Most of all? 10k brought in by strangers, and absolutely nothing to show for it. He doesn't have the Tablets or Laptops outside of a handful (allegedly), hasn't improved his living condition and is in the exact same hole he was in at the start of the year. Lou has received TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS and where other people would have put that much money to good use, he has done absolutely fucking nothing of worth with the free cash he has received.

it really is sobering isn't it? I'm sure when most of us think of what we could have done with $10k tax-free, given to us purely to spend as we pleased, we could all name tangible things to have done with it--home improvements made, debts paid off, maybe appliances or a car replaced. trips we could have taken with friends or family, creating memories we would cherish forever. even if it was simply donated to a charity, that much money would have improved so many lives.
the fact that Louis has absolutely nothing to show for his $10k really is a crying shame, in many, many ways.

That $10k could've been put towards a house's downpayment if Lou had a job to pay off the mortgage, he'd actually be his own landlord.
It could've been put towards a car so he wouldn't need to walk or take the bus, which could've also enabled him to go further than the confines of Greensburg PA.
Hell it could've just as easily been placed in a savings account to culminate interest and earn even more.

That $10k could have been given to his mom to put away for the down payment on the nicer house in a better area that Mama Gags has been dreaming of for so long, as a way of thanking her for the years and years she's allowed Louie to live in her home rent-free. That $10k could have gone to a real PoC trans who is experiencing a period of genuine poverty and hardships, and will be evicted from their home soon. Someone like that receiving $10k would mean that, if nothing else, they'll at least be able to pay their rent and avoid sleeping on the streets for the better part of a year, and that would be a major relief for anyone facing genuine poverty. But for Louie $10k meant buying more computers and consumer electronics than any ten reasonable people would ever need, and some furfag fap art.

no. plagues must be contained.

 

[Aunt Carol]

$1.42 for 32 ounces of Great Value spaghetti.

With $10k, Lou could have purchased 13,986 pounds of spaghetti.

That's 111,888 servings, for normal humans. 4,363,636 grams of (net) carbohydrate.

(This doesn't account for shipping; Lou would have to chain a line of shopping carts behind an in-store scooter.)

Lou's birthday griftathon begins tomorrow:

A little late but the implication is that if you're shaving your pubic hair and your hand slips, you'll slice your clit in half with the razor. Still nasty and honestly a joke I don't want to hear from some fat, male lawyer on Twitch.

 

[Doggo]

"if you shave yourself down there and miss, does the phrase become shave and a haircut...two clits"

Does anyone know what the fuck this means and if it's supposed to be funny?

I have no idea, but I can guarantee I'll have nightmares about it now.

I still can't get over how an almost 40 year old man is "preparing" to beg for money a month before his birthday, and will be counting down daily.

He just has no idea how utterly pathetic he looks acting like this. I've seen a lot of cringe worthy shit online in my life, and Lou is up there with the best of them.

At least I can gain some happiness knowing it took him -days- to beg for $15 to get to Wal-Mart. I wonder how many people will donate to him?

I think the best thing I can put this down to is normalization of deviance. For example, your smoke alarm starts going off for no reason, that's the deviance. But it keeps going off for no reason, and you start to normalize it, hence normalization of deviance. That normalization of deviance then goes on to bite you in the arse hard when a real fire shows up.

I think Lou has done this for so long, and so often, that now it feels completely and utterly normal to them, and as a result, they are wholly incapable of seeing and understanding how fucking stupid and sad this all is. That is the only way I can wrap my head around this mindset. Add the emotional immaturity into the mix and that's how you get... this.

And yet nothing about his poor, collapsed stepfather. It's almost like he just threw a lie out there because he was low on his daily "pity me, my life is hard and I can't eat!" dosage.

Oh boy! Finally! The one thing I love more than constantly changing the thread's title: constantly hearing Louis bang on about his birthday while lying about not getting anything from the last year!

1. Lou stops pussyfooting around with these gay requests and starts demanding donations and/or issuing donation mandates.

The idea of Lou demanding donations was so funny to me that I couldn't get over the idea of him establishing some kind of tithe fiction. I'm spoilering my bold work of speculative fiction, but my point that Lou would absolutely do 1984 The Animal Farm to us if it meant that he could crowdfund for iPads on an industrial scale still stands.

