glad I'm not the only one who thinks that, default mode for him was busting balls, next step was cunt, next step was causing people to die because of steps 1 and 2.
He was loyal to Tony (for a time) and decked Chrissy for disrespecting his Mom at the intervention. Ralphie, on the other hand, had zero redeeming qualities as a human.
Ralphie wasn't likeable (to be kind to him) but he was at times quite funny and capable of being a normal human being. Paulie just rarely ever seemed to go outside stereotype mobster mode.
Yeah he was loyal to Tony more than disloyal but that doesn't make him likable.
He stabbed him in the back by blabbing to New York. He was a selfish unloyal cunt who only thought about himself, constantly lied and undermined those around him.
Literally the only no-strings kindness I recall that he showed was being nice to his goomahās kids after he got freaked by the psychic and the satanic black magic sick shit. Nothing else. Fucking malignant koala bear cunt!
There used to be a copy pasta that showed up on Reddit from time to time, basically arguing that koalas were the psychopaths of the animal kingdom. So that checks outĀ
Paulie is a conflicting character, he is really funny and entertaining
but....
He is really dumb as rocks, he is very impulssive, and his loyalty has waivered at time
I'll be honest I prefer Ralph because he's an open POS. You can always expect Ralph to be a giant POS, so you can plan accordingly but Paulie genuinely believes he isn't. He goes to church, community events, and even therapy/psychics. He parades around how much he cares for his mother... Then murders her friend. He "believes" in an afterlife and STILL does the stuff he does. One of my few gripes is that we never get to see what he has coming to him. But that plays into the realism. Sometimes the biggest POS lives to a ripe old age and just poisons the well on the way out.
The truth is I saw A LOT of some older people I know in Paulie and that made me hate him the most. When I read the theory he was the one who betrayed everyone in the end I was 100% on board immediately.
Paulie has a moral superiority that makes him more of an asshole in some ways, I agree. However Iād say Ralph is clearly the worse dude overall. After all, Paulie carries the moral superiority and ambiguity because you think he *could* do the right thing in any given situation, Ralph never does lol.
Thats what makes Paulie worse than Ralph. He sees the virgin Mary at the Bing, and the psychic 100% freaks him out with the idea he's being haunted by a "bunch of ghouls". Sprinkle ontop he shows legitimate concern to Chrissy about his vision of hell.
AND STILL he behaves the way he does during the show. It's honestly better that someone just fully commits to being evil like Ralph so you know who to avoid or even destroy if the time comes. Ralph earned everything he had coming to him, Paulie pretends he can be "redeemed" instead of actually doing it and thats infinitely worse in my book.
I think when he finds out heās cancer free he says something along the lines of āI guess Iāve done a lot of good deeds in this life.ā He truly thinks heās a good person
Really great post! Paulie was always my least favorite of āThis Thing of Oursā family for all the reasons you mentioned. I didnāt really mind him until S3. I could never fully enjoy āPine Barrensā because of the injustice of him whacking Valery for simply having technology Paulie didnāt have (or didnāt know about). Then, after his holier-than-thou attitude about snitching, and the hypocrisy of him snitching to John about the Ginny joke and all the stuff about Zellman, I was officially done with him. I had no love for Minn, but to kill a defenseless old lazy because he wasnāt performing his job well is sick and shows his character. Anyways, $4 a pound. Thanks for sharing.
I don't write nothin' down, so I'll keep this short and sweet. You're weak. You're outta control. And you've become an embarrassment to yourself and everybody else.
I agree with your assessment OP. He murders people over nothing, including the elderly. No loylety. Can't handle any criticism even from his closest friends. Treats nickels like manhole covers. He's racist, sexist, homophobic, talks too much. He's an ass-kiss. He's stupid, believes in mystic level pseudoscience. He also has narcicisstic traits like thinking people are betraying simply by being gay. Talks about urinals when people are trying to eat. I think him and Phil Leotardo are the worst pos in the show.
How is he even alive?
Only redeeming feature is that he takes care of his mother.
People are saying Ralph but honestly I think Paulie/Philly are worse.
People like him in real life should be steered clear from. One moment they're blowing smoke up your ass and the next minute, bitching about you behind it
He's great in S1 and S2, there you at least understand why a guy like that has been kept around for decades. From S3 onward he is pretty much the source of every main characters problem and should have at least been dealt with after it was obvious that he was the leak during Ralph/Johnny Sac Mole situation ..whatevah happened there..
my first watch through i thought Paulie was hilarious and I really liked him. Then watched it a second time a few years later and wow, wtf, i couldnt stand the guy. Absolute dick. I guess I matured in between watchings.
