Topic: Name that Jackass in three words!!!

Additional Comments:

The trick here is finding the best three that apply to him, where there are so many fitting descriptive words for him!

1.   Self Righteous

2.   Hypocrite

3.   Spiteful

That was really hard!   I had about 12 more for honorable mention, but several of them wouldn't have been allowed!

    Since they say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result, I think "Insane" is the only word necessary to describe Jack.  How many times has he taken Carly back, only to get burned by her all over again?  And then he's always surprised.

    Meantime, the same description fits Carly as well.

  • You're forgetting one important thing. Many times before Jack divorced Carly this last time, he told her he accepted her for who she is. IMO, it makes Jack the hypocrite and the one who's untrustworthy, not Carly. ....Canna
  • I remember that! He definitely told her he knew she wasn't going to change, and he would just have to accept her for who she was. Guess that was true until she made him mad again! fee

    1.  Confused:

     ("You're my best friend, my lover, my soulmate, Julia.  You're the one I want to spend the rest of my life with."  Ten minutes later: "I can't stay away from you Carly - I want you.")

    2. Hypocritcal (see # 1 above.)

    3.  Talented (in terms of singing voice, not as a cop):

    (Hey, I tried to end it on a positive)

  • Loyal ? How many affairs ? duuuh !!**
  • LOL! Yeah, the man is loyal to his ''happy happy''. Jack is loyal when it is convenient for him to be loyal when he's in a ''realtionship''. Pretty soon, Janet will do something that will allow Jack to go boink someone else with a clear conscience. eom Linny
  • I doubt if Marty replies, but I sure would be interested to hear who exactly Jack's been loyal to. ....Canna
  • Oh, and FTR, when I wrote my words above Marty, I did so before I read Marty's reply! lol. ....Canna
  • Oh, is he human? I thought he was an alien; one of the ones of The Invaders! I'm always craning my neck to have a look-see to see if his little finger is crooked! fee
  • Hey, yeah, he IS loyal! If he's not MAD at you anyway! fee
  • LOL, fee. Jack has conditions on his loyalty. And love. He has no clue how to love someone unconditionally which is a mystery because every one of his women and his family has always loved HIM unconditionally. He realy is a sorry excuse for a man. Can't figure out why any woman even likes him let alone loves him. It's like living with a big spoiled baby. .....Canna
  • what a hoot reading the stable of jack haters come out & ridicule my three words to describe Jack. Geez you had your chance & I had mine. Since I'm not as intelligent and observant as you guys I must be wrong. Happy Labor Day!!!
  • Marty, I know you don't want to enter into any more debate, but I do honesty wonder how you see Jack as loyal. I think a few posters are wondering that. Just curious (no flaming from me). eom/Renee

    The name that best describes Jack - Carly's True North, Carly's G-Man.  No matter how disgusting we find Jack Snyder, Carly has schemed and lied to catch and keep this jerk.  If that's what she wants, she can have him.

  • What's Carly got to do with describing Jack as a person? ....Canna
  • Forgot....how Carly sees Jack isn't the way Jack is. Carly's delusional and needs psychiatric help. :) ....Canna
  • Fee described Jack as self righteous, hypocrical, spiteful. I agree with that, but most of that behavior is directed at Carly and she doesn't seem to mind. In fact their relationship has become somewhat that of an abusive parent with a difficult child. If Jack changed, the Carjack dynamic would be disappear. So we are stuck with Jack as described. eom/silver
