Careercow Brandon "Bam" Margera - From Jackass to Lolcow

The legal age in the US is 21, not 24. Still higher than the rest of the world, but not quite to the same disproportionate degree. The bigger thing is it applies to private as well as public consumption.

Even then, given who we're talking about, I'm pretty surprised Bam was that old when he first day drank (assuming the information given in that interview is true).
I know it's 21 - I'm saying that a legal age that high leads to situations like "first time day drinking at 24". In most other countries, you learn from that mistake (or learn how to properly fit it into the schedule of an adult life) around 19-20.

Always wondered how acclimating people to booze sooner in their life translates to lower incident of alcohol abuse/using the sauce as medicine.

As an American who has traveled extensively, I can say with some conviction that the "amateur antics of [our] drunks" are absolutely mogged by those of the UK, Northern and Eastern Europe, and East Asia. Haven't been to 'Straya but from the behavior of *their* tourists here I get the sense they'd beat us, too.

More broadly, Americans are not especially heavy drinkers relative to the rest of the world. South Korea and Scandinavia have the rest of humanity beat.

It's seen as more mundane and not a very interesting activity in such an environment.

@A Sentient Cloud My point was exactly that Americans are not heavy drinkers. They are bad at drinking. They can't handle their drinking. Northern Bongs and Strayans get absolutely smashed, but aren't constantly dying from it or aspirating before driving into a tree.
 
Bro it goes so much deeper. Bam was the biggest Valo simp around, he developed an eating disorder so that he could have the same exact body type as Valo, put his band logo over everything and even got into drinking because of HIM. He wanted to be Valo with every fiber of his being

* Deathfat sigh...*
Pathetic...

 
How are the police not finding him? Are they looking for him even? Or just pretending too? I kinda had this image of the video game Morrowind where you can attack someone in town and then just take off running out of town into the woods.
Doesn't seem like a particularly high priority. He's not a danger to anyone. He's almost certainly passed out drunk in some groupie's apartment, it's not like he's raiding Chester/DELCO backyards with a rifle. I don't think they need to deploy SERT to bring in an old alcoholic who got into a low-level domestic dispute, it makes more sense to issue a warrant and wait until he inevitably comes up for air. Poke around a couple of his haunts, show up at a couple of his friends' places, and wait.
 
updates from Jess:
Bam does not have a phone, but his girlfriend does. The 8 year old kid is not with April (Bam's Mom), the kid may be with Bam + the woman.

Sounds like he was screaming at someone that wasn't in the there (April?) during the incident.

If a child who should be attending school is stuck in a car with 1 confirmed methhead then an Amber Alert should really be called. That's a depressing picture Jess is painting.
 
Man, how hard up are Perlman and Elwes that they'll appear at some nothing con in Nowheresville, Florida? Poor Shannon Elizabeth is dragging her 49-year-old ass to the Ocala Equestrian Center, too. Guess she didn't marry rich.

Bam is charging $80 a photo, far more than any other individual guest.

Okay, but why pay 80 bucks?

Go to Flariduh, stand around a QT/Circle Jerk/Mobil, and wait for the smell of necrosis, feet, and unwiped ass to invade your nostrils. Be patient. Bamalam'll rock up shoeless with a White Claw tryna bum you a cigarette.

I guess what I'm saying is why pay for the cow when the milk's free for the enterprising and the patient?
 
Not to be all StOp ThE bI eRaSurE but Bam has always given me bi guy rather than gay guy vibes. In fact I'm pretty sure I just assumed he was bi during the Jackass years. I never got the sense that he was homophobic, nor did he seem to worry about how he'd be perceived by being affectionate with other men, in the way that insecure closeted dudes often are. Has he ever stated that he identifies as one thing or another?
There's something going on there, i don't think he's into physical love though, more like a crush on male madonna types, probably people he see's as his ideal self to gratify his narcissism or ego etc.

Imagine being so narcissistic that you wanted to suck someone's dick because they were the spitting image of your best self.

This, making drinking illegal just makes it fun and interesting. It also encourages binge drinking and drunk driving because underage kids want to drink the booze as soon as it’s available. They don’t know the next time they’ll be able to get it. And it puts power into the hands of adults who are willing to buy for minors. Sometimes that’s just an older sibling or friend with a fake who provides a case of beer or bottle of wine. But all too often it’s a guy in his late 20s trying to get high schoolers wasted so he can sleep with them. Or parents who don’t give a fuck, similar to Keffals’s parents. Lowering the drinking age would kick these assholes out of teens’ friend groups.

You know who was probably buying beer for Bam when he was a teen? Don Vito.

Imo it should be 18 for beer and 21 for liquor. Once driverless cars become common this will be a no-brainer.

Germany and Denmark have the best systems. Canada does all right with the age 19 one too, I think because that keeps it out of the high schools, and the "older" person who does buy it for younger kids is a 19 or 20 year old student more often than a creepy older man.

There is an argument that the lower age will cause kids who are under 16 to become alcoholics, which can fuck someone up for life. But most tweens and younger teens have enough parental supervision in their lives to not drink much. The ones who do drink that young don’t really care about laws.

Bam got mad famous round about the millennium. Let's be real, you could come out then without it necessarily being some big deal. He wasn't playing any romantic lead parts in Hollywood, he was sticking things up his ass and laughing at his bros doing the same. "One of them is gay" was hardly going to be The Scandal That Ended Jackass. April and Phil doted on him; there was no way they were going to disown him for sucking dick for cock.

Any trouble Bam has had with his own sexuality or sexual identity all comes from his own brain, not from anywhere else. If that's a factor in where he is now (innawoods!) then... well, by God, he can afford plenty therapy.

Christ, I feel so sorry for this kid. She's on a true and honest LARP of a JT LeRoy novel, trapped in the car with the junkies.
 
New video by The Unsurprising Faggot, yewtube link posted to save you from giving her clicks:
She’s just straight up attacking the family now like the unabashed piece of shit she is. She recently got married and I can’t believe that cuck is letting her obsess this badly.

And it looks like the crazy is going to start hitting his wallet:

He's been on the lam for what, 3 days now? How have they not caught him lol. He will be in someone's basement high as shit right now paranoid as fuck refusing to come out. Imagine how high he will be right now. Probably hallucinating Ryan Dunn telling him to be an earth rocker.
Having a warrant out for your arrest generally doesn't mean that they're actively hunting you down, barring shit like murders and the like. Usually it just means that the next time you interact with the law for whatever reason, they're gonna take you in then. Sometimes they'll go out and nab a few easy ones on a slow night when they know where to find em though.
