So, I have a good twitter friend, Gwen Hayes. She’s a total sweetheart, and the kind of writer I strive to be. Earlier today she got into a little twitter battle with Scott Baio. Oh, you don’t remember him? Here, let me refresh your memory:
Now, I’m not going to lie to you people. When I was in middle school, and he was yukkin it up with his crazy best friend on the late eighties sitcom, Charles in Charge–I had a little crush. What? He was a cutie…
But now, he’s on twitter. And–he’s a little opinionated. He started ragging on the president.
So, she responded:
And, so he responded:
Then he blocked her. How sad is that? Everyone’s sixth grade crush blocked a fan. Ouch. I guess he just isn’t that in to the whole ‘being cool to his tweeps’ thing. But, I’m super bored a good friend… so I stuck up for her:
And then… that boy who lived under those stairs and of COURSE that boy who loved Joanie…
He Dm’d me! He actually sent me a direct message. When I opened my email program, I saw this:
Wait, what? Scott Baio sent me a direct message on twitter? Oh for cripes sake! I had to read it! So, I opened up my twitter page and in one fell swoop, my childhood was crushed. Turns out Scott Baio is a crochety old douchebag.
He lives for family and GOLF? He equates an activity where you stand around all day and swing a titanium stick at a tiny ball a few times to his FAMILY? Wow… I guess it’s true what they say about those childhood actors–they really do go nuts.
Way to ruin it, Scott. Maybe you could call Kirk Cameron and have him pee all over my eighth grade feelings for him, too.
Want to read the rest of this story? That’s right, it doesn’t end here–Scott Baio continues his douchebaggery in Part Two, and Part Three.
I just read about Scott’s wife Renee calling people lesbians then throwing a few choice profanities in for good measure. These two are a match made in heaven, or hell, depending on how you look at it. I’m pretty disgusted by Scott’s “better than you” attitude. So the poor boy had to pay his taxes then decided to go on a tangent. Now he just doesn’t get why people are turned off by his lack of insight because you know, it’s all about him, not any of us, just him. Oh and golf. I still follow him though because I’m really looking forward to seeing how much of an ass he can make out of himself in the future, cause I need a laugh sometimes.
Geez.. What a jerk. Too bad scottbaioruinseverything.
Chachi joins the Klan.
I wonder how much he had to pay his beard…er, wife…..to marry him.
@Terry C, haha I’m guessing she did it for the love of her high school crush 🙂 little did she know…
petty scared little man, who will never grow up. so sad for the children who call him daddy. he is just a sore loser when it comes to life. and yes, he lost. oh and he is of the gay way too… he is afraid to cum out tho, that's why he had that lame show about being old and a chickenhawk.
Wow! What a jerk. I'm SO over him. I think I'll block HIM! 🙂
I can’t believe it! Now it is ruined for me too! And you totally cracked me up with the Kirk Cameron comment.
I think I’ll cancel my Teen Beat subscription now.

Just did a search on twitter for @thescottbaio.
Lots of messages there saying that account has been hacked.
If that’s true then somebody owes him an apology.
.-= Frank Zieglar´s last blog ..Cartoonmanotosis =-.
Sure are lots of disparaging remarks on here…
.-= Frank Zieglar´s last blog ..Cartoonmanotosis =-.
What do you expect from a dude who lost his virginity to a couch? Srlsy, people are people…
I can’t believe you guys are surprised that he is a douche!
Are we 100% sure it’s him? I mean he doesn’t have a verified account. I think it’s best to not assume it’s him till it’s verified.
.-= DanGarion´s last blog ..Weekly Cool Links #16 – What, it’s been Almost a Month?! =-.
@DanGarion: I wish I could say it wasn’t him, but when he talked about the incident on Glenn Beck, that pretty much proved it 🙁
“He lives for family and GOLF? He equates an activity where you stand around all day and swing a titanium stick at a tiny ball a few times to his FAMILY?”
I think you are being unfair to say that he is “equating” his family to golf. He was simply listing his two passions. Listing them in the same sentence is in no way indicative of him measuring their comparative significance.
He is such a douche! He also did the same thing to my friend: http://bit.ly/40QCwN
.-= Sheema´s last blog ..Really, Scott Baio? Really?! =-.
Sorry you nerds deserved it. He has a right to say whatever he wants (and he’s right about obama and vick) but you two idiots are the ones at fault here, can’t handle an opinion? don’t expose yourself to them lol twitter is for idiots anyway
Thanks for pointing this out. I immediately added scott to my Twitter. About time a Hollywood type showed some sense! Fantastic.
