Creepiest Quotes And Anecdotes

[Nucky Nolan]

Share your recollections of Noory's strangest comments/questions and stories. The following is a verbatim quote of the most disturbing kind. He once asked, "is there a chance that the devil will win, and all the children will be horribly butchered and burned alive?" The creepiest anecdote dealt with his date, who ran out of his house after she saw a dissection kit on his bed.

Would Knapp or any other host (on any other show) ask a question like that? Why in the world would *any* person ask a question like that? If the anecdote is true, why would anyone keep a dissection kit on their bed? If the anecdote is false, why would anyone fabricate such a tale?

He said he had it out because he was taking out a sliver. 

But since I don't believe a word of it, yes, who would concoct such a story - and why?  He obviously grew up in front of the TV.  The oddball in the show is the star:  Gilligan, Fonzie, Dr Morgus, anyone on the Addams Family or the Munsters, Kramer, Spock, etc.  That's who George is trying to be and 60 years later still wonders why people aren't flocking to him

Yep, I too kept that $1.95 high school dissection kit I last used on a formaldehyde-suffused fetal pig for digging out splinters in my body.

Who uses an old dissection kit to remove a splinter?  Who knows where that thing has been.  Get a new pair of tweezers!

Noory:  "You step on a puppy's paw and it wails, I mean IT WAILS!"  This was said to describe what the earth might be doing because humans are hurting it.  Nothing like a puppy torture analogy to drive your retarded point further than needed.

I forgot about the splinter. It was still creepy, though. Why did he have a dissection kit in his house? It was a strange first aid kit to have in one's medicine cabinet....or house. Why would somebody have a dissection kit? Experiments with and taxidermy of gerbils? Like you said many times, it didn't add up for a variety of reasons.

(Not) George Noory: "When I was in school, all the cool kids had dissection kits."

I either forgot or missed that one. That indeed was a creepy analogy. It brought one of his "heartwarming" anecdotes to mind. He mentioned that his dad squashed his pet hamster. Maybe that was the inspiration for future analogies that involved distressed kittens and puppies. I never figured out why he was fascinated by distressed youngsters, though. The quote, in my first post, came out of nowhere. It marked the day when I chose to take off the kid gloves (no pun) in my criticism of Noory.

I may be talking completely through my hat here, but a few years ago Noory told a story about his family visiting his aunt and uncle somewhere near Boston and being driven out of their apartment (which was above their furniture store) by a fire. I'll bet my life that Noory said "my mother, my father, my sisters, my brother and me". I've never heard him mention a brother before or since, but it seems unlikely it would come out of his mouth if one never existed (possible, I guess - we are taking about Mr. Malaprop), and I've wondered since if he may have lost a brother sometime in his life and that's the reason for his seeming obsession with dead and maimed children.

"Doc, I swear - million-to-one shot. I sat down hard on the sofa, and damned if the idiot kid hadn't left his gerbil there. I'd always thought those stories about how guys fell and wound up with gerbils in their asses were all bullshit. But I' guess I'm living proof they're not, huh?"

[ItsOver]

Speaking of furry critters, Noory's comments about "dressing-up" in a lab coat so he could "weigh" his hamsters always sounded weird.  Did he see himself as some kind of Dr. Frankenstein?  Did he have a childhood version of Tommy for his Igor assistant?  Did his Igor assistant replace Noory's brain with an "abby normal" one?

I heard that one a few times. Maybe he meant to say "uncle".

He stepped on it. There was no Richard Gere stuff.

Let's hope that he just wanted to be a veterinarian. If not, he might have been the Herman Mudgett of the hamster world.

Some time ago he mentioned how proud he was of the fact that C2C has a large fanbase in the prison population. Then he said he likes getting letters from them, but he will never respond to those sent from those who commit crimes against children. Then he wanted to have a caller, who admitted to being a convicted rapist, as a guest on the show - 'Tommy'ull get yer info'.

Are you referring to the pedophile who called the show one night? Noory must have talked to him for five to ten minutes.

Possibly. Everything I remember from GN-hosted coast 'sodes is hazy because I intentionally try to fall asleep while listening.  It wouldn't surprise me if they were one and the same.