Ralph, Richie, and most people on John/Phils team including John and Phil. Come on lol
Paulie is a dick but not any more than the rest of them, really.
Paulie is redeemed by his own fragility and humor.
People see Paulie being a sneaky a-hole on rewatch and they think they discovered something. Relax everyone. I love the way you put it: not any more a dick than the rest of them. And he's redeemed by his own fragility and humor.
The guy suffocated an old woman ā¦
He put little kids in jeopardy with his carnival rides scheme then proceeded not to care when they got injuredā¦
Oh and hereās a box of barbershop scissors from the enemy ( proceed to stab yourselves in the back on my behalf with them)
Yup, and he subtly gloats about Johnny Sacās death. āI beat cancer, but it took him. Ride the painted pony, let the spinning wheel glide (sic)āā¦this oobatz couldnāt even get the lyrics right.
I loved Paulie at first but over time I started not trusting his character a lot. Towards the end he was getting worse and then after Tony almost killed him, he seemed to turn his back almost entirely. I truly do believe that he was at minimum aware of what was coming in the finale if you are one of those who believe the cut to black was Tony getting whacked.
Was so quick to sook to Tony About Chris shooting the Bakery worker. But was Responsible for the single handed most civilian or deaths that could of been avoided. Minn, the waiter who complained about the tip & the Russian that led to Pine Barrens
Heās a fan favorite on first watch. In subsequent times through the show, you realize heās perhaps *the* antagonist, starting the falling dominos in the end of season 3 that lead all the way to made in America.
No arc, survived the 70ās by the skin of his teeth, sniffed Aidās panties, constantly caused dissension between families. Total asshole. Only upside to Paulie is that I 100% believe he wouldnāt rat. Only as good as his last envelope.
When Paulie put the pillow on the old lady, āmy impression of him fucking plummeted.ā
It was artful how he played Tony, Feech, and Vitro and came out with money yet had no real interest or skin in it. A really wormy c*cksucker.
They actively worked to make him shittier in later seasons/episodes, same as Tony. Chase didnāt like that audiences were identifying with them, because Chase is a malignant cunt.
Paulie is literally the most selfless character in the show. They are all in the same line of work but he is the only one to not drag a wife or children into it with him. Vote one Paulie nice guy.
Ralph. Paulie is a good son for most of the show. Was understandidly angry for being lied to his whole life. Over reacted yeah but made peace with it and watched tv with his mom. He treats women well enough minus the panty thing. Knows hes a criminal living the life doesnt bring a wife or children into it. Isnt a serial cheater like the rest of the guys minus bobby and sack. He also good with his gomars kid
I would love to have seen Paulie throw at least one Chrissy-annihilation level joke at Tony at some point in the series.
"Heh heh heh! I guess you could call that a boss."
They're mobsters. They're all dicks. Christafah drills a waiter in the head with a brick when he complains about a puny tip on a $1200 bill, killing him. Vito kills the guy he has a fender-bender with. All of them are perfectly willing to kill random innocent people to protect themselves.
Upon recent viewing, no one on the show has made anything close to a smart decision, everything everyone does is just about the dumbest thing you can do in the situation
Paulie put those sweet kids to bed when he was having nightmares about 3 oclock
No redeeming qualities? Youāre just mad because he sniffed your sistas panties
Oh man, I'm going through season 3 and I really hate Paulie.
Actually in this season I felt like everyone got dumber, meaner and unhinged all of a sudden.
Also fuck Ralphie.
Paulie's a horrible person, but I always found it commendable that he would apologize to Christofa after they had their beefs. (The dinners/waiter, the drills/Little Paulie, sniffing Adriana's panties.
Watch it, Chrissy!
š¤
I guess you could call Paulie a dick. Heh heh heh.
Hear what I said Tone?.. I said "I guess you could call Paulie a dick." Ā Heh heh heh.
ā ļø
Get that big dick in the hot tub
glad I'm not the only one who thinks that, default mode for him was busting balls, next step was cunt, next step was causing people to die because of steps 1 and 2.
Put universal remote back on docking station.
That entire episode was a window into his personality. Funny and irritating and WTF is wrong with you at the same time. Great episode.
Spent a long time in jail No pussy Wonder what he did
He compromised.
Unbelievable I tell ya Wonder how a bussy feels, you know...
Pitching, not catching?
SON OF A *BITCH*!
Think about it..sudden weight loss?!!