Spoiler: A Brave Lou World

It's the year 2035. The Ace Dictatorship has been in full swing for three years. As you're walking to your job at the fursuit factory, where 90,000 employees labor to gather the fabric necessary to create a tiger suit for the Great and Immortal Leader. Out of nowhere, a cop citizen tolerance enforcer smacks you in the face with the butt of his rifle.
"Records show you're behind on your tithe, sister," he tells you. "If Ace could be on her hands and knees, she could be. Please donate."
As you frantically search your pockets for enough change to meet your quota, the loudspeakers above you crackle to life. It's the morning announcement, so rote that you know it by heart. "Please donate, yinz guise," the voice of the Great Diabetic One. "I'm a poor disabled transwoman just trying to live. Remember to report your local transphobes, wetbacks, and Christians."
Across the square, you see a woman being hustled across the street by two soldiers clad in fursuits. You don't know her crime--it could be anything from possession of religious paraphernalia to excessive femininity and attractiveness (a necessary penalty levied upon biological women to lessen their trans sisters' dysphoria)--but you recognize the blank terror in her eyes.
After narrowly escaping being taken in for insufficient tithing, you arrive at the factory. To your horror, the enormous swath of fabric you've been dying and cutting is being carted away. "
"What?" you cry. "I spent five days on that!"
"You didn't hear?" your coworker asks. Her eyes glint dully in her tired, puffy face, like two old marbles pushed into a lump of dough. "She's a mountain lion now."
After three years of constant humiliation, of being forced to accept falsehood and insanity as gospel, of countless indignities great and small, this is what breaks you. You begin to cry. You know that this means that it's over, but you can't stop yourself. The tears choke out of you like you're sick. As the compliance officers drag you off, you can see your coworker's sets her white face to you, passive, like a helpless animal, devoid of any love or farewell or recognition.*

*Extra points if you can tell me what this is from!

 

[Spoonomancer]

now hold on, October 16th is Lou's birthday right? Which means, between then and now is the tugboat, correct? Lou is going to full on claim that the tugboat was "A Generous Donator" that he refuses to name to this very day, as while he's A-OK with blaming his friends for interacting with him, suddenly privacy is his biggest concern on this donator who keeps donating to him every single month at the same day, when all sorts of Gov't money is being sent out.

 

[BananaSlamma]

Wait, so Lou mentioned that he takes Metformin (a generic medication) but he also takes Januvia (A brand version of sitagliptin)? Are those drugs prescribed at the same time or is it an either-or thing? I think both do the same thing so this feels weird.

Out of pocket. So Lou either has insurance some how, without a job, or he gets benefits like we suspect.

They can be prescribed at the same time, and so frequently are that they come in a combo pill, Janumet.

Januvia/sitagliptin increases insulin production, decreases glucagon production, so it's only useful for people who produce insulin (i.e. most Type IIs).

Glucophage/metformin reduces insulin resistance.

Metformin is one of the older antidiabetic medications. It's on the $4 list and has been generic so long that if someone calls it "Glucophage" you know they're old as heck.

Glipizide is on that $4 list, too. A working diabetic with copay problems or poor coverage would talk to their doctor about trying the cheaper medication first, instead of the sitagliptin. Luckily for Lou, the community is paying, so it doesn't have to touch his spaghetti money.

oh darn Lou that sounds kinda low, wanna explain why you have only 99?

I just wanna know what it's like behind the scenes for JakeTheFox to see any worth to remain friends with someone who only ever berates him in public spaces. Like, what does Lou offer to Jake that's worth this much trouble for him publicly?

I absolutely love how Lou keeps hopping between "I hate Joe Biden " and "I want to suck Joe Biden's hot dog soaked in water for several hours looking dick" every other day.

Okay that clears up that part a lot, thanks so much. Lou's one of those people where something like that makes me double take unsure if something like that is common or if he just pulls another lie out of his ass.
I bet the cost of that shit is part of why he isn't bothering to attempt working, even though if the IRS found out about how much he's grifted so far this year he'd probably be outside of the Medicaid income limits anyhow.

I'm not American so I don't know how hardcore the IRS operates, but would his totals of undeclared income actually be of interest to them? Would they be considered "donations" and be tax exempt? Would they even care?

I know in dollarydoo land our version of the IRS is pretty anal about any discrepancies in your income, so there is a pretty big potential for them to come down hard if you fucked up your income statements. As in, "Pay us what you owe and this hefty chunk as well for wasting our time, cunt!"

I think it all comes down to what the donations are marked as within Paypal's system. If it's sent as a gift then it can't really be taxed cuz you can't track that on tax forms, but if it's done as a business exchange then it absolutely could. Paypal does automatically report income to the IRS after a certain point, but we dunno if Lou has reached that threshold nor if his donations were marked as business exchanges, so whether or not the IRS actually could investigate that is up to whatever the future decides. If they can and do though, it'd be an interesting saga because the US IRS reeeally doesn't like tax evasion, especially in extreme cases like this. They're about as anal as the Aussie IRS stuff you're describing too when it comes to income discrepancies.