I also don't think inmate listenership is something to brag about. Nothing against the convicts, just that it probably can be comforting to listen to someone talk live on the radio when you're alone in a cell. C2C with Jorge isn't something special, it's the only thing, at least after Loveline.

George bouncing back and forth between St Louis and LA has reported 2 or 3 interesting incidents upon arrival.

One time he reported (imagine excited Noory voice here) 'antsh ull over thuh placsh, uh whole herd of 'em, they were ev-ry where'.  A herd of ants.

Another time it was flies.  'They came swarming oat uv thuh house, an' inside they were ev-ry where.  I looked all over, an' fine-ly found a dead squirrel under my bed.  It was squashed flat.  I kid yew not.  I don't know how it got inside.  Haw haw haw  '.

I think there might have been another story featuring vermin upon returning home as well.

Or the story about his hampster having babies when he was a kid.  His father stomped them all to death.  In his bare feet.  According to George.

[Doomed]

After reading all of this, one might wonder if there are any unsolved serial killer type murders in St. Louise and/or L.A?

One that makes me laugh is when George and Tommy take a trip to a meat and greet and it's far enough away they have to stay overnight.

At some point, evening of Day One I think, they're outside and George falls into a mud hole.   They return to the hotel and go to sleep.  Next morning George sends Tommy out to buy a change of clothes, and while Tommy is out George for some reason is apparently stark naked (heh, sorry for that mental image) and standing by the picture window.

Before Tommy gets back, the window cleaning crew are outside his window and catch George standing there.  Tommy finally gets back, knocks meekly on the door,  leaves the clothes out in the hall for George to get, pull into the room, put on and wear, and off they go to the next event.

Creepy stuff.


But my questions are - why doesn't George already have a change of clothes for the next day - who travels overnight to a public event without clean clothes?  Doesn't George have a towell, or even a rinsed off pair of shorts to wear while waiting the next morning - who wants to sit on that couch or chairs now?  After being with George either sharing a room with him or just watching TV in the evening before bed, why does Tommy need to stay down the hall while George dresses - is he going to 'look'?...

The only ones I've heard about involved half-eaten convenience story turkey sandwiches and Kiwi-covered mustache hairs being left behind at suspected sites.

when was this call!!? it sounds like last night was worth a download what with mr mindfuck and this pedo guy.

This one isn't creepy, but it's a personal favorite involving 'street smarts'.

Ian once reported going to an NFL game - I don't remember which 2 teams but it was two rivals from the old Black and Blue division (Bears, Vikings, Lions, Packers).  It was probably Bears at either Minnesota or Green Bay, since Ian grew up in Illinois and based on tis story must be a Bears fan.

Anyway, he gets end zone seats and shows up wearing the road team's jersey.  Now most people realize the end zone is not the most polite and welcoming place for the visiting teams fans, but there he was.  So people were tossing insults his way and finally he gets doused by a beer.  Nothing too serious.  Our intrepid host then tattles to a security guard who responds with a 'well, what did you expect?'...

There was a snapshot of Ian in his jersey mugging for the camera on his old blog - likely pre-game, pre-beer dousing - but I haven't seen it around for awhile..

[ItsOver]

Even without a road team jersery, "Flounder" Ian may as well hang a "punch me" sign around his neck, if he's setting in the end zone with a bunch of drunk NFL fans. 





The security guard should have told Ian "my advice is to start drinking heavily."

Yeah, it's a captive audience. Maybe they use it to punish the prisoners. I suppose that it's better than bragging about the listenership in group homes and mental institutions. I don't listen to Noory-hosted shows in order to stay out of that last one.

Did he find critters in his grill? He must have a Noah's Ark full of roadkill. I don't get how a dead and squashed squirrel made its way under his bed.

(Not) George Noory: "I got home and saw a flock of squashed shadow rodents on my couch; I kid you not!"

"mom I can't sleep!!! George is BREATHING TOO LOUD"

by far the scariest concept I've ever had to think of... and it was straight from his memoirs.

[Nucky Nolan]

Yeah, I mentioned that up-thread. I didn't know that he stomped all of them, though.
