Careercow Wil Wheaton + Felicia Day - The "Man" who soy'd the World and the Fakest of Geek Girls, SJW sexual harassment fence-sitters

[IAmNotAlpharius]

I've said it before, it would have been better to have newly minted Ensign Wesley Crusher, supergenius and top of his class at the academy, put the young kid on the show and let him get knocked down and have to face the reality that what he learned in the books is not how it really is in deep space. He can be arrogant, abrasive, condescending, and just a snot who doesn't really listen to anyone because, of course, he knows what's best and have him take his lumps until he learns that no, he really doesn't. Basically Chekov with a chip on his shoulder because he's bought into the propaganda that he's this wunderkind everyone has been touting him as since day one.

He’s the type to crack in high level courses because of his pride and becoming the average guy in the room.

I've been re-binging Criminal Minds Original Recipe lately, and I just now hit upon the episode in which Little Willy played a serial killer. Rather than subject myself to flashes of his smug, puffy mug for thirty-eight minutes while he pretends to act like a tough guy, I fast-forwarded all the way to the end where he tries to flee the G-men, runs out into a dark road, and is flattened by a big rig. It was brief but satisfying, like a fun size candy bar.

Wil Wheaton cries over Larry David choking a Muppet

This little bitch needs to curb his faggotry. He's literally over 50.

Basically Chekov with a chip on his shoulder because he's bought into the propaganda that he's this wunderkind everyone has been touting him as since day one.

That wouldn't do because he was the favorite of one Eugene WESLEY Roddenberry.

I was browsing around Wil’s blog bc I was curious if he had ever mentioned his issues with his parents before.

I found an early post from July 21st 2001 when his father was extremely ill. And… it’s a really nice post about the fear one has about one day losing a parent. Wil tells a story about his father losing his father and how Wil felt such sadness for his dad. And this illness brought up Wil’s fears of one day losing his father.

(I’m not home and on mobile, sorry cannot archive at the moment)

These quotes stuck out to me -
“**Pay attention, young ‘uns: your parents are not as bad as you think, and someday they’ll be gone, and you’ll regret every single moment you wasted being mad at them because they wouldn’t let you go to your fuck-up friend’s house because they knew you’d get drunk there.**”

And

“But it’s the not knowing that is the worst.
That and replaying in my head every wasted moment with my dad. Every time I wouldn’t play catch with him, or go surfing, or acted embarrassed when he told a lame joke around some girl I was trying to impress.
Go call your mom. She’s worrying about you.
And for god’s sakes. Play catch with your dad.”

I mean…yeah. You’ll find many such anecdotes on his blog, in his books, and various other outlets from years past. His claims of abuse are relatively recent. That’s why we shouldn’t believe them.

I just found it odd he seemed this self aware 20+ years ago but as a man in his 50’s… he comes across as a self centered teenager.

Usually people are the opposite.

 

[Travoltron]

That reminds me, in old interviews Wil was trying to get the writers to make a '60s surf holodeck adventure for Wesley. Obviously, that never happened. The writers not using his awful idea is probably "abuse" to him.
Victimhood is social status these days in Wil's Leftist circles, so I'm not too surprised he's regressed. The woke mind virus does that to people.

People forget all these wild bullshit tales from Wil about his dad only started after his turn into SJW shit. He had nothing but good to say about him before that. He's the perfect example of a cultist who suddenly reframes past events as huge traumas to justify disconnecting from family.

 

[Dambusters' Dog II]

Wil was trying to get the writers to make a '60s surf holodeck adventure for Wesley.

If he had succeeded, it would have undoubtedly been considered the worst episode, so the writers were protecting him from himself there.

His first 2 memoirs failed, he was getting blasted for being a transphobe/homophobe, he was butthurt about the crying Wesley minifig, he fucked up the tabletop series, and he realized everyone else in Stand By Me was more interesting than him, even the corpse of River Phoenix. Then he started working on yet another memoir (!) and needed spicier content. That's when all the "muh abusive parents!" bullshit started.

That's the funny part. He believes it so completely that it's become his entire persona. He rewrote his childhood and became the crying Wesley minifig that offended him so much.

 

[FedPostalService]

I always put that down to therapy. He’s a therapytard isn’t he? Talk therapy can really fuck someone up if their therapist is a crazy person.

He probably mentioned his dad voting for Reagan and then the therapist spent two years asking, “so, you remember that time your parents abused you?”

It’s frightening how easy it is to create false memories.

