Chef Boyardeez Nuts posted:(friendly chuckle) hahaha for me this was the other way around -- at first he was coming across as a little eccentric and spiritual and I was like yeah, he's weird but maybe not a bad match for this lady who's also kind of an eccentric spiritual weirdo, but then Nathan goes with him in the car and jeeeez... This is something out of the DSM, right? That sort of obsession with seeing the numbers all around him and assigning some special meaning to them? And the way he shut down completely when his roommate, very reasonably, is like "It's just two numbers, I don't see why that's really significant, don't you think you ought to focus more on this person that you might want to be with?"

There's 12 pages in the thread so far. The show premiered on the 15th. Luke 12:15 says life does not consist in an abundance of possessions. Let me grab my lotions and bong real quick

I had a roommate once who was exactly like that guy if you replaced biblical numerology with shirtless capoeira. Just putting the absolute minimum amount of effort into every aspect of his charmed scumbag life.

I’ve never met a non psycho numerology person. I’m pretty open to out there poo poo, but numerology people have always been the most insane people in the world.

to be clear, with me it's not just numbers. it's much weirder stuff. like how there's a dude who works at the weed dispensary who one day was dressed exactly like a dead friend of mine, and also looked exactly like him as far as the exact facial hair etc, and i have literally never seen anyone dressed exactly like that except my dead friend and this guy, so my brain is like "SOMEHOW THIS MEANS SOMETHING"

Nathan Fielder has a genuine gift for sniffing out the weirdest people on the planet lol. genuinely thought the Christian numerologist was gonna be a plant, and the "night owl" who falls asleep within 15 minutes of his shift and then casually starts talking about sasquatch liaisons is just a cherry on top. Kinda surprised this was only 30 minutes but it sounds like this rehearsal might be the through-line for the season? Also lol at his dragging along his reproduction bar to hang out in. I hope by the end he's just transporting a small town with him between episodes. Whoever is in charge of this show's budget must be crying themselves to sleep in the fetal position every night.

Help Im Alive posted:I would like to hear more about the government's sasquatch liaisons It's probably a lot more wild than you'd think. If I'm guessing my theory right he's into the Missing 411 stuff, which is the theory that organized sasquatch clans are being allowed to abduct people from national parks with the government's assistance  . Again, Nathan's pretty great at just letting people talk and getting crazy material out of them.
