FIIIIRST! I WIN!

oh man, he got knocked out

Doing the things a particle can
What's he like, it's not important
Particle Man

Lame.

#3, exactly

Lesson to all non-southerners: no NASCAR jokes.

Well, at least the audience finally got a laugh.

That guy is my hero.

Pauly Shore got knocked the fuck out!

http://www.celebslam.com

Dumb hicks.

http://www.scandalsnappers.com/

Totally uncalled for,and absolutely hilarious.

http://celebriteaze.blogspot.com

All that video does is make Texans look like dumb hicks... I hope the ass in the cowboy hat is happy with himself. Dude loosen up, its a fucken comedy show, do some yoga, or maybe tae kwon do

What was Pauly Shore doing at my family reunion, and why don't I remember that happening???

Oh yeah, whiskey.

Totally impressive when a big thug punches a tiny pip squeak.

Suddenly it's a video jihad against comedians? I actually feel sorry for PS, I've always thought he was pretty funny (so shoot me...or punch me, whatever).

What a shame for Pauly

http://www.rumorficial.com

All he had to say was "Git R Done!" about 25 times and they would have rollin' MAN!!!

Clearly he was no knocked out, but knocked down... big difference.

I am disgusted with the whole scene. What is this, a new trend where audience members think they can be disrespectful to a performer? Then the performer makes some racial insult?

I sometimes feel like we are all kids still at a playground and there are many still acting badly. To those that think this is the way to act in life... grow up, you are embarrassing yourselves.

http://www.holisticwisdom.com

OK. Firstly, that was staged.

Secondly, the only humor in the entire clip was the repetition in slow-mo of the staged "hit".

holy shit. I went to high school there. Thank god i live in boston. jesus, that place sucks.

There should be a federal employment position classifed as "guy to punch Pauly Shore on the face at every opportunity."

So make this happen Washington! I want my tax dollars to work for my perverted pleasures.

Fake.

as an aside, playing odessa, texas, or "slow-deatha," and "odessolate" as its known affectionately by natives, is not exactly a career "all-time best" if you know what I mean.

There is nothing between there are all of the coahuila desert of mexico but a tumbleweed for hundreds of miles. And, it's just probably the biggest path for drugs into this country from south america.

That looks fake as shit and staged!

Because you're from Texas you're white trash? Hmmmmm. Perhaps Pauly "Dude" Shore (his ONLY claim to fame, which shows his level of brain power as well) should rethink his choice in venues. I didn't even realize there was a gathering place in Odessa (the ARM PIT of Texas) big enough to hold more than 50 people and actually print tickets.

Anyway, Pauly Shore is a complete fucktard moron, as is the the banjo-playing, swagger-walkin hick in the video clip. I bet his girlfriend got wet watching him be a bad ass on stage. Jesus. My problem here is that (a) not all people from small town Texas are white trash hicks and (b)everyone is now pointing fingers and laughing at Texas.

For that I say (in the words of the all-knowing, wise WILLOW), "I fart in your general direction."

Just goes to show how low Pauly's career has gone, if the incident is in fact true & not a setup.
As of 2:25 PM ET, I haven't seen this in the news headlines (you would think it would be after the whole "Kramer-Nigger" incident).

They were a bunch of white trash fuckoffs.

I totally tivo Pauly.

This reminds me of the time RichPort (pauly) tried to get into a political debate with me. Pretty much the same outcome.

To CantLookBackWontLookBack...

Sensitive much? He didn't say "Fuck all of Texas." He was clearly directing his comments at the jackasses in the club. I can't believe I feel sorry for Pauly Shore, but that was some serious bullshit.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i like pauly.. at least he didnt call the guy the N word, not like he could cuz the dude wasnt a black guy.. but whatever

i wonder if Pauly is gonna press charges hehe

That was much less satisfying than it should have been. Pauly Shore is a mental giant compared to those morons. I can't believe that I'm actually siding with Pauly on this one. Fucking white trash, indeed!

If this is a setup, its pretty pathetic by PS. But if this is true, what the fuck is wrong with people?

I'm hardly a PS fan but I can't condone people acting like they're entitled to act like an asshole and assault someone because they paid for a ticket. Who raised these brilliant people?

