1009: Getting Spooked

[bluecrucial]

Love this clip about Entourage:

Love both Myq and Myka as guests, and having them together on the show was hilarious. I was freaking out my fellow bus passengers this morning by grinning and laughing like a fool.

Isn't it silly for Spooky not to call in because he doesn't want to talk about the book? So don't talk about it. Unless Spooky downs truth serum, he doesn't have to say anything about the book that he doesn't want to. And since Spooky claims Keith doesn't know anything about the book, there's no inflammatory information for him to bring up. And isn't the book not really high on the totem poll of things to discuss with Spooky?

I think even spooky knows it silly, but its just an easy on the spot excuse. I just find it unbelievable how someone who boasts about how real men are from Texas and how your not a real man if you haven't been in a fist fight is so afraid of direct confrontation. Not only in this situation, but remember when he emailed his room mate about his grievances as opposed to directly talking to the person he actually lives with? I also recall him telling a story about how when he was art school he disparaged those who were directed to critique his work, because they wouldn't actually critique it, but simply say "that's a nice drawing" or whatever and he would have preferred genuine criticism, but clearly he couldn't have handled it anyways so he should just settle for "that's a nice picture" for as long as he's an artist, because clearly any sort of criticism no matter how sugar coated or surrounded by compliments will all but consume him.

All I was saying is, what Keith said on the show was nothing new. It was said on the aforementioned episode. That is a fact.

So, according to your logic, the manly thing to do would be to...I guess call in and talk about the things I do not want discussed on the air? Talking to someone face to face is the pussy way out to you? Explain, please, how you arrived at these conclusions, because I am just not following.

Oh, and link me to this "critique" that I had so much trouble with?

When exactly did I say talking to someone face to face was the pussy way out?

Have you talked to Keith face to face by the way? Or did you take the manly way out and just bitch and moan to the chat and make excuses to avoid actual confrontation?

And as for the critique i was referring to Keith's critique that you "don't draw faces good"

From what was told:

1. You didn't call keith when you were back, and he didn't know you were back, but you complained that he didn't call you
2. You refuse to call him, because he "should call you."
3. You are mad that he read a letter between Mike and you on the air, even though you had posted parts of that letter on the forums. He doesn't need your permission. If you don't want information getting out. Don't write it! And especially don't edit it before posting, that's just ASKING for someone to clear the air!
4. Keith did invite you to come to the hot dog eating contest where you could have had a face to face discussion. (OK, chemda invited you, but you know that chemda IS keith when it comes to invites)

Now, you may have had some beef at the beginning, but you're looking rather silly right now. I don't think that Keith should drag you through the mud, but your response has become very childish and isn't helping you in the court of KATG public opinion.

There are NO should's in life. There is nothing Keith SHOULD do, and nothing you SHOULD do. There are only choices and consequences. If you want to mend the friendship with Keith, you can CHOOSE to be the bigger man. Call him. And figure it out. Or you can CHOOSE to continue whining on the chat and be made fun of as you should be(there I go with the shoulds... shame on me).

Spooky is just enjoying playing the victim. Let him. It's not like this show is coming out of nowhere and all of a sudden he should feel put on the spot. His whole relationship with Keith stems from the show. His persona as "Spooky" is a result of the show. There is a history of having information come up through the show, confrontations happen on the show, and even better, resolutions happen on the show. He participates in it, and then all of a sudden he can feign being appalled because the show he actively took part in continues with him? The more he plays "little baby Spooky," the more people talk about him. What an attention whore.

Wait..... was is tis? Another great show? Yep, looks that way.
