07.10.09 GORDON RAMSAY F’D WITH THE WRONG MARINE

In the upcoming Season 6 premiere of Hell’s Kitchen, host Gordon Ramsay does his usual act of being a profane dickhead, and one contestant — a former Marine — gets up in his face and offers to take him outside and beat his ass.

Contestant Joseph conflicts with the shouty chef from the outset, refusing to eat an undercooked vegetable without a fork (”I’m not an animal”) and grimacing at the prospect of a luxurious seaside reward lunch (”This isn’t what I’m here for”). But after performing as one of the best players on the men’s team, Joseph wigs when Ramsay makes his usual simple request to name two of his teammates for elimination. Contestants have stood up to Ramsay’s bullying before, but not like this. [The Live Feed]

Of course, Ramsay bitched out.  He’s a big tough TV guy crossing his arms and swearing at everyone and treating people like crap, but his authority comes from the cameras and people’s fear.  Anyone who’s survived Marine boot camp thinks that Gordon Ramsay couldn’t berate someone out of a paper bag.  We cornered the market on profane dickheads, buddy.  Marine drill instructors have taken yelling and swearing to a linguistic plane beyond the English language.  Some British twat isn’t going to intimidate us.  THESE COLORS DON’T RUN, BABY!  **puts 9/11 sticker on V-12 Ford F350**

Duke of Madness says:

We need a show where this bitch starts to run his mouth and then gets the crap kicked out of him by someone different every week. That would be appointment television.

Yamabushi says:

In season 6 he had no idea Ramsey was going to yell at him? really?
I guess Marines can be reality show attention whores just like everybody else.

Kid Presentable says:

I like how Joseph torched the studio at the end of the clip.

This big, tough Marine is so tough that he signed up for a reality TV show!!! He’s just like Spencer Pratt.

I think by ‘Marine’ they meant ‘marina maintenance worker’…you know, from Sea World

Evil Taco says:

Ever see Ramsay’s credentials? A good half of head chefs, at least, act like that, and Ramsay at least has the creds to back up bitching at people for screwing up.

I love how people go after him, guaranteed after people get out of his training they’re a whole different magnitude of chef.

Matt, I think you’re seeing this one through camo-colored glasses. This guy’s a douche. Sure, Ramsey is too, but that’s his job.

I didn’t know the Marines lowered their standards that much. Looks like the only physical training this guy had was lifting a ladle in the mess hall.

GRRRR TV TOUGH GUYS!

Watch out or Kevin Connelly will totally beat you up, bro. (That kid was on Conan a few days ago and I can’t get how teeny he was out of my mind. He’s like a buck 10.)

rigsby says:

seriously, is there a blogger core of the marines? every blog on this network is written by a fucking jarhead*

*did i say that right? i think i did.

Chief Plonker says:

You would think that an ex marine would have 1. done his research and seen what was coming from the previous five seasons and 2. be used to being yelled at (unless that is why he is EX?? Marine)

What a tool! I’m sure he will get his five minutes of fame once eliminated and doing the talk show route – he may have even won a few bets and a couple of fans – but not the top job!

July 11th, 2009 at 3:30 pm
CityTrader says:

Gordon Ramsey is a completely self-absorbed, foul-mouthed cock. He’s a jerk for cheating on his wife and he needs to have his ass kicked.

July 11th, 2009 at 3:46 pm
Alan says:

I have to agree with Chief Plonker. What was the guy going to do, punch Gordon in front of all the cameras (real smart)? Way to prove you are a big man. Some might not agree with Gordon’s way of managing a kitchen but he is a worldwide renowned chef. Way to break into the business, soldier.

July 11th, 2009 at 6:56 pm
brad says:

Ramsay is absolutely unbearable.

July 11th, 2009 at 7:00 pm
DQ says:

Erm.. thats how chefs talk. Are you seriously telling me this “marine” can’t take being shouted at? I thought military men were taught discipline? Maybe that’s only “british twat” military SOP.