I'm from Georgia. I like the south and all...but southern pride over stupid shit like that is not necessary. The obnoxious hick got arrested I'm sure. Poor Pauly. Hick Men and their lame egos.

SET UP ! total publicity stunt. i bet he paid that guy a hundred bucks to pretend to punch him. now we're all watching and talking about pauly shore

POSTAND - not at all. I am not saying Pauly said that, either. Many of the basement-dwelling posters here did, though. That's all.

That's like me saying all New Yorkers are gutter bums, or all Californians are wheat-grass drinking homos. I wouldn't say that, and it's a serious over-generalization.

Now, I have to get back to my uncle-husband because he's re-shingling our untied-down 3 bedroom double-wide and I think my water just broke in preparation for our 5 child bein born.

Hicks are so unattractive.

http://www.oaoa.com/news/nw120106e.htm

he was suppose to do 5 shows, i wonder which that was

I would really hate to be a comedian right about now... everyone hates them anymore!!

poor guy
i'm sorry, but no one deserves such a treatment
i was gonna say u americans sure suck, but i know i shouldn't be generalizing

anyways, i totally simpathise with pauly and it doesn't matter if you perform in front of a small audience, i'm an artist myself and i know how much soul and energy one has to invest in order to perform on stage
plus i just don't get it he didn't say anything bad so why did that gorilla start the fight
that's just sick...and wrong!!!

It that hat-wearing crap-kicking hillbilly a fucktard? Yes indeed.

But a set-up? C'mon. That kind of stuff always gets found out and then Shore's career is completely underground (yes, I agree that it is not far from that now).

Note to audience members: sit down, shut up, interact with the comic but don't be an asshole. If you are, tehn expect to get lambasted by said comic. Oh yeah, stay in your seat and don't hit anyone.

It's not that hard.

Yeah, what a shame one hick has to ruin Texas' reputation... Thank God we have a shining example of the high calibre intellect Texas is capable of producing in our current President!

(I'd like to think it's staged, but I can't see what the point would be, plus PS does seem pissed off at the end and I don't think he's that good an actor.)

oh GOD texans can't take a joke. i know first hand, i live here for freaks sake. i've lived all over the world and texans have the biggest ego out of anywhere i've lived in my life, and for what? for being the worlds greatest hillbillies? ughh. this is sickening.

If this, wasn't staged, (HUUUGE IF) it sure makes these little group look like the douchebag brigade.

All that having been said, I think Shore should be made to pay SOME penalty for subjecting us to the Weasel.

hope the swelling stays for a bit buuuuuuuudy.

this is the best pauly shore movie EVER.

Andy Kaufman used to pull the same shit, I aint buying it, until I see some blood.

http://thedirtydisher.blogspot.com/

Wow, as annoying as Pauly Shore is, he didn't deserve that. But yet, I found it to be very entertaining to watch.

It's too bad that Kramer didn't get punched in the face by his hecklers though, lol.

Anytime Pauly Shore gets knocked out is fine by me.

-Hick Johnson

25 - loosen up, no one said all of Texas was white trash. and if this clip is in fact real, then i feel sorry for Pauly Shore for being disrespected so badly. hey let's all jump on the comedy club bashing bandwagon. it's cool!

I wish someone would have punched him out before he made Encino Man.

Unwashedness: where can we view this political scrum?

Everyone involved comes out looking like a fucktard. Could be staged, but looks real to me. Anyway, no audience member should be allowed onstage unless the performer invites them up. That guard was derelict in his duties. Perhaps on purpose...

#29 - Is someone trolling UNWASHED? That was fucking lame.

This is staged. If it wasn't there would have been a security guard all over that guy who went up there.

Props:

"All he had to say was "Git R Done!" about 25 times and they would have rollin' MAN!!!" - fo sho

"this is the best pauly shore movie EVER." - not saying much, but still... funny

Why are people in comedy clubs so angry? Can't any of these people (performers or audience) take a freakin joke?

I've never been to Odessa, but I haven't heard really great things about it. I could say the same thing about Pauly Shore. Actually, it's hard to feel sorry for any of these people. Now if only Gilbert Gottfried would go to Odessa.

So is Pauly Shore's career over because he used racial slurs, ala Michael Richards?

