Damn. Your teacher is fucking awesome.

Yeah he was. Sadly he doesn't teach here anymore, he moved to teach at an art school in Vermont a couple quarters after that little event. It was for a good reason though: the school was offering a full ride for his son.
 
This thread has made me realize that I associate with a lot of weirdos. Here's a story about another of my Facebook friends. His name is Luiz.

I've known Luiz for a very long time. Longer than all of my other "Personal Lolcows" (except Jeffrey, of course). However, he never joined Facebook until recently. I always knew he was a bit...slow, but never realized the full extent of it until then. For starters, he's either 26 or 27 years old, still lives with his parents, and has never held a job until, like, four months ago. Even then, he just works part time at Dollar Tree, and only works about four hours a week. He doesn't have his driver's license, and to my knowledge has never even attempted to get it. To put this in perspective, one of my other friends who has epilepsy that prevents him from driving has at least taken his permit test; Luiz has never even done that and has no such ailments which would prevent him from driving. He just chooses not to.

He has (or had) a YouTube account, and despite never uploading a single video, it was pretty much his whole life. What would he do? Well, he pretty much used it like a social networking site like Facebook. Pretty much all he'd ever do would be message people and share videos. Pretty much all his messages are bullshit like "what do you think of [celebrity]?" "would you date [female celebrity]?" etc. He'd send a bunch per day, and Facebook's ability to instant message people has amplified that number to what I estimate to be literally 200 per day (I wish that was an exaggeration). His ability to share videos has also, unfortunately, been amplified by Facebook. The main problem is that 99% of the shit he sends is stuff that I have absolutely no interest in. He's into it, so of course everyone is. He sends people videos like this even when they aren't online. Every day, I sign into Facebook and have at least 20 unread messages, all from him and all videos I don't care about. He also stalks his old classmates (none of whom he's actually added on Facebook), and frequently sends me pictures of girls he went to school with, asking me if I think they're hot. I'm not the only one he does this to, either. My aforementioned friend with epilepsy (we'll call him "Jake") is also a victim of Luiz's bombardment. The two of us are the people he talks to the most, presumably because we're the most patient with him.

Like many lolcows, he's a big wrestling fan, and like many wrestling fans, he despises John Cena. He always calls Cena a "cancer," and sometimes says things that indicate that he would kill him if he got the chance, though he always claims that he doesn't wish any harm upon him. He claims to not watch WWE anymore, citing the poor quality of the product, but I think this is a lie because he always knows exactly what's going on in the company. He seems to believe that Vince McMahon (whom he always refers to as "that old Jew") is always devising dastardly schemes to trick people like him into watching WWE. In general, he rages in text over WWE a lot. Jake and I have joked that his parents go out every Monday from 8 to 11 (when Raw airs, for you non-wrestling fans) to avoid their son's loud temper tantrums. He tends to use wrestling terminology in regular conversation. For example, he claims that he "marked out" when the Kingdom Hearts III trailer came out, and that his dad giving him money on his birthday was "putting him over." He's obsessed with several members of the "YWC" (YouTube wrestling community), and constantly talks about them. He'll send pictures of random girls and say that "so-and-so likes her," or when we're talking about something totally unrelated, he'll say "wonder what such-and-such is doing right now?" The best part? He claims to hate these people. Yes, there really are people who obsessively follow things they don't like.

He also obsessively does impressions of these people. It started with him recording 15 second videos from his phone imitating various YouTube personalities. We thought it was kinda funny, so we laughed. In his mind, however, this apparently translated to "please send us a Lord of the Rings movie's worth of these impressions every day!" In addition to the normal videos he sends, he'll also send what basically amounts to the same four impressions over and over again. Nobody really responds to them, but he refuses to take the hint and keeps sending them. When these YWC people do Q&A's, he'll ask them questions using about five different accounts. They're all stupid, too, like "What if John Cena committed suicide on TV?" and "What if Britney Spears owned WWE?"

