Nathan Rabin of The A.V. Club viewed Farewell Fondle 'Em as an "homage to Bobbito's low-budget, overachieving indie".[4] Matt Cibula of PopMatters wrote, "The music on Farewell Fondle 'Em was never going to set the commercial world on fire -- it's too weird, too edgy, too much fun to listen to."[1]

In 2015, Fact placed the album at number 66 on its "100 Best Indie Hip-Hop Records of All Time" list.[5]

There have been no advertising agreements whatsoever with any companies producing pizza or otherwise to have me subliminally advertise pizza, as my profile picture is not a pizza. Since it is not a pizza, this is obviously not pizza advertisement whatsoever. No monetary exchanges or otherwise have occurred with companies engaged in pizza production for any reason relating to my profile picture. It's not pizza. There were no deals, under-the-table or otherwise, with pizza companies. No pizza companies pay for any kind of advertising involving me. I'm DEFINITELY not paid by pizza companies to do ANY pizza advertising or sales.
