Guy Fieri Insulted by Bourdain and Chang, Then Pecked to Death by Birds

The first two paragraphs merely point out what OTHER people said, and in the third paragraph, the writer points out -- with some very dry sarcasm -- that sticks and stones may break Fieri's bones, but in the end he's successful and rich, so the joke's on the haters.

Even he knows that he's over the top and crazy, and as such, is subject to criticism and plenty of people poking fun at him. He's a celebrity, for crying out loud. He doesn't need to be defended. Everyone in the spotlight has to be able to take prods and jibes, and like Kat said, Guy's laughing his way to the bank. So good grief, learn how to decipher basic sarcasm, or at least find a sense of humor.

He's always making fun of Rachel Ray and kissing up to whoever he thinks the cool guys are. We can't have these amateurs pretending to be chefs!

He reminds me of the guy in high school who would stop hanging around with someone if found out they owned and ABBA record.

Tony Bourdain is a great writer and his show is top notch. Stick to watching Guy Fieri shoveling fried cheese curds and meatloaf down his gullet. Sounds more your speed.

The title of the article says Bourdain insulted Fiere, but the body of the article itself mentions only a question asked by Bourdain that does not mention Fiere followed by comments by Chang. Thus, the title is either patently defamatory toward Bourdain or inartfully written in the body. Either way, stop making Anthony Bourdain your favorite whipping boy.

THOSE WERE NEVER TO BE REPEATED TAKES AND EXPERIENCES FROM THAT ERA. I AM SO GLAD I LIVED THRU IT ALL. YOU YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE NO CLUE AS TO WHAT LIFE WAS LIKE IN THE 70'S; IT WAS MAGICAL FUN! YOUNG PEOPLE TODAY LIVE A MISERABLE LIFE COMPARED TO THE EASY LAID BACK DAYS. F ALL OF YOUR TECHNOLOGY. YOU KIDS ARE SO PARANOID OVER A SIMPLE HELLO AND AN INNOCENT SMILE FROM A STRANGER! I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW F'D UP THINGS WILL BE IN THE NEXT MILLENIUM! THANKS GOD I WON'T BE AROUND TO DEAL WITH IT!

I watch Guy Fieri and enjoy his over-the-top style just as much as some of Anthony Bourdain's uber discriminating views. Fieri is likely howling in laughter at Chang and SNL; after all, we're all talking about him.
