Art Bell

[Fields_of_Tron]

... Another example of the Facebook mentality...People need to fucking unplug. If you take any of this "Art Versus The Internet" bullshit personally, or think you are best buds with a guy who lives in the desert because you heard his voice on the radio, it's time to emerge from your basements and get some fresh air.

What you said.   That was partly the point of the last post I made.  The only person this has any direct affect on at all and has a right to bitch is MV; the rest need to just shut the fuck up about it and get on with life. 

Just like cyber bullying is a farce created in people's minds; a crutch for the weak-minded who let mere words control their very essence, so is all the butt hurt that was flying around here.  Turn off the damn PC and go out to eat, see a movie, go hiking with some friends; do SOMETHING instead of wasting away and getting all bitchy over some shit that has absolutely no impact on your waking life.   
I'm glad Art did the show, it was like the old days and it gave me a chance to relive one last time what I think is the closest radio/internet radio has been since Dream Land and Coast to Coast of the 90's.

Art, if you see this, thanks for the fun.  Your show was the only thing I listened to for years.  No talk show host grabbed my attention like that, so you did your job.  Maybe end on a high note and message MV and go your separate ways, logically speaking.  I personally appreciate what MV has done here and this forum will thrive.  Someone mentioned changing the name to "Radiogab" and I think that is the way to go. 

Flame this, berate it, call me self righteous, I really don't care.  Any insults are thrown my way are most definitely welcome because I eat that shit for breakfast every morning.


Cheers

You sound a little butthurt that he didn't respond to your wide stance at the airport bathroom. MV's not a cheap floozie. He likes to be wined and dined.

wined and dined huh? some mcnuggets and box o wine?

[jazmunda]

Good to see you back and posting, Jaz...we thought you left us for 4chan or Coast Insiders...;-)

Truth be told I was tossing up between Photoshop director for Jimmy Church on account of having many images of Art Bell already cropped or Falkie's YouTube assistant as I have intermediate video editing skills and know my way around YouTube and Apple products without the need for Dummy books. If anyone is hiring PM MV.

Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Rose Parade, eat your heart out.  "Driver!  On to the next 7-Eleven.  I MUST have my turkee on whole wheat sammich!"

What makes me laugh is the taped on piece of paper on the side of the car with Jorch's name. Pure class.

Bell and Sean Penn should form a mutual-sympathy club so they may cry together about being so unloved and misunderstood.  Pathos in the desert...good title for a novel.

There you go! You seem like a classy guy.

No one can blame you for Art's most recent "retirement"... You are vindicated!

[Inglorious Bitch]

Pathos in the desert...

That's Art's next show.

[RealCool Daddio]

Hell no.  This time around he didn't call in often enough.  Remember this:  when Art quits, its never his fault - it's Jazz's.

Burbank's WTF moment.

[Value Of Pi]

Devastating.  And it hurts like hell.

I'm not against you Art, but something very bad has ahold of you right now.  I'm, immediately sending prayers of protection and healing your way.

MV, I have your back.

I'm in shock.  Two people that I adore are at odds with each other and it's tearing me apart.  Prayers of Courage, Wisdom, and Grace I send to both people.

Still, on a seemingly unrelated note, it's relatively nice to be able to wake up and be pained by this situation as opposed to, say, whether your town will be bombed by the Russians, invaded by Assad or massacred by IS that day. We're lucky to be occupied for part of the day with AB issues.

[Value Of Pi]

The absurdity of all of this is multiplying at an unbelievable rate.

Yes, Art has now adopted a cause, or a cause has adopted him, or both. Myself, I thought years ago that if someone forced me to go into politics, my cause would be eradicating door-dingers -- people who ding your car when opening their car doors. Easy to get elected on that platform, but then you're stuck being a politician.

Will eradicating trolls be Art's new passion, replacing radio?

[MV/Liberace!]

Let's all be reasonable here. If the same or similiar accusations made against Art and his family were made against MV and his family that person would be banned and posts removed.

has that happened?  no, it hasn't.  you've presented a hypothetical situation and a conclusion to it, all from your own head, to validate your opinion. 

If I can speak freely, MV sounded a little butt-hurt that it was Art (not Keith) that had the spec-sheet removed from the DMDN. (listen to the latest Gabcast)

of course i was upset to learn it was art who jerked our show around.  why shouldn't i be upset by that?  you're implying that my every decision has been guided by that event, and you're wrong.

For those of you that are shocked and upset with Art....wow, unbelievable.

i can't imagine how you find it unbelievable people are upset with art.  if you had just placed this at the front of your post, i would have known to scroll past the rest.

[GuerrillaUnReal]

I'd definitely see Art's point of view and be more impartial if Art didn't pull the bitch move of threatening people. Especially in such an illogical bitch way. If Art would have asked privately or brought his case here how he doesn't appreciate it, then I think everyone would be a lot more understanding and sympathetic. But trying to privately threaten someone is such a bitch move that it just makes Art look like a sad little bitch. To me that's cherry on the bitch sundae Art has given us the last few weeks.

I get his fee fees are all twisted up but act like an adult. Especially after Art wrote some cry baby bitch post about never coming back here. Then less than a month later he's threatening people on here?

[MV/Liberace!]

First I know MV said to George Noory that if he complained about a post he would remove it (whichever Gabcast it was) so Art requesting the same thing shouldn't be an issue.

i never, ever told george that.  i told him that if he pointed to something libelous, it would be removed.  not that i'd remove posts "if he complained."

[Inglorious Bitch]

because I eat that shit for breakfast every morning.

That and a dick. Haha! Just joking.

This is what I have for breakfast when I'm on Bellahaven.  Mmm...sausages.....

[GravitySucks]

But you DID say you were married to a terrorist.

[trostol]

that does look..tasty..but i'd replace the sausages with bacon..a never ending pile of bacon

[MV/Liberace!]

nobody will dispute that.  nobody.

[Inglorious Bitch]

I was trying to be provocative with a thinly veiled penis sausage reference.

I also have it on good authority that he really likes it, when you unduly kiss and tongue his ass...

No, no... please, feel free.

[MV/Liberace!]

i've been writing this about myself on restroom walls for years.

[MV/Liberace!]

..unduly...

heh heh

[Sehnzeleid]

Find it funny the host of a show that constantly advocated outsider thought would get pissy over his fans applying the same to him. How dare us.

You know, if you posted this kind of plea for decency in the George sucks thread, or the Falkie thread, I might buy a bit of what you are peddling.  If you had the guts to go after (Redacted) for some of the things she posted about Noory, for instance.  But nope, it only seems to matter when Art is the victim - everyone else is fair game, but Art needs his balls gently cupped or he can't broadcast anymore?  Gimme a fucking break.

I'm still for giving Art a pass. Granted, his behaviors of late are hard to understand. Explaining the reasons could only be done by Art, and his attempt to do so has been... bewildering.

So now, what? In some sense of fairness, does the GNS thread get stripped because there had been a long standing appreciation and desire for Art to continue? Sorry, but the two persons are not the same and the reason for contempt is different as well.

If the premise is, anyone that slighted noory can no longer hold Art in better standing, I would disagree. My dislike of noory was nurtured for more than two years of poor performance. Over the next several years other issues arose, including stealing of guests and sending "trolls" here.

We have learned Art doesn't wear a halo. Maybe that falls more on us than him.

It seems to me that people who hero worship another person will eventually be disappointed, then hold their hero responsible.
