Fucksake, do you know how many people have gone with phone screens that look like a fucking spider nest because they didn't have the money to replace it right away? I know I have, and I'm sure many of you fine folks have as well. And cracked screens are so common that there is a whole industry that's grown around getting them replaced. Or, as someone else pointed out, you can just slap one of those stick on Gorilla Glass screen protectors so you don't have to feel the crack. It's like $10 for a pack of two on Amazon.
We know Lou reads this thread, but still: lying that you're cutting your fingers on your cracked phone screen is the sort of thing
everyone will pick up on, because everyone has either dealt with or knows someone who has dealt with a cracked screen like that or worse. I expect that particular tweet to have a short shelf life, because that's something people will automatically know is impossible.
For people like corust, it can go in the 'obvious lies' file. For any of the couple of poor idiots who have tried to reason with one of Lou's last couple of hangers-on, it's something to show them that even they will know isn't true. It won't make an iota of difference, no one will learn anything new - but it's the sort of thing anyone who will ever encounter Lou will have the experience to know that cuts are not what you get from a cracked screen.
Especially with the helpful photo evidence showing how little damage his phone actually has.
It's funny to me that this is likely just one of his standard exaggerations so he has a reason to beg for money, but no matter where you stand on troon issues, or his genealogy, or the Farms, or what Type II Diabetes does to the body, or his ever-changing relationship with his family, even the people who take Lou at his word on every single thing he's ever said no matter how contradictory, even they will know he's making shit up. The likelihood of someone like *huuuuugs* and Undertale Larper having cracked phone screens themselves is very, very high.
The most surprising thing about all of this is that Lou went to a store.
Like fuck he did. It's Lou. On the slightest chance that he did actually venture outside, it was undoubtedly with his dead mother. Probably to make sure she got the gallon bottles of ketchup.
