So, Scott Baio is a wingnut, losing his shit on Twitter

[LTR]

I just checked in to my Twitter account, and I follow a few token cons, along with the usual likeminded people.

One of those is Glenn Beck, along with StopBeck:

http://twitter.com/stopbeck

And I noticed him carrying on and on about Chachi being a fan of his, as if his cred goes up when some has-been actor admits to being a fan.

Curious, I checked out Chachi's page:

http://twitter.com/thescottbaio

And needless to say, he's gone Beck-style crazy. Totally off the reservation. Not to mention a total douchebag:

1. i hate Twitter

i can't figure out what most of this is.

also, why are wingnuts so drawn to Twitter.

[tomg]

2. Because anything more complex or

nuanced than 140 characters confuses them.

[Swamp Rat]

4. The 'Age of Literacy' is over.

[thelordofhell]

8. Go away......batin'

[Swamp Rat]

10. That's what I thought!

[Rex]

30. "welcome to Costco, I love you."

[Gabi Hayes]

12. When God is hungry He reaches for a BAWAMBA Bar!

Idiocracy has been here for about eight years, yes?

Mike Judge was 500 years ahead of his time with that one.

[Rude Dog]

13. Yeah, about that...

http://xkcd.com/603/

This comic is the single response to anyone, ANYONE, using Idiocracy as though it were some sort of prediction or worthwhile social comment.

[Swamp Rat]

19. Too bad it isn't funny.

:(

[hlthe2b]

17. It is simly so inane... I too don't get it...

Maybe the subject-specific twitter feeds are more interesting?

[JI7]

20. i can see cases where it would be ok like with the Iran protests

and people wanting to give regular updates. and similar things like some breaking news .

but in the OP example they just seem to be using it as regular conversation but without having to worry about creating an argument with points to back it up. and of course just crying about the liberals. like Grassley did. and it just sounds stupid .

[Drunken Irishman]

3. You mean the guy who hasn't had a career since the 80s?

[Roland99]

5. Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize is a sad day for America?

What a pathetic piece of shit has-been.

[Webster Green]

6. When he was in his prime, he was absolutely..

..fucking lame.

Now he's just really pathetic.

What a dick! :eyes:

[anneboleyn]

7. Charles in Charge was a major jerk on his "reality" show about how he couldn't commit to any woman

He considered himself far too handsome and eligible, etc. to chain himself (not an exact quote, but close) to any one woman. Guess that has changed now that he is with someone who likes pumpkin-scented candles and can put up with his sh*t. Lucky girl (major sarcasm alert!)

[chatnoir]

26. Oh, i saw that show a few times -- the guy was a major dick

Could not for the life of me imagine what woman would ever deal with his douche-ness, big-beyond-all-sense ego and his has-been tv sitcom self.

A total loser.

[Vickers]

9. Damn...name-dropping "Chachi" is probably the saddest thing I've ever heard.

:( :( :( :( :(

[TicketyBoo]

11. I loved "Charles in Charge."

I liked Scott Baio. Can't stand his politics, though.

Sometimes it's hard to separate a person from his politics.

I'll be wrestling with this for a bit, although, as most have said here, it's rather moot, since you don't see him very often these days.

Residuals are grand, I guess.

[Warren DeMontague]

14. Scott Baio is still alive?

Wow. Blast from the past.

[hfojvt]

15. yeah, i guess he married Joanie and took her name

now he's a moran.

[Stardust]

16. LOL

[Kahuna]

18. I watched some of his reality show. It was clear he was a d-bag. Why..

is it that all talentless, washed-up, has-been actors are repukes? There has to be a correlation there. I think it's because as the Prez would say, they're BITTER.

[marmar]

21. All the D-list, asshole, idiot "celebrities" are Repugs.....

Like this prize......

[krabigirl]

22. What a loser. Oh, and his wife sounds real "classy."

Some bleached bimbo who calls Obama a "sh#tf#ck." The stupid is strong with these two.

[chatnoir]

27. Yep... One of Hef's gfs at one point or sth

The epitome of taste and class:

[Darth_Kitten]

28. Way over processed............maybe Renee and Scott should worry more about their kid....

hmmm, I wonder if they boinked before marriage? That's not a family values type thingy to do.

[Pool Hall Ace]

31. Oh my, in that photo I can just see

the Styrofoam® packing peanuts that make up her brain. :silly:

[flvegan]

23. Does Joanie still love him though?

[Starry Messenger]

24. Watching wingnuts lose their shit on Twitter

is one of the best reasons to have an account.

[Cha]

25. Scott Biao may not be a republicon but he is

an idiot. Not everyone is capable of sorting out the facts from the bullshit.

[Darth_Kitten]

29. What kind of idiot names their kid "Bailey Baio"?.......

I guess the twit wife is just as dense as old Scotty.

[Stevenmarc]

32. Too bad he wasn't more like Mackenzie Phillips and screwed his dad for years, then the tweets..

might be worth reading

[Raineyb]

33. Scott who?

He's been a has-been for years.

[Pool Hall Ace]

34. OMG he thinks his wife should appear on Meet the Press?

Along with who? Miss Teen South Carolina and Carrie Prejean?

[Arugula Latte]

35. It's interesting to me how many no-talent has-beens become rabidly rightwing.

Scotty, Dennis Miller, Ted Nugent, Bo Derek, the dude from "Coach" (who said when he was on food stamps and welfare nobody helped him out!), Kirk Cameron (Psychochristian, que-ce que c'est?), Morgan Brittany, Stephen Baldwin (not really a has been, more like a never been), etc., etc.

[Sapphocrat]

36. Desperate for attention.

Which I guess is a consolation prize for respect.

What a fuckwit. (Baio, that is.)

[NMMNG]

39. When your "fans" leave you,

There's nothing like knowing your imaginary friend loves you forever and ever, and that you're better than all of those dirty, sinful, immoral, unsaved types. (Even if you don't go the god route you just set yourself up as the arbiter of everyone else's morality. Great fun and you can imagine yourself everyone else's superior because you give lip service to "traditional values".)

[asdjrocky]

37. Didn't he beat up Joanie?

[Lisa0825]

38. Funny video I was sent today with Baio..... doesn't sound like a conservative to me...
