Thursday, September 1, 2005 at 3:09 PM I disagree with Adam on a number of things. However, if I listed them it would exceed the 200 word limit in which people start whining about posts being too long for their ADD-ridden, retarded, short attention spans to read. And I think it's pretty clear Adam is kissing the Milanokas kid's ass because he has a financial stake in the show's success. —clodhopper |

Thursday, September 1, 2005 at 3:20 PM I agree with hopper about the asskissing for monetary gain. This is what makes me most upset when it comes to Adam. I've always figured well, he's got to kiss the asses of the lame bands that come in as guests, otherwise it would an akward and uncomfortable evening, but the way he sucks the ass of this fat worthless 15 year old just makes me sick. He's got more goddamn money than the law should allow, I mean the guy's filthy fuckin' rich, but here he is sucking up to this goddamn fat bastard unfunny 15 year old.
I've always liked Adam a lot, but I gotta tell ya, my opinion of him waned on the 31st. It's sad. For 10 years I've been in solid aggreement with 99.8 percent of what he says, and felt like he and I were on the same page. Then he turns into a whore for some dumbfuck MTV show.
It's goddamned disgusting. Years from now, when I listen to old shows and look back on my fandom of Loveline, I hope I'll be able to put these sad days out of mind. Sickening. —gouranga3221 |

Edited Friday, September 2, 2005 at 6:27 AM I love loveline, and Adam. Buuuuut here are the top three things I disagree with Adam about: 1) Adam's Retarded Rants on Torture. He underestimates what we do to our prisoners and uses horrible logic by suggesting we are justified in our torture since the enemy treats our soldiers badly. Eye for an eye leaves everyone blind, folks. 2) Adam's Retarded Rants on Voting. This made me so fuming mad I was yelling at the radio. Literally. Is he actively trying to disenfranchise the American youth from the democratic process?? Any dummy can tell you that yes, one person's vote won't swing an election, but when millions upon millions take that stance, elections are lost by apathy. 3) Adam's Retarded Rants on Hiroshima/Germany bombing. Adams does know a thing or two about WWII but he should recognize that our relentless bombing of Japanese and German cities during the war was directed at CIVILIANS. We didn't kill soldiers with our atomic bombs, we killed families. The Japanese and Germans not only suffered at the hands of their own horrible governments but also by the hands of Allied bombing. I'm not saying that the Japanese/Germans wouldn't have used the A-Bomb if they had it, I'm just saying they suffered enough. An entire generation of Germans grew up without fathers because they were lost in the war. Dig on this-- in nearly every war ever fought, more civilians die than soldiers. Starvation, genocide, collateral damage, disease, et cetera.
Adam's lack of a college education isn't something he should be ashamed of, nor anyone else who lacks a degree, but it's clear sometimes that he is missing some critical/analytical thinking skills. Most of his rants tend to end with "F THEM" or "OH WHO CARES". Weak.

Friday, September 2, 2005 at 9:32 AM i don't wanna get in another torture debate cause the last one ended badly but i could go either way on it. war is not a logical rational moral thing. war and morals are like apples and oranges. if the ends never justify the means of anything than we shouldn't be at war in the first place. and don't get me wrong, i don't think war is EVER a GOOD thing. but this is the real world and our leaders suck at diplomacy and polotics so now we're in a war. an irrational immoral unsensible war. so to try to play fair at an irrational thing is kinda not practical in the real world.
voting sucks. we have an electoral college so votes don't count. i haven't checked it out but i've heard that pres bush didn't win the popular vote of the american people. it's in debate still i think.
the will of the people sucks. as a whole we're uneducated, ignorant, mean, immoral, and smell like cabbage. if every single person in america started voting for things we would probably bring back slavery. i'd vote for it. we're that ignorant. so it's probably a good thing that only educated civic minded people vote, not the majority of idiots. and ESPECIALLY not young people! they're the dumbest of all! young people don't know squat and never will until they get some life experience in the real world. that's nature's way. southpark did a funny episode on voting, i highly reccomend it.
i do agree with you that adam's rants on the atomic bomb drop are way off. his argument was something about, "which would you rather? we drop the bomb and end the war or fire bomb them?" we did both and more, not either or. we fire bombed the hell outta those poor civilians and then dropped the bombs on them. we're the only country whos ever nuked anybody! american poloticians are masters at turning the truth in the EXACT opposite direction to facilitate our own political needs. (bush is the greatest to ever live at doing this, i won't even get into that) but, what i'm getting at is, from the 50's we were told to be scared as hell of the red menace nuking us with their a bombs and we feared sputnick might be a nuke and all kinds of stuff when in fact WE are the ones everyone on earth is and should be scared of. WE NUKE PEOPLE! nobody else, just us! and we have more nukes than anybody! and, i'm not sure that japan would have nuked us either. i was watching a discovery or history channel show about pearl harbor and it said that the japs origionally were talking about bombing san francisco but than decided against it because there was a potential for too many civilian casualties so they went for pearl harbor instead! maybe they weren't as murderous immoral monsters as we were after all? i'm not trying to start an argument or anything, i'm just throwing out my thoughts on your very thoughtful post. i've been reading machiovelli for my english 1301 (junior college) class so i think my pesimistic views are probably influenced by him right now. i'll probably change my mind about everything ever time we have to read a new author. but that's why college is awesome! —adamdontgo |

