"Top 5 Things About Rob & Arnie That Drive Each Other Nuts"

Criteria: Rob and Arnie have worked together since 1993. They were drinking buddies, Arnie was best man at Rob's wedding and Rob spoke at the funeral of Arnie's Mom. They're tight. Like all great pairs, they also get under each other's skin and can really irritate one another at times. This is a list of those things that drive the other insane.

Overview: Gloves are off. Anything that one does to drive the other over the edge is allowed. There are no rules.

Rob's Notes: : I love Arnie, I really do. The problem is that despite Arnie being the same age as me, I have always thought of him like a son, rather than a brother. He has so much to learn. Most of the things Arnie does that drive me nuts can be traced directly to his immaturity, lack of worldliness and low self-esteem.


Arnie's Notes: Look you may not hear from me for a while after this list is posted. Rob is a very violent and abusive boss who doesn't like to be critized. He is a robot. I believe that is why he has no emotion about anything whatsoever. And really who could forgive him for giving us Dawn.

Rob's Top 5

5. Saying hurtful, untrue things when he's upset (like claiming that my enchiladas are from a can).

4. Making arguments that have nothing to do with the actual discussion at hand.

3. Saying things will "never happen"

2. Assuming that everyone else is just as angry and unhappy as he is (if they say otherwise, they're lying, he says).

1. Believing that just because he hasn't seen or accomplished something, that means that it must not exist, be possible, or be true

HONORABLE MENTIONS

Getting his hopes up and becoming so emotionally attached to silly things that don't really matter in the light of eternity (like fast food, movies, sports)

Blaming things other than himself when things go wrong (like his golf equipment)

Lying about what he really wants in his life (saying he wants to be alone for the holidays)

Being a jerk because something in his life sucks, which he won't cop to on the air

Doing nice things and expecting something in return

Arnie's Top 5

5. Lack of Emotion

4. Can't ever let things go.

3. His "oh well" attitude.

2. Condescension and using big words.

1. Adding Dawn to the show.

 

HONORABLE MENTION

How he always got hot chicks.
