I wake up to find this:
Larry: You are a fucking asshole.
I attempt to query him as to what he is talking about:
me: what??!
Larry: You are a fucking asshole.
me: Yikes. Did something happen I'm not aware of?
Then I get the story:
Larry: I asked you not to use flatulence noises and you did not respect my request then, when I was no longer on the air, you were talking shit about me (I'm told. I didn't listen). It's not funny to me. It's highly disrespectful.
I don't remember "talking shit about him" after the incident, but not wishing to exacerbate any problems, I offered a branch:
me: Well, it was not my intent to upset anyone. As I sort of consider the whole show a gag, perhaps I did not fully understand the seriousness of your feelings on the matter. I apologize for that misunderstanding, and any disrespect you felt. As my favorite guy ever, I continue to hold nothing but respect for you, in real life.
In response to which I was immediately greeted with:
(Larry has logged off.)
What in the holy christing fuck is going on here. This has SOURED me on this whole endeavor.
I don't have to say anything. I'm a doctor, too.