The worst thing about him is that he has Jake and I basically walk him through everything. Like, stuff that he could easily google himself, he asks us. A specific example would be when, a couple of weeks ago, I found a brown recluse spider while cleaning out my closet. I told him about it, and he didn't know what a brown recluse was. He had me send him a Google image of one, because he apparently couldn't take five seconds to do it himself. On another occasion, he basically had me set up his cable for him over Facebook, 'cause he'd gotten a new TV and was apparently too incompetent to read the instructions. So, I had to google what kind of TV he had and shit, and pretty much walk him through every step of it. He set up Skype on his phone recently, and was completely clueless about it. I ended up having to walk him through every step of that, too, and he's barely capable of following simplistic instructions.
 
Dr. Tremolo said:
I thought about posting about this guy in Obscure Laughingstocks because he does have an online presence, but he doesn't quite count so much (at least not anymore) so I'll post here.
A fellow named Phil known by the moniker Universetwisters - I know him from the GTA forums (which is his main turf of online presence and hugbox) and I used to talk to him because he was into GTA modding and stuff, but I just stopped because he's difficult to talk to and just so deplorable. So let's see what I can gather about him:
  • The quick rundown - his main interests, or perhaps only interests are GTA, trains and New Kids (a Dutch comedy show that got two movies, actually pretty funny). Nothing wrong with being dedicated to your passion, but he's quite an ass about it.
  • His predominant interest is the GTA games, and he's quite defensive and elitist about it. He plays few games outside of it at all because they're all redundant and linear, and GTA is open world. Despite that, he's mainly obsessed about the story in those games, so he only likes GTA III and VC (and SA, but only since the last year, he used to rage at its fans for being all wiggers and/or dumb plebs incapable of appreciating a good plot). He's alright with GTA IV due to having a good story (but the gameplay is too different for him to fully enjoy), and GTA V is a total travesty to him, which I'll go down into further.
  • The release of GTA V gave him a total personality shift. He initially liked it when it was first released, but then he was increasingly disappointed with the story which made him extremely depressed and angry. But because he has few interests at all outside of GTA, he just continued to play it with further depression. He pretends GTA wasn't popular until V (a lie if I saw one), which dumbed it down for dang dirty casuals.
  • He goes how older GTA games have excellent stories and SA and V are horrible because they have bad plots, but he has no appreciation for any literature, film or anything that is widely considered to be well written. In fact, his interest in media is only into mundane settings - anything science fiction, fantasy etc. is just shit and for retards, with him being baffled why anyone enjoys those. He doesn't seem to realize that nobody cares if you don't like something that is widely appreciated, but he deliberately goes out of his way to avoid the society as if he just wants to spite people. At times, he may even actually deep down enjoy something outside his mundane scope, but will shit on it just to keep the principles.
  • He likes to have his cake and eat it too when it comes to gaming. As I've mentioned he plays very little outside of GTA, but he likes to go how he's a seasoned veteran of gaming and how he hates those modern dumbed down games made for the lowest common denominator. At other times though, gamers are losers (but his love for GTA doesn't count).
  • It's easy to see why he only likes mundane stuff actually - he has extremely loose grasp on the concept of fiction. You won't believe why he hates media that is set in the future - he can't enjoy it because he's extremely bothered that the actual future doesn't end up as portrayed on the screen. That's right, the fact that hoverboards and flying cars don't actually exist today in 2015 impedes any possible enjoyment he might get out of such media. Which brings me to another topic...
  • Possibly autistic. There's a few traits that don't immediately hint at that, like the fact that he's been in at least two relationships (even if shitty ones) and that he's living fully independently at an early age, but it's a possibility. He's sometimes claimed himself to be on the autistic spectrum outright, while at other times he denied it while mocking autists. But well, there's his aforementioned narrow range of interests and his inability to fully grasp the abstract concept of fiction. In his cringeworthy videos (another thing I'll go into soon) he speaks with a monotone and he rarely has an expression other than a blank stare. He has siblings much older than him and his father (who's been dead for years) was rather old when he was born (not Bob levels, still somewhat).
  • Much like Chris with Harry Potter, he sometimes randomly expresses irrational hate for things he doesn't care about, based on nothing - for example Lego, handheld gaming or sports cars.
