Ace sold out to Nectar of the Tards?

I used to enjoy Ace railing on Mountain Dew, so I was a bit shocked to hear on ACS 20060209 that Ace took $30K from them for a commercial and he no longer talks shit about them. I personally think that the money was less for the commerical and more to have Adam quit making fun of their product. More power to Ace, but I'm disappointed to lose the mockery. "Nectar of the Tards" was one of the most memorable examples of Adam's observational comedy.

Thanks for the reference, Kevin. I'm sure that's it. I hadn't heard about the selling out until the mention on ACS.

That's disappointing to hear, that Adam sold out. And for only $30,000, too. Sad.

I remember on a late Loveline b'cast (With the host of survivor, I believe) he mentioned how the man yelled at him for calling it nectar of the tards. I guess they lost some $$ as a result of adams comments. You'll note the last year(s) of loveline were devoid of the nectar comments...

This is a more clear cut case of sell-outism than that Mother Theresa child labor incident.

For all I know, the Junior College Federation of America has paid Adam off too, so he's been silent about JC on the ACS.

So what you're saying is that Adam's dignity is for sale. That all his blustering and fire on Loveline really means nothing, and despite complaining about blowhards all day, HE is the number one blowhard of all.

What happened to his "fuck you" money he boasted about before, so he can tell "the man" to fuck off if they try to control him?

Calm down dude, it was Mountain Dew, not one of his major societal gripes.

Adam sells out every time he censors himself for money.
If he called someone an "a-hole" around here he'd get pistol whipped.
Stop censoring yourself adam! they can't arrest us all if we all smoke on the beach!

granted i'm not literally a millionaire, but if some shitty soda wanted to give my $30k to leave them alone it would be a quick decision. so it would cost him $30k to keep the satisfaction of saying mt. dew is crap. puh-leez. ace rulz.

I would wear Adam's a-hole tag like a badge of honor. I'd make a t-shirt that says "Adadm thinks I'm an a-hole." Pistol whipped indeed.

he gets to make fun of the crappy product and in return they pay him 30 grand. Joke's on Dew. Although that commercial is hard to listen to...

Adam addressed this on his show. He said as long as a company is paying him money he will take it and that's not selling out... here he's making thousands from Mtn. Dew after he insulted them for years. I think he has a point... he's laughing all the way to the bank with money from the tards.

"He said as long as a company is paying him money he will take it and that's not selling out"

That seems like the definition of selling out, taking money solely because it is offered, regardless of principles.

He won't fire Rachel or Dumbshit. He's too much a pussy and a sellout to do that. When Adam starts to grow a spine again would be a glorious day.

Adam did a pre-recorded spot twice on the 5 Sept show for...Shoreline Community College on the KNDD feed. I bet he got paid a lot less than the 30K Mountain Dew dropped.
