The "joke" about the episode count is not even an exaggeration. There are shows like that.

You want an easy comparison, look at the two versions of House of Cards. UK version, three seasons, four episodes each. US version, 73 episodes and would have gone for more if Spacey hadn't been revealed as a nonce.

The Saga

Fawlty Towers is probably the quintessential example. One of the most famous and well-loved TV series ever made, and it had a grand total of... twelve episodes across two seasons, with a four year gap between them.

And on the other end of the scale for UK shows there's Coronation Street that has run since 1960 and is currently just shy of having aired eleven thousand episodes.

Oh, I'm not saying someone wouldn't fake this. I'm saying I don't know who would fake this, when there's much lower-hanging fruit.

I know AskAubry's usual content, and while I believe a lot of it's real (because... well, men are pretty poo poo) I can also say I'd know exactly how to fake something she'd share with way less effort than this; her content is usually the real bottom-rung men on dating apps, and occasional Reddit relationship posts about entertainingly troubling relationships. Very typical stuff, but you also know there's shitloads of guys like that, so it doesn't read as too generic.

But this? This is WAY too specific for that, and has way too much detail. If you just wanted to fake a lovely guy for a viral tweet, you wouldn't go through this much effort.

Mr Bean gets remembered as being a long enough running show.
The original series had 15 episodes over the course of 5 years. 1 January 1990 to 15 December 1995, and the last ep was a clip show.

This is a very common angle they take when people decline to engage them. Not to mention there's men that used to go to war who get panic attacks when they are humiliated by people who mock them for sending unsolicited dick pics.

Also, you'll note this only works in one direction. Tim Pool NEVER visits leftists in their spaces to debate him, they have to come to him or they are obvious cowards. He invited San Seder on his podcast but demanded he show up in person in the midst of the pandemic. Sam didn't want to get on a plane just to argue with a moron in person but was willing to do it online. No go, Tim will only do these if you show up at his creepy compound in the flesh, not over video. (Then he got super salty when Sam mocked Tim's "music" that he had made).

Similarly, the closest Sam Seder got to debating Steven Crowder was to basically trick him which in response Stephen pretty much just cowered under his desk out of sight to avoid engaging him. So you'll notice the people on the right are never accountable for any of this, no they are far too "busy" to go on other people's podcasts or shows and engage.

I love that they think they’re so smart doing the little “LGB” thing now, dropping the “T” and trying to drive some imaginary wedge that only exists in their moldy cheese brains.



It’s so true, the number of completely anonymous accounts spouting “I’m gay” seems like the same types who used to “as a black woman”; and the “my gay friend” being the new “my black friend”.

I refuse to believe there are any actual Ls, Gs, or Bs in the LGB alliance, and if there are they are quislings and should be treated as such.