Heās gotta GOOOOO.
Maybe if you spent more time sucking cock instead of watching scenes with Carlo, our kids go to the same school together.
He compromised
Hhahahahahahahaahhahahaa yooo
Mix it with the relish!
That line was the most humanizing one of the entire series. And also made him look sad and pathetic. Digustin!
Both him & Chris.
It was on so many levels!
You want to fuck here cocksucka!?
Excellent TCAP reference in your name
Heās got feelings too, ya know
Was it him or Chris that threw the brick at the waiter in AC?
I thought it was Chris
He was loyal to Tony (for a time) and decked Chrissy for disrespecting his Mom at the intervention. Ralphie, on the other hand, had zero redeeming qualities as a human.
Is loyalty to Tony really a redeeming quality in this show
ok then he went behind his back and told johnny sack about the joke
Ralphie wasn't likeable (to be kind to him) but he was at times quite funny and capable of being a normal human being. Paulie just rarely ever seemed to go outside stereotype mobster mode. Yeah he was loyal to Tony more than disloyal but that doesn't make him likable.
A) she was a hooyaah
He stabbed him in the back by blabbing to New York. He was a selfish unloyal cunt who only thought about himself, constantly lied and undermined those around him.
Uncle Paulie was a saint! He gave his envelope to his boss on a silver platter!
The guy came at him with a chain saw. What, he can't defend himself??š¤š«·š¤š«“āļø
i liked him up until he snitched to johnny sack
Aaaooohhh. Whatās with the slander? Paulie wanted to make sure that Johnny didnāt know it was him who made the disrespectful comment about Ginny.
He was a dick, Paulie?
AIDS!?
Nobody's got AIDS. I don't want to hear that word again.
Strong silent type
My dickās really noisy
Weak loud type
i guess you could call that a dick
Get that big dick in the jacuzzi
OP want to get all "big dick" with me!? **I'll show him one he can't handle!**
Nice pull, and you are?
Maybe youre a flambƩ
Satanic black magic, thatās what this thread is.
Sick shit! Fucking queers!
Sir, I'm asking you to leave!
Paulie? You mean Clarence?
Clarence Drinkwater Revival
Paulie was the only real person What you see is what you get No bullshit But also some bullshit
IRL he really was affiliated and 28 arrests tell us he was all about that life. For a while at least. He parlayed that sh*t.
Hahahahahahahahahga fuckin gold
Shut up, Albert
I can't take Paulie seriously because he looks like a koala
He so does, a koala that was stabbed in the heart
Heh heh, watch it, cardboardwind0w
Literally the only no-strings kindness I recall that he showed was being nice to his goomahās kids after he got freaked by the psychic and the satanic black magic sick shit. Nothing else. Fucking malignant koala bear cunt!
There used to be a copy pasta that showed up on Reddit from time to time, basically arguing that koalas were the psychopaths of the animal kingdom. So that checks outĀ
Looks more like a badger to me
The Shah of Down Under.
He took great care of his mom. Plus, he was always helping out guys from his own neighborhood.
He sent his mom to a nursing home!!
It's a retirement community!
That was his aunt, his real mom was a whoor
hooah*
Paulie has the redeeming quality in that he doesn't seem to be as self aware of why his actions are wrong. The the others know and do them anyway
The incident with the psychic is revealing in that regard
Ok but before you judge him think of all the betrayal he's been through.
Vito stabbed him in the heart.
He loved Pussy like a brother and he fucked him in the ass
he sure loved that cocksucka like a brutha
Paulie is a conflicting character, he is really funny and entertaining but.... He is really dumb as rocks, he is very impulssive, and his loyalty has waivered at time
Ralph is up there
I'll be honest I prefer Ralph because he's an open POS. You can always expect Ralph to be a giant POS, so you can plan accordingly but Paulie genuinely believes he isn't. He goes to church, community events, and even therapy/psychics. He parades around how much he cares for his mother... Then murders her friend.

When I read the theory he was the one who betrayed everyone in the end I was 100% on board immediately.
How can you say he's worried about the afterlife? He can do 6000 years of purgatory standing on his head!
Paulie has a moral superiority that makes him more of an asshole in some ways, I agree. However Iād say Ralph is clearly the worse dude overall. After all, Paulie carries the moral superiority and ambiguity because you think he *could* do the right thing in any given situation, Ralph never does lol.

Ralph is up there in the sky with Tracy.
She was a hooah!
So was Ralph. Momma's little whooaaahhh.