Usually people don't peak in their teens and have nothing else to fall back on.

In the 00s he was on the edge of nerd culture still, hanging out with Scott Kurtz and doing appearances on Big Bang Theory. But then Star Trek came back and while others were invited to be involved, he wasn't. Everyone was talking about wanting Picard, or Riker, or Data, or Troy, or Worf, but no one was talking about Wesley. Then Picard happened and it was confirmed he wasn't coming back. Even worse, in the third season they retconned Wesley out and Crusher instead has another son with Picard with no reference to her first born.

I think if he'd been able to get another show around that time, he wouldn't have been such a whiny bitch. But he's in a bad marriage, he's a joke, and his career is dead. All he has left is making up stories about being abused as a kid.

 

[regginknurd]

Wil and Wesley "Popularity" IMO falls solely on The Big Bang Theory that fucking show made a generation of fake nerds think Wil and thus Wesley was cool.

iirc Scott Kurtz retweeted someone saying The Big Bang Theory was "nerd black face" and that's what kicked off Wil fagging out and leaving Acquisitions Incorporated and ending his friendship with the big'ol webcomic fatty.

It kind of was if you take that kind of nonsense seriously. In reality it was just kind of bad comedy and kind of annoying if you were a real nerd. "Muh blackface." Talk about catastrophizing what was just shitty comedy.

I thought nerd blackface was an infamous moviebob tweet.

I'll also throw in the massive failure of The Wil Wheaton Project, which was on actual TV (Syfy) and bombed even by their extremely low standards. I think that was before Tabletop ended, too.

That was his chance to do his own solo comedy act and it was basically "The Soup for random geek stuff and not funny".

I was somehow blissfully unaware of this, so I had to go look it up. Apparently it was in 2014. This is the picture on IMDb.


And the pitch: "Each week, Wil provides his insider point-of-view, sense of humor and genre expertise as he dissects the week's most popular and trending topics across science fiction film, television and pop culture, video games, viral videos and news." Twelve episodes were made. Wow.

 

[Chan the Wizard]

I remember the Wil show on SyFy and it was a colossal failure. It was supppsed to be a nerdy rival to Talk Soup/The Soup but Wil is so unfunny and uncharismatic that it gave off lethal levels of second-hand embarrassment.

Even worse, in the third season they retconned Wesley out and Crusher instead has another son with Picard with no reference to her first born.

First, I'd kill for a Worf centered miniseries like "The Thick of It" where he runs around Starfleet as their Secretary of Defense doing spot-checks on various crews and helping them fix their bullshit.

But back to topic, Wheton was directly asked why he wasn't in Picard and this was his explanation (http://archive.today/Vuru0)

Spoiler: Aw Shit, Here We Go Again

In response to an io9 article about questions left unanswered by the Picard finale, Wheaton wrote on Facebook, “One of the fundamental rules of being in the Travelers is that, once you’ve joined, you must NEVER interact directly with the people, places, planets, etc. that were part of your previous life, because it can affect your judgment and break reality.” So while “Wesley would like nothing more than to visit his mom, and meet his brother,” he’s willing to make the sacrifice because he’s “in service of something so much bigger than anything else in his reality.”


Wheaton admits that his explanation is “headcanon,” deriving largely from a story he wrote for Star Trek #400, a celebratory anthology comic from IDW Publishing, specifically the story, “A Matter of Choice,” drawn by Joe Eisma, colored by DC Alonso, and lettered by Nathan Widick.


But rather than explain Wesley’s situation, Wheaton’s story actually further complicates it. The fact that Wesley is present for the wedding of Deanna Troi and Will Riker in Nemesis, and that he did appear in the finale of Picard season two to recruit Kore Soong to the Travelers (technically, an alternate reality, we guess, but it’s still a timeline touched by Jean-Luc), proves that the rules can be broken. And no sooner does Wesley tell readers about his restrictions than he visits an elderly Picard in that very same comic book, before going on to find Kore.


Ultimately, Wheaton’s explanation is not canon and thus doesn’t entirely have to gel with the shows and movies. In my headcanon, Wesley was there in Ten Forward during the poker game, standing by off-screen Guinan. But every time he tried to speak, Picard responded in his usual way.

He makes a big dramatic reason for something but then immediately gets called on his bullshit because it doesn't make sense. Never change, Wil. Never fucking change.

It could have been. I'm just saying I remember kurtz retweeting it and then Wil fagging out over it