  • Oh yeah, for someone who's such a veteran of video games he clearly lacks knowledge. He hates handheld gaming because "it's not serious" and it's just a gimmick to pass the time on the bus. It's like he thinks it has never existed before iOS/Android games.
  • That YouTube channel of his used to have way more videos where he's post videos of himself talking in monotone as well as videos of his mother's drunken tirades. He was also a minor lolcow on his home forum for those videos as well as his asinine threads and posts, but that stopped when he learned to slightly keep his head down and he's got asspatters (with the rest of people simply ignoring him like a loud fart someone's made in an elevator).
  • He's a railfan. Not quite Len Shaner level, but still quite interesting. He expresses that kind of behavior I've noticed among railfans - upon seeing other railfans talking about their hobby, he stomps on them and chews them out and proudly exclaims that he does not sperg about trains outside the designated message boards - those railfans all keep acting like they're better and less pathetic than their brethren all the time because they're aware of their reputation. He spends over a grand on model trains a year - which makes his mocking of people who spennd a lot of money on video games hypocritical and ironic, but at least it's money he's earned himself.
  • When it comes to music, he loves happy hardcore and rock from the 1970s and earlier. Nothing wrong with that, but he's an ass about that too, he cannot stand people liking music he doesn't.
  • Extreme SJW-esque tendencies. Now this gets interesting - he's not an actual SJW. He's far too self-centered and anti-social to be part of any movement and he in fact sometimes makes fun of SJWs, so he's arrived at those beliefs entirely on his own. And yet his views put many diehard tumblrites to shame. Basically, he lives in a world where everyone but him is an incredibly racist bigot and if you disagree, you're his enemy.
  • Hilariously ignorant about the world. He calls out others for having poor geography knowledge, but most recently when talking about the European refugee crisis he suggested that they should ship some of them to Iceland and Greenland (not making this up), and then having a great shock when people told him that they're mostly frozen inhospitable areas incapable of housing many people. You can be humbly ignorant, but he revels in it and he doesn't want to know or understand the world - he's made fun of me that I live with my family in my early 20s and when I told him that it's just the way it is here, he refused to acknowledge it completely (oh yeah, he thinks Eastern Europe can't be poor because it's white, so how can that be). He's really just a simpleton - maybe another reason he hates science fiction is because he "can't see technology advancing further than it is now" and people insisting otherwise are silly (where again, he believes that when people enjoy sci-fi, they genuinely think that the world is gonna end up like this so they must be crazy for enjoying it).
  • He's not a communist, but thinks East Germany was way cool because they had good music and model trains. Denies that people died at the Berlin Wall trying to escape.
  • He's obsessed about Germany - in the same way as weeaboos are about Japan. He unironically identifies as German to a degree, but doesn't want to learn the language in the slightest and has zero interest in German history or its actual culture outside of a couple TV shows and modern music. And hilariously, I bet if he met an actual German being so proud of German culture he'd call him out as a racist fuck. He sees no irony in this and mocks weeaboos, rationalizing that Germany is just better and Japan is lame (but he's not a bigot, remember) so he's entitled to be like this.
  • While he believes he's smarter than everyone else, he just has a high school education and doesn't want much more. You know those spoiled liberal farts college kids who believe their degrees instantly make them more worthy than the unwashed, unenlightened masses? He is on the direct polar opposite of that.
  • Frequently drops personal stories and details about himself into irrelevant topics. That's basically a big part in how I know so much about him.
  • Proud that he grew up in a household with less technology than others and thus he's a man not dependent on technology... even though as you can clearly see, his entire identity is built on things that couldn't exist without technology to the point that he lets his mental state be severely affected with the fact that he doesn't like new GTA games.
  • Then there are some things that annoy him so hard he leads crusades of overreaction against them. Since GTA is such an important part of his identity he believes he knows it more than anyone else, so he makes long-winded essays that GTA Wiki must die because they don't know shit. He also frequently rages about GTA V Youtubers because they're all identical unoriginal hacks who don't make anything of substance and just milk things for money - true, but guess what, I just don't care about them.
  • Ultimately though with the way that he'd talk when I conversed with him privately, he's not a malicious dick - just a confused, sad awkward sap who doesn't know what he's doing and is far too absorbed up his ass. I don't hate him, just pity him.

