"Jim" / James Augustine née James Patrick O'Shaughnessy / Mister Metokur / Jim81Jim / Internet Aristocrat - His autistic videos and the gay beta "sweetie squad" who mindlessly suck his cock.

Also he was not married. I feel that plays a big part in things.

Having a wife always ruins even the best of men.

 

[Juan But Not Forgotten]

I may be the only one to remember this, but I recall him implying that Don Sargone had a role in the Krait discord, and ran with it even though there was no proof. I dont think he was ever polite to them after Gamergate, and was waiting for his chance to shot on him.

You might also remember, that his beef with Sargon was tame, until he outright called him a groomer. Before that he just laughed at his attempts at politics and ill-fitting suit.

 

[Piranha Pleb]

Jim married Jade? Who in their right mind would tell their newlywed wife "sorry honey I have to go spend my life involved in e-drama, can you make tendies?" of course the boomer isn't streaming and probably wont for the foreseeable future, he should make some sort of explanation for his paypigs but knowing his autistic fans they'll probably stalk his new home.

 

[byuu]

It was frustrating not having Jim shit talk sooner, but I think it was worth the wait.

How were his few lame tweets "worth the wait"?
Ralph's thread has funnier takes from random nobodies every ten minutes.

No one could have stopped the gunt once it started tumbling down.

You know that Jade makes Jim look like an SJW. She's 10x more racist and disgusting than Jim could ever hope to be.

All it takes is a couple ill-considered escalations from the Gunt for it to get interesting.

A Chad.

This is still incredibly tame and milquetoast, especially compared to what he said about Sargon and Matt for doing much less.

I think it's because Matt was everyone's favorite punching bag (for good reason) and Sargon helped out Jim's age to the internet. Mind you, he also implied Jim was behaving "like a groomer" and that he was a creepy old man hanging out with young boys on the internet to feel cool which, in hindsight and what we know of him now, is false--in that he's "creepy". Not so much him at 40+yrs old rubbing elbows with guys half his age and younger so he can seem like the cool kid.

It was pretty funny watching his streams on Sargon and his protracted vendetta against him. Not only were the streams funny because of Sargon's stupidity but it was funny because a grown possible middle aged man was this legitimately upset about Sargon exposing his age like he's a woman. A funny woman, but still a woman.

The "behaving like a groomer" part was after the Kraut saga, where Jim was desperate to link Sargon to the bullshit. I don't know enough about Sargon exposing Jim's age but it was very apparent that Jim started the fight first and Sargon tried (and repeatedly failed) to punch back. I'm not moralfagging here, it's fine to root for Jim, but you should be very aware that Jim turned on both of them because he was pissed off that they both decided to grift off Gamergate. He didn't mention them by name, but it was apparent that Jim was referring to Sargon, Matt, and Milo when he said he quit Gamergate because the people leading the charge were using it to enrich themselves.

Frankly, I always got the impression that most of his ire insofar as the grifting allegations went was directed towards Milo and a few others. I think his issues with people not picking an extreme and instead trying to capitulate towards moderates was what Jim's problem with Matt was.

Matt was definitely the grifter who pissed him off the least, but I'm certain he got pissed off at Sargon and Milo especially for their GamerGrift. How ironic that he's out-grifted the Don at this point.

I dunno who first said it, but many people, including CRP was saying that Sargon knew (even has a video up with that title). That leaked call with the Don doesn't help. IIRC, their conversation made it clear that Sargon had at least a vague idea what was going on in the gayops server.

How ironic that he's out-grifted the Don at this point.

Gotta wonder, will Jim have his day like Sargon (UKIP implosion), Matt (Bouldergate), or Ralph (Corn Harvest)?

 

[AnOminous]

He was always obviously an oldfag with a lengthy presence on the net which unless he started out online at the age of 5 or so would put him at the youngest in his 30s.

 

[toothless_banana]

Anyone put out the idea that Jim hasn't been around much, because Jade finally popped out his kid? Between work and family stuff, especially when mine were newborns, kept me off social media and the like unless in short bursts.