#53 we seem to have a stealth troll running around, I think IT is even infesting Yeeeah and Spank Cheeks.

pretty fucking weak as far as trolls go though

For the record he was from Arkansas.

Talk about screwing up the 'punch line.'
Pauly forgot his line " Sock it to me, Sock it to me !"
Doesn't he know his TV history ? He knew 'Hoss'.

Weez the juice.

People actually paid $$ to see Pauly Shore? Last I heard, Pauly was employed by the CIA at Guantanomo to torture detainees with his stand-up act.

Slim, I have a hard enough time being myself... how the fuck does anyone find the time to be everybody else? Maybe it's Mr. Fish..?

Trolled? Nope. I was just telling it like it is, as always. But maybe the better analogy is Tyson-Spinks.

When did you guys become incapable of taking a joke?

#63 - I never pictured you like Spinks at all. That and you're usually pretty long winded. Oh, and funny. Sorry, that ain't you.

movie-clip caption contest:

"When the only two things that come from Texas clash!".

It looks like the Andy Kaufman set-up on Letterman back in '82 when Jerry "The King" Lawler punched him out:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Kaufman

Pauly Shore didn't lie... that was an audience FULL of white trash. Why do these idiots waste their money on tickets to a show when they obviously don't care about being entertained by the performer?

What a bunch of scummy, low-life pricks. I hope that guy goes to jail. I don't even like Pauly Shore all that much, but man.. that wasn't right. There is no excuse for walking on stage and punching someone. It's like people these days are blaming others for their actions. Keep control of YOURSELVES.

Whiiiiiiite trraaaaaaaash. Definitely.

gawd, I knew he couldnt act, but that takes the cake. THat shit was SO STAGED.
ridiculous what people are willing to do for a buck.
idiots.

And Michael Richards' hecklers were a bunch of freaking retards as well. People need to keep their MOUTHS SHUT when there is a performer on stage. Richards shouldn't have said what he said, but he had every right to freak out on those bastards.

If anything the guy who punched him was angry he didn't get payed for his extra work, in the movie Son In Law.

Where is this guy when Rosie was ching-chong-chang'ing?

#64 whatever. I'm not always long-winded, that's a cheap shot on your part, and sort of ironic coming from you. I don't much mind the trolls, they've never really bothered me. But I don't hang around much lately because because everybody's become irritable and paranoid. This thread = case in point.

Total setup. Pauly is just trying to jumpstart that career on empty. Looks like it's helping a little.

WTF? Is it open season on stand ups now?
I'm not exactly a Pauly fan, but when did being a stand up become a contact sport?
Fucking Americans can find a way to fuck up any event.
and I am saying that as an American. it's true though... if isn't a punch up, it is a shoot out.
we need some fucking sense.

pauly shore is the greatest i wouldnt know in what bright mind of some one in wanting to do that to the coolest guy ever if staged or not that is not cool and if anyone who does not like pauly shore needs to be torchered and left in a dark hole and die

#72 - The long-winded comment was not a dig, just an observation. I am absolutely long-winded quite often. And there's no paranoia; I don't agree with UNWASHED's politics but whatever, he's funny. You are not. Run along now.

There's only 2 things that come from texas: Steers and Queers!

I guess that guy's a shinning example of why you 'don't mess with texas'.... fucking idiot.

Dude, Odessa SUCKS. I use to live in that area. That whole permium basin area blows. Odessa is depressing, ugly, retarded, (I could go on and on)...

Typical American Pussy! just because you disagree with someone you just go up there and assault the person (or country). Too bad Pauly wasn't a closet black belt so he could beat the shit out of this typical fat american bastard.

Why hasn't he overdosed in some fleabag motel yet?

Whiskey, cardhardt jackets, large car antennas on old beat-up pick-ups trucks and large confederate flag belt buckles are sooo cool...at least for that crowd.

But that was pretty awesome.

What was the security guy doing the whole time? Touching himself? He gets paid to prevent this kind of stuff.

TMZ is reporting that this was staged. Texans are still assholes, though...

He's lonesome cowboy Burt, doncha get his feelins hurt...

This is bullshit! Polly appears to duck even before Burt's hand swings through.

FAKE. Not quite as awesome.

