ARREST WARRANT out for Dave Foley in CANADA!

I'm shocked he has kids.

He's got five jobs in post.

crissy guerrero is fug.

Tabatha Southey is fug too. And then there's fug what'shername, wife of Affleck. All fug women.

Child Support Enforcement Worker here:%0D he can go to court and get his CS order modified to reflect his current earnings.

Wait a minute, Dave Foley is straight? WTF?

Sn's not "fug," she's average. And as much as I like Dave Foley, he's no supermodel himself.

I guess it's illegal to impersonate a lesbian in Canada.

Is that true in Canada?

R5..sounded like the courts up there were even more strict.

R8, that's what I was going to write.

He looks like an old lesbian.

I'm amazed that there's only one gay "Kids in the Hall" member.

Post using the term "cuntfrau" in 5, 4, 3, 2, ...

He doesn't make much money, 5000 per. Some judge who thinks he's funny says, you pay six to her.

He says, now, judge, suppose I fail? The judge says, Bud, right into jail. You better keep her. You'll find it's cheaper than making whoopee.

In junior high I was definitely under the impression that the Kids in the Hall were the product of some kind of Canadian gay theater commission

I like Dave Foley, I hope he have the judgement ignored here in the US. Extradition from the US to Canada is not easily accomplished. I knew he was straight to years. He seldom made the point, but when pushed would admit to being straight. Very cool guy in estimation.

R9, yes that's true for Canada as well.%0D %0D The CS order is based on the payer's income.%0D %0D %0D He will still have to pay the piper for not paying in the past, but he can get the current monthly obligation reduced.

I can't believe anyone had sex with him...twice.

He's not bad - at least when he was young he was adorable, and funny people make the best lovers.

Most dads have not problem giving their kids money, they just don't want their ex-wives to have a penny of it.

I heard that interview on Marc Maron. Very sad guy, I was surprised he was straight too. More like, alcoholic father, crazy wife...and later, in love with Maura Tierney during "News Radio". The guy is going on a stand-up comedy tour...and he seems halfway ready to end it all.

[quote] Child Support Enforcement Worker here: he can go to court and get his CS order modified to reflect his current earnings.%0D %0D Not necessarily. I know a guy who literally works day and night because he couldn't get his support payments reduced. He sometimes leaves his 12 hour night shift job at 8 am and arrives at his second job at 9 am and pulls an eight hour shift catches a few hours sleep and returns to the 8p-8a job.%0D %0D The reason? He made a lot more money in the past, before the tech recession hit. He now works as a nurse's aide because it's the only work he can get. In my area, men were known to to deliberately quit their jobs and get lower paying jobs just to stiff their child support payments (they would then work off the books at a second job and keep the cash).%0D %0D The guy went to court and showed the judge he wasn't making anything near what he used to make and the judge, despite being offered proof of wages, would not reduce the support payments.%0D %0D His ex-wife runs to court anytime he is late in making the full payment. Why? Because he cheated on her during the marriage and this is her way of getting back at him. She knows he can't afford the payments. She also makes it difficult for him to have weekend custody of the kid. He can't afford rent. He moved into his mother's two bedroom apartment and when the daughter visited, she slept on a pull out sofa. The ex-wife said "oh no you don't," and got the court to order that the daughter needs to sleep in a bed in a bedroom, or she cannot stay over.%0D %0D The whole situation is bizarre on so many levels. He was a total asshole for cheating on his wife (and then telling her about it after the affair was over, because he "felt he needed to be honest with her"), but it was a one-time thing. Now he is paying for it with years and years of financial harrassment and court costs. So both he and his ex-wife are assholes.

Thought Foley was a decent guy; it's not right that he doesn't support the children from the first marriage. Couldn't care less about the ex-wife and think spousal support in most situations is ridiculous, but not taking care of your children is just plain wrong.

In honor of Valentine's Day and The Kids in the Hall!!

Why does she need spousal support? She is a columnist and an author of kids books. Go get a job at Tim Hortons to supplement and move to Barrie. No one says she has to live in Toronto.

Unfortunately most family court judges in Ontario are appointed political cronies and are grossly unqualified for the job. Many of them don't even have law degrees!

LOL @23. I thought Lady Gaga seemed kind of familiar when I first saw her!