Friday, September 2, 2005 at 1:33 PM Okay, what I am about to say may force me to go hide in a hole somewhere, but I'm going to say it anyway. I am going to have to agree with Republican senators like Rick Santorum when they say stuff about if they legalize gay marriage then why don't they just legalize polygamy or beastiality. However, I'm not saying that I'm against gay marriage. I'm saying that all of this stuff should be legal because the government and society should not be able to decide what is good for every individual regarding marriage and sexuality. They have to find some sort of common good, otherwise there would be no point of government, but I'm not really sure what that would be. I also am not a huge fan of the electoral college, but it really does show that not everyone's votes count. The only votes that count are ones that are in swing states. So, basically about 14 states make the decision for the rest of us. However, the electoral college is used to account for stupid people's votes. Although, that kind of backfired on us in 2000. —mandeemoo22 |

As long as you're not collecting welfare, what's the big deal? Adam's just bitter cuz he had to swing a hammer like a monkey for years.

He had a carpet cleaning job, he was a boxing instructor, he was a carpenter, and he worked with an improv group at the Groundlings (before he was banished). In fact, it was his gung ho attitude that got him in the same room with jimmy Kimmel when he voluteered to train him for a boxing stunt, just to try to get his foot into radio. He really was born with a very quick wit and the ability to craft geius-like analogies on the fly. Just think of what he couldve gone onto do if he was the kid of someone like Drew? —justinbaily21 |

You're probably just a common light democratic that votes democratic candidate no matter what the circumstances. Then you heard a movie actor was elected governor, and automatically assumed he was an idiotic boob just trying to make a radical career change. Did you ever wonder then, why he's not the butt of a thousand jokes on late night shows? Because he surprised everyone, including me, and is doing a great job, and making many tough choices, and using his own money to fix the economy among other things that Gray Davis screwed up. —Stryker311 |

Friday, September 2, 2005 at 7:54 PM Adam is correct on so many things that most people don't have the balls to say, that I have to really go looking for things he's wrong about: 1. He was wrong to marry that "c" lynette. She's as down to earth as Martha Stewart, only good looking. He violated his own common sense, because he knew/knows full well that good looking women are usually stupid as hell and a pain in the ass. Now he's stuck to one for life. Good times. 2. Adam only supports the war because he (correctly) hates the lefty morons that have fucked this country into a marxist paradise since 1933, even though the lefties are amazingly correct this time, at least about the war (even a stopped clock is right twice a day). 3. The man has no concept of faith in anything but instant gratification. 4. He's right that the NRA is too gutless to stand for medical marijuana, but Adam is too damn chicken shit gutless to support the good groups like The Marijuana Policy Project (and if he thinks I shouldn't be allowed to have my "banana clip" he can kiss my hairy ass!)

Friday, September 2, 2005 at 11:49 PM yeah i mentioned it was a southpark thing, i wasn't trying to pass it off as my own. i said i highly reccommended that episode a couple posts back. i honestly don't know the facts or the numbers of the whole popular vote in debate thing because i've never looked for the hard numbers on it. so i posted that i wasn't sure because i'm not trying to pass off bullshit here, and when i don't know the numbers i'm not gonna lie and say i do like some talking head partisan hack piece of shit who just spouts whatever their party says as god's law. the very fact that arnie hasn't been the butt of every latenight joke seems pretty rational. i'm not kiddin, everybody hates his ass but i haven't heard more than 2 bad things about him. if he was running the state into the ground i'm sure we'd never hear the end of it; but i've heard nothing. and i like the idea of a private citizen being in charge not a career polotician. —adamdontgo |

Friday, September 2, 2005 at 11:53 PM Hey, I pointed out "voting sucks. we have an electoral college so votes don't count. i haven't checked it out but i've heard that pres bush didn't win the popular vote of the american people. it's in debate still i think." becacuse it is in fact not still being debated. Bush lost the popular vote the first, and won the second time. And peoples votes do count. It's not like the electors are just picking on their own who's going to become President; people vote in their state, and whoever wins that vote, the electors vote for. —mikeyfish
hey isn't that a huge contradiction? if he lost the popular vote the first and still won the presidency than our votes DON'T count.