I used to be a radio DJ for 6 months in Odessa...and yes, everyone is a white trash moron there. They don't take kindly to 'city humor." Sorry DU-UUDE, I feel for Pauly.

stupid ass ignorant morons if ya'll cared to do an research,ya'll would've known that this was staged by Pauly, Rob the club owner & the guy that went onstage, and contrary to everyone's beliefs, Odessa isn't made up just of white trash, there are well educated hard working people here of all races. The media just seems to get off on making this place seem like nothing but ignorant hicks live here and for all of ya'll that dog this place, just remember this was once your home too idiots

#18 took the words out of my mouth?

Fake.

http://www.tmz.com/2006/12/12/cops-say-pauly-shore-video-a-fake/

oh, that doesn't mean everyone involved isn't a complete moron btw. Yeeeehaw y'all.

"y'all" "y'all"

"y'all" is the vocab of a hick.

I've lived in Odessa my whole life with the exception of these last two years that i've in college. First off, the whole town is not "100 % white trash" as some would have you believe, almost half of Odessa's population is Hispanic. Secondly, I've been all over the country but people are way nicer in Odessa than anywhere I've ever been. Things aren't always as they appear.

Pauly got dropped like a bunny -- for dissin' some fat cowboy's honey -- Michael's problems are bigger, for screaming out nigger -- And they're both in the right....now THAT"S funny.. First ammendment people...

you people who believe this clip is real need to get out from behind your computer screens and get a life. you post your comments about a place you have never been to nor know nothing about.this clip was staged and if you believe its real you prove my point that you're a DUMBASS!!!!!!THINK BEFORE YOU SPEEK AND RESEARCH BEFORE YOU POST.....

#95 How about you research how to spell
SPEAK ? Lighten up, jackass ...

Good to know Texas doesn't like faggy has been actors. Y'all is a contraction of You All. 92 fuck you, you're just jealous us country folks are smarter than gnats like you. 92 must be either black liberal or a wigger because only dumbshit kevin federline eminem rap music fans make fun of real Americans.

aww man!! Now i wish i would of payed those $35 to go, not for the comedy routine, but for the almost knockout!!

Oh yeah!! Not all texans are hicks

Good Christ, I hate Texans more than Idahoans. WTF is Pauly Shore doing in a club like that? Who the Hell thought that booking was a grand idea? Has it come to THIS, Pauly? I think the time has come to become "Paul, the ex-comedian car salesman."

However, ANY group of people that scream out, "Hit him!" and then laugh after somebody gets punched is white trash.
Forget comedians, they just need to throw some sawdust on the floor and have a fuckin' hootinanny.

These people are the trashiest of the white trash and I don't even LIKE Pauly Shore.

#97

Come on... Even YOU can't believe that Texans are smarter than the rest of Americans. I mean, sure, it sounds nice when you're screaming it out at a KKK rally and all; but in the dead of night when you can't sleep you can't help but realize that all ya'lls neighbors are inbred racists.

Oh, and so are you. Black Liberals and Wiggers are not real Americans?

I forgot to add that I found your post name "James" to be a little too northern and therefore Non-American. From now on you will be Jim-Bob the Cousin-fucker.

And 1980 is right: "ya'll" IS a hick word. I use it myself and I'm not afraid to agree. Ya'll need to come to terms with your inner redneck.

Ah hell... this actually explains a lot. I honestly feel quite bad for Pauly Shore... the club is within walking distance from my house, sandwiched between a Tejano Bar and a Pizza Hut. Little things like this make me lose a little more faith in humanity everyday. Yes, there are always people who turn up to these things ready to give shit to the performer, but we had Goddamn Vanilla Ice perform two years ago and nobody did anything stupid.

Regardless of what has been said, Odessa is not a place one likes to visit. In the 80's, a group of Churches banded together to form a cross along the intersection of 42nd and Andrews Highway to protect the town from Ozzy Osbourne. A city that didn't get with the whole de-segregation thing until the mid-eighties. While a far cry from the hell it was ten years ago, the collective lack of intelligence is shocking.

-Matt Rios

Is Ozzy a vampire?

Stupid ass washed up comedians can't take the heat...
Someone should have done the same thing to Michael Richards
"man, you got knocked the FUCK OUT!!!!!!!"

Well I hope "hoss" enjoyed his nite in the slammer and the future court dates for assault.... And I guess he cant argue it..... It's on film.....