30 Helens Agree: Dave Foley is a dead beat.

No one updated his Wikipedia. He truly is a has-been!

R23 thank you for posting Tammy! I loved those sketches.

OP, where's the link???!

There's no mention of this on Google News. I think you made it up.

Is Kevin McDonald gay? I always thought he and Dave Foley were the cutest.

Recent pictures- OMG.

He hasn't paid child support? %0D %0D Asshole

[quote]"I'm happy to give away half my money, that would be great," said Foley.

Then why doesn't he? Why not send cheques for what he can afford? Surely he must feel that he owes something to the care and feeding of his spawn.

R30, here's the link. I find this interesting, btw.

"However, according to the interview with Maron, their relationship was mostly non-physical for the 11 years it lasted, notwithstanding the birth of their two children."

R25 that is just not true. All judges appointed to the Superior Court of Ontario Family Division are lawyers. One can opt to go through mediation where a mediator may or may not be a lawyer. A judge still sanctions the mediated settlement. You are correct that a lot of the lawyers appointed are political cronies but they must be lawyers to sit on the bench as judges. Only justices of the peace can be lay people.

dead beat dad

[quote]it's not right that he doesn't support the children from the first marriage.

Geez, you're thick. Same with R32 & R33.

It's pretty clear that his ex-wife and the courts have put him in a completely impossible situation. If they were making reasonable demands, then yes, he should and would pay. The family court system (in both countries), is so blatantly anti-male, it's embarrassing & truly criminal.

There's no mention of an arrest warrant, r34.

THREAD CLOSED!

It's the court system. It's not like he gets a fucking choice. He is breaking the law, period. If he didn't want to support his children, he should never have married and fathered those kids. If he thinks it's a completely impossible situation, he can take it to court and do things the legal way. In the meantime, he should obey the law and pay the fuck up and not abandon his children. As for being blatantly anti-male, that's bullshit. You just can't bring children into the world and then not support them and a lot of men think that they can walk away and be free.

What arrest warrant?

THREAD RE-OPENED UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT

What does "supporting his children" mean to you? How can he pay up when they're asking for 4 times the amount of money than he actually makes? If the court won't allow him to adjust the payments to his current income, then screw them and his greedy ex-wife. I doubt the kids are lacking for anything other than a sane mother.

He sounds like a total jerk to me and I used to be a fan. Pay for your fucking kids.

Don't have kids if you don't want to be financially responsible for them.

R42 and R43 have serious reading comprehension problems. Fucking black and white morons, both of you.

Hey, let's give the guy a break. Dave is doing the best he can while in a very trying situation. Believe me it hasn't been easy for him these past few years, he's been severely close to calling it quits for a while now and he cares about his kids. His ex is just a cuntfrau. A very crazy, greedy cuntfrau. So let's stop railing against him, he does that enough as it is. If Dave Foley was any more self-effacing he would cease to exist. He's given the world a lot with his comedy and the man needs kind words and people in his corner right now, so let's support him. Like whenever you see him give him a couple dollars or whatever loose change you have with you, it'll help him, remember he also has that coffee addiction to keep up with now.

Ohmigod I went to school with Crissy Guerrero and did a show or two with her. NOT a good actress.

It is stories like this and women like her, that make straight guys want to be gay.

"How can he pay up when they're asking for 4 times the amount of money than he actually makes?"%0D %0D He could dip into his capital (I presume he has some), and pay child support based on his total financial worth, rather than his current salary. %0D %0D So either he never saved anything, or he doesn't think his kids are worth it.

Did he wind up getting arrested?

r44, why make race an issue? ...asshole

My understanding is his owes arrears, probably with interest and penalties, because when he WAS earning he didn't pay. He clearly failed to save anything, and now he's not earning much can't afford to pay what he owes from before. And ain't no way no Judge is gonna let that slide.

I wonder what he got paid for his little stint on Desperate Housecunts as Teri's high school crush/stalker? And what he had to do for Marc Cherry to get it?

why can't his cunt wife get a job

Who the fuck is Dave Foley?

Is r50 for real?!

And do you really think Foley is toyboy material nowadays, r51? With all the manmeat on that show you think MC would go after Foley for favours?

I heard all but one of the Kids was gay. The dark-haired one being the only straightie.