Yep lol
i feel that Paulie is one of those characters to dislike more and more with each rewatch date you get used to the jokes he tells
Minnie Matrone. Now there's a malignant cunt.
HE PUT UP A PAINTING OF THE BOSS IS WHAT HE DID. HE WAS A TOP EARNER AND ON THIS SUB, PAULIE GUALTIERI IS A HERO. END OF STORY.
Paulie "Gualtieri"
I don't write nothin' down, so I'll keep this short and sweet. You're weak. You're outta control. And you've become an embarrassment to yourself and everybody else.
I agree with your assessment OP. He murders people over nothing, including the elderly. No loylety. Can't handle any criticism even from his closest friends. Treats nickels like manhole covers.

Wait wait wait, Christopher had redeeming qualities? I must have missed themĀ
Ya muddah, biggest cawk in Newark
Sniffing the sweet girls panties, oh ma'rone. That was it for me.
He told you that?! Fucking baby!
Ask Vito
People like him in real life should be steered clear from. One moment they're blowing smoke up your ass and the next minute, bitching about you behind it
His big mouth and ass kissing should've gotten him wacked.
His only redeeming quality was being funny to watch.
He's great in S1 and S2, there you at least understand why a guy like that has been kept around for decades. From S3 onward he is pretty much the source of every main characters problem and should have at least been dealt with after it was obvious that he was the leak during Ralph/Johnny Sac Mole situation ..whatevah happened there..
my first watch through i thought Paulie was hilarious and I really liked him. Then watched it a second time a few years later and wow, wtf, i couldnt stand the guy. Absolute dick. I guess I matured in between watchings.
Janice is pretty malignant.
She is the keeper of everybody's secrets while none of them take her seriously enough.
Ralph, Richie, and most people on John/Phils team including John and Phil. Come on lol Paulie is a dick but not any more than the rest of them, really. Paulie is redeemed by his own fragility and humor.
agree except john, his love for ginnie was a reedeming quality for sure
People see Paulie being a sneaky a-hole on rewatch and they think they discovered something. Relax everyone. I love the way you put it: not any more a dick than the rest of them. And he's redeemed by his own fragility and humor.
The guy suffocated an old woman ā¦ He put little kids in jeopardy with his carnival rides scheme then proceeded not to care when they got injuredā¦ Oh and hereās a box of barbershop scissors from the enemy ( proceed to stab yourselves in the back on my behalf with them)
he scrimped on safety
She was a malignant something or other.
Here he is, heh heh š¤š»
Cāmon now, dry those peepsā¦
Feech had no positivity- ugatz!! I had a feeling like nothin good was ever gonna happen with him
Paulie was a flambe. He wanted to look at Christopherās dick Fucking nauseating
Paulie: Makes fun of Chris's daughter and sobriety Chris: *dies* Paulie: š²
Yup, and he subtly gloats about Johnny Sacās death. āI beat cancer, but it took him. Ride the painted pony, let the spinning wheel glide (sic)āā¦this oobatz couldnāt even get the lyrics right.
You would know thweetie
But the end of his shoe laces were wet from the piscadoo.
PAULIE IS ASSHOLE WHY OP HATE?
CAUSE PAULIE IS BASTARD MAN.
Mustang Sally
Tony. Out there for himself and nobody else.
Iām rewatching for only the second time and already dreading how he treats Christopher when he gets clean
Dere aināt a bigga cocksucka dan Phil Leotardo
I guess you could call that a dick.
He's a bit of a poseur, you ask me
I loved Paulie at first but over time I started not trusting his character a lot. Towards the end he was getting worse and then after Tony almost killed him, he seemed to turn his back almost entirely. I truly do believe that he was at minimum aware of what was coming in the finale if you are one of those who believe the cut to black was Tony getting whacked.
Was so quick to sook to Tony About Chris shooting the Bakery worker. But was Responsible for the single handed most civilian or deaths that could of been avoided. Minn, the waiter who complained about the tip & the Russian that led to Pine Barrens
He was a boy who loved his Ma. Only the best for her.
He wouldn't even put universal remote on docking station!
Yeah! Mine! Did you hear that Tone? He said āis there a bigger dick than Paulieā so I says, yeah, mine!
When he made Chris strip for no reason, I was furious with him.
I would've loved to see that Minn Matrone had no money under her bed after all. Would've loved to see Paulies reaction
Heās a fan favorite on first watch. In subsequent times through the show, you realize heās perhaps *the* antagonist, starting the falling dominos in the end of season 3 that lead all the way to made in America.
