simple question. lately ive become to realize i dont laugh at anything he says . yet mills just makes me crease up . if truth be told if it wasnt for dom and dave i would start to listen to kiss in the mornings,i think the final nail in the coffin was when he ranted about kerry katona today for well over an hour . i mean is he so short of material he had to bash this non story for so long?

In reply.

Mr Moyles was bullied at school for being over weight and a bit of a tit, not a terrible crime because he is, over weight and a bit of a tit. The crime is, he has managed to get a platform with literally millions of listeners who listen to him spout his own brand of cheap, nasty humour - in other words, bullying.

As he is reasonably uneducated (he thinks your urine rests in your balls!), you cannot lay the blame completely with him, it must be shared, I think, with his education, his parents, the people who bullied him and the system that lets him continue. If we had never heard of him, and indeed, he had never had the opportunity to broadcast, his personal brand of bitter, childish, nasty, ill-informed drivel would never have been a problem to us. The world is full of over weight tits, most of whom we never meet.

I think his rare excursions into television show the lack of character of the man. Live he is neither funny, quick or particularly interesting, and yes, I know that you can say the same of me, or anyone - but I am not paid to be entertaining - he is.

One day, his bubble will burst, but you have to feel sorry for the night shift workers and insomniacs of the small town he will end up at. We will have got rid of him, they will not.

I would like to say, 'I'm sure he is very nice', but he does not appear so. I guess he would say that this is his skill, to appear so unpleasant and unlikeable, but really be a nice bloke. Alas, I do not think he is a good enough actor to play that part.

I do pity him, I really do. Fat and unlikeable, he would be friendless if he had no fame - and lets be honest - he wouldn't have a girl friend in real life would he.

Lots of love,

John

He's very very quick witted, creative, and truthful. I personally find him, as I always have, to be a refreshing change to the UK radio scene. I have never considered anything he does to be bullying and only the short sighted ever would.

When the team get along he is accused of surrounding himself with sychophants and when he argues with them he is accused of bullying. I just think they are a close knit bunch of colleagues who, like any group of friends, have the odd disagreement. Moyles at least, has the courage to do it openly rather than pretend everything is hunky dory and that he's everyone's best friend.

Why do people insist on coming on here purely to start an argument? If we didn't think he was funny and didn't like the guy would we actually be on this site?

Chris, could you please start a questionnaire & IQ test before people can sign up? It they have an IQ of less than 80 and if they don't like Moyles the system can automatically ban them then!

I don't think these hit 'n runners are much of a problem really, take that 'John' fella for instance, hes very typical of the type we get here, but at least he was coherrant. I, like Moyles would not have taken those little jibes to heart. Its just you begin to question people like John and lose respect for them when they start talking about the show as though he's there to just bully people, when we all know the big man is very capable of dealing with serious issues like with Philip, this morning.

And, yes, he made a good gag about the urine in the bawsack thing, but our misguided friend 'John' could not see past this.

One might suggest that it is people who come onto the fansites of those they hate, that are friendless, and well, a bit sad.

I personally didn't enjoy the Katona bashing today, simply because I have a very very close relation with Bi Polar and understand the side effects of the drugs involved. However, I can see it for what it is, she has placed herself firmly in the public domain and has therefore made it 'open season'. That's the way it works.

As for Moyles being funny? For the most part, yes, hilarious!

Next?

Either you are a total idiot or you just don't get his humour. Either way, your argument falls apart from here. Go and listen to Virgin.

Johndillo, you need to * off. Having been lucky enough to spend time in Chris Moyles' company, I can say that you're wrong! He is a gentleman, kind, courteous, a man of character, clever, quick-witted, interesting and very funny in person. I can assure you in no uncertain terms that he is quite "likeable" and pleasant, as well as cute, cuddly and damned sexy, which is, of course, why he and his girlfriend have been together as long as they have! You can just take your toxicity and * up opinion elsewhere. Moyles has over 8 million listeners -- all over the world. He makes millions of people happy on a daily basis. Go listen to Johnny Vaughn, if you aren't him in disguise! As a matter of fact, having had the misfortune to hear Vaughn's brand of humour, I'd be almost certain you are him. Now, be a good chap and piss off, you moron.

Yeah, that could work:

"Hmm, this question asks 'Do you like Chris Moyles'. I bet they're looking for people to say yes to ban the annoying pricks who just want to cause trouble... I think I'll say yes and see what happens. And then be an annoying prick and cause trouble."

I find Moyles more entertaining than funny. The laughs come from Dom and Dave for me. That isnt a criticism of Moyels though as I think his show is the best on national radio. But no, I dont think he is that funny.

There were often moments when I had to commute when I would have to completely hide my face behind my paper or turn and face the window so people couldn't see I was pulling that stupid face people pull when they are desperately trying not to laugh. Seriously, tears rolling down my face, I often got some very strange looks on my journey. Very few knowing ones though sadly.

To get an hour of laughs every day in a 3 and a half hour slot with little script isn't luck - i think moyles is genuinely a funny person, but on his own he wouldn't be as good, as his personality is too aggressive. His team act as a buffer for his negative points.

Ha, why thank you! I was just a tad annoyed at the time - though I think I hid it well ;)
