Art Bell

[ponyboysunset]

That's what I'm saying. You used to be cool before you got so old. 

It will happen to you, just wait. Muahahahahahahahaha.

[bellNwhistle]

It will happen to you, just wait. Muahahahahahahahaha.

If your age (as seen in the tat thread) is considered "old", then we're all screwed. 

[Juan]

Well, just in case there really IS a stalker, why would Heather want to give him a picture of herself?  She'd be nuts to do that.

This reminds me - have all of you female newbies sent your photographs to White Crow?

[Richard Groyper]

Good morning fags BellGab!

[Richard Groyper]

It will happen to you, just wait. Muahahahahahahahaha.

Aren't you 40? Do you have your..affairs in order? 

[ponyboysunset]

Allow me to answer you all,

you're all screwed! Now get off of my lawn, give me my metamucil, and make sure to turn my stories on before you leave. 

And stop trying to get a cut of my vast estate. I know all of you want to move out of your Mom's basement, but I assure you that you would only be moving into a different basement if I named you as a possible heir.

Ha. I was just teasing her because it was just her birthday. She was  working the other day when I heard her do some cool self depricating humor so I thought it would be OK. Sorry to offend you! 

[BobGrau]

...And stop trying to get a cut of my vast estate...

How many "that what she saids" am I allowed per day?

[ponyboysunset]

How many "that what she saids" am I allowed per day?

No limit sir.  :

[BobGrau]

No limit sir.  :

Hmph. She never said that.

I imagine you as Maggie Smith, the Dowager Duchess on Downton Abbey. You are 'PBS' after all, right?

[bellNwhistle]

My laptop died, and I'm not signed into BellGab on my ipad.. so I came all the way down to my basement to get on my computer and say you did not offend me.

If Art had hired a profiler, he would have learned that most of his detractors herein are white males in their mid to late twenties.  They have college degrees, but have as yet to find significant gainful employment.  They tend to live in their parent's basements or other below grade abode.  They are heavy gamers, but have only modest skillsets.  They have little contact with women and most haven't been laid in years.  Their beer of choice is an A-B product.  In twenty-five years, mom and dad will have left the planet and our detractors will move into rural trailer parks and brag about how they can steal cable (or its 2040 equivalent.)

Oh my God, this is golden!

[Richard Groyper]

Oh my God, this is golden!

No females? Just 'cis' white men, huh? The feminism is strong in this one...

Most likely hiding his autism-POWERELEVEL!

[AZZERAE]

... dealing with strangers online is so much easier than "real" people).

That's why radio is such a perfect fit for Art.

Maybe he has agoraphobia.

I think he needs to do radio in order to feed his soul, and he regrets having left already.

awe thanks! You want to go to Bella haven and get some coffee? Maybe PBS can come join us and we can talk breakfast cereals! 

[AZZERAE]

First time hearing the story about Art Bell quitting his children many years ago. Would have never given him the time of day after reading he gave his daughter a copy of his book after they spoke for the first time in many years. All too similar to Julius Irving meeting his illegitimate daughter at a game and giving her a signed basketball.

The truth about Narcissists! Found this tidbit very interesting....



If a house was on fire, Art would be like George Costanza, making sure he got out first, ahead of women and children.

There's a lot of this bunk out there, whole websites dedicated to digging up Art's alleged "past".

Be careful, rule #1: Not everything you read on the internet is true!

[ziznak]

Art is the poster child for Narcissism. He didn't leave the show for anyone but himself.

Not trolling, but the track record is there. On another forum (not Art bell forum, but has a small section for Art) someone posted a timeline of Art's comings and goings... I'll share it here

i found this timeline interesting


FUCK

[AZZERAE]

Is he a Gemini? I think he is. I try not to put a whole lot of stock in all that but as a Gemini I can tell you the one thing that always rings true is this sort of wishy-washy behavior. I am guilty of it myself.

Humans in general are wishy-washy.

I don't see how you can chalk that up to the alignment of a couple stars.

[ponyboysunset]

Hell yes, fruity pebbles anyone? Wait, shit , wrong thread.

[ziznak]

I need at least 5 mg clonazepam when I come here anymore... supplimented with beer this place isn't all that bad... but come in here with a hangover... not fun

[Night Train]

It's true that not everything you read on the internet is true.

However, no one is discussing "everything you read on the internet."

Instead, the poster brought up an article in a reputable magazine that quotes Art's kids at length about how shabbily he treats/ed them.

The question is whether or not those allegations are true, not whether "everything on the internet" is true.

Nice attempt at obfuscation.

But do you have any actual evidence that the allegations in the article are false?

[Northern Nights]

You best watch it with your practical problem solving approach. One might get called a troll for that. Much like Azzerae who suggested taking the reward money and upping security and getting back behind the mic. All I have to say is how dare yew sir, how dare you come in here with your logic and solutions. 

[pumaman]

Hey Art, I am a neighbor (red rock dr) in pahrump.  Occasionally I light off firecrackers and target practice on the BLM (like everybody else here).  If I turn myself in, can I collect the $20k?

[ponyboysunset]

Hahahahahaha! It reminds me of this:

Tough crowd

[VtaGeezer]

Oh my God, this is golden!

He probably spends a lot nights in the Holiday Inn.

Wow! The stalker's finally turning himself in. Thanks, mister! Now Art can get back on the air and all our lives can go back to normal.

This is old news, yes Art has a terrible history, yet people still listen every time he comes back to broadcast.
Maybe you are a new listener and didn't know these facts, but all the old time listeners have been through this for years.

*Mind blown* Reeeeeeallly? Only some is true? Stop the presses!
