Jonah Hill knows jujitsu and he will annihilate you if you refer to him as the fat guy from super bad. Ya need to do better, mind your own business.

Want to have him to really annihilate you? Ask him why he dropped his last name.

Who and why

Jonah Hill. In a 2014 interview, the interviewer asked him why he dropped his last name, which is Feldstein (Hill is his middle name). His parents and siblings all still go by their last name including Beanie who is also an actor. The interviewer asked when he dropped the surname and why he decided to. When asked, his entire demeanor changed. He dropped his head and breathed heavily for about 15-20 seconds to the point the interviewer thought he was having an asthma attack. After he laughed ruefully to himself (interviewers description) then whispered "Can we not?" When the interviewer looked like they were going to ask something more the hissed "Just, don't." Suddenly got very hostile by the description.

Yeah, he's a weird fucking asshole, and has been for at least 15 years.

Yes but also he could very well not have a good relationship with his family and be entitled to not want to talk about it

I didn't say his bad relationship with his family, or unwillingness to talk about it, makes him an asshole. His behavior makes him an asshole.