Christ, that guy used to be on a site that I was on. Of course, he got banned two-and-a-half months after he joined.
 
Not mine, but this YouTube channel is run by a guy who reads what he claims to be true scary stories found on Reddit and other places. Whether these stories are true or not is anybody's guess. In any case, they're pretty entertaining and the guy does a good job at reading them. Pretty much every story is about someone's personal horrorcow, though.
 
I once knew a guy named Michael in highschool. He wore a rainbow dash shirt everyday which said "BRONY" on it. It looked roughly like this
mlp-rainbow-dash-brony-shirt.jpg

He constantly insulted everyone around him so I was the only person who tolerated being near him since I am immune to insults
He always spent classes drawing MLP fanart and then uploaded it to deviantart
Somehow he did manage to get a prom date (although she was a sped girl)
 
In my area there is a society for autistic people the meetings of which I sometimes attend because some suspect I might be on the spectrum, and because I enjoy their company and they enjoy mine.

Mostly this society's meeting are used by parents of autistic children to discuss their experiences and the pitfalls of rearing an autistic child. This noble goal was recently shot to hell when a fifty-something autistic man showed up and decided the meeting was going to be about HIM.

During this evening I came up with the term "capslock voice". It's like when some people write stuff on the internet purely in caps -- for emphasis, but of course it makes them look completely retarded. Now this dude basically did the same thing verbally. He had three modes of speech: 1. Loud and monotonous. 2. VERY LOUD and monotonous. 3. Dramatic crescendo. After 90 minutes of this my head rang like a church bell.

"My daughter is very good at math but has some problems socially..." one mom would begin.

"I AM VERY GOOD AT MATH TOO AND I TOO HAVE SOCIAL PROBLEMS DUE TO AUTISM", our gray-haired friend shouted nearly at the top of his voice. "BACK IN SCHOOL I WAS BULLIED BECAUSE I HAVE AUTISM AND THE TEACHERS WERE ALL COMMUNISTS*) AND HATED MY AUTISTIC INDIVIDUALITY! THE USA ARE MUCH MORE ACCEPTING OF AUTISTICS. IN GERMANY EVERYONE DISCRIMINATES AGAINST ME. BULLYING IN SCHOOL IS A VERY BAD PROBLEM AND SOMETHING MUST BE DONE ABOUT IT."

*) he was referring to GDR times

I do not exactly remember what this dude said because I did my best to keep his booming monotonous voice out of my head. Talk about sensory overload! This shouting and shouting and shouting was enough to give neurotypical people sensory overload.

Basically he was under the impression that everyone, from teachers to psychologists, policemen, city hall and even the autistic society(!) discriminated against him because of him being autistic and everyone ignored his noble goals and bright ideas. Thus he kept going on in his monotonous screaming, sometimes adding a dramatic crescendo to make a VERY IMPORTANT POINT. He also repeated that BULLYING IS BAD AND MUST BE STOPPED about what felt like a billion times. Everyone else didn't get to say much.

He was like an old-age version of Classic CWC during his worst years, shouting at the top of his lungs about a slightly more elaborate version of the Greene County Conspiracy.

I wish there was a way to play Kick the Autistic and ban him from the society meetings, but unless he does something very inappropriate, we cannot exclude an autistic man from a meeting for autistics (and their parents) because of him acting autistic...

But one would think that 50+ years is enough time even for autistics to learn basic social behaviour.
 
I would have to say the 'Black Israelites.' (My apologies if someone has mentioned them already.)


Nothing they say makes any sense and their beliefs have no continuity. They group together on busy city streets and sling murder and rape threats at everyone. They seem to mostly hate white and Asian people at first but if you watch them for while they really just hate everyone. Even other black people. They insult children. They harass gay and trans people. It just seems like they take time out of their days to just sling whatever hateful words they can at people for the sole purpose of making them angry. (Since clearly they have no idea what they stand for.) And then just when you think it can't get worse; apparently they think ufo's are full of black people who are technologically superior. They think that some kind of 'day of rekoning' is coming where only black people will have any power and they'll be blessed with amazing abilities like Will Smith in the movie 'Hancock'. (Their words, not mine.)

