I'm ashamed that I ever though he and the Jackass/CKY crew were ever amusing. Harassing strangers, shoving stuff up your ass, and giving yourself brain damage isn't funny. It's just shock value garbage.
Glad to hear you have become a law-abiding citizen, OP. Reading through your post it has become quite obvious how much you have matured as a person. Congratulations.
Leo Diaz
I agree. We should all strive to become an upstanding guy like OP. Just a little bit less faggoty.
Zachary Foster
sarcastic, but I really do hate myself for having garbage taste
Connor Powell
About time you grew the fuck up.
Leo Edwards
I have to admit that the CKY series and Jackass were my guilty pleasure when I was growing up. I didn't care much for the self-harm or the parts where they were harassing strangers (which happened more in CKY than in Jackass). I found most Jackass pranks pretty entertaining and harmless. To be honest, the parts you mentioned in the OP were pretty much only a minor part of the show and what made it fun to watch.
But it doesn't even matter now, because everyone knows that wildboys was the superior show anyway.
Ian Cooper
Don't be a faggot. Those shows were great when in early to mid teens. It's no different then teenagers watching people do retarded shit on youtube these days.
Bentley Brooks
imagine being such a tight assed no fun allowed faggot that you can't relax and enjoy some jackass skits
Zachary Torres
are you an Earth Rocker now
Kevin Flores
I'm highjacking your thread, op.
Let's see those jackass power rankings.
Tyler Kelly
Seeing Bam in his 30’s is sad, make’s me greatful I didn’t destroy my brain with weed and lifted weights.
Thomas Peterson
How do you destroy your brain with lifted weights?
Levi Sanchez
Knoxville > Steve-O > Pontius = Dunn >> Dicamillo > Raab > (power gap) >>>> Weeman = Preston > Dave "Professional Shitter" England >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ehren
Austin Cooper
Jackass is comedy in its purest form.
Carter Taylor
>it's a Steve-O throws up episode
But seriously,
Chris Pontius > April Margera > Brandon Dicamillo > Don Vito > Knoxville > Steve-O > Phil Margera > Rake Yohn > Preston Lacey = Weeman > Dave England
Thomas Flores
>not rating Dunn
Jayden Phillips
I forgot Bam too, it's been a while. I'd put them both above the other Jackass cast but under Pontius and the other CKY members.
Chase Clark
>i can't enjoy some simple physical humor without launching into an intellectual rage and virtue signalling
Sounds like you're the garbage kiddo.
Nicholas Hill
Dunn was the best. He always outdid everyone with his stunts
Jose Wright
Who would win?
Robert Hill
I only dislike Bam that way. He always seemed like a little smug fucking asshole under all that showmanship
Jack Wilson
There's physical humor and being an asshole in public.
Ryan Barnes
It was slapstick of the new age. Not some guideline on how to live your life.
Nathaniel Parker
I liked jackass a lot while growing up because I really felt the camaraderie between the group. It was fun/funny stuff to watch with your friends when you were young. It's nice to remember those times where you felt invincible.
Bam and the CKY crew are a really dark case though. I didn't watch much of Bam's shows on MTV, but from the vice documentary that came out it seems like it was just a continuation of his rockstar lifestyle and lack of self-awareness. People used him and his fame to do drugs, have fun, party all the time. Then Ryan Dunn dies and they get that dose of reality. Now he's struggling with alcoholism and trying to understand his future.
Knoxville seems to be doing really really well though, and Steve-O too after getting clean. seems also true for dave england, preston lacy, weeman, etc.
But for everyone associated with Bam and CKY... I'm sure it's not as much the case
Jeremiah Peterson
They almost never acted like assholes in public. A lot of the time they wouldn't even approach stranges, they'd only film their facial reactions. Compared to the modern youtube pranksters these guys were saints.
Kevin Butler
which jackass movie had the one where steve-o gets into a port-o-potty and gets the whole thing slung in the air? i watched all 3 movies on cuckflix but it apparently they were cut to appease numales, or whatever
Brody Gray
How about when he shits in that store with an on display toilet? Or when they're in tokyo and constantly run through stores wrecking shit and acting like drunk monkeys?
It's like youve never seen either the show or the movies
James Baker
It's called growing up.
Parker Cooper
I have to say it's been pretty amusing to watch Bam slowly but inexorably transform into Phil, dragged screaming into the abyss of middle-aged irrelevance.
Elijah Watson
Those kinds of pranks were a rarity. I can go dig up 50 pranks of them just acting out an absurd situation in public and filming reactions. They rarely forced other people to interact with them.
Dominic Diaz
Agree that youtube pranksters are much more obnoxious, but jackass popularized it. Thinking the world is just a stage for your narcissistic need to perform is the root problem.
You really think they do that shit without taking responsibility for it? You think MTV or whoever would allow them to do that? They probably have a whole crew with them whose entire job is cleaning up their mess.
Leo Sanchez
I wouldn't watch it today but I'm not ashamed for liking it when I was a teen. I'm actually sad that I can't enjoy this kind of entertainment anymore, it means I'm getting old.
>oh don't worry about our guy who shit in your display toilet. We'll clean it up and give you $1000 dollars.
well I guess that make it ok
Joseph Jones
People who didn't grow out of jackass have double digit iqs. >howdy ya'll dis me gonna b me getting hit by a bull naw wahooooooo wow how intellectually stimulating. I could be watching something with a narrative or meaning but instead I'm watching some faggot redneck inbreds get hit in the cock and shove stuff up their ass.
Oliver Powell
exactly
Eli Mitchell
you must be really fun at parties
Caleb Smith
If only watching Jackass was as stimulating as discussing capeshit on Sup Forums, right?
Wyatt Thomas
I don't care what any of you faggots think, these skits will always be kino
If the guy had a problem with it he wouldn't have allowed them to use the footage.
Aaron Sanchez
yeah this is correct
Kayden Walker
Hobson's choice. They already did it so what's the point of putting up a fight? Jackass made that guys decision the moment they shat in his toilet.
Mason Bell
Entertainment is entertainment and the type of entertainment consumed doesn't correlate with intelligence, only with age.
Wyatt Ross
all of the stuff you described is funny, but its very immature low brow humor, but thats why it was so popular becasue it appealed to the broadest possible set of IQ ranges. plus as a kid your sense of humor is naturally less dry and more broad.