Edited Saturday, September 3, 2005 at 5:20 AM Peoples votes do count on a state by state basis. If Kerry had won the popular vote in Florida last time around, he'd be President. I'm not the electoral colleges biggest fan, it does have flaws, but it pisses me off when people make ignorant statements like "Peoples votes don't matter", because it's just not true. States with larger populations have more electors up for grabs. In almost every election, this balances the results out, the person with the most popular votes being the one who becomes President. Sometimes, an anomally occurs, like in 2000, but for the most part, the system works despite its flaws. If people didn't have such apathy about voting, being disenfranchised by the idea that their vote won't matter, the political landscape would probably dramatically change, and not for the worse as you seem to believe. To think that if everyone in the country started voting, that things like slavery would return, is probably the stupidest thing this side of jjgold that I've ever read in this forum. Your just tossing aside every minority in the country when you say something like that. You, someone who clearly is angry that Bush is President, must be under the mistaken belief that the majority of America is made up of little George Bushs. Have you looked outside lately? I don't know about you, but I see just as many non-whites as whites. Many Americans may be stupid, but to just toss aside the idea that people are capable of doing the right thing, is just lashing out at a country that you've grown to hate. (And yes, I did go back and read your first post, and no, I didn't vote for George Bush.) —mikeyfish |

Saturday, September 3, 2005 at 5:38 AM Not every state's votes count though, which is the problem with the electoral college. It makes it so that only the swing states' votes matter. For the rest of the states, the outcome is pretty much already assumed. You can try to vote against the usual party of your state, but it is not going to make a difference. Also, this makes it so that the candidates only focus on the swing states and seem to disregard the rest of the population. —mandeemoo22 |

Saturday, September 3, 2005 at 6:36 AM Well, that's a vicious circle; if candidates actually campagined in states that were assumed to go one way or the other, it could swing the outcome. Kerry and Bush were only seperated by 10% in California, more campaigning by Bush could have encouraged typical non-voters to come out. Your right, it is a longshot though that candidates will actually do this. —mikeyfish |

Saturday, September 3, 2005 at 8:13 AM Either is commonly accepted, but personally I think circle sounds lame and would only accept cycle. Circle also has other meanings relating to logical fallacies and diseases. —chix0r |

Saturday, September 3, 2005 at 1:51 PM Being a woman I don't agree that we are stupid because we don't know about history or just in general but I believe that if pressed on the matter he'd admit to exaggerating for comedic purposes. I also disagree that all children should be named Jake or Max. He always makes fun of callers with odd names and says they should punch their parents. Though his own nephews are Finn and Casper. When we were kids unique names got you beat up but not so much these days IMO.
(I disagree with a lot more but not enough room to go into it but I still love Adam) —stass |

Saturday, September 3, 2005 at 2:35 PM I agree that youd have to be an ego maniac and a shallow idiot, to give your kids stupid names, like these hollywood celebs do. It really just shows how even with being on tv all day, they still need more attention. Every single time they introduce their kids by their names they hope the whole room will stop and say..."What??? really??? is that ITS name????? WOW!@!!!!, I GIVE SUCH A SHIT! I CANT BELIEVE IT!!, youve made an impact on me!"
No its cool, i'll just name him Water. Yea meet my kids, Sacrifice & MoonLuna. Wait, make sure it says exactly that on the birth certificate and give Moon to the boy and Sacfrice to the girl.
Probably gonna wanna throw an extra O into Moon, in case someone accidentally spells it they way the noun is spelled, that way you can still be able to correct them every single time and keep the focus on you.
Im going to name my kids Strength & Inner Light. People should know that im strong and wise. So ill turn my kids into the walking billboards of my personality.
YOU PRETENTIOUS FUCKS. —AbsolutCarib |

Saturday, September 3, 2005 at 4:17 PM http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet/QTTable?_bm=y&-geo_id=01000US&-qr_name=DEC_2000_SF1_U_QTP5&-ds_name=DEC_2000_SF1_U&-_lang=en&-_sse=on the slavery thing was just to prove a point (obviously). at least 70% of america is white so if we had a real democracy pretty much every vote would go towards the side of white christians instead of being fair to everybody. that's kinda what's going on anyway though.
yeah i am starting to hate this country though. i was just listening to the radio and a black eyed peas song came on and they edited out "don't funk with my heart" and put in "don't mess with my heart". any country where you can't say funk on the radio supports terrorism. also the abstinence only programs that are making kids pregnant pisses me off. the scale of good vs bad things about this country are starting to tip on the bad side for me. it sucks cause i used to really love america but now i'm just fed up with a lot of crap. i think i'll put my money where my mouth is and move to australia. —adamdontgo |

Saturday, September 3, 2005 at 5:38 PM So the 99.99% (or whatever) rating of condoms' effectiveness includes the times the condoms break or fall off as the .01%, right? I think instead of saying that abstinence is 100% effective they should tabulate all the people who gave in and decided to have sex after all, then did it unsafely because they didn't have supplies. I bet the failure rate is pretty spectacular.
If people are going to give their babies unusual names, they should pick names that are just old or unpopular, like Horace or Edith. A two-year-old Horace would be a lot more unique than yet another varient spelling of Kaylee.

Sunday, September 4, 2005 at 2:22 AM Two things on which I completely disagree with Adam: He's constantly telling guys to double down on the oral sex and that "finger banging" (where'd you go to finishing school?) is something you only do in highschool. I am so glad that for the last couple years or so Drew has been pointing out that multi-orgasmic women usually don't enjoy oral sex. —catloaf |