What a dipshit..... Urban Cowpie

I'm not a Pauly Shore fan, but that was bullshit. Definitely makes me wish he was as bulked up as Carrot Top to see what the outcome might've been. That fuckin' hick should've gotten benched...

Hmmmm..... Found this on TMZ.com... I smell something fishy....... And it aint my mother in law who is visiting!!!

http://cdn.digitalcity.com/tmz_documents/shore_release.pdf

Guy is still a cowpie......LOL

Way to fake a hit and make yourself look like a pussy Pauly. "Dude, stop stop, I'm sorry I'm sorry"? At least Andy Kaufman had the wherewithal to stick to his guns with his fake hit, he didnt puss out and start begging not to be hit...I'm surprised we didnt hear him scream "Not in the face!"

#97 actually im neither a "black liberal" or "wigger" and im DEFINITELY not jealous of "ya'll country folk" I don't think any city girl would be jealous of someone from texas.
you just proved my point that texans can't take a joke, especially when its against them. don't hate me because you can't stop saying "ya'll", if you travel anywhere outside of the south and say "ya'll", they will think you're a hick. its just the truth, so chill out dude.

This Pauly dude acted like a fuking pussy. As soon as that fart stepped on stage I'd be ready al right.

http://odessapd.com/NewsReleases/docs/pauly%20shore.pdf

Don't be stupid, people.

what a pussy.

Ok, so an old friend from Odessa confirmed that the video is fake and they had it on the retarded local news there. Odessa is still a white trash, bible thumper, redneck, ignorant, ugly, uninspiring, town. And contrary to their belief, it is a TOWN, not a CITY. A CITY has culture, interesting places, and doesn't SUCK MAJOR ASS. And to the losers who are crying about how Odessa is actually a great place.... these are the people who haven't LIVED anywhere else. I can almost bet none of you hicks have traveled to Paris, and lived there for over a year, or anywhere else for that matter because if you had, YOU WOULD REALIZE THAT ODDESSA SUCKS. You have to actually experience the WORLD around you to realize that you’re wasting your life in a crappy town like Odessa. You need to LIVE, BREATHE, maybe even learn another language other than HICK. And tex-mex doesn't count. But noooo, they always stand up for their uptight town, by saying ignorant shit like "I’ve been to (insert major metropolitan area) and it just has a bunch of (insert racist or other similar words such as QUEER - they like to use that one a lot)." And the fact that they are receiving any attention for Friday Night Lights or this Pauly Shore crap is annoying. Shit, it's annoying that I still even CARE about how SUCKY that town is. I guess when you have to suffer a shitty town like that, you are always going to deal with the trauma. And it's not that I hate small towns, I have been to many charming small towns, but Odessa SUCKS. And you know what? I bet all the local yokels are going to post now, because they heard about this on their shitty local yokel news. And they are going to try to enlighten me on how I don't know shit, because Odessa rules. Yee-haw. Word to advice to other posters out there: Never put down their beloved Dubya (aka Bush). I can't believe that I am on the other side of the world, and still have to be reminded of that shitty town.

fuck YA'LL yankees.....

Haha...

Texas sucks. All except for the Steve Earle part, that is.

So seriously, I know Pauly's whole career is making himself look like an ass but this stunt went a bit too far. I hope Pauly got at least a splinter from fake falling on the hicks stage.

Wrong, Oklahoma sucks. That's why Texas hasn't fallen off into the Gulf.

#115.....that was cute.

#93 - i'v been all over the world too. i use to live in dallas, and i have been to odessa. i also use to live in nyc, and i would take an angry new yorker over a redneck any day. btw - #93 is right, most of odessa is hispanic. but there is still many a redneck in that west texas region. plus, their sister city is midland. to me midland and odessa are the same place. midland has more going on. still boring.

Odessa loves them some high school football.

I don't understand, if it was a prank, why wasn't it funnier or more thought out?

A fantastic comedian from Texas is Bill Hicks. He talks about Texas a lot as well.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Hicks

That was a lame stunt, and he has his share of flops, but I can't say I don't love Encino Man, or that I wouldn't mind passing a spliff with Pauly. I'm sure he's a funny guy, just makes bad career choices.