Foley made a more believable woman than he does a man.

I agree, r55. He was indistinguishable from a female in his old street hooker skits on "Kids". In fact, he claimed once that potential johns would try to pick him up while they were filming on the street.

"He was indistinguishable from a female in his old street hooker skits on "Kids". In fact, he claimed once that potential johns would try to pick him up while they were filming on the street"%0D %0D ...Maybe this is a way he can earn extra money...?

[quote]What does "supporting his children" mean to you? How can he pay up when they're asking for 4 times the amount of money than he actually makes? If the court won't allow him to adjust the payments to his current income, then screw them and his greedy ex-wife.%0D %0D The way the courts see it, he has to maintain his family in the style they were accustomed to. You have to see the financial picture of child support as if they were never divorced in the first place. What would he have done if he weren't divorced and his income was reduced? Within the confines of a happy marriage, he would have dipped into savings or gotten a better steadier job to keep paying the mortgage, boat, summer house etc. If that wasn't panning out, he'd start to sell assets, BEFORE requesting some sort of sacrifice from the family members. %0D %0D But the last thing he would have done would be to stop providing for his children. The last resort would have been to switch the kids to public school and tell them we need to tighten our belts. I think the courts see it the same way. Your very last sacrifice is your children.%0D %0D For whatever reason, they don't see Foley as someone who's giving up all other alternatives before claiming he needs to cut down on child support. Not while he's marrying other women and supporting them as well, at least. And THAT IS -- a deadbeat dad. %0D %0D When family providers break free of a marriage, they need to give up everything before they make the children suffer. A doctor can't just walk away in a divorce and say "I hated beiing a doctor, now I'm free to be the artist I always wanted to be." The same thing with a successful Hollywood actor - there are bills still to pay and you go and sell out if you need to.

If when you were married you spent 80% of your income on your household and family, don't think you can walk away and start spending only 50%, so that you can use the other 50% to live happily ever after. You either increase your income (what happens - if gradually - in most typical cases), or live happily ever after on that 20%. %0D %0D Yes, only rich household providers (i.e., those that only need 30% or less of their incomes to keep their home happy) can get divorced and not feel the effects.

"The family court system (in both countries), is so blatantly anti-male, it's embarrassing & truly criminal."%0D %0D Oh, cry me a fucking river for the men who want to litter the world but don't want to contribute a dime to cleaning it up!%0D %0D They have these things called condoms, you know.

This is why straight people get married so rarely these days. Only the gays are enthusiastic about marriage. For some reason...

Dave has just landed a new series on CBS called 'How to Be a Gentleman'

Totally on Foley's side on this one. %0D %0D

R53 lives under a fucking rock.%0D

Well at least he can get arrested somewhere.

It is time Canada looks at child support to be reasonable . Too many dads are being abused by the courts & women seeking BIG MONEY. . The only looser here is the children , missing out on a parent because of BIG MONEY demands by greedy courts & what women think is there entitlement. This needs measured on a fairer scale.

Here's the truth about poor Dave and his witch of a wife.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaC-2lj6HNg

That video was an eye opener. I never knew any of that. Thanks for posting.

Dave Foley has aged horribly. Admittedly he's not a 20-something anymore, but still, he looks like hell.

According to IMDB, he's been working again. Hopefully he's used some of that income to pay his back child support and get current and stay that way.

It takes some guys a while to realize that child support awards are not payable when they're in the mood. Child support isn't based on the personality of the ex-wife or whether it's convenient for him to visit his children.

To those who said the ex should get a job and support her own children: She was the sole support of her children while this guy was being a deadbeat.

A friend worked for a state support enforcement division and it was her job to track down deadbeats. She was overjoyed when she was able to confiscate the IRS refunds to a deadbeat and his current wife. They had enough money to live on a big boat and travel up and down the Pacific coast to avoid paying support.

It's cheaper to keep her.

His fucking ex-wife should get a fucking job. What's HER contribution to her children's welfare? What a cunt.

R70, after watching that podcast, it sounds like Foley would happily, and does, pay child support. The problem is that the Canadian courts expect him to pay the same amount he could afford when he was on NewsRadio (500k a year) and he simply can't pay that anymore. So he's now, essentially, a fugitive for not being a millionaire anymore. Ridiculous.

