Judging from your videos, you aren't in a position to speak about intelligence. Your attempt to comment on such things is like a toddler trying to talk to adults about economics: you just don't have any idea what you're talking about.
heck nothing wrong with harry potter if it was written by Tolkien,
then it wouldnt be so frowned upon by people such as henry. Who think that . Just because its directed at youths that it shouldn't be enjoyed by adults. Since when do books have a age limit. your too old to read that book, what next henry . your to young to listen to records... fuck you . its open for everybody and what makes henry so wrong is his stupidity to the open mind. as hes pretty closed off
Hey now, I'm a 26 year old woman and I just have to say I enjoyed the Harry Potter series. It's entertainment for the sake of entertainment, which I think even the most intellectual types need now and then. That being said, I'm reading Journey to the End of the Night by Celine right now, which I am thoroughly enjoying, by the way. Oh, and Twilight happened to turn out to be nothing short of an abomination. I was hoping it would at least become a guilty pleasure. Nope. Sigh.
I wish I had learned about this guy a long time ago. Absolutely halarious and so true! He might be the closest thing we have to taking up after the passing away of King George Carlin.
more like "dear lord, make more women interesting and hardworking, rather than Twilight-watching, whiney bitches who piss and moan about ex-gfs that their men don't even talk to anymore, watch reruns of the Hills,read Cosmo, make duckfaces in all their pictures and lastly, don't have any aspirations outside from getting a useless rock on their finger and pumping out some tiny people"
Yeah, Harry Potter and grown up women have some kind of genetic bond science is yet to fully explain. My dumb ex used to believe Harry Potter books and movies were the epitome of literature and film... and we're talking about a 27 years old woman, for fuck's sake.
Damn, Henry's got a way with words! He knows how to deliver a punchline.
I'd say that if a guy can make me laugh and teach me something I don't know, I feel more connected to him. It's good to converse and great learning something new. It keeps you young. A guy with nothing to say is BORING, just as a chick with nothing to talk about but shopping and work is BORING!!
I don;t know why but I find alternative, geeky guys so fucking hot!!
He likes women with brains ... good ... now stop drooling all over the blonde with the big boobs. At the end of the day, all men say that they want a funny , clever girl but they all end up with the bimbo so keep your lectures to yourselves.
Actually I like girls with next to no boobs and a very slim figure. Dunno why, but it's what I'm attracted to. And yeah, a woman with brains will turn me on more than a bimbo. Seriously, if you are an intelligent woman don't be afraid to show it.
I'm assuming his dating problems have SOMETHING to do with the fact that he's been living in LA for so long. There certainly are intelligent beautiful women in the world.
harry potter is just fantasy entertainment -that's it. it's the people who take it seriously that are the intellectually stunted nerds. I enjoyed the books, but I never got anything "intelligent" out of them. I'll read rollins for that;)
or just a 1/2 assed read for someone bored at the time . not every guilty pleasure makes someone a moron , but assuming that one is because of it indeed does . moron.
lmfao I didnt even think that was possible until I saw a vidd from 1995. Good lord ! lol
Im glad he stays singl and doesnt settle for anything. it b a shame to hav a beautiful mind and man go to waste like that on some LA girl. Then again damn... Id like to s his prfect amtch lmfao
I feel your pain, Henry. I actually met a library aid who told me she didn't read a lot! Why the hell are you there, because its so lucrative and the tips are great?
I'll have to strongly disagree. Sure Harry Potter got kids reading, and thats cool, but it got them reading some of the worst written pieces of "literature" I have ever laid eyes on.
I will agree that literature is literature, but the Harry Potter novels were hardly as amazing as everyone made them seem.
yah i know i read all the harry potter books and they're TERRIBLE...thats y i read other stuff now...harry potter kinda duped america into thinking it was the best series on earth
I have a degree in literature and I tried to read the first Harry Potter book to see what all the fuss was about, but I just couldn't get into it. Boring as watching paint dry. If kids like it, that's fine - lord knows I read some crap as a kid too (anyone remember those Choose Your Own Adventure books?) - but I'm with Henry on the 'adults' reading it.
Haha, I have about 500 of those Choose Your Own Adventure books! I remember always making the wrong choice and shuffling back to pages i had long since passed over to rethink my choices.. haha
I am familiar with it. "I was at a waffle house, im not proud of it..." Is one of the better known ones. I apologise for saying shut up, but I found your reply annoying. You see, you misunderstand PrincessAnne01's use of the word 'classic'.

