• No, but I have the time to listen to you whine about nothing and everything all at once, granted, of course, that you’re one of those melodramatic fools, neurotic to the bone. No doubt about it.

      Yeah, I mean, sometimes I give myself the creeps. So this podcast may do something different. Or my mind may creep up on me.

  • Ok wow, the Daniel Day Lewis Gangs of New York poster is a whole new level of cringe whoosh, in the same vein as the punisher worship.

      Among serious gun nuts, the Punisher thing is scoffed at. It’s a sign the person displaying that bullshit is borderline childish.

      • Indeed. There’s a big fucking difference between “firearms as an interest/hobby” and “firearms as an identity.”

        As someone who claims the former, but not the latter, people of the latter usually piss me off.

          If someone brought a friend to our camp to shoot and they came with Punisher shit on their guns or gear, or god-for-fucking bid, Spartan shit, I wouldn’t take my eyes off them for a second. Something about it screams, “My gun is an accessory, not a weapon.”

          • lol yes

            That and the idiots that slap those gun decals with something like ‘we believe in the 2A’ or some dumb shit on their trucks. Which is basically just slapping a ‘free guns—break glass’ sticker on their vehicle.

      You know there’s a framed Tyler Durden quote hung up in there somewhere, too

    • I understand what you mean about lionizing anti-heroes. I just think that analysis is more sophisticated than the thing it’s analyzing. These displays are veiled threats of violence. Nothing more. Pretty funny too, seeing a tough guy try to scare you by flashing the symbol of his favorite comic book character.

      • Pretty funny too, seeing a tough guy try to scare you by flashing the symbol of his favorite comic book character.

        100% it’s only his favorite comic character but has never touched a comic, and maybe only watched clips from the shows. His only exposure is seeing gross misinterpretations by dickless right-wing chuds

  • If he was Canadian, he would be an Albertan seppo. Children (toddlers at best)…all of them.

    • You don’t have to tell me, I live there. They got their ass kicked in the referendum and I’ve been bathing in seppie tears like Elizabeth Báthory, the blood countess of Hungary

  • If given as only two options, I would chose to spend these 43 minutes on listening about my mother’s in law holidays

    This really doesn’t work very well to the tune of Basket Case

    • “moving away from completely revolving around me as a demographic” is a bit tough, but you can sorta make everything before that work.

  • The hat indoors and shitty beards are basically part of their cultural identity at this point

  • That picture on the wall is giving Raphael Ambrosius Costeau.

  • It just goes to show what depths of psychological damage and depravity are caused by having the whole world revolve around you. I feel sorry for the MAGAts in a way because there really is no coming back from that. The problem they represent will not be solved, it will be only be outlived once all these spoiled pieces of shit die off. And it goes without saying that the world is never going to revert to revolving around them.

  • Is that a black velvet painting of an octogenarian toddler behind him? That’s so fucking terrible I’m mildly surprised it exists.

    A lot of the guys I see on YouTube that look like this are actually sensible. Then I got a look at the background.

    “ChatGPT, make a pic of a stereotypical young white conservative male with all the trappings in the background.”
