Jim Sterling / James "Stephanie" Sterling / James Stanton/Sexton & in memoriam TotalBiscuit (John Bain) - One Gaming Lolcow Thread

[Mr Pancakes]

I think all of us have worked a job like that at one point or another, but (I'm hoping) the rest of us didn't turn into morbidly obese troons screeching at the stars about capitalism. Jim's problem is he is an aggressively unremarkable man by almost every metric, and his frustration over this reality is what causes him to lash out at whatever he deems the currently appropriate target (feminism, capitalism, transphobia etc).

He is incredibly lucky to have found the relative success he currently enjoys --mainly thanks to stealing his sense of humour from old British TV shows and comedians-- because if he hadn't tripped into this pot of gold he would still be working dead-end cubicle jobs in prefab office buildings, since he is qualified for and capable of nothing else.

Can confirm, many of us here have worked abysmal jobs and not turned out like jim. Its also annoying how much jim plays the perpetual victim as I mentioned in the video he did with laura kate dale about why he finds playing videogames traumatic because he has disabilities/conditions/insert any excuse here. I dont see why he doesnt just stick to reporting on the practises side of it. This is also pretty funny when you consider how much of an edgelord he was and how hes the opposite. Moderation is something he seems to struggle with. He cant just be happy that hes doing a job he chose to do and randos are giving him money for, he needs to somehow make out hes a kind of martyr for what he does, the act is getting old fast.

I still don't know how people can look at the complete 180 he's done and it not be obvious to them the dude doesn't believe in fucking anything; he just says whatever shit will get him the most attention/benefits.

It's even more blatant when you compare him to someone like Yahtzee who came up at basically the same time yet still makes the exact same jokes today he was back then, and when he is forced by his editors to change stuff he still finds ways to make a joke out of it, like referring to his 'Occasional Guide To Retarded Moments In Gaming History' now as 'Occasional Guide to R-Word Moments in G-Word H-Word'.

Will Jim forget he's only supposed to be a sperg as a character and get himself blacklisted from his wrestling "career" by taking the ever-classy move of airing your professional dirty laundry on twitter? Or are we still on track for him to seriously fuck up some poor woman (like with his shit form on throws) and get booted that way?

I hope whoever the lucky lady is is a virtue signalling moron and not someone pressured into participating, but I cannot wait to see the headline 'Transgender Video Game Critic Paralyses Woman In Backyard Wrestling Match'.

I can't imagine many wrestling promos would be terribly thrilled to work with a wailing prima donna who's made it very clear he will use his e-fame to publicly attack you and your company if you displease him.

Jim Cornette should give us Shimbo Sterlingson commentary

From a gender-blob dressed up in a weird clown costume to a gender-blob LARPing as a woman. What an improvement! wow

The wrestling commission's response to Commander Sterling:



The woman in question commenting on the response:



Her Twitter bio; pronouns included, my sympathy killed:



I honestly have no idea how much of this is kayfabe and how much of this is Sterling thinking this is kayfabe while being an autist.

 

[MidUSA]

That seems like a pro-wrestling work tbh.

Someone having an "iron-clad" contract is a wrestling-meme from some stupid angle with the Big Show many years ago.

Also, what are the promoter talking about with "Stering vacated the title from" this and that person? A promotion vacates a title that someone is currently is holder of but are unable/unwilling to defend it. A wrestler don't vacate a title from someone, they win it from someone else, or it's given to them from a promotion after it has been vacated.

 

[Dumpster dived waifu]

I don't get wrestling at all, can someone explain to my retarded ass what the current drama is?

In reality there is no drama, this is all wrestling shtick.

The storyline is that Sterling is abusing his position as General Manager and Head of Talent in the organization to take away people's championships because paperwork and he is evil.

Having the wheezy, morbidly obese and sedentary troon fuck people over using paperwork is frighteningly appropriate for Jim. This is truly """""art""""" imitating life.

 

[Nointey]

what has happened to the fat blob now ?


is he even worse now ?

 

[WhiteTrashPOS]

I just don't get this whole Jim in wrasslin' thing at all. Granted, I never had any interest in wrestling myself but isn't the whole draw of the sport getting to watch people do cool physical stunts and dare devil shit? What the fuck purpose could having Jim on stage possibly serve? A great big fat guy who fucks up his back doing regular household chores can not do any stunts or anything. It's like watching a musical performed by people who can't sing. Who would arrange such a thing? What's the point? Jim's delusion of being a wrassler baffles me more than the tranny shit.

 

[WaltherPPGAY]

You are approaching the concept from the view of spectator, a purely hypothetical position given that Ryse Wrestling appears to only have 16 patrons on Patreon.

Jim appears to have two managerial positions within the organization, I'd assume he is in large part funding the endeavor along with the other participants. Backyard wrestlers are generally placed across the sliding scale between athletic sort who want to do stunts and the theatrical sort who want to do shlock improv.

As for what Jim specifically gets out of it: Sterling gets to put on a costume, mince and choke slam his mommy issues.

 

[WhiteTrashPOS]

Well, damn. That clears it all up for me. Thanks!

so, Spergling is heel?

I hope he doesn't know about that