Staged? OH-WUH! I was just about to say what great day this turned out to be!

Fake? I say we make it real...

id call him a washed up hack,but he dosent really have anything other than "son in law"
to be washed up about.
I betcha his agent can't even get him a gig on the surreal life

I did not like Pauly Shore, but of course seeing a bully pick on anyone makes me mad. So I posted that I felt it was terrible.

Now that I know it was fake, I dislike him even more.

http://www.holisticwisdom.com

I think we're all wishing now that someone had dropped Pauly Shore for reals... the only people more retarded than the rednecks who help someone pull a lame-ass "prank" is the person who comes up with said lame-ass prank in the first place. If this is an example of Pauly's comedy stylings now, no wonder he's playing places like Odessa.

I think someone from Odessa should go to Pauly Shore's house and punch him for real, just because. And make sure to videotape it, so we can all enjoy it on You Tube.

And I believe it's "Permian Basin."

And yeah, "y'all" is a hick thing to say, but so what? It doesn't sound any more ignorant than "youse guys."

Finally, yeah, Oklahoma sorta sucks too. I should know, I'm from there.

Well now, looks like all of the Odessa bashers out there get to eat a little crow. You know who you are. The one's who used such eloquent language as "fuckin' white trash", "dumb hicks" and "scummy low-life pricks". You know, the intelligent ones. As it turns out, the whole thing was staged. The audience was instructed how to react and the cop was in on the whole thing. After reading all of the posts insulting my home town and the people who live here by idiots who know nothing of this town, it gives me great pleasure knowing that all of you "cultured and intelligent" non-white trash anti-rednecks were duped by your HERO, Pauly Shore. And to make things even better, us "white trash dumb hicks" are in on the gag and are laughing (along with Mr. Shore)at your stupidity for buying into the whole thing! By the way, on a personal note to angryandparanoid, I HAVE traveled around the world and I AM educated. As a matter of fact, I'm educated enough to realize when I'm reading the rantings of a pretentious ass who obviously suffers from self-esteem issues. A little therapy may be in order for you. Just a thought...

This can't be fake. I've seen Pauly Shore act.

To think, I cheered for the guy that knocked him out when I first heard this.

Now its just another unfunny thing Pauly Shore has done.

#128
I could go on an itellectual rant about how you don't read, and came in amazingly late. I could talk about how everyone already knows its fake and you are just proving that people from Odessa suck, but I'll just settle for terms you might be able to understand.

You sir.....

Are a DUMBASS!

@128 read what you posted (what all these people did). Now explain to me how that is not the MOST retarded thing you've ever heard.
How high is the unemployment rate in Odessa? 'cause obviously people got a lot of time on their hands. Planning hoaxes with hack comedians?

oof, you people suck.

#130

I also could go on an intellectual rant (as opposed to your "itellectual rant") about how some people are so mentally inferior that their best debating skills consist only of slinging schoolyard curses at those they disagree with.

However, that won't be necessary

because you sir...

Just proved my point.

#131

You are absolutely right. That is one of the stupidest displays I've ever witnessed.
To answer your question, the unemployment rate in Odessa is almost zero, but that doesn't mean we don't have our share of idiots with too much time on their hands living here. Now here's my question: Do you think it's really fair for people to hurl racist slurs, curses and insults at an entire community of 100,000 GOOD people simply because a few idiots agreed to participate in an ill-advised publicity stunt cooked up by a hack comedian that no one really likes anyway?

WhiteTrashOdessan: You obviously couldn't take living and breathing in cultured cities. After all, you say you’re a world traveler. You know the difference between living in another country, and being a tourist is? The difference is that tourists never experience living a new life. You get to gawk, and stay in fancy hotels. You would learn way more if you lived abroad for a while. I have never in my life met a "world traveler" that preferred ugly ass white trash TOWNS to beautiful, cultured cities.

I'm not saying that you have to be a world traveler or live abroad to enjoy life. Many people haven't had time to do it yet, or they already live in an interesting place that they are happy in. It's beneficial to travel and live abroad, but not necessary. HOWEVER, if you are a white trash hick that doesn't know shit, and you blindly stand up for a crappy town, people get pissed because of your ignorance. It SCREAMS ignorance when you say to people who have seen Odessa for themselves, and tell them that it's actually a great place. Poster #120 and #103 both have firsthand knowledge of Odessa, and they both say negative things about it. Plus countless other people who already have the common knowledge that Texas sucks in general.