If you can’t take orders, how the hell can you expect to give orders and have them followed? I’m sure he’ll last long.

Kevin says:

I was a linguist for the Army for a few years and I can’t tell you how many times a Marine jumped up and got in my face for some imagined slight. They live on a steady diet of false bravado. Gordon has nothing to worry about since there is only one Marine there. They will never back up their words with actions unless they have a few friends there to help them out. Damn, I hate Marines.

July 11th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
John Stamos says:

First of all. Fuck Gordon Ramsey.

Most importantly, this whole inauthentic crap that passes for television is hard to bare, even for this 10 second clip. Its clearly set up, its clearly garbage. I dont know why there is a class of american (and brits) who get off on the deprecation of others. PRobably because it makes them feel a bit better about their place in life, probably.

matt p says:

For all you pricks talking shit about a skinny former marine. major thing for him vs you i dont know him and i would still bring his ass to combat. for you shit talking dick heads yea its reality tv but i will tell you something right now if Gordon Ramsey yelled at me like that i wouldnt have even asked him to go outside i would have just fucking knocked his bitch ass out. and for the idiot who used the term “JarHead” you do not fucking rate to use that word.

July 11th, 2009 at 10:25 pm
Kevin says:

@ matt p
Given a choice, I would not bring this soldier into combat with me. I want someone who can keep their shit together in my foxhole. He signed up to be yelled at by Ramsey and now he doesn’t like it. How is this “jarhead” going to do when bullets start flying and he decides he doesn’t like it?

Before you judge Ramsay as a worthless dick, you should read this brief excerpt about Ramsay by Anthony Bourdain.

haha says:

fuck marines. ya think your all big and bad. fuck yourselves. fucking dumb bitches. im tired of this semper fi bullshit and acting like your all that. ive fucked up many marines in my life and i will do it again. your normal people with a huge ego. that is all.

July 21st, 2009 at 10:11 pm
Your Are Stupid says:

I can’t believe I’m reading this..
Why does all “SO CALLED” marines in this thread seem like complete fuc*ing idiots ??
I don’t care what you;ve seen, done’ or been through.. stupid fuc*s…lol
It is only a matter of respect. But you marines probably never had a mother to teach you that right ? Or no… guys listening to their mothers are wussies..right ??..lol

He signed up to the show.. and he doesnt show respect.. I really was wishing for Rawosey to fu**ing KICK his ass in front of the camera.. (which obviously would not happen)..

My point is : You people saying that this marine should have hit him.. YOU are dick heads.. and are NEVER going to succeed in life. That is NO MATTER if you held a gun or not.. stupid.

July 21st, 2009 at 10:18 pm
JarheadBad Ass says:

First of all HaHa, you are a moron. Second, that is not how Marines should act. Hes obviously as bright as you. The Corps got dumb fucks also, just like every branch of the service. The comment we are all bad asses with attitudes, No stupid people need there ass kicked once and a while wether they are Former Marines or not.

July 21st, 2009 at 10:36 pm
Jessica says:

Beautifully put haha. I too am sick of these egotistic marine fags. Guess what? Just because you have been to boot camp and been screamed at by drill seargants doesnt make you any more tough than a normal guy. Some people have grown up in a household getting thier ass kicked everyday by abusive parents and eventually when they get old enough start to hold thier own. D you see these people acting all tough and bad? No, they dont need to because they KNOW thy can kick ass, they dont need to talk themselves up.

Besides that the best part of this show is when they have the contestants talking about how great their cooking is ect. and then gordon spits it in thier faces HAHAHAHA you suck asshole. Are you gonna finally learn to stop being such a snobby little conceited ego maniac?? Thanx gordon!!

July 21st, 2009 at 10:39 pm
Jessica says:

Jarhead badass……you are just as retarted. Look at your name for christs sake. Maybe if the majority of marines didn act that way we wouldn think the way we do. Ya obviously not all are like that, but like i said, your name says it all.

