He's kind of a deep cut as a lolcow, and it's hard to exactly pinpoint why he's interesting.
It's this:
Very few people on Earth have the drive to produce high-effort content, the resources to create it according to their vision, and the cluelessness to ensure that all of it is shit in entirely new and shocking ways.
This guy explained it really well in one sentence, thanks man :)
 
One of the things I find most interesting is Toob's complete lack of social awareness, compounded by the need to be the centre of attention. My favourite moment was when Toob was on that Seinfeld podcast, spent the entire time hating on the show and generally being embarrassing. The hosts were noticeably annoyed and Toob was completely clueless, unable to read the social situation and understand the appropriate behaviour.

The caption says:

“no harder acting role than executing the subtle blend of humble, proud, friendly, intelligent and beautiful during a quiz show introduction and pleased to report i nailed it”
If HRT hasn't rendered him completely unable to get an erection, he most certainly had one while getting she/her-ed on national TV.

He looks awful.

The fact he calls reacting to a situation 'acting' may suggest he is unable of processing situations or outright feel outside of rehearsed capacity.

There is an idea of a Choob; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only a super actress, the princess of TERF island. And though I can hide my sexy gaze, and you can see my skirt go spinny and maybe you can even sense our struggles are probably comparable... I simply am better than you.

Further oddities - there's a PhilosophyTube account, created eleven years ago, last active six years ago:

The RealPhilosophyTube account is marked as five years old:

So, did he just create RealPhilosophyTube to pretend that the PhilosophyTube account isn't his? It's very... odd.
Late and gay, but found this) year old post on his dead alt account:

:story:
That's our Choob - never one to pass over an opportunity for Self-promotion.
 
That tube chin really is taking over his face. What does he think he's going to look like in 5 years! Also, his hair is fried.

He's so Alan Partridge levels of unfiltered narc, I sometimes still can't believe he's actually real and not a parody.

I wonder when we'll hear if he has any filming for HOTD3. If I were the writers I'd kill him off quickly in episode 1 and from there pretend that character never existed.

Apologies if this has already been talked about, but do we know what this 'Again Again' film (or short?) is? It's his only upcoming IMDB credit: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27426175/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_3_unrel_t_2

There's some info about it here and a little further down that page, and a couple of stills with Olly here. Finished and looking for distribution, apparently.

It's AGP Groundhog Day, that's basically all you need to know.

"Harassment."
Olly of course has already decided that the complaint is baseless and transphobic without knowing anything at all about the facts of the case or what the troon doctor is accused of having done. In fact he doesn't even seem to have read the article, because it's quite clear that the substance of the complaint is not about a man being in the women's changing room, but about the way the nurse was treated after she complained about it.

The tagline of Breadtube’s Patrick Bateman is apt, but he’s such a terrible actor that we see right through him.

He is trying on too many hats. YouTube content creator, dramatic actor, transgender activist, and slutty yet sexy woman. All at the same time. He really thinks that people will sympathize with him as he sobs about the struggles of transwomen in Britain while he’s dressed in fetish gear.

It is so fake and performative that he can’t be taken seriously. Not to mention that his height, body shape, and demand to look so visibly feminine makes him stand out in public. The attention will always be on him, making his flaws more noticeable.
 
Another comment on an old post (sorry).

I started working my way through this thread in mid-November, and I've nearly caught up. I love the vibe here, and feel slightly sad that soon I'll have to look for another thread to binge read!

On the other hand, there have been so many interesting conversations, and it's been kind of frustrating not being able to contribute or join in.

That said, I just couldn't resist posting these, because the resemblance is uncanny :story:

Regarding the activism, I've often wondered if that's an area where he actually turns down opportunities. He's quite shy when it comes to confrontation. He tried it with Tom Rowsell years ago and quickly got his farts blocked. He's not big enough for Piers Morgan's show yet but I'm sure his agent could get him some GB News or maybe even Jeremy Vine time if he really wanted.

At times, it can seem there is a chink in the narc armor, the finest thread of human light shines out, but then one realizes it's because he doesn't care about the NHS. Why would he? He's on BUPA's on premium plan.
 
Are we sure he’s still trying to present as female….?



Also I’m not sure I even understand the conceit here. That the media shoehorns “the trans debate” anywhere and everywhere? But isn’t that what he’s doing in this stupid skit? He brings up these devastating fires in California only to make a point about - transgender issues?

It’s very revealing of his narc brain cause presumably he has friends or associates who’ve been directly impacted by this. But this retardation is what he publicly shares.

There are over 40k terminally online horny Indians trying to colonize vaguene hyping this shit up. I assume they are Indian because even his engagement seems botted.

Prolly no associate of his has been hit YET and when it happens it would be the me show again.

Ollie's trying to make a subtle and intelligent jab at the BBC for both sides-ing the trans issue, because in his mind giving anti-trans opinions a platform is akin to arguing in favour of the California fires, or something to that effect. But then he goes ahead and mentions trannies by name anyway. Way to undercut your own metaphor.