This dude is going to have a tough time finding a woman like that in L.A.
Should move to a town where the weather is shitty, has one movie theater that only plays the classics, basic of the basic cable, and a population of around...errrr...500 or less.
Fuckin' hilarious! Any time I see a women reading it's a fucking celeb mag, cause apparently it's real (!!!!!!!!!!!) Anytime I see guys read, it's about football. (!!!) I've learned that the only thing woman want is a man that listens to them and stands by them, but have you ever met one that didn't judge you on how you look?
and i spose judging ALL women by the fact that you may have seen a large majority reading celeb mags means non of us read! - thats not judemental at all...
the only thing i want from a man is the intelectual staminar to keep up with me
I've read it and sadly, we're very much in the minority. I've also spoken to her on the phone. She's amazing. People like her should be running things. Best comment I've seen in a long time!
WTF? When I dated guys THEY were the ones who never read. Now that I date women I find most of them read. Must be a straight woman thing. Straight LA woman thing...Hmm.
If Henry wants an intelligent woman, a woman who reads, then firstoff he's got to stay away from the groupies! And come to NYC, out here there are plenty of women that you can see right on the street with serious books in hand, including me! lol. He can come and take his pick!
Henry Rollins will never find that "tell me 10 things I don't already know - have something in there - one of them readers" kind of a woman...For Christ sakes, he's Henry Rollins.
No he's not gay. I'm a big fan of Henry and quite familiar w/ Tom Leykis, I gotta tell you, they have some similarities that would make you think they're cut from the same cloth.
There's a big difference between "look like we got ahselves a reada'!" and "I want one o' dem readus, that's what ah want." Both in a southern style accent, that's all. They're in entirely different contexts and with entirely different meanings. On top of that, Henry's imitating an archetype, and Bill Hicks is imitating a redneck trucker. It doesn't even pass for a reference, much left a lift.
Judging by the creative genius of his id (dazed n confused... now that's got to be really original!) I'm surprised he'd even deign to view something so goddamn pedestrian as Henry Rollins. Now... run along little boy and do something really useful, like defuse a bomb with baseball bat. Henry Rollins is the paradigm of social commentary and I, for one, worship at his altar.
a day and a half?....no, i opened my email and saw your retarded message and simply typed a response. i don't sit by my comp waiting to see what some henry rollins fucktard has to say. beast in the basement silly boots?...wtf.....
Sorry my retarded message took so long to get through. But, happy to see you're not just sitting by your "comp" waiting for my replies. And, even happier to see you've adopted my "fucktard" reference. Grasshopper is learning more quickly than I'd hoped. Oh, you do make me smile. And how goes it with the beast in the basement? Henry still rocks. And, you, my friend still suck.
scroll down douchebag. i'm the only one used "fucktard". therefore, you my young asswipe, are the student. just further proof that henry rollins, and his fans, are all taint lickers. i hope you're making notes, when you can snatch the pebble from my hand....it is time for you to go.
Oh dear, I see I've caused confusion. Meant to say I noticed your use of the word I've been a fan of for years. Figured you'd taken note of it while trawling YT for my other vid comments. And, I'm only a student of those with something meaningful to teach. And, you, dazed with your deteriorating vocabulary and fondness for name-calling, do not fall into that category. Henry, on the other hand does.
ya, i'm looking at your other comments on youtube.....we all are, because you're sooooooo interesting. why can't you see it?.....henry rollins sucks balls.
Okay, dazed, just stick a fork in me, I'm done. But, I believe you may never come 'round. I'm happy you find me interesting, but you and I both know that Henry does NOT suck balls. And, if you hate him and his admirers so much, why not just go away? I sense you're a fan with an internal conflict. It's okay, dear, I'll be the first to welcome you over to the side of reason when you're ready. Do let me know.