July 21st, 2009 at 10:53 pm
LOL says:

lmfao this so called marine was a fucking cook in the army what a little faggot ramsay should bitch slap his ass back to fucking ny. stupid fucking americans

July 21st, 2009 at 11:29 pm
Kyrandos says:

Unfortunate behavior for a marine to crack under a dude whose made his fame from acting exactly like that. Threatening physical violence because someone hurt your feelings on a show where he’s SUPPOSED to yell out you.. well, let’s just say most of us in the military are a bit more disciplined than this.

randalsr24 says:

So, what did Joseph mean when he told Gordon Ramsey, “I ain’t no bitch?” What underlying issue or reference is Joseph alluding to?

July 22nd, 2009 at 3:30 am
Anothercoilgun says:

Stop with all the military analysis!!!! Joseph has serious problems and none of which is Ramsey, Hell’s Kicthen, or the military. Did any of you learn anything from psychology classes? This guy is the worlds best text book character I have ever seen.
Ramsey? Are you shitting me! This guy Joseph lashes out at anything that moves. What does Ramsey have anything to do with this assholes demeanor.

Joseph is a 5150 wacko. I’d sleep with my .50AE cause Joseph has absolutely no intention on cooking but on destroying randomly. Ramsey should kick his ass just on principal.

When you see the end of episode 2 you will understand.

Joseph had a snowballs chance in hell to be winner. No one wants to be around this mental person. Average Mean time between jobs will be 6 months.

This kid is a tool who was probably sectioned eight out of the corp – he has brought dishonor upon himself and the USMC!

Well it’s obvious HaHa and Jessica aren’t from America.

Quansit says:

You marines give us real jarheads a bad name.
I bet half of you couldn’t kick the shit out of a baby’s dirty diaper, and the other half are too dumb to know what a diaper is.

July 22nd, 2009 at 8:03 pm
JarheadBad Ass says:

The Jarheadbadass login was meant as a joke, because of all of the morons that sit and think because they see on Marine on a show that is a complete idiot(section 8)that all Marines are like him? Its unfortunate if the people posting hateful blogs against The Marines, obviously never served and secondly are itimidated by the ones they have met. I go back to my original statement. Stupid people need to get there ass kicked once and a while wether they are former marines(not ex) or not. So stop the bashing. I hope that english wanker kicks his stupid(I aint your bitch ass) he’s got it coming. He couldnt answer a simple question. Hes an idiot.

July 23rd, 2009 at 2:02 am
Derek says:

I think Gordan is awesome. He’s a big guy too, would kick the shit out of the marine IMO

July 23rd, 2009 at 4:51 am
Darren says:

The guy is all bark, after giving hell to tracey G in Austraia he bolted out of OZ. You have to remeber he is like the old guy in the retirement village that keeps swaring at the Nurses….. All Back no Bite… and big tough guy with the woman….. I agree in the last comments less talk more action, tough guys.

July 24th, 2009 at 12:32 pm
USA says:

LOL stupid marine. Don’t know why some of us Americans are so needing to prove ourselves that we would indulge ourselves in this marine who thinks he is so tough because he went to some boot camp. the fact is that Marines are taught to tolerate situations, to think under high stress, and to obey orders of your superiors. In this case, this marine just showed how much of a wuss he is. He simply could have just listened and take the orders like all those other chefs, but no….he had to go and show how tough he is by not understanding simple instructions and retaliating like some stupid stubborn teenager.

I wouldn’t praise a man like that at all.

July 24th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
PoliticalHacker says:

First, why are so many of you berating Marines in general? Most Marines I’ve known emerged from the Corps with a level of professionalism and, at least contrived, humility. I wouldn’t call that little punk a Marine. He’s an embarrassment to the Corps. What kind of little bitch can’t take a bit of mouth diarrhea from a grumpy old chef? The punk entered the show with an unwarranted chip on his scrawny shoulder. He appears to be one of those overcompensating, scared bad-asses. He’s probably hoping to get kicked off the show for his behavior so he can go around boasting about how he would’ve won the show if it wasn’t for his supreme bad-assedness.

