Joe Rogan on Rude People Who Want Selfies

The show would be inexorably altered. You know, you would be altered by like, what are you saying? Don't say that. Like you would read it and then that would be the show. The show would be these people as well as you. Well it's just not necessary. Or valuable. Because of the fact that we had the comments killed during the live feed, you couldn't chat during the live feed, when we would transfer it over to YouTube, the comments would be disabled, and people went crazy. And I had a tweet about it, but look, I'm not disabling the comments, I don't know what this glitch is, but they're going to figure it out. But Shob decided to disable his comments on purpose. And dude, they fucking went crazy and they were attacking him. But what are the numbers that give a shit? Like have you ever commented on a YouTube video? Have you ever watched a YouTube video and commented on it? I don't think I ever have. I never have either. I don't know anybody worth a fuck that has. That's the part of the problem. I know there's some really positive comments and people who are healthy people who are just interested in debate and discussion about particular topics, but when you're dealing with all these negative people, what are the numbers? If you have a million people watching a YouTube video, are we talking about a hundred people that are cunts? A thousand? I don't even think it's a thousand. Two hundred? It might not even be a hundred. You might be dealing with like 30 cunts. And they're the ones who are going to be mad that you disabled the comments. But does that really matter? And is this is keeping that cesspool open, keeping that commode open for them to dump their fucking verbal diarrhea into? Is that really feeding the is that giving the kid candy for being an asshole? Is it the same thing? Maybe. Maybe. I once saw you stand and talk to six hundred people who came to your show. You had an in-depth conversation. Chem trails this and fucking fighting that with each of them in the eye. You spent for sure four hours when you took a bunch of friends out for dinner and invited me, which was really cool. Thank you. I brag about it all the time. And then I saw you walk across. That was four hours for sure. OK, two to four hours. I don't know the exact number. Then I see you walk across the casino. And in that time, you do it again for another half hour as you know, Joey Diaz like, oh, oh, you know. And then we sit down and somebody comes over as soon as you sit down and they say, hey, can I and you go fuck off, man? I'm kidding. That's the guy who will tell the world Joe Rogan's an asshole. Yeah. That guy. I didn't say fuck off. No. Come on, man. I'm eating. Yeah. Whatever. I can't you can't just stop your meal every time someone comes over. It's a rude thing to ask. But there was eight hundred inter like human deep interactions, meaningful interactions. That one came fuck off. Well, I don't want to say fuck off. I just think that people have this distorted idea of space that they should just be able to invade your space where you literally have a mouthful of food. Yeah. I've had it happen. I've had it happen while I was feeding my daughter. Have her in my life. Heelball, can I get a selfie? You definitely can't get a selfie right now while I'm feeding my daughter. Get the fuck out of here, man. But that's just a misunderstanding of space. Yeah. And you're a human. Yeah. Like there it is a strange thing. I mean, I didn't watch. My wife was asking me because I was in Singapore if I watched the Royal Wedding. I'm like, no, I don't understand that at all. I don't understand the motivation for doing it. I don't even want to get into it. But those are still humans. Those are still people. And people don't understand. That woman shit. She does. I hide this way here. You know what I mean? They're people. And can you imagine if the person asks you while you're feeding your daughter, if somebody did that maybe the first time, he'd be like, well, I can't believe this guy wants to take a selfie with me. But after that, you're still living your human life. The only one you have. You just can't interrupt people while they're sitting at dinner with their family or with their friends. They're just sitting there cutting food up. It's just like they don't owe you that. Like and you shouldn't ask for that. It's just not the way to do it. It's just not. And you got to know when people can't stop. They just can't just say hi. Can you just say hi? No one can say hi. Everybody wants to dress up their Facebook. Everyone needs that fucking selfie. It's just like we're in a weird space with that stuff, that whole social media shit, because people want something from you that they get up to. It's not just they're a fan and they want to say hi. They want something from you to make them look cooler. And it's like you can give them some currency. It's like you're a Pokemon and they can pick you up and get a point from them. It's weird. It really is. Yeah, it is weird. So I...
