Imagine being mad at the dude rather than his girlfriend ditching him like that.
I’d be quite miffed at both but way too British to make a scene or likely even say anything.
I’ve had this happen to me as the guy supposedly stealing the girlfriend.
Except that until her boyfriend came looking for a fight, I had no idea she was with someone else and she made no indication as such.
And this was after going on several dates with her.
Suffice to say, I haven’t spoken to her since. I’m not a cheater and I don’t want to facilitate cheating.
And when I notified him of the fact I had no clue they were together, he was level headed enough to not be pissed at me anymore for what happened.
Him, I have actually seen and spoken to since then.
I suspect it was a chance of liberation for the girl that she needed to act on. Kudos, it appears to have worked for her and I hope she’s doing better now.
His latest video begins : “I am just outside your girlfriend’s apartment …;”
“To you or I it looks just like a regular girlfriends house. But there’s a secret.
Hidden behind this door your girlfriend has built a complete tank plane submarine rotating house simulator.
Why? -scoffs- why not? It’s just cool. And when I heard about it, I had to come and see it for myself.”
Why is he angry at him? She kissed him back rather than saying she has a boyfriend.
Yeah, I always think it’s odd when people blame the 3rd party in these situations. It makes me think this dude looked at his girlfriend like he looks at property and its the same as getting his car stolen. She made a choice.
To be fair, the question wasn’t about the girlfriend. They could hate both of them.
Because the guy is actually a POS as he considered her “his” as though she is property, so Tom “stole” her.
Only an emotionally mature person realizes it takes 2 to cheat.
Will never not be amazed at the life of anon away from the keyboard
Is this his real response?
4chan is a place where anonymous people can post whatever they want with no account.
As they say on their own website - “only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.”
…I am beginning to realize that 2007 was 16 years ago. There’s a whole generation of people who were born after 4chan had its heyday. People who don’t even know what 4chan is.
So, uh, no. That’s not him. 4chan just does that stuff.
Hi, actual Tom Scott here
I can confirm that this 4chan post was indeed made by me and that the story of me making out with this guys girlfriend is also true. Chick had jugs like you wouldn’t believe it. Bitch as loser just sat there and cried. Anyway, I’m off to Poland to film a video about a really interesting public toilet they have there.
Tom Scott out.
PS: Matt Gray is also here with me.
Hi it’s me, Matt Grey. I also do youtube, sometimes.
Next video, he’s standing in a volcanic wasteland or something
“I’m here at what is widely considered to be the harshest, most inhospitable, shit hole of the planet. This volcano is irrelevant because I’m talking about…”
He pulls up a laptop and points it at the screen
“…4chan”
There is no way in hell he would ever post to 4chan.
He made a long weepy post on his site how he would never use Reddit of all places, and how embarrassed he would be if “real world people” ever thought he was on it. He is exactly as insufferable and self righteous as you can imagine.
The Tim Traveler is pretty good, I enjoy his videos more that Tom Scott’s.
It’s probably his response copied from someplace else. Notice the holidays bit that doesnt fit the context.
I don’t think it was Tom. That sentence starting with “While” is not a complete sentence, which is suspicious because Tom is very precise with his language and is a nerd about grammar (he has made videos about linguistics). There are also a few other questionable grammar choices like the comma after “though” (I think there should either be no comma, or a comma both before and after?) Also, the comma after “thanks and regards” either needs to be followed by an “and” or it should have been replaced by a period or exclamation point.