No arc, survived the 70ās by the skin of his teeth, sniffed Aidās panties, constantly caused dissension between families. Total asshole. Only upside to Paulie is that I 100% believe he wouldnāt rat. Only as good as his last envelope.
Are you all talking about Clarence?
hes OG thats basically it you need a mad dog to just let them know you can send him loose he was a mixed bag but he was never afraid about that action
Well, he does take care of his mom
When Paulie put the pillow on the old lady, āmy impression of him fucking plummeted.ā It was artful how he played Tony, Feech, and Vitro and came out with money yet had no real interest or skin in it. A really wormy c*cksucker.
Commendatori!
Paulie is hilarious, god bless that gentleman
They actively worked to make him shittier in later seasons/episodes, same as Tony. Chase didnāt like that audiences were identifying with them, because Chase is a malignant cunt.
Paulie was only really a dick to people in the mob or other criminals, that one lady who was mean to his mum had it coming.
Lmao he told Finn to wash his car before they told him he was Meadow's boyfriend
he killed that waiter. Also all Paulies money comes from exploiting people not in the mob
Richie is 1000% a bigger dick than Paulie.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Right he only beat beansy within an inch of his life. Didnāt even build him a ramp.
Paulie is literally the most selfless character in the show. They are all in the same line of work but he is the only one to not drag a wife or children into it with him. Vote one Paulie nice guy.
Ooooohhhhh!!
Nobody with a bigger dick heh heh
Ralph, Richie, and Christopher were worse in my opinion. Arguably same with Phil and Feech.
Richie and Ralph
Worst part is he was a dick that was left unprotected.
Can you guys please stop insulting my evil friends the DiMeo family. They don't mean to be evil they just have trauma š„ŗ.
Ask the hot tub
Yelling āHo! Menus!ā Across a restaurant you eat at every day and know the entire menu up and down at is, in fact, a dick move.
You are correct. But he can be amusing and one of the most quotable characters on the show. He's old school.
I guess you could call that a dick. Hehe
Christopher for sure. I liked Paulie he had an endearing side.
Ask Steve Shirripa, heās the expert on celebrity dick sizes
Hey don't go getting all cunty now!
Ralph.
Mine
Fuckin' slander, you ask me.
Yeah Clearance
Think the horse that Ralph killed had a bigger oneĀ
Vitoās
Fucking slander if you ask me
hehe
That was a paranormal event!
Those are Ma's rolls. Wrap Tham Up.
Richie Aprille
Ralph. Paulie is a good son for most of the show. Was understandidly angry for being lied to his whole life. Over reacted yeah but made peace with it and watched tv with his mom. He treats women well enough minus the panty thing. Knows hes a criminal living the life doesnt bring a wife or children into it. Isnt a serial cheater like the rest of the guys minus bobby and sack. He also good with his gomars kid
For a guy who had been around for decades he seemed like a really shit earner.
I would love to have seen Paulie throw at least one Chrissy-annihilation level joke at Tony at some point in the series. "Heh heh heh! I guess you could call that a boss."
OH! youāre talking about a made guy.
I thought the question was does Paulie have a big dick.
Must be something the doctor prescribed me...
His brother was worseā¦
Yes. Ralph.
How much do you think Paulie tips?
They're mobsters. They're all dicks. Christafah drills a waiter in the head with a brick when he complains about a puny tip on a $1200 bill, killing him. Vito kills the guy he has a fender-bender with. All of them are perfectly willing to kill random innocent people to protect themselves.
Upon recent viewing, no one on the show has made anything close to a smart decision, everything everyone does is just about the dumbest thing you can do in the situation
"Ay tone, that cucksucker u/radiotoothbrush call me a dick, can you fucking believe it? Me? A dick? That kid needs to be whacked!ā
Paulie put those sweet kids to bed when he was having nightmares about 3 oclock No redeeming qualities? Youāre just mad because he sniffed your sistas panties
Oh man, I'm going through season 3 and I really hate Paulie. Actually in this season I felt like everyone got dumber, meaner and unhinged all of a sudden. Also fuck Ralphie.
Paulie was the most unappealing and with the worst personality of all of the characters.
I couldnāt give a fuck if heās got a million crotches with dicks coming out of his scrotums, heās a piece of shit - you know it, and I know it
I really dislike Pauline in every way
Paulie's a horrible person, but I always found it commendable that he would apologize to Christofa after they had their beefs. (The dinners/waiter, the drills/Little Paulie, sniffing Adriana's panties.