The first time I saw this video, I realized that this was the closest thing I've ever seen to the anti-whiteness of tumblr; but in real life.

ILLUMINATI JEEEEEWWWWWSSSS!
http://www.jesusisprecious.org/false_doctrine/zionism/israel_whore.htm
The times of the Gentiles will last until Christ returns at the Second Coming, after the 7-year Tribulation. The Gentile nations will attack, burn and annihilate Israel during the Tribulation. The Illuminati will dump their whore when they are done abusing and using her to conquer the world. This includes the Illuminati-controlled United States, who is the whore today of Illuminati-controlled Israel. Our youth in the military are being exploited as paid mercenaries to do the dirty-work of the Illuminati. If the word “Illuminati” sounds too conspiratorial to you, look on the back of any U.S. one-dollar-bill and behold the All Seeing Eye and The Great Pyramid, occult symbols of the New World Order and Lucifer. The world is being taught to receive a false Christ, the man of sin, the Antichrist. The NWO is the Beast system of the coming Antichrist. This is why the world is being conditioned and prepared to receive a world leader. Check out the multi-billion dollar Hollywood blockbuster movie series, “MINIONS”!!!

Hey, I'll tell you what, IF Christians today are commanded by God to support apostate modern Israel, then you must also support apostate Hollywood, because it is completely Jewish. When I went for my first neck surgery in 2009, I saw Jewish synagogues all over West Hollywood. I saw Jews wearing their funny looking skullcaps everywhere. Research for yourself about the Jewry of Hollywood and you'll be shocked. Literally hundreds of Hollywood actors and famous celebrities have changed their real Jewish names to hide the concentration of Jews in media (Larry King, Gene Simmons, Jon Stewart, Jerry Lewis and hundreds more).

The blatant connection between Christ-rejecting, blasphemous, Zionist Jews today and the homosexual movement cannot be ignored. Hollywood is ground zero for homosexuality, blasphemy against God and sexual immorality in the world.

“HOMOSEXUALS BRAINWASHING OUR CHILDREN IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS!” reports Mass Resistance, a family oriented Lobby Group in Massachusetts. In an alarming exposé of videos shown to Elementary School children, indoctrinating them how to perform fist anal sex & vile lesbian conduct, Mass Resistance urges us all to speak out now and stop the homosexual activists from corrupting our youth. Both the Communist ACLU, whose leadership are all Jews and the Jewish-controlled Media, are promoting homosexuality, lesbianism, and all abnormal abominations—all of which are rotting away our once Christian society

The world is saturated with demonic influences today. Europe is a gigantic hellhole of evil. Australia is literally the land spiritually DOWN UNDER! Asia is a prostitutes haven and a pornographer's paradise. The Philippians are a Devil's playground. Russia is as atheist as it is Communist. Yet, they have more freedom in Russia today than we do in America. Nationwide, riots and unthinkable crimes are becoming commonplace.

Dear lord, we need to get this guy to do internet radio.
 
Because I apparently only knew weird kids, here are some more lolcows from my past:

Jared was a kid who went to my elementary school. He was a grade below me, so I don't have as many stories about him as someone actually in his grade would. However, everyone in my grade knew all about him, and how he was an absolute suck-up to all of his teachers. He was one of those kids who would tattle on everyone else, and yell at them when they would do shit they weren't supposed to be doing. He seemed to think of himself as being above the other kids, but beneath the teachers. Like, an assistant of some sort. He was a bit like an autistic version of Randall Weems from Recess. I have no idea if he was really autistic or not, but he sure as hell seemed to be. One time, my friend Brian told me that as he was coming back from the restroom, he saw all three teachers out in the hall lecturing Jared. This was when he and I were in sixth grade, and Jared was in fifth. He told me that they were basically telling him that he wasn't the boss of the other students and shit like that. He also told me that Jared had this really stupid look on his face and just sat there turning his head to whichever teacher was the one currently speaking (all three fifth grade teachers were out there talking to him).

