I'm sure I remember in that Generation X book one of the charcters goes to work in Japan and the boss is very proud of his paparazzi picture of Marilyn Monroe getting out of a car with no knickers on. I don't know what my point is but it just popped in to my head.

Eh, the way he does it, especially when he talks about her in the third person ("look at how she's eating it") gives off human zoo vibes.

And one of the replies to that tweet is another of his videos titled "how my Asian wife makes avocado". It's a lil sus.

There's a whole genre of tiktok culture clash stuff. Like a lady trolling her Italian husband by making pasta wrong, or a guy trying to get his Boston girlfriend to say words like 'khakis' and ' car keys' in the same sentence. So he's more likely to be just be chasing views by copying that rather than fetishizing his wife.

idk, I'm not gonna go through and watch a bunch of tiktoks to see if he starts talking about his servile bride from the far east and her tiny feet or some poo poo.

No, it’s Britney Spears. It’s an infamous paparazzi photograph of her with her legs slightly spread to get out of a car, at just the right angle to show she wasn’t wearing underwear.

The Third Eye Blind guy was talking about their tour bus catching on fire in front of a GIANT framed print of it on the wall. Like why would you frame that, c’mon.
Wasn't she in the car with Paris? I think she's in the background of the picture. I want to say Lindsay Lohan was also involved, although I might just be conflating my mid-late 00's cultural punching bags there.

The Bush years were very cool and normal about young women.

What gets me most about these people is they'll never loving shut up and let someone have their say, the guest/interviewee has to butt in to get a word in and then they just :words: louder over the top of anyway.

I've only seen a few clips but from what I heard Emma got Tim incredibly worked up and mad on his own goddamn show and accused her of farming for clicks (you know, like the "Ben Shapiro DESTROYS commie leftist with this quip") and claimed she's only parroting everything Sam Seder told her to say. He's also hyper defensive about the idea that his show is radicalizing people towards fascist violence and claims the whole thing is a "psy Op" to make him look bad.

Emma best described Tim Pool's podcast compound as "what a twelve year old boy would design for a bespoke mansion". Matt Binder, when invited on to the show said Tim invited him to hold the pistol but Matt declined because he said the thing looked so janky and fragile he didn't want to accidentally break it. This of course got spun into "Liberals are so terrified of guns they won't even touch an unloaded pistol" of course.

I was also surprised at how grating Tim's speaking voice is. It somehow manages to make what he tweets sounds even dumber.

In the case of Tim Pool (and Rogan) they always invite people to come to them but never go to other people's podcasts/shows. They'll also tend to gang up on guests so you're not arguing with one dipshit but main dipshit plus two flunkies. For instance Tim invited Sam Seder on but Sam didn't want to fly in the middle of the pandemic, then when Sam made fun of Tim's music he got super butt hurt and offended and refused to invite him at that point (even though Sam felt safe enough to travel at this point to engage him).

I am shocked, SHOCKED that this man is single.

Well that was also fun because Ben only had 2 scripts based on American interviews, so he got shortcircuited by a torrie ghoul willing to push back on culture war poo poo or ask questions beyond "how does it feel being smart and right?" and so flipped to his 'heh typical liberal' shtick with an arch conservative.

My favorite bit is when Ben says "I've never heard of you" and Andrew answers "Well I'd never heard of you until this interview" and you can see the psychic shock on Ben's face.

Also the bit where Ben stomps off in a tantrum is very funny.

Chuds have this assumption that leftists are bound by some byzantine kind of "vampire rules" in discussions. They see people express empathy and think they can trick the leftist into empathizing with some horrible strawman they put up and when the leftist doesn't take the bait they kind of crack ping in the conversation.

Tim Pool did it with Emma Vigeland in the debate they had today-Tim accused her of being intolerant and dumb "and that's why nobody invites you anywhere". He expected her to dispute this, to come up with counter examples to disprove him. Instead she just shrugs and says "I don't care." which drives Tim nuts.

Why would he do that when he could just get huffy and defensive and talk really fast making you think hit video is sped up but it's just him getting really insulted people would question his prowess?

He might also be savvy enough to be aware of the Birth Certificate effect-your critic demands you provide proof of something mundane but the second you provide the evidence to shut them up it just results in you sinking to their level and playing into their narrative. Look what happened with Elizabeth Warren's DNA test for example.

Sure he could be good, but if he gets nervous and biffs a simple trick it will be far more humiliating for him than just getting verbally defensive about it and acting like hes got nothing to prove.
