Thought I'd do a check up since its been years, remembering how funny the "He beats me" rants were. Jesus Christ, this got depressing.
When Earl first got discovered by the farms this shit was pretty entertaining, the videos of Earl bitching about getting beaten and then himself and Sherms getting into screaming matches almost had a skit-like quality to them lmao.
This whole situation will only keep getting worse, all of this lore is like repeatedly watching a car wreck, knowing what's going to happen but simply observing without any power. I discovered this thread in 2020 when I had nothing better to do, but even now that I'm busier, it seems like every occasion I return here, there's some brand new shit going down.
Every possible outcome/trajectory that could occur after we lose Mrs. Shultz is bad, I have trouble imagining any positive outcome to this situation. Some people earlier in this thread kept speculating he could actually get the house after his mother passes away, I mean it's not off the table completely; it's a surprisingly common scenario that the psychotic/dysfunctional/abusive family member somehow ends up with the inheritance/owning property. But even then, it seems more likely his family wouldn't let that happen, I highly doubt his sister/brother-in-law would want him living directly across the street , especially when they have young children lol. But even in the opposite case, if he does end up getting the house somehow, he's so mentally unstable he'll do something to fuck it up. This dude is quite far from functional and manages to mess up any situation/relationship he ends up in with his serious issues.
It's always more insightful to get the viewpoints of people who've encountered Earl IRL to give us more information about him, as most of the content/info we've received is actually through the unreliable narration of this shitty human being. It seems like when other people call out Earl's actions, there's all sorts of nasty behavior coming to light. Hell, I can only imagine how his own family views him and all the shit he's pulled that hasn't been revealed. This is the same motherfucker who tried planning a party at his parents house as they went to visit his dying brother at a hospice house (Nobody came since he got zero attention). That particular detail stuck with me since it really reveals his true colors.
