MA DiBello Update
MAD has moved his outreach focus to YouTube:
http://youtube.com/user/markanthonydibello
Unfortunately, most of the videos are somehow tagged to require his permission to view them, but the fuzzy frame on the main page looks intriguing. I tried to read what the bimbo is saying in the pop up video balloon. It appears to be, "He's good! And the bod ain't too shabby." Now that's a sentiment I think we can all endorse.

If I knew he was going to be on I might just watch thatMark Anthony DiBello is set to appear on an upcoming episode of ABC's "Wipeout."
Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

At the end of the Moral Court video, MAD has text which said there was an agreement that he would get 75% of the $2000 award to the other contestant who 'won'. The other contestant wouldn't honor the agreement and soon died of a heart attack.
Don't mess with MAD

Wow 75%, what kind of person would agree to that? I wonder if Armand Kachigian gave up 75% of his winiings.themanintheseersuckersuit wrote:At the end of the Moral Court video, MAD has text which said there was an agreement that he would get 75% of the $2000 award to the other contestant who 'won'.

Obviously MAD administered his evil poisonous compound ("Jesus Juice") to the unwitting contestant and made him the proverbial offer he couldn't refuse. Unfortunately, the dose was too strong and our contestant dropped dead of an apparent heart attack before he could make payment. I think GSN and Lifetime are working on the movie.PlacentiaSoccerMom wrote:Wow 75%, what kind of person would agree to that?

Seriously though, I never heard about any Armand Kachigian/MAD link. Do tell.

Indeed, he says Armand was one of his clients. And to hear Mark tell it, he used hermillion's appearance as an example for Armand's instruction, despite the fact that she sat in the Hot Seat immediately before Armand did!15QuestionsAway wrote: Seriously though, I never heard about any Armand Kachigian/MAD link.

Did beast save that thread from Mark's visit to the Bored? I seem to recall that he reposted it here, but I can't find it with search at the moment? It was truly one of the all-time memorable days on the Bored!

I have bits and pieces of it saved, which I'll probably have posted on the upcoming anniversary September 16th (Which will likely be my Beast Won't Be Here Day this year).
As for Dr. Kachigian, he still has his practice next to the local Dairy Queen. I wonder if MAD gets a cut of that business too....

Thanks Marley and LB. I think that whole exchange predates my first appearance here, so I'll be looking forward to the revisit.MarleysGh0st wrote:Indeed, he says Armand was one of his clients.

As I said when I met MAD at 1 vs 100, he's one strange cat. He doesn't seem to fully inhabit the same universe the rest of us do.

Maybe he is reading here. I watched the video on the main page with no problems...except that I actually got to watch it. Including a brief clip of him wearing just a thong. He is the most crazed person I've ever seen on a game show.TheConfessor wrote:MAD has moved his outreach focus to YouTube:

He becomes a Blind Date AllStar because he is so out there.
Wow. If all Christians were like him, all life on earth would end because there would be no procreation.

He is crazier on TV.
That's saying something.

No idea even when the show is on. I'm afraid I can't bring myself to watch it even for a chance to see MAD.Bixby17 wrote:Okay, it says he is going to be on Wipeout. I believe this show represents all that is wrong in the world.
That being said, I'd love to see MAD on it. Does anyone know which show he is on?

If Charlie Manson had been obsessed with game shows instead of the Beatles the world would have been a better place.

Physically, he is someone good for tv. Easy smile, talkative, enthusiastic.
But he goes one step beyond. It is like he put any shred of personal dignity in escrow. "Yes, I have now found God, but in the past I was a dancer. Really, see here's my nekkid pictures."
If you are reasonably good looking, and willing to be train wreck enthusiastic, not just regular enthusiastic, you may find yourself on a bunch of game shows.
He is right in saying that reality shows do not reflect reality--that they are just casting stereotypes of people.
