Do we know if he has a job on the side with used-tires or something?

It's impossible for him to hold down any sort of job that doesn't involve bitching on the internet.

And they did it because of the Commonwealth's appeasement policy toward hairy religious zealots.

Easily the dumbest part of Andromeda. The wiki makes it seem like "And dur munster wins ebrydink forever becuz it iz unvinzuhbell"

 

[Gordon Cole]

Yes, because how dare people either gain employment or apply themselves in school. Truly, Chicago's going downhill:

People who disagree with me = Whiny idiots with no point. Again, he's 36, and he STILL can't wrap his head around people liking things he doesn't:

And lastly, this was too good not to share:

 

[cypocryphy]

He looks like a fucking used-car salesmen or any shady position. Do we know if he has a job on the side with used-tires or something?

He looks like a guy who would go to porno movie theaters if they were still a thing.

 

[Mola Ram]

He looks like a guy who would go to porno movie theaters if they were still a thing.

He looks like the guy who gets arrested for molesting the girl in the popcorn booth after the first reel is over.

What do you think his trench coat is for?

 

[Lensherr]

So I read his review for Spider-Man: Homecoming and took issue with two things in particular:

1). He never explains exactly WHY the high school drama doesn't work.

2). His complaint about it feeling "inconsequential". From what I've heard this movie has much more personal stakes for the characters than your average superhero movie, where the fate of the world/city is on the line, in the sense that it's more "Peter Parker has to balance his academics and social life with his career as a superhero", similar to a movie like Ant-Man or Logan. Personally, I'm glad more superhero films are going in that direction, because it makes for a more relatable experience IMO. And the best Spider-Man stories are the ones where Peter Parker struggles to find the optimal civilian/superhero life balance and how it affects his relationships and career.

Granted, there's always a minuscule chance he could be right and I won't be seeing the movie until Thursday, but from what I've heard from people I actually trust, it's really good so I'm taking Blob's review with a grain of salt.

So he would join the way of Paul Reubins then?

I take Bob's reviews with a massive stroke levels of salt. Also Spiderman looks quite fun and having Keating as Vulture is funny because he previously played a character that had tried to get away from superhero movies that was named Birdman.

1). Because if a movie shows someone in high school making the best of a situation, it's a cruel mockery to Bob. (You know he's that kid who kept bringing the bullying he got on himself.)

2). Because in the battle of realism vs. escapism, Bob will always, ALWAYS go for the latter regardless of how childish it makes his tastes look. Look at his tepid praise of Logan, Daniel Craig as James Bond, Christopher Nolan, his Dark Knight article, and his praise of any fantastical movie with cool shots as "Instantly Ikhanik".

Now I'm curious what he thinks of gritty, realistic movies like Winter's Bone or Naked.

[RockVolnutt]

I'm still curious on what exactly draws Bob to capeshit when a lot of it carries ideas he despises. Does he use it as a vehicle for his revenge fantasies? Like to him Spider-Man's about a nobody being given power to get payback instead of someone who had to quirky learn responsibility to survive. If so, it's amazing how he's able get the complete opposite message from what was a kid's story from 1962.

He absolutely projects his revenge fantasies on to capeshit. Oh and :autism:.

Well to answer your question you have to remember that he believes Magneto is right so that is always something to remember. Do we know if Bob sympathizes with other Marvel villains?

 

[Jewelsmakerguy]

It's impossible for him to hold down any sort of job that doesn't involve bitching on the internet.

And even then, would he even be able to hold it for long?

 

[A Random]

He couldn't even hold anything after The Escapist for more than a year I think. He's just too volatile.

 

[His Dewliness]

And even then, would he even be able to hold it for long?

I think pretty much 100% of his work over the past couple of years has been on youtube or as a guest writer for such esteemed sites as geek.com

So no, if/when youtube manages to fuck something up so enormously that the platform is no longer viable for mid-tier channels like Bob's, he'll be completely fucked and will have to go cap in hand to every film/"""geek culture""" website and beg for a job.