I did, however, attend a day camp program with him. I don't have many stories of him there, either, 'cause I didn't like him and tried to avoid him. However, I do remember how he'd scream at the other kids and stuff. A specific example was this one time when this kid named Dakota wasn't doing whatever he was supposed to be doing. The counselors were getting mad at him so he walked off. Jared had a pretty stupid way of talking, and I can still hear him in my mind yelling out, "DUH-KOHTA!!! GET BACK HEWE NOW!!!" Yeah, that's the thing; he had this weird speech impediment and a drawn-out way of saying some words. He thought everyone liked him and he'd always say "hi" to them while doing this weird little wave. Example: "Hiiii Daaaawwin!" Another time, some other kid hurt him in some minor way (I didn't actually see what they did, but he didn't have any visible injuries), and he screamed "OW!" at the very top of his lungs and started crying. The local high school opens up their pool in the summertime and lets people in to swim, and our camp would go there every year and we'd get to swim. As we'd be changing in the locker room, Jared would just strip down and parade himself out in the open for all to see. It was super weird and creepy. Since nobody liked him, me and a couple friends would splash him and throw pool toys at him. He'd yell "DON'T DO THAT, I DON'T WAN' GET WET!"...while he was in the pool.

For some reason, Jared never went to the same high school as me. I'm not sure what happened to him, whether he moved away, got home schooled, or some other thing. I never saw him again after sixth grade, though.
Unlike Jared, Timmy was in my grade. I don't have many more stories about him, though, for the same reason: I didn't like him and generally tried to avoid him. He was always extremely annoying and had a very whiny voice. Nobody wanted to touch him because, well into high school, he picked his nose and ate it. When we were in tenth grade, he decided that he was gay. He started dressing flamboyantly, and wearing eyeliner. Then, after coming out of the closet, he went back in. He did a total 180 and started saying about how gay people were evil and it was a sin and stuff. He got bullied because of this and eventually dropped out of school. I'm not sure what he's up to now.
 
There's this new worker (we got him about 2 months ago) at the place I work at who I'm realizing is one. You see, I work at a place where we give work for autistic, mentally retarded and people with other problems work cleaning and doing recycling. I help supervise and do clothes sorting. For the sake of privacy, I'm calling him Roger.

Roger is autistic (though he seems high functioning) and is pretty much 21-going-on-9. He also has a temper while I had a bad temper as a teenager (being autistic myself), pretty much a lot makes him tense up. Like the times I've mentioned that he's in my personal space when talking to me.

Roger is a habitual exaggerator/liar who constantly claims that he can't read even though he often plays Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokemon, doesn't know how to clean his own glasses, do basic cooking, write a wish list for Christmas, open aGatoraide-type bottle and that "no one ever taught me anything". I once told him he could learn (to clean his glasses), but he keeps saying "he can't" and "it's too hard". He keeps talking about how his parents never taught him anything and that's why he gets so mad all the time. I tried to to make him feel better by saying that at least he knows how to tie his own shoes. Replied that his dad never taught him, but that he could do it.

He often mentions how he gets into trouble like the time he got grounded for throwing a rock that made another kid's head and made him bleed since the kid made him mad. On Friday, he mentioned that his little brother called the police on him for having a knife and how he was "going to get revenge on him" and started tensing up and mock punched the pew (we were cleaning a church). While the part where he said the cops maced him and he broke out of the cuffs were probably an exaggeration, I got concerned about the revenge thing since I know Roger is strong and how tense he was. I talked with a fellow supervisor since I was afraid he might actually hurt someone. They assured me he's an exaggerator, but thanked me for telling them about the revenge part. When I got back, he started talking about how he was going to Tokyo this weekend. So I asked about how he was grounded last week and he expressed total ignorance of the rock incident.