if i could get the list of ppl that paid to see this, along with their contact info. i could sell them anything. they gotta be the dumbest collection of ppl ever assembled under one roof.
Well, I didn't pay to see this, but happily would have. Henry is a rebel poet-genius in letters ten feet tall, and if you can't appreciate that, you're not worthy to hear him speak. Go ahead, though, try to sell me something. I dare you.
so everyones dumb as fuck and reads harry potter at... what age is henry right now, lmao. i'd be happy and im sure he would, without having dumbasses like that around. oh and check out his poem 'i know you' and you shall ralise that he wouldnt give a fuck if he has to be lonely one more day of his life. thank you
his delivery sucks...and so do his jokes. He was in a successful hardcore punk band, they ran out of ideas, so now he's trying something new now. That's fine and dandy but please do me a favor and keep it off television.
Hero worship? I respect the guy for having the balls to take intellectualism into an artistic arena that is starved of it - nothing more, nothing less. What offends me is that there are a million stand-ups more deserving of your criticism, but for the sake of some petty personal grudge, you want to spend your day stepping on Rollins. Intellectualism has a hard enough struggle to find a voice in popular culture as it is...but that doesn't mean jack shit to you, does it?
Rollins isn't an intellectual. Is this entirely lost on you. If you're comparing Rollins to superfical comedians on the Tonight Show, then yeah, he looks smart, but who wouldn't? Its typical lazy American culture that pats themselves on the back because they watch the Daily Show and believe it to brillant.
The worst part is, you can't even be bothered to critique Rollins' work on an intellecual level - you have to attack him with cheap insults, dumb generalisations and childish sarcasm. What's the fucking point? What are you trying to achieve? What huge favour are you doing to the world by convincing people that Henry Rollins just "pretends" to be a well read, thoughtful man with a passion for knowledge and social/political debate?
Dumb generalisations, garethac put the stones down, your house is made of glass. Where is the social/poltical debate your making reference to? This isn't about changing the world, it amuses me to talk to people so infantile that they 1. identify Rollins as an intellectual 2. Get completely offended by having the reality that he is not pointed out to them.
Way to go on ripping a guy who isn't known for attempting comedy. As soon as David Cross or any of the other comedians you have a crush on put out around a dozen albums and tour with a band for about 20 years, I might consider them in the same league of entertainers as Rollins.
You know what? I am past fucking caring what you think and why, joshsowords. Please, carry on dissing Rollins - knock yourself out. I for one know you have nothing worthwhile to say about him, and I'll be ignoring your posts from now on. Good luck to you.
Thanks, I was getting tired of having to explain good comedy to someone who hasn't even heard of David Cross. However, I 'm really going to miss your insight, its as if like Rollins you have little, if anything to say.
Don't reduce those comics to a few clips on youtube a point I've already made). That's not giving proper respect to their voice.
It's funny how you seem to hold Hicks in such high regard while calling Oswalt & Cross joke blowers. Both Cross & Oswalt have in the past toured with Hicks, Hicks and Cross were friends. So these acts are good enough for Hicks and yet you're going to call them joke blowers?
Cross and Hicks were "friends"? Neither of us know what Hicks really thought about this guy, and anyway, Hicks had love/hate remarks for several names in entertainment, depending on the situation (Letterman and Leno spring to mind). So, your point is neither here nor there. And where do you get off accusing Rollins of "masquerading" as an intelligent individual? That remark is baseless, nothing more than shit-stirring, and quite frankly a waste of my fucking time. Go talk to someone else.
Ok, you address me in a post 'to joshsowords' and now are accusing me of stirring shit? lol, I guess Cross is lying about his relationship with Hicks in interviews and he's been mislabeled a Hicks by people unlike you, who have actually seen his act. But in reality, yeah, my point is valid. I've already explained why Rollins is a hack, I don't have to repeat myself. Just becaue you a fan of Rollins, doesn't make my critique baseless.
Look, its not fair to compare Rollins to comedians, because Rollins isn't a comedian. His act is different, its half laboured punch lines and half leftish blog ranting. Rollin's insight is mundane, because he plays into the same stereotypical discourse Bush sucks, I hate Ann Coulter etc... The only thing that disguishes him from the rest of the herd, is that he played in a punk/metal band.
Rollins doing a routine about being attracted to intelligence makes him a hack, but the comics you mentioned riffing on transexuals and pancakes makes them insightful? I don't know what personal grudge you have against Rollins, but I do know you are judging his work most unfairly. How about criticising one of the many, many stand-ups on YouTube that don't even attempt to make people think, instead of laying into one of the only ones that does?
Patton Oswalt is scathingly literate, his act is filled with literary allusion, he doesn't resort cheap memes 'I like books', he's more subtle in his delivery, he leads his audience somewhere in his act. I don't have a grudge against Rollins, I find unimpressive, it amuses me people look up to this guy. All those other lame comedians aren't masquerading as someone insightful now are they?
If you like Henry Rollins, be sure to check him out on Last Call with Carson Daly tonight. That's Thursday night, May 10, at 1:35am (technically Friday morning), on NBC!
Seriously, this man has done it all. Even if you may dislike his comedy, it doesn't fucking matter. This is the man that replaced Keith Morris. This is the man that sang for Black Flag, and revolutionized Hardcore.

