Andy Dick looking somewhat sober? Obviously they shopped his face too.

[–]FionaTheHuman 37 points38 points ago

Got a little fast and loose with the term 'celebrity' on that one, didn't they?

[–]JamesTrivettesHat 0 points1 point ago

I guess someone hasn't heard "Little Brown Ring" yet?

[–]FionaTheHuman 1 point2 points ago

With a name like that, I think I should count myself lucky

[–]Ginger-Nerd 10 points11 points ago

apparently he has been sober for a few years now, i saw him on The Green Room With Paul Provenza he spoke quite openly about his sobriety.

[–]Anneal 11 points12 points ago

This was 3 months ago, you might've missed it.

[–]awkisopen 12 points13 points ago

Might have.

[–]CzarKurczewski 2 points3 points ago

Still a dick.

[–]ogkay 1 point2 points ago

Lol thanks for posting this, I did miss it!

[–]Ginger-Nerd 0 points1 point ago

actually, yeah i did see that, maybe he is off the wagon, (the thing was filmed some time last year)

[–]BroboCop3 1 point2 points ago

I saw Andy Dick walking down the street near my house a few months ago and he most definitely was not sober.

[–]gr33nspan 7 points8 points ago

I don't believe Andy Dick was riding anything.

[–]Derpettia 4 points5 points ago

A powder white pony.

[–]suddenly_ponies 2 points3 points ago

[–]Wissam24 2 points3 points ago

Andy Dick? I thought that was Lembit Opik

[–]Narmer 1 point2 points ago

He's probably not biking for fun. His license is probably revoked.

[–]thebendavis 1 point2 points ago

Andy Dick is a detestable piece of shit and should not ever be considered a 'celebrity'.

http://gawker.com/279278/jon-lovitz-vs-andy-dick-the-laugh-factory-beat+down

[–]Lystrodom 8 points9 points ago

Do people know who he is? Yes? Guess he's a celebrity, then.

[–]Eist 3 points4 points ago

I don't think that detestable pieces of shit and celebrities are mutually exclusive.

[–]funfungiguy 1 point2 points ago

For anyone that doesn't know but cares (though most people do know and don't care), Lovits never said Andy Dick killed Hartman.

When Hartman's wife shot him, they needed a replacement for Hartman's character on News Radio. They hired Hartman's SNL friend Jon Lovits. Prior to this Andy Dick had allegedly been responsible for getting Hartman's wife (who was a recovering Coke addict), back off the wagon. The night Phil was killed he told his wife Brynn if she starts using again, he'd leave her. She shot him while he slept and eventually shot herself.

So after Hartman was killed, Lovits showed up at the set and everyone introduced themselves and welcomed him to the show. When Dick went to introduce himself to Lovits and welcome him, Lovits told him, "Fuck you, I wouldn't be here if you hadn't given Brynn that cocaine."

That's pretty much summarized the rest of their working relationship for the remainder of News Radio, and I wouldn't doubt of Andy Dick did approach Lovits in a bar and "give Lovits the Hartman Hex". Andy dick is a notorious sociopath and substance abuser, and I wouldn't doubt Lovits did bash his face against a bar 4-5 times.

I actually liked Andy Dick on News Radio and The Andy Dick Show, bit I'd bash his face into a bar 4-5 times if he ever approached me.

[–]CupBeEmpty 50 points51 points ago

And Jake Gyllenhaal is the only one riding safely with a helmet. Good man.

[–]LadySpace 44 points45 points ago

Einstein's hair functions as shock absorption. And Andy Dick has already done more damage to his brain than mere blunt force trauma could ever hope to accomplish.

[–]cyclingisdangerous 0 points1 point ago

He's also the only one who looks like a typical American MAMIL 'cyclist'. Full lycra kit, gloves, special shoes, styrofoam hat, wrap around shades. lol.

[–]caseyboycasey 0 points1 point ago

Seriously, he's decked out in all Rapha gear. He's essentially wearing about $600.

[–]CupBeEmpty 0 points1 point ago

Was not familiar with the term MAMIL.

OPPA GANGNAM STYLE!

[–]White_Luigi 11 points12 points ago

Why does the first person to say this always get it wrong?

Oppan

EDIT: Here is why. Educate yoselves.

[–]account512 1 point2 points ago

Dude, it's Oppa.

The song's refrain "오빤 강남 스타일 (Oppa Gangnam style)" has been translated as "Big brother is Gangnam style", with Psy referring to himself;[16][17] "oppa" is a Korean expression used by females to refer to an older male friend or older brother.

source

[–]Flying_Assassin 19 points20 points ago

The lyrics pronounced in Korean IS Oppan. The English translation is Oppa.

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/gangnam-style

[–]akunzepp 3 points4 points ago

Except oppa isn't an English word, so it's not true to call it a translation.

[–]Flying_Assassin 4 points5 points ago

You can't translate a Hispanic name to an English name, either. The same principle applies here.

e.g. Paco is Paco.

[–]gerrettheferrett -1 points0 points ago

Oppa != a Korean name. It is a Korean word.

[–]White_Luigi 6 points7 points ago

And oppan is a contraction of oppa-neun. Korean doesn't work the same way as English. Just because oppa is a word, doesn't mean it is the word. http://mydearkorea.blogspot.com/2012/08/korean-language-what-is-oppan-in.html

[–]Nokel 17 points18 points ago

It's "oppan".

"Oppa" means big brother, and "Oppan" means big brother is. Saying "Oppa Gangnam Style" is like saying "account512 smart". It just doesn't make sense.

Besides, the romanized version of the lyrics is "Oppan gang-namseutayil", and you can clearly hear Psy saying "Oppan" in the chorus.

[–]Xondroz 3 points4 points ago

Now Photoshop bikes back in!

[–]madmanmunt 8 points9 points ago

But different bikes!

[–]hansolo669 6 points7 points ago

and then photoshop them back out!

[–]madmanmunt 7 points8 points ago

I'd like to see the bikes enjoying a nice ride without the burden of celebrity

[–]Mugiwara04 3 points4 points ago

I found this comment amusing beyond all reason, thanks for improving my morning.

[–]snoogins1 3 points4 points ago

I think the last one is just andy dick without a bike.

[–]bcarle 1 point2 points ago

Yeah isn't that how he normally stands?

[–]emptythecache 17 points18 points ago

i hate when people suggest submissions don't belong in r/mildlyinteresting. Mildly interesting is literally the easiest criterion to meet to be postworthy. It's like people bitching about squares being posted in r/shapes.

[–]DryHeaving 2 points3 points ago

Actually it's pretty hard. All new submissions have been of over average interest. When I come here I expect to have slight interest in every post. Not amusement. People posting should really hesitate to post because the fact you don't know how interested people would be. These photoshops should not be here.

[–]HamsterGutz 0 points1 point ago

People posting should really hesitate to post because the fact you don't know how interested people would be

Well that's the thing with subreddits like this, some people might find it mildly interesting while others would find it just plain interesting. Same thing with /r/wtf or /r/bigtits or something(don't know if /r/bigtits is real, just making an example) some people might not find something wtf worthy, or think the tits are big enough. If people didn't submit something because they think it might not exactly fit the criteria of a sub there would be no content.

[–]PerchPerkins 1 point2 points ago

Valid point.

[–]4RC -3 points-2 points ago

[–]eifersucht12a 0 points1 point ago

"Celebrity [photos] with bikes photoshopped out of them. Plus a photo of Andy Dick."

That works on two levels because it would insinuate that he isn't famous, and that it isn't shopped and he's magical.