There was also the time while I was sorting through a pile of donated clothes (we wash and resell them at a thrift store) and came across a child's superman costume. Since the belt was torn up and it had major stains, I had to throw it away. Roger sometimes helps with the recycling and saw the costume I threw away. He was starting to get angry and I tried to explain to him that the costume was in no shape to be sold. That his idea of using duct tape on the belt wouldn't work since no one was going to buy something that patched up and the stains were set so running it through the wash wasn't going to help. There's a rule that workers can't take stuff they find home with them (so we couldn't just give it to him), so it was going to have to stay in the trash. Given he loves superheroes and Superman and Batman are his favorites, he refused to listen to reason. Even though another supervisor tried to explain to him and had him get back to work, he was angry at me for the rest of the day. There was also a time that same supervisor had to call up some of the other supervisors while we were working at a church because she couldn't let him keep the comics he found while sorting trash and he wouldn't listen to her. (Part of this is due to this deaf guy (who's a major a-hole) who constantly breaks this rule and is known for stealing candy from some of the places we've worked at despite knowing that he's diabetic.) They tried to reason with him over the phone and decided to let him keep one of the comics, but I had a feeling he was still not pleased with the idea.

It's like how Chris Griffin found out that disabled people can also be jerks like everyone else and they're not all sunshine and saintliness like the media portrays them as.
 
The other thing I've come to realize about Roger is that he loves to not know things and trying to talk sense into him is a lost cause.

He'll constantly talk how he was never taught something. So where he sat near me and said how he never learned to play the guitar (when he saw one near a church piano). So I told him that he should learn how and to get lessons. He said he didn't know how to do that so I suggested that he ask his parents for guitar lessons this Christmas. He then said they don't know how to get him lessons so I replied that they could probably find someone. Then it's that his parents are too busy to listen to him, I told him to ask in the morning or at night. I explained to him that he can't go through life being upset that he can't do things and should try.

Of course he said it was too hard and then talked about "evil guitars". How he came across a demonic guitar and when he held it, his eyes turned green and it scared him. That's when it got a bit much so I told him I was done talking and wanted to go back to listening to my Ipod. Then he got mad and went to go sit in a chair and fume for a bit. At the end of the day, he was better and kept talking to me (while we were waiting for the bus) about how no one ever taught him how to use a bow and arrow or exercise.
 
Roger sounds like he's like a Liquid or Solidus Iconoclast with his "No one taught me" rhetoric.

So I promised to talk about the second Canadian Stooge I knew, so let's get into him a bit. Since I'm on my laptop, this'll be a bit more brusque than I usually am with my rogue's gallery of dumb.

The second Stooge, who I will name Peter, was a teenage edgelord when I met him, myself only being a couple years older than him. He was a Krautaboo at the time, being a huge fanboy of WWII and Nazi elements. He also was a Sovietaboo, enjoying the communist look and their propaganda. In a way, he was kind of like ADF; he loved him his Nazi and Commie uniforms. The difference was that Pete was way more with it. He still bought the Panzer myths, and he was a rabid anti-weeaboo, but he actually had moments of smart due to his WWII obsession.

He in particular was what we call a treadhead, which becomes a bit more obvious when I get into his likes.

Pete was a huge Warhammer 40k sperg, and the reason why I could never get into it until years after I stopped talking to him. He was an Imperium fanboy, and was an IG fanboy in particular due to his love of their fluff and all of their vehicles. He regularly referenced the commissariat and enjoyed the rabid theocratic bent of it and the death and the blood and the gore. He also got massively pissed off at you if you admitted you didn't care for 40k.

He actually went from having a crush on me to fucking loathing me when I thought 40k was dumb. And his version of 40k was dumb mind you, he was a massive grimderp type of guy, when I always preferred the "earn your happy ending" nobledark sort of thing. He also really sperged out about shit like the powersword and chainsaw weapons since next to the IG he was a Spess Mahreen fanboy (possibly an Ultramarine one, dunno though), which kind of turned me off further to be honest.

Cole did the same thing as a joke, not caring about 40k, and Pete got so buttmad he challenged my buddy to a fight in Dissidia. Yes, he proposed a video game duel over the honor of 40k. He autistically thought Cole hated Sephiroth, played as him, and got his ass destroyed posthaste. He then ragequit and never talked to Cole again, honor not regained.

I have a few more stories on Pete, so pick your poison if interested:

1. Pete the attention whore
2. Pete being a retarded failure in school.