July 24th, 2009 at 5:13 pm
JarheadBad Ass says:

enough said. Semper fi.

July 29th, 2009 at 12:41 pm
Jim says:

He kept saying he was nobody’s bitch but he was a marine cook, he is everyone’s bitch. USMC’s own studies have shown that the average I.Q. for a marine is 15 points lower than the general population.

August 4th, 2009 at 1:25 pm
Ethan says:

Whats up with the all Marine talk? The guys is just a total asshole, Ramsay would kick the shit out of that boy any time. Besides marines are just regular soldiers in masses, absolutely nothing special about them.

Chris says:

First off. I am a Marine Staff Sergeant. Im not here to berate my own. But, for all The Marines on here talking shit, take it down a notch!! Your Making our Corp look and sound like a bunch of damned idiots!!! Stop acting like that 10%,that we as leaders of Marines deal with after 96’s, or after a post deployment leave bock. All of, or a good portion the slander being put on us and our Corps, unfortunatly is because of us. Its the idiots who constantly sit in formation and get told, “dont drink and drive, dont smoke no dope, and wrap it before you slap it”, but don’t listen. they are getting picked up on monday mornings from the O’side, or J’ville jails and going straight into restriction until their NJP. or getting popped on a whizz quiz, or getting thier bore punched 2 weeks later.This guy joseph (IS) a Marine, and I’ll defend him as one of our own (even if some of you other (if you really are) Marines won’t. Shit bird he may be, but he’s ours damnit!!! some of you need to remember commitment regardless of whether your still in, or out. UNSAT is all i can say! Good on those of you who actually did stick up for him.
For the Civilians: You really have no idea, and will never even ever develop a concept of what Marines go through. You also will never understand the true bond Marines develope. whether is 4 or 20 yrs. You go to you little jobs everyday and you have co workers. thats it. It starts and stops there. I can’t even Phathom the idea of trying to explain it to you. you’ll never have any idea until you do it yourself. simply put. (Marines: you know what im saying). We as a Corps, train daily, weekly, monthly, and year round developing and honing our skills in order to fight. WE do this so we can protect our fellow americans who can’t seem to fight for themselves. We defend you. Also, we as the Marines, like to think we are producing a good product of society when we send a Marine on his way back into the civilian sector. but hey every Machine has a few gears that need oiled right? So,(for those of you who are american) and sitting there berating us? do American society a favor and take a long walk off a short cliff. You’d at least be doing useful by fertilizing the soil at the bottom of the cliff. We as Marines aren’t perfect, but i like to think we’re a hairsite better then the crackhead mom using her welfare to buy more shit instead of feeding here 4 kids she should have to begin with, or the deadbeat dad who can only think about slamming another damned needle full of heroin into his arm. We are above that. (at least 90%) are. hence my 10% comment earlier. No one’s perfect in either society. plain and simple. But we should all be ashamed for sitting there screaming at each other about stupid shit like a reality tv show. Dumb. Is all I can say. oh and uh…all you foriegners who like to get onto american websites and bash us? well get as mad as you want but the fact still remains. we are the greatest nation. we have so much to be thankful for, and most of us are. To bad your country cant do the same for you. I just pity you. Being raised in blind stupidity. oh and a couple more shout outs before i go. Political hacker: Thanks. You make valid points. Rigsby? your an idiot. Kevin? anytime, any place. haha? well i had a few chioce words for you to, but im gonna be the better person here and say good luck. If you ever live to actually develop a common thought process.

Well im a Brit, Welsh to be precise, and i happen to think that Gorden Ramsey is an obnoxious overbearing misogynist, and i would love to see some1 any1 take that smug look off his ugly mug!!!!