"Goodbye, Sargon" is the stream name. If you watch it you can tell by how he reacts at certain points and how frequently he repeats the subject that it genuinely cut him. If I recall that's where he started his "Boomer Jim [does it again]" meme, like how the "sweetie squad" meme began after he and a few other blood sports streamers got rolled over by one of those "Honey Badger" girls suddenly popping onto their stream and calling him a sweetie before leaving. That was a very "Sarah Jessica Parker calls Opie & Anthony" moment, so he turned it into a meme, like with his age.
As for the "grifting" problem,

Spoiler: Excessive Useless Information

yeah that was an issue but everyone who was there knows that he was being exposed too much (as in, given too much attention) for his own liking. His streams or vids at the time became a platform for updates and discussion on Gamgergate not just for bantz. If I recall he even got asked to be in a radio interview with some actor who also supported GG and for a guy like Jim who just likes raids, bantz and anonymity it got to be too much. Then he got Jade over his place and finger-popped her on stream. Since the streams weren't just drunk humor and bantz this was a problem to a lot of people. They turned on Jim for what they believed was his callous disregard for blah blah and he turned tail, using the "grifting" as his excuse for abandoning everything.
It seems Jim got caught up in something he never wanted and got too much attention, and the wrong kind. He got a lot of heat for finger-pops and left.

Note how whenever it was brought up in earlier blood sports or etc. to him (claims that he "fled GG like a coward" or "finger-popped Jade instead of taking it seriously") he deflects it with memes and humor. To this day he'd probably compare GG to Chanology and mock the thing to distance himself from it and any embarrassment.
You can tell when Sargon confronted him about it with one of his sycophants (on some stream or another some time ago) that he was genuinely irritated by it. Then in the same stream Sargon tried pulling some retard's version of manipulation by, right after confronting Jim, complimenting him excessively and remarking on how clever his "Metokur" moniker was for what it meant in a foreign language until Jim told him that wasn't the reason for the name and was just coincidence. Then Sargon complimented him again anyway. Wish I knew what stream that was because it felt like baby's first Love Bombing (a cult technique to win someone over by showering them in positivity/love).

tl;dr Jim never wanted to be an activist or even accidentally stumble into such major change of any kind, which is fine. He just wanted banter and raids, hence his advice when officially leaving GG that people should have just "continued to attack, attack", like it was still the 4chan raid of Tumblr or something.
Also the dude has a weird childlike reaction to people "insisting" or repeatedly requesting he cover a particular subject for a video or stream. He immediately and openly refuses to do it despite that being what people want and even what he might want, as if to punish them like kids. I'm sure this is part of his outlook on the GG thing too.

Whether anyone agrees with that or not, and whether or not the grifting was a major hindrance (it wasn't, the real hindrance was excessive self-policing and no one being smart enough to realize how one-sided it was and thus an obvious tactic to dismantle the movement from within Occupy Wall Street style), isn't really relevant. All that matters is Jim routinely deflecting or softening the blows of embarrassing situations with humor and, to be fair, most of us could learn something from that. It comes from a very "own it" mindset.
We could also learn how to milk people for money by doing jack-all and almost slipping and calling them "pay pigs" outright during a "Member's Only" stream--but that's just typical Patreon effect.

Also why would anyone root for anyone? It's Kiwi Farms.

He was always obviously an oldfag with a lengthy presence on the net which unless he started out online at the age of 5 or so would put him at the youngest in his 30s.

True, but I think most people wouldn't and didn't put two-and-two together like that, hence why Sargon felt like it was a bombshell to drop on him and why Jim reacted the way he did.

 

[Mongo0o]

Not in the wild. The closest I've seen is one of the Screenwave leeches wore the star hat during a rental review episode with the AVGN.

I've seen someone wearing a Jim hat at a gun show. You can probably guess what they looked like.

Gamergate WAS his day. It turned into an embarrassing shitshow that he was the defacto leader of.

Though, honestly Jim is basically almost at the point of having his day. I mean, he basically turned into a luckier Spoony at this point. All he needs to do is shit on his fans and then the transformation will be complete.

This is probably the best explanation of his absence and why he hasn’t been streaming. I think he’s just going to ride of into the sunset. Jim’s always talked about saving the money earn from YouTube and not living lavishly. The traffic ticket picture showed his car is just a average car and not a fancy car.

For all of those people, you could see their "day" coming. Jim is just smarter than those morons backed up by the fact that he keeps his facial identity hidden unlike those three turds. Infact after 776 pages on kiwifarms and over a decade on the internet, there isn't even one leaked credible photo of Jim which is amazing when you think about it.

 

[ShiftyBoi]

God damnit I actually enjoyed his streams. He seemed like a really down to earth guy who wasn't trying to sound smart or anything.

It'd be almost poetic if he just settled down and laughed as the internet tore itself into more shreds.

Unfortunately laughing at retards on the internet (besides here) has become difficult.