Fuckin' hilarious! Any time I see a women reading it's a fucking celeb mag, cause apparently it's real (!!!!!!!!!!!) Anytime I see guys read, it's about football. (!!!) I've learned that the only thing woman want is a man that listens to them and stands by them, but have you ever met one that didn't judge you on how you look?

No he's not gay. I'm a big fan of Henry and quite familiar w/ Tom Leykis, I gotta tell you, they have some similarities that would make you think they're cut from the same cloth.

There's a big difference between "look like we got ahselves a reada'!" and "I want one o' dem readus, that's what ah want." Both in a southern style accent, that's all. They're in entirely different contexts and with entirely different meanings. On top of that, Henry's imitating an archetype, and Bill Hicks is imitating a redneck trucker. It doesn't even pass for a reference, much left a lift.

Judging by the creative genius of his id (dazed n confused... now that's got to be really original!) I'm surprised he'd even deign to view something so goddamn pedestrian as Henry Rollins. Now... run along little boy and do something really useful, like defuse a bomb with baseball bat. Henry Rollins is the paradigm of social commentary and I, for one, worship at his altar.

Sorry my retarded message took so long to get through. But, happy to see you're not just sitting by your "comp" waiting for my replies.

Henry still rocks. And, you, my friend still suck.

scroll down douchebag. i'm the only one used "fucktard". therefore, you my young asswipe, are the student. just further proof that henry rollins, and his fans, are all taint lickers. i hope you're making notes, when you can snatch the pebble from my hand....it is time for you to go.
dazedNconfused4444 4 years ago
Oh dear, I see I've caused confusion. Meant to say I noticed your use of the word I've been a fan of for years. Figured you'd taken note of it while trawling YT for my other vid comments. And, I'm only a student of those with something meaningful to teach. And, you, dazed with your deteriorating vocabulary and fondness for name-calling, do not fall into that category. Henry, on the other hand does.

Okay, dazed, just stick a fork in me, I'm done. But, I believe you may never come 'round. I'm happy you find me interesting, but you and I both know that Henry does NOT suck balls. And, if you hate him and his admirers so much, why not just go away? I sense you're a fan with an internal conflict. It's okay, dear, I'll be the first to welcome you over to the side of reason when you're ready. Do let me know.

