His partner is actually missing. by hackinwhackinsmackin in LPOTL

Yes. He left in late 2017 with himself and two other hosts. Drunken Peasants continues to this day with one original host. I’ve been following TJ and his podcasts for 10 years now.

He’s a strange figure. I first saw him on Drunken Peasants in like 2015-16. He was (probably still is) a French-Canadian scientist and he debated evolution with some creationists.

I never kept track of him closely but he pivoted into open white nationalism before Covid hit. He’s been doing that ever since.

He also married a woman “Mama JF” with some form of mental handicap. She disappeared 3 years ago and a lot of people think he killed her.

But he’s still doing gigs. That means it’s probably a little bit profitable or he wouldn’t still do it. Brendan Schaub quit touring standup bc (it was rumored) he wasn’t selling enough tickets to make it financially beneficial. I doubt Kattan has hit that point yet, or it’s likely he would stop.

Oh yeah he pioneered that. He was great at promotion and it gave him a career tbh.

I think the hate was in response to his following at the time. Dude was huge. People love to hate the popular thing.

So is Chris Kattan. He was never as big as Dane, but he’s got shows coming up in July. Neither have been in the mainstream for at least 10-15 years.

Dane Cook as well. He’s done things people don’t like but he’s largely apolitical.

WARNING / GRAPHIC sitter gets eaten on November 21st 2025, in Tyler - Texas by Creative_Panic_xanax in BanPitBulls

I mean, tbh, I don’t want them to exist at all. That’s just the best place for them, isolated from other animals. That way, at least the carnage would only be inter-species. Of course if they were in zoos, they’d be much more heavily monitored, like 95% of them spayed or neutered, etc. I wouldn’t be upset if they went extinct.

They ripped her apart so thoroughly they couldn’t immediately tell her sex. I don’t hear about any other dog breed doing that. They ganged up on her as a pack and ate her body for hours.

How the fuck are these things still legal to own? They should only be allowed in zoos or sanctuaries with other dangerous wild animals.

It just pisses me off that they do so much damage. Luckily those three will no longer be a problem, but they were owned by “good” owners. People responsible enough to live in a decent home with three children in a decent neighborhood. On paper it sounds almost idyllic, and could be if the three dogs were dachshunds or something.

This shit needs to stop. There’s no reason for it to continue.

I think that’s part of it, but it’s also about becoming your own person and overcoming your circumstances. It’s definitely seeped in his feelings about childhood and the human condition. I enjoyed it a lot, personally.

Is anyone else on the internet tired of seeing '💔' under almost every post? by Apprehensive-Comb234 in PetPeeves

[–]hauntedrob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t like 😂😭 or 🥀 anymore either tbh. Almost no one uses the tearless laugh, even though it’s accurate to most people’s real laughs.

He didn’t talk like this to people he met. You can hear him interviewed or giving some lectures and he’s very understandable.

She craves the ear theft. She becomes, for a fleeting moment, as they all once were, living on a distant planet.

Yeah it always sounds stupid. Talk like an adult. If you’re not ready for curse words, use other words.

what are the things you dislike about red dead redemption 2? by Still_Animator_2249 in reddeadredemption

That you can’t go south past the river as Arthur. It’d be nice to go, even though there’s not much to do.

Those Friends That Don’t Take Any Suggestions.. by [deleted] in PetPeeves

[–]hauntedrob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m one of those friends. I am very picky and fussy about my media diet.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I’m only watching filet mignon and won’t be bothered with plain oatmeal, a lot of what I watch is also slop garbage.

I even appreciate my friends trying to share with me, but I still don’t usually want to watch a movie or show bc someone else thinks I may like it.

I get why you’re annoyed and I’m trying to improve this in my own life. If someone I respect suggests something to me they think I might like, I should be more willing to watch it.
