Cumshitter's gimmick could be very funny sometimes, unlike nearly every other posting gimmick, but then he started going all in on the politics posting and it just got sad.

he had one joke which was saying that he was disappointed in his son for not being gay, and he did not stop pushing it even after the novelty had long ago worn off. not even variations on the theme, it was just the same post over and over

There's some suggestion that he was the person interviewed by the lady who came up with that term but it could very likely be hearsay, I recall people in Cspam disputing it. He did later marry into money and had a whole room just for playing vr games

fosborb posted:taintrunner ended up being the inspiration for the article that coined Bernie Bros, right? yeah it turned out he was. he stayed in Jude Doyle's apartment for a while and was the roommate from hell, and it informed the whole stereotype lol he was Jeevesmeister on twitter and was if anything even less likeable than on the forums although he wiped his entire presence there except for a defence of how he's totally not a rapist after all that came out e: oh wait no it was that someone else grabbed the account name and reposted his blogpost about it. but yeah, that's the guy John Charity Spring fucked around with this message at 15:30 on Apr 22, 2023 |

My fav bit of forums lore is that Taintrunner ended up being patient zero for the "Bernie Bro" stereotype and was the person Jude Doyle wrote the article about way back when.

For the longest time I confused him with Taint Reaper, who was also banned for something unseemly.

The 'Bernie Bro' stereotype literally was just a rehash of the failed 'Obama Boys' astroturf by the same people eight years before. That they had an occasional example of someone who sort of fit the stereotype in media circles was probably a slight influence at best, but it was already a product ordered and produced to spec.

Yeah I know but him being the literal person Jude was bitching about in their article that got used as the poster child is really funny.

It reminds me that in the steam game threads there used to be a guy whose curated list was all just horny anime games and everyone thought he was just doing a gimmick until an inciting event (a called off engagement?) led everyone to realise he was really into all of that
