That seething anger and the self-admission that his urbanite elite life isn't all it's cracked up to be even as he desperately reassures himself that the stupid mayonnaise ghouls live an even more miserable existence is telling. I foresee basic coding tutorials in his personal superior future.

It's unbelievable to read Bob attack others for making fun of laid off journalists after what he has said about the "obsolete mayo ghouls." If your "jerb" goes away it just proves that you weren't cut out for the superior future....unless you're a buzzfeed blogger, then it's a cosmic injustice.

It's part of the "REAL WORKING CLASS is fat minority women living in the city and clickbait writers, get with the times" meme that's been floating around. Bob retweeted someone saying a variant about a page or two ago. You will notice he even refers to this hypothetical journalist as female.

I read that extremely long and rambling blog post and this part stood out to me:

On the one hand, I’m annoyed with myself that I failed to simply pull away and not fall behind on work. On the other hand, I didn’t crack open the whiskey (or have even a drop of alcohol, the whole time) and just start self-righteously ranting – I’m proud of that.

Is Bob a recovering alcoholic?

 

[Emperor Julian]

This is man so devoid of introspection or self-awareness that I suspect he may not be sapient.

I noticed how he referred to the unemployed journalists as women? So countdown to Bob Trooning out?

Never. What I mean is he's said as much before and clearly the image he's trying to paint is of "the real working class" as he's previously discribed it. "Wasteland ghouls" are yesterday's news, the working class now is some lady writing articles about what fits in her ass at Buzzfeed.

 

[Rei is shit]

Two selections of his incessant prattling caught my attention.

I would almost sympathize with Bob here, but I know that it would be a waste. This emptiness might be from the fact that he knows that on some visceral level that his "work" give him no joy or fulfillment. Why would it? Does anyone remember Shakespeare's critics four centuries after the Bard shuffled off this mortal coil? Of course not! No respectable university or college course is going put his videos, blog posts, or his shitty book down as required reading on the syllabus.

As for the emotional need: could it be validation? Bob appears to be seeking affirmation from all the wrong source. Any "friendship" he seeks to have with Zoe Quinn, Brianna Wu, etc. will be transactional and completely conditional. He was willing to throw his boss and friend under the bus for ideology's sake and Quinn/Wu/Whoever would do the same to him in a Boston minute. Additionally, he seeks emotional validation of the Elites or "Intellectuals" who will never recognize his so-called gift and I imagine that is a factor in why Bob lashes out at "the Wasteland." He has "worked" so "hard" to get where he is now, but it is will hanging by a thread because he could still get fired or lose his Patreon bucks.

Maybe he is feeling this harsh bout of imposter syndrome because that is what he is: an imposter. He claims that he is this insightful and witty renaissance man of refined tastes and sublime intellect, but he is just one of the rubes. His friendships are superficial; no studio is going to listen to his ideas; and his knowledge of pop culture is more feeble than he would care to admit.

Spoiler

Just to add to this, there is plenty of "spiritual" fulfillment one can get from movie, books and even tv shows. Not to mention the intellectual challenge a lot of the greater works present. You can grow in both of those dimensions from choosing the right sort of media to consume, along with a million other things you can do.

But bob doesnt. There are a few worthwhile movies he mentions a year but that seems to be more of a consequence of going to films festivals as part of his whole "look ma I'm a real critic" shtick. Almost all of the shit he writes about is mass market films, which are fine as pieces of entertainment but have very little depth and at their core are almost always cliched messages that you've heard a million times since grade school. If bob reads books, which I think can be ruled out given his clumsy writing, he doesnt mention it. And that seems odd for someone who likes to subtly brag about how smart he is.

He is basically consuming McDonalds day in day out and then wondering why there is a hole in his life. Of course he is probably literally consuming McDonalds everyday too, which isn't doing his mental state any favors.

It'd be sad but then he spergs out on twitter about obsoletes and then all the pity dissipates.

He never got an epiphany like the one I had years ago. One to spread your wings and try new things out.

Bob has flat out claimed that he's passed out in hotel lobbies completely shitfaced on numerous occasions.

He's also called himself a bar brawler before.

You can't possibly know what life is like for city dwellers, but I know its better than how you live, despite the fact that I've lived in the good part of Boston my entire life! Also, for all the shit talking Bob does about obsolete jobs, how the fuck did nobody see this coming, did they think that with new algorithms, the creation of ai chatbots, etc. their overpaid think pieces and, reddit/tumblr meme compilations would keep their jobs safe?

"Could we be wrong for shitting on the very voter base we needed to win elections?" "No, its the middle class that is wrong for not feeling enough shame!" - how I imagine the conversation between Bob and his last brain cell before this tweet went.

 

[Judge Dredd]

That extended post is so disconnected from reality that I wonder if Bob even believes it. Be it the lie that GamerGate was a terrorist organization, or him still claiming to have layed off and not fired for sperging too much.

Because some old mistake or something I didn’t even know was a mistake (but probably should have) comes back to wallop me out of nowhere.

What mistake that he didn't know was a mistake he talking about? Going back to The Escapist? Posting those cosplay photos?

I wish was a rating too.

Replace the dislike rating. Kind of redundant when disagree and dumb exist.

Jordan Peterson went on a tangent during one of his lectures about how low end white collar jobs are being wiped out at an alarming rate due to automation. People saw this coming, but journalists didn't. They assumed they were immune to it. They are a unique creative soul with unique thoughts, opinions, life experience and an education, not some corporate drone going through the motions.

Bob convinced me. All the stuff that journalists did like blackmailing HanAssholeSolo, the Covington kids, downplaying murders and rapes if it's inconvenient to their narrative, lying about everything from Trump to PewDiePie to Mattress Girl to GamerGate. It's all okay because they have to commute to work and sometimes have to use Starbux' internet.

If the journalist's lives are that shitty, then isn't fate doing them a favor by eliminating their jobs, freeing them up to pursue more lucrative fields? It doesn't really sound as if any of these young, hopeful journos were going to be anything other than indentured servants, trading a large chunk of their future and earnings for the chance to play a character in "Sex and the City" (only without a fancy apartment and a limitless clothing budget.)

The really funny thing about this is that journalist's aren't necessarily limited to simply being a journalist. A journalism degree could be used to land any job in the communications field. Public relations positions, social media management jobs and even marketing jobs will easily accept these people.

You don't have to be a news writer or reporter. They want to be though because they are such incredibly smug and egotistical assholes.

Who will tell the people the TRUTH but the costal elitists like Bob?!?!

Tangent: Anyone else remember a time when reporters were hated and vilified because they dug into people’s lives or is that my own Berenstein universe?

 

[CharlesBarkley]

The only reason Bob cares about those journalists is because that fat nigga always, and will always, want to be one of the cool buzzfeed hipster kids slamming art school pussy and eating at fancy Asian fusion places.

Bob is unaware no matter how much praise he would give them, they will never accept him because he is an obese "Da Bears" looking sperg who dressed as Mario in an embarrassing photo.
