Bob's never been in a fight in his life, he's just LARPing. I'm sure he'll actually revert to his ITG persona in an IRL argument if he thinks it'll protect him from getting humiliated, but deep down, he's really scared, depressed and miserable cave troll who acts out of fear and insecurity rather than actual malice.A question that I want to ask all my fellow Bobologists:
I listened to Null's livestream today and he brought up Fatrick Tomlinson. I was only somewhat familiar with Fatrick and his online antics but had never listened to the recorded call until today. I was taken aback by how when Fatrick was placed under pressure he instantly reverted to the same mannerisms and language that he uses online, calling the caller a baby for example. I had always assumed that Fatrick was putting on a persona when he "banters" on twitter but I guess that's just who he is, an insufferable cunt who knows one insult. Maybe I give these people too much credit as I don't use my internet presence as a replacement for a personality.
Now that I've set that up, do you think Bob's the same way? Does he simply wave people away by calling them not real people irl? Seeing such a demonstrative example from Fatrick makes really think he does on top of spouting the weirdo stuff he does every day on line. I don't remember when it was, I think it was sometime after the Lindsay break up, but someone posted a video from Oneyplays where someone on it claimed that they had actually met Bob. He said something of the effect that Bob was cordial but started talking about weirdo bullshit with no provocation from the guy. I know Bob has claimed to have been in many bar fights, including in my white whale of a tweet how much catharsis there is in hearing someone's head crash into the bar when you kick the stool out from underneath of them, and I now want that all to be true. I don't want to live in a world where Bob Chipman doesn't go into drunken tirades about poorly thought out socialism/social change and Super Mario lore and has been kicked out of every bar in reasonable driving range save for Dave and Busters cuz they gots games!
Also, someone find that Oneyplays clip.
