Fast and Furious is awesome. It might be dumb, but it's awesome. Paul Walker wasn't a good actor, but man was he cool. Taken too soon :frown:

Since when is John Paul II mainstream? :D

The only pope I've witnessed actually being mainstream popular is Francis.


And while his "haters" are even more ridiculous, Clarkson does seem rather arrogant and entitled.

Nah, John Paul II was pretty mainstream and well liked. I don't know why they hate him. The arrogance and entitlement is part of his persona. It is why the show is funny and works. Personally I sort of lost interest the last few years and I think Top Gear was past its prime anyway.

People dont dislike him for how he is on the show (atleast not most), his overall celeb life is filled with scandals and obnoxious douchebagery, bigotry, bizzare comments etc.

You just hate him 'cause you're black.
Lol, dont even care enough to dislike him, just acknowledge he has said enough things to be viewed like this, like he enjoys being perceived as such, often flaunts his ignorance and prejudices, who knows maybe is just a natural douchebag. Thats things unrelated to the show too (and his public persona of the common loud idiot). For whats related to the show, his contract isnt renewed because he got violent and really abusive with a collegue.

Makes for worse tv for sure to get rid of him, but pretty much has to happen it seems.

I know why his contract is not being renewed. And unlike what people here might have expected, I do not disagree with the decision.

It's swag, he despises everything mainstream like Clarkson, facebook, fast&furious or John Paul II.
Close, but not quite. Facebook is a time suck. Fast & Furious are pretty much gayness. Clarkson has made millions off of people encouraging him to be a public douchebag.

And, well, I liked JP2. I got about 3 meters from him once -- though not close enough to stab him. ;)

well to be fair, facebook and fast&furious are both on the very top level of being shit.
Thank you.

Paul Walker is getting a disproportionate amount of posthumous love. That happens with actors. Heath Ledger went for years as just another young actor until he offed himself on drugs, at which point we were "robbed of the next Marlon Brando".

But I give Walker credit in that he did legitimately seem like a guy who tried to make the lives of those around them and the world better, which is more than I can say for 95% of his ilk. Clarkson is a blood-sucking vampire on the public by comparison.

Fast and Furious is stupid.
This too.

He has insulted half the world as part of his schtick and has been paid handsomely for his bigotry.

Oh that is true, but for some reason I dont take the BS he says on the show seriously, I just presume he plays up the common generalizing infantile idiot for tongue in cheek entertainment factor. But he commentates on social matters and political ones in similar manner outside his work, and thats truly something to judge him on when its in more serious setting.

facebook helps people connect with others that they might not have seen or heard of in years. it was also a vital instrument in the Egyptian revolution. it also helps a lot of people hook up.

what has swag done for the general good lately? aside from his diarrhea inducing posts :pado:

Speaking of Paul Walker, you guys need to watch Pawn Shop Chronicles. He's so fucking hilarious in that movie.


The best part is before this when they talk about why they joined a white supremacist group.

To be fair, Ledger was one of the top young talents. He was already nominated for that one gayzor movie and his Joker would be legendary whether he died or not imo.