Oh, and before you start spewing inaccurate numbers at innocent people: the population of Odessa doesn't exceed 100,000. It's in the mid 90's. And anyone interested can look it up on google and see for themselves. I’ve been to places in the 200,000 mark, and the locals refer themselves as a town. And these were places WAY more interesting and had WAY more going for them than Shitdessa. So please, do not damage the word "city" by using it in the same sentence as Odessa ever again. Oh, and the unemployment rate is only close to 0 (if you consider 5% close to 0) if you are a white trash male or female. The numbers are much higher if you are a Hispanic, black, or any other race besides hillbilly. Don't believe me? Check it all out at city-data.com.

Oh, and I don't think I'm the one with self-esteem issues. After all, I'm not the one torturing myself by living in Odessa am I?
And if you think I'm pretentious for hating your home town, I'm not alone... because you know what? TONS OF PEOPLE THINK TEXAS SUCKS! That includes your SHITTY TOWN ODESSA.

And to the poster who said people are nicer in Odessa than other places...you're full of shit. Odessa is a clannish, bible thumpery, lip-pursing, judgmental town that is afraid of new ideas and new people. This is from my own experience, and #103 seems to have the same idea.

And Pauly Shore isn't my hero. Especially if he sucks enough to perform in Odessa.

WhiteTrashOdessan: So, if you ever grow a fucking mind, please let me know.

Gee, I was all lined up to give some to white trash odessan, but it seems kinda pointless now. I guess I'll just stand behind angryandparanoid and glare menacingly.

Oh so Pauly is desperate for attention, not a shocker at all. He'll get his additional few minutes and return to being a faggy has been dipshit actor who should go away like the others.

angryandparanoid: First, who said I've never lived abroad? You've made an inaccurate assumption base on limited information. Someone of your superior intellect and culture should never commit such a gaffe. Second, I never used the word "city" in any of my posts. If you would stop frothing at the mouth for a moment and take a breath, you would see that I used the term "community". As far as your statistics on population are concerned, here's a direct quote from Wikipedia concerning Odessa. "The city and its surrounding suburbs had a population of 125,339 as of 2005." (Someone needs to call Wikipedia and set them straight on the usage of the word "city".) Your unemployment rate statistics are also a bit outdated. The actual current unemployment rate is just over 3% as of November 2006. That's as close to "almost zero" as you're going to get in ANY town, community or "cultured" city, but I digress.

It's clear from your posts that you absolutely HATE Odessa. You also hate Texas in general. I'm guessing, from the tone of all your posts, that you hate just about everyone and everything. Even the screen name you chose speaks volumes about what's going on inside your head. Seriously, dude, get some help.

Now, as for myself, I'm through wasting my time on you (and this pointless debate). Have a nice life and hope you get well soon.

where still on this? come on people. first of all, both city-data and wikipedia are correct. city-data focused on odessa alone, and wikipedia included surrounding suburbs. second of all, why are we still talking about a dumb comedian and a boring town in texas? third of all, did you people not read my post about how odessa is mainly hispanic?

dude, odessa sucks but most of texas does. don't go there if you don't like it, and if you do like it, please stay there and don't come to california and talk to me about texas :P

the superfish is going to have new posts soon, and we can all forget about this one because it will be on the next page.

THIS GOT OUT OF HAND!

I went to high school in Odessolate.

I went to college in Lubbock - which is even WORSE if you can imagine. At least you can get good weed in Odessa.

I high-tailed it out of satan's rectal part of texas after my useless degree from Texas Tech, and have lived happily in Boston and Manhattan for over 10 years now.

I am indeed, however, planning on moving back to Texas, Austin, to be exact, where at least you have a buffer zone to people from Odessa, and its widely considered, the blue city in a red state.

Americans in general, SUCK. I have been all over the world, my family is not from this country, which explains why I am so cool, and everyone else sucks. HA!

I can't believe everyone is going all ape shit about an old oil town out in the desert. hey-suse on the cross...

Mama said knock you out! I'm gonna knock you out!

Thank you, Mister Cool J...
