself and keep it professional.

I happened to have heard this during the five minutes I had it on last nite.  Agree that it sounded weird.  I got a mental image of some Dickensian flophouse, with grimy-knuckled maidens scouring the floors.

Yeah, I have to confess that I really do love to listen to George Noory.  There isn't anything psychological nor backwards about it.
 
His show amounts to a pure guilty pleasure for me.  That's because some stupid things can be funny as hell:  Jerry Springer guests, pro wrestlers, faith healers, "The 700 Club," infomercials for Hair-in-a-Can https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GeF7A05zQ8, early '70's porn and whoever made the horror film "Manos:  The Hands of Fate."  See, "Manos" already means "hands" in Spanish so the dumbass who made the movie ended up calling it "Hands: The Hands of Fate."   

I really hate it when George is not on, like tonight.  No guest host possesses big enough feet to fit in those giant flappy clown shoes of his.  You simply never know what goofiness may squirt its way out from the numbnuts portal under that dyed mustache.   But you know it will -- as surely as abiotic oil will replenish itself.

"Do all cultures use numbers?"  Now where else can you listen to a man with a national radio show ask stupid shit like that?  The answer is nowhere. 

"What about the Devil?  Could he be the Messiah?"

"The Second Coming... will that be Jesus or someone else?"

This isn't a four-year-old trying to understand the world around him.  It's a man in his middle 60's wearing a jet-black wig and bearing a remarkable resemblance to Saddam Hussein.

So, yes, I hope I'm helping to boost George Noory's show.  I pray he doesn't leave any time soon.  He seems to be in good physical -- if not mental -- condition.  His awful mental condition, though, is what makes the show so wonderful. 

It seems to be a witches' brew of senility, alcoholism and congenital stupidity -- but trying to figure out exactly what his problem is makes a great guessing game for we, his open-mouthed listeners.  Hope this helps.

He loves cookeen, he said. Cookeen is easy.

You really have an ear for his pronunciation of certain words.

I also noted that when listening. A tale apropos about helping others and be thankful and funny because they needed more room turned nto a Norry "all about me" and "my big events." And then, maybe later (forget) a comment.about all the "events" he has done but not more for a while and then about more "events" next year? (SO...what ever happened to that C2C charity, George?!?) Positive thinking guy was ok. Basic stuff but ok, but even he had time time keeping Norry from going to race riots or "everybody is going nuts" stuff
Ps: has anyone bought the Holiday Album "Coast Style"? Im waiting on torrent because they didnt call Christmas. War on Christmas!!

GFP, you know I'm your #1 fan, but this is a GNS punishable offense.  However for time served (listening to Noory), I shall look the other way this time, and let you off with a warning.

What happened to the Beyond Belief help fund or whatever that was?

Don't worry, you're amongst friends.  We won't let the bad man get you.

Please help.. I think he may have sucked part of my brain through a portal.  I really did think he made a lot of sense last night while talking about Ferguson.

Hmm. Very, very wary of wandering into the Ferguson morass here, but it wouldn't go away last night, especially in Open Lines. I found Joorch's constant editorializing increasingly infuriating. In response to a caller from Cleveland who brought up the Tamir Rice case, he suggested 'that kid' shouldn't have pointed his gun at the cops. Joorch told us he played with his cap gun constantly as a boy, 'but I never pointed it at a police officer. Ever.' If Rice had put the gun down, said Noory, the cops would have seen it was a toy and sent Rice on his way with a scolding. If you take a look at the video that has emerged, you'll see how ignorant and how far off the mark Noory's simplistic sermonizing is. His general conclusion that none of this would happen if folks would just learn to do what cops tell them to do had me close to engaging in a bout of expat style radio (or iPhone) destruction.


Oh, and how many times will he have to listen to the guy on the phone to his boss witnessing the old ladies beating up the guy who ran the red light before he realises it's an obvious fake? Closed out the show with it again 'to give us a chuckle'

[narcissist noory]

Connie Willis-" I wonder if George is out shopping or is sleeping tonight?"

I would say he's stuffing his hole with turkee sammiches

[zeebo]

... I really did think he made a lot of sense last night while talking about Ferguson.

Don't get me started ... I'm ... moving on.  Yep no more ill-fated forays into the politics thread, for now.  Haven't seen that much angst and turmoil since the Art Bell Quits thread.   :

As soon as George started to introduce that bit I knew what was coming and had to turn it off.  I find his fondness of that recording kind creepy and sadistic.