R73 - he never went back to court with documents showing his decreased income.

Did he think the court would just take his word?

One of his kids went to a boarding school in.canada that costs $50k a year (ab an hour from toronto where the mom lives).

Clearly they are doing just fine. Her columns in the Globe and Mail are awful. I dont know why they keep her on.

He's on Hot in Cleveland quite frequently. Definitely working.

NEEEEEVVVVEEERRRR get fucking married!

So is he actually paying his kids anything?

The "I would pay half..." sounds like no.

Weird

Southey is a cunt; she's known as a cunt in Toronto. He was an idiot to have married her in the first place.

Wow, that video at R67. No wonder everyone thinks Southey's a cunt. Everything Foley said about borderline personality disorder and the relationship with Southey, can totally relate to the guy. Very sad.

Jesus Christ, that video is incredible. Psycho ex-wife.

R81 ,can you elaborate at all on Southey as to why she is disliked so much? Just curious what others in media industry think of her?

Thanks for posting that video R67.

I saw Dave Foley do a show tonight with a couple of guys from Kids in the Hall. I never saw the show and wasn't familiar with Dave Foley. I googled him after the show and came across the stories about his divorce. After watching the video at R67 I feel for the guy. My mother was a borderline and practically murdered my father during the divorce. She did everything she could to financially bleed him dry. I believe Dave's story about his wife. He's probably not a saint, but she sounds like a piece of work.

Tonight he said he's lost 30 lbs and that he's been sober for a year. He looks a lot better than he used to, from what I saw online. Glad to know he didn't do himself in due to the divorce. The show was great, too.

Where I live, child support is allocated according to a set formula. The incomes of both parties are taken into account, along with the number of children and any special needs they may have, that sort of thing. Nobody cares who was screwing around on the side, or which party comes across nicer, the formula doesn't care about personalities.

Bet he wishes he had let her off herself when she had promised to, oh, those hundred or so times.

Yeesh; I used to think being alone was the worst thing.

The last thing I'd want is to hook up with someone; have a kid with them and then have him take all my money.

Dr. Ken better go for 28 seasons.

Underrated Canadian hottie.

I thought all of TKTH were fagellas.

That like being shocked to find out that Wesley Snipes is not Black but French.

I think it's time for a Kids in the Hall tour.

If you can't afford them, don't have them. Sorry to whoever this guy is, but there are a number of dads that won't give anything to the mothers, but are then appalled when the courts finally get around to slapping them with a Child Support Order. The mothers have to deal with the child's care 24/7, god forbid that the father, who's living with absolute freedom is forced to take care of his own children.

Next time, ask for joint custody, stay married, or accept the fact that you'll be underpaying for the hours of work your former spouse is taking on to raise YOUR children. He can get the rate lowered, no need to air out the dirty laundry in public.

Why the fuck would you bump a thread about Dave Foley, of all people, that was started almost 9 years ago and last posted on 4 years ago?

Same thing got Brenden Fraser.

At some point it's just not fair.

No, r95 taking care of the children alone isn't fair. Always fighting for joint custody. 1. It saves you from child support. 2. Forces you to spend more time with your children. The kids need to eat and live. If married it's not likely that the husband would spend any less on his children. They are entitled to those funds. If you don't have the dough, go to the courts and get the obligation reduced.

R96 yes support is fine.

At some point, let me find ex wife's lavish lifestyle is not fine. See the difference? Same for ass woman working to support her non working, scumbag dh, like Kevin Federline or any other golddigger.

See the difference? They use the children!

I ff'd r13 for being retarded.

I get you r97. But Kevin F gets a fat check because Britney has the money and her kids shouldn't live like Section 8 recipients just because their mother is too kooky to care for them. She makes over 20 million a year, even locked up in an insane asylum, that child support is nothing in the grand scheme of things. He is raising her children, she is off to her slave labor contract jobs. Their mother is Britney Spears, thus the children should live somewhat an appropriate lifestyle as children of a millionaire celeb. If she took care of them, she wouldn't have to pay Kevin anything. But he takes care of her most valuable possessions, thus he is paid a king's ransom.

Dave Foley was so cute on News Radio. The ultimate straight man.

Dave is serving some Catherine Deneuve realness right here.