By the way Gwen, get real and grow a skin, NOT everyone needs to agree with you!
You know, kinda with Baio on the whole family and golf thing. Might be a prick to you, but he’s honest, and I like that.
“All that wealth couldn’t buy him class?”
OH SNAP!!! X-D
Ugh. Why does your friend identify herself as a conservative? THIS (Baio) is your party, people.
I had no idea who he was until I saw my wife get upset about this. I know who Gwen Hayes is. Lovely writer.
We are members of the RNC. He’s not a conservative. He’s just a rude has-been.
Um…this might be the funniest thing I’ve ever read. Can’t wait to read the rest of the story.
Will you please be our friend?
Are we sure he is the actual Scott Baio? His twitter account isn’t a verified one like all the famous ones on Twitter
All that wealth couldn’t buy him class?

Dude, this is totally going to end up on TMZ or somewhere and you’ll be FAMOUS. Awesome. And all because of Scott Baio’s jerkiness.
.-= Sonja Foust´s last blog ..Premise Lines =-.
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA. Okay, this made me laugh so freaking hard. WhatEVER. I love how he had to DM you to talk about how wealthy he was. LAME.
Hahaha Jamie!! You rawk girl!! Yeh Scott Baio is a HAS BEEN. HAS ALWAYS BEEN A D**K!! LOL!!
I watched his reality show ONCE and though woah…this guy has some serious f**ken issues!! Never watched it again. See what being a HAS BEEN does to ya with all your fame & fortune! Pshht… I’d gladly take my poor boring life over that crap!! WOOOOOT
You’re my IDOL Jamie!!
.-= Bonnie´s last blog ..Up at the butt crack of dawn?? =-.
LOL. Honestly? He’s very, very rich? Then why is he stuck doing all those lame VH1 reality shows. What an asshat!
.-= Rhonda´s last blog ..Is It Art? Or is it Just Crap? =-.
Chachi?!? NOOOOOOO!!!! Gah – hate when childhood crushes turn out to be asshats 🙁
Once saw Steve -Bionic Man – Austin piss on a golfcourse. No kidding. I was freaking CRUSHED (and shocked and disgusted)
You mean Kirk Cameron didn’t ruin your feelings for him when he threw his lot in with that nutjob Ray Comfort?
PS – Scott Baio is a dumbass. Why did he feel the need to tell you that he’s “VERY VERY RICH”?? Is he compensating for something?? hmmm….
.-= SavageMike´s last blog ..watch out! =-.
Lol I totally agree with Jason and… wow what a douchebag. :X I’ll refrain from saying anything else.
.-= limecello´s last blog ..limecello: @jaciburton :X what if she goes to UT and is a longhorn? :X =-.
Anyone who says “I am VERY VERY RICH”–isn’t.
“I’m VERY VERY Rich.” LULZ!
Yes, watch Fireproof starring Kirk Cameron and you will be instantly cured of your middle school crush on him as well.
.-= dualori´s last blog ..C’mon, Get Down with the Sickness =-.
Um, sorry to crush another dream of yours, but Kirk Cameron went of the deep end too. He’s a total televangelist freak now. Seriously. It’s insanity.
.-= Robert McKay´s last blog ..I Reject Your Holidays and Substitute My Own =-.
OMMFG! What a douche! So many celebrities shooting themselves in the foot lately. And this one is a has-been celebrity! The mind boggles.
Go you, though, Jamie! And you too, Gwen 😀
If there was any doubts that Scott Baio is at least a tad bonkers, his reality program (“Scott Baio Is 45…and Single”) should have dispelled them.
.-= Brian´s last blog ..What’s Wrong with "New Thought"? =-.
I’m so glad this link got tweeted…mostly because I’m a liberal progressive and it’s really, REALLY nice to see a conservative who respects our President – publicly, even. All we really hear are the loud, nasty voices. There are a lot of sick Obama-haters out in the real world and in the twitter world.
So thanks for sharing this, but mostly thanks for being good people in the world.
And if it helps any, I *NEVER* had a crush on Scott Baio and never understood the appeal (I prefer ‘real men’). I did like his two reality series because he didn’t try to pretend he wasn’t a jerky guy, and I respected that he was just himself. But as jerky as he was, the Obama comment was overboard (though I agree about Vick). 🙂
omG.
You really are the bomb!
I heart you Jamie Harrington.
Wow! What a jerk. I’m SO over him. I think I’ll block HIM! 🙂
Hi Jamie 🙂
Wow. *shakes head*
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
xoxo
Rob