joshsowords 4 years ago
Hero worship? I respect the guy for having the balls to take intellectualism into an artistic arena that is starved of it - nothing more, nothing less. What offends me is that there are a million stand-ups more deserving of your criticism, but for the sake of some petty personal grudge, you want to spend your day stepping on Rollins. Intellectualism has a hard enough struggle to find a voice in popular culture as it is...but that doesn't mean jack shit to you, does it?
garethac81 4 years ago 2
Rollins isn't an intellectual. Is this entirely lost on you. If you're comparing Rollins to superfical comedians on the Tonight Show, then yeah, he looks smart, but who wouldn't? Its typical lazy American culture that pats themselves on the back because they watch the Daily Show and believe it to brillant.
joshsowords 4 years ago
The worst part is, you can't even be bothered to critique Rollins' work on an intellecual level - you have to attack him with cheap insults, dumb generalisations and childish sarcasm. What's the fucking point? What are you trying to achieve? What huge favour are you doing to the world by convincing people that Henry Rollins just "pretends" to be a well read, thoughtful man with a passion for knowledge and social/political debate?
garethac81 4 years ago
Dumb generalisations, garethac put the stones down, your house is made of glass. Where is the social/poltical debate your making reference to? This isn't about changing the world, it amuses me to talk to people so infantile that they 1. identify Rollins as an intellectual 2. Get completely offended by having the reality that he is not pointed out to them.
joshsowords 4 years ago
Way to go on ripping a guy who isn't known for attempting comedy. As soon as David Cross or any of the other comedians you have a crush on put out around a dozen albums and tour with a band for about 20 years, I might consider them in the same league of entertainers as Rollins.
brshelton000 4 years ago
You know what? I am past fucking caring what you think and why, joshsowords. Please, carry on dissing Rollins - knock yourself out. I for one know you have nothing worthwhile to say about him, and I'll be ignoring your posts from now on. Good luck to you.
garethac81 4 years ago
Thanks, I was getting tired of having to explain good comedy to someone who hasn't even heard of David Cross. However, I 'm really going to miss your insight, its as if like Rollins you have little, if anything to say.
joshsowords 4 years ago
Don't reduce those comics to a few clips on youtube a point I've already made). That's not giving proper respect to their voice.
It's funny how you seem to hold Hicks in such high regard while calling Oswalt & Cross joke blowers. Both Cross & Oswalt have in the past toured with Hicks, Hicks and Cross were friends. So these acts are good enough for Hicks and yet you're going to call them joke blowers?
joshsowords 4 years ago
Cross and Hicks were "friends"? Neither of us know what Hicks really thought about this guy, and anyway, Hicks had love/hate remarks for several names in entertainment, depending on the situation (Letterman and Leno spring to mind). So, your point is neither here nor there. And where do you get off accusing Rollins of "masquerading" as an intelligent individual? That remark is baseless, nothing more than shit-stirring, and quite frankly a waste of my fucking time. Go talk to someone else.
garethac81 4 years ago
Ok, you address me in a post 'to joshsowords' and now are accusing me of stirring shit? lol, I guess Cross is lying about his relationship with Hicks in interviews and he's been mislabeled a Hicks by people unlike you, who have actually seen his act. But in reality, yeah, my point is valid. I've already explained why Rollins is a hack, I don't have to repeat myself. Just becaue you a fan of Rollins, doesn't make my critique baseless.
joshsowords 4 years ago
Look, its not fair to compare Rollins to comedians, because Rollins isn't a comedian. His act is different, its half laboured punch lines and half leftish blog ranting. Rollin's insight is mundane, because he plays into the same stereotypical discourse Bush sucks, I hate Ann Coulter etc... The only thing that disguishes him from the rest of the herd, is that he played in a punk/metal band.
joshsowords 4 years ago
Rollins doing a routine about being attracted to intelligence makes him a hack, but the comics you mentioned riffing on transexuals and pancakes makes them insightful? I don't know what personal grudge you have against Rollins, but I do know you are judging his work most unfairly. How about criticising one of the many, many stand-ups on YouTube that don't even attempt to make people think, instead of laying into one of the only ones that does?
garethac81 4 years ago
Patton Oswalt is scathingly literate, his act is filled with literary allusion, he doesn't resort cheap memes 'I like books', he's more subtle in his delivery, he leads his audience somewhere in his act. I don't have a grudge against Rollins, I find unimpressive, it amuses me people look up to this guy. All those other lame comedians aren't masquerading as someone insightful now are they?
