Doesn't the host of a food show owe it to their audience to be open to new food experiences? I'm not saying someone who doesn't like fish should have to go to a sushi restaurant, but there isn't really a market for a carnivore cooking show. At all.

It feels wrong to see a man act like this in public and make fun of him, it reminds me of everyone making fun of Bruce Willis' terrible acting when it was obvious he was mentally impaired.

The difference is that Bruce Willis is beloved and by all accounts a great guy, whereas Jack has always been an incompetent, narcissistic, arrogant, child-abusing, fake-Christian piece of shit.

I feel bad for Willis, but seriously watch Die Hard 5 or the Death Wish remake dude was sleepwalking through jobs long before he got sick. As for Jack reap what you sow, he's in the state he's in because he wouldn't change or listen to anyone who warned him. A man drowning is sad a man drowning after he was told the river was going to flood and he should get the fuck out of there is a life lesson for others and he should be mocked for his stupidity that caused his situation.

You have to cut people who made fun of Willis some slack. People didn't know at the time what was going on with him. A lot of people thought he was just cashing in on bad films where he didn't have to do anything for monetary reasons. Once it was revealed about his health problems and that people were just using him, his critics started to apologize for what they said about him and turned their scorn to those around him for basically taking advantage of a mentally impaired older person.

As for Jack, I do feel kind of bad if I make fun of him now and days. Really looking at him, it just isn't as fun as it was a couple of years ago because of just how much mentally he has fallen off. I feel more that he just needs some mercy and needs to be put out of his suffering. The only thing that keeps me wanting to still make fun of him is just how vile of a person he was for so long and how poorly he treated everyone around him. That and the fact that he deliberately did this to himself and fought with everyone who tried to give him advice on living a healthier lifestyle.

It is not that I have sympathy for Jack, it is just I am not a sadist who enjoys other people suffering. No matter how evil that person might be.

dude was sleepwalking

Yeah, he was already floundering at that point. You can see it as early as surrogates (2009)
He looks confused because he's confused. Nothing could have saved that movie, and it ought to have been scrapped, but as long as the money came in, Bruce honestly seemed compelled to keep taking the work. Less a Cage evading the tax man situation than Willis trying to outrun the inevitable.

Counterpoint: Do not feel pity for any of the Scalfanis, save Brianna. She went from a jesus compound to a jesus pit.

Jack is the architect of all his own woes, and he never hesitated to stop and be shitty to others. AND FUCK DOCTORS, HE DOESNT WANT A PILL!

You have a family enchilada recipe that uses green? Fuck you, Jack bought red. You scraped together enough money to open a restaurant? Fuck you, Jack called it a hole in the wall and gave it a bad grade because you didn't microwave his salsa/marinara.

That being said, there was no saving that so called enchilada recipe, that was a feed trough of bullshit.

You don't just come down with dementia where you're totally healthy one day and then wake up a gibbering idiot the next.

Dark and bitter. Like his jokes SOUL

Ironic as he drinks his coffee piss weak and with four creams and sweeteners.

I doubt he did this with Junior.

Of course not. He did it to Garrett and look how he turned out. So he figured to do the opposite for Jr and look at the result.

Maybe he should have choke slammed Jr to the floor as well and he'd be successful too.

I doubt it. Jr has Tammy's genes running through him. I don't know much about the first Mrs. Scalfani, but the fact that she had enough common sense present in her to ditch fat ass tells us Garrett at least got some quality genes from her side of the family.

I mean, she still married Jack to begin with. I wouldn't call them "quality" just yet.

We all make mistakes in life. Sometimes huge, fat, retarded ones. What matters is if we fix them.

Plus the stories Kevin Smith told about working with him on Cop Out weren't flattering. Smith took his lumps for his own mishandling of the film, but by all accounts Willis was very difficult to work with and unpleasant to be around. Interesting to go back and listen to these stories again knowing what we know now.

A lot of actors are like that. They're prickly and they don't deal well with certain directors or ways of doing things.

Bruce Willis takes this to another level and he's burned a lot of bridges. Directors have complained that he's argumentative, uncooperative and very demanding. And this was before he got sick. But directors will put up with it because he is, or at least was, a box office draw.

Do we know anything about Jack’s first marriage besides Garrett?

Sounds like a gross milkshake.

A lot of these trash sellers try to pander to coffee enthusiasts without understanding that we're one of the most insufferable, autistic and picky bunches ever.
Want to buy a coffee-themed gift for a friend that's deeply into this? You don't. Get him/her a video game or something.

That he was an asshole back then too, because she'd regularly throw ashtrays at him.

You know, I never really saw the 'Jack is gay' thing and thought some kiwis were leaning into the bit a little too much. But oh my god, what a faggot.

Jack has often said "I know I'm fat, I've been fat my whole life" to deflect any commentary about his weight and the impact it has on his health. The thing is though, when you see his high school senior photo, and now this photo (as far as I know those are the only two young Jack photos we have ever seen, like younger than his wedding photos with Tammy anyway), he wasn't fat. Like, yeah, could you technically say he was a little husky or something, sure, but even in the 80s that was not a man who would have stood out or got a double-take as a 'fat person'.

It makes me wonder where it all began, where he started thinking of himself as having always been fat, and internalizing that to the point that he used it to deflect well-intentioned advice about his health, and to decide that it didn't matter anyway?

You're right, he wasn't even 80s fat. I do believe, however, that Jack has never had all that high an opinion of his own looks, so when he entered his 30s or likely his late 20s and things started to slide, he decided stuffing down lard from a phantom, imagined mommy who actually loved him was more important and he easily accepted the basement self-esteem of an avowed grease goblin.

After the strokes obliterated his memory of when he was a semi-normal person.
