CareercowRobert Chipman / Bob / Moviebob / "Movieblob" - Middle-Aged Consoomer, CWC with a Thesaurus, Ardent Male Feminist and Superior Futurist, the Twice-Fired, the Mario-Worshipper, publicly dismantled by Hot Dog Girl, now a diabetic
For all the times Bob bleats about the future, he sure is stuck in the past. It's easier than ever to emulate video games and play it on your television from a microcomputer. I built an entire goddamn server out of a six year old computer and two hard drives, and I am able to stream whatever I have, whenever I want, all in the comfort of my own home and on the goddamn couch. I've wandered the Internet for shit I have and I plan on doing the same thing for an emulation machine. Just stuff a bunch of ROMs onto a hard drive, make a file storage server, and get a bunch of wireless controllers. Boom, an emulation machine that just has the emulator and pulls the ROMs from the server.
His repeated complaining about populism and how people are too dumb to vote correctly once again shows how insincere his complaints about the electoral college not being fair representation are. Robert doesn't give a fuck about fair representation. He hates the electoral college because he perceives it as slanting things in the wrong direction. The US census counting (and therefore granting congressional representatives for) non-citizens who can't legally vote is probably a good thing in his eyes.
I really can't wait for Bob to announce that Bernie Bros shouldn't be allowed to vote on "important" things, like every election above the level of local dogcatcher.
"Obsolete white Bernie Bros should be forced to sit at the kids table at elections with their stupid mayo conservative fascist friends! Bernie Bros are exactly the same as Trumptards!"

I still can't get over of him and the idea of "kid's menu version of voting" not only because of the incredibly dehumanization of right-wingers/Trump-supporters, but at the mere idea that there could be something like that.
He thinks that the Dems would just announce it and of course everyone would just fall in line. In reality no one would support any kind of system like that and no one would enforce it. It's an utterly infantile fantasy, like all the rest of his political ideas. I won't even give Bob's ideas the dignity of being called actual policy proposals, they're completely incoherent and about as deep as a mud puddle. He might as well be talking about what he'd wish for when he finds a Genie bottle.
What makes me laugh from that menu tweet, is the whole "Do you think a fetus is a person? If so, you are dumb and superstitious". Bobo, hate to break to ya, but youre acting like a typical atheist asshole that those shitty Christian movies love making.

He does mention them earlier during the panel. He's worried about gaming adopting the netflix model because games could disappear forever. He says it reminds him of the scene in The Time Machine where all the books turn to dust. It is a real concern that I happen to share. Though I don't recall him making a big fuss when Nintendo shut down the e-shop. I think we'd never hear the last of it if it was Sony or Microsoft who did it. He might even have argued for a gaming netflix for retro games back in the day, but I don't care enough to go through all his videos to check.
That was great. He goes on about how he doesn't understand competitive gaming outside of competitive Donkey Kong, only to then shit on Ninja for taking games too serious, and praising sonicfox for "setting a good example". He is so passionate about this topic that he doesn't even know sonicfox's name, calling him "the guy in the fox costume".
It wouldn't surprise me if Bob revealed his only sources for games news are Kotaku and Polygon. Not the websites themselves, but their Twitter feeds.
That's interesting coming from a guy who in the same breath is calling to make our leaders less accountable to the public, who frequently throws out proposals that would make our leaders far, far more powerful, and who venomously shit talks anyone who wanted leaders with a D next to their name like Obama to have less power.
Robert really is an obstinate child with a thesaurus when it comes to politics.
"Why were you stealing cookies from the cookie jar?"
"I didn't touch the cookie jar!"
"I saw you with your hand in it just now."
"I dropped something in it and was getting it out. I wasn't stealing cookies!"
"I saw you take a cookie out."
"I'm going to give the cookie to a homeless person!"
"Alright, lets go to the homeless person together and you can give it away"
"Okay, fine! There's no homeless person! I want cookies and I don't want to wait until dinner! Fuck you, you obsolete ghoul! How dare you keep me from the cookies I EARNED!"
No wonder he wants other people to have "kid's table voting" for their views. It's a classic case of projection.
The thing that's interesting to me about Bob's rhetoric is the way he keeps describing the Obsolete Mayonnaise Ghouls as incestuous; "cousin-fucking", "family trees that don't fork", and so on. Keep in mind that this is a basement-dwelling neckbeard who calls other people basement-dwelling neckbeards, a fatty who calls gamers fat, etc; in other words, somebody who projects massively and continuously. And now we know that his brother's dumb and his niece is special needs, to say nothing of Bob's own obvious deficiencies. What does all this taken together suggest about the Chipman family?

Are you suggesting the Whateleys picked up stakes and moved to Lynn once Dunwich had gone bust? Bob is certainly bulbous enough to be a lost son of Yog-Sothoth.
It's interesting how easily Bob can be baited into admitting that he believes that not only should Republicans be disenfranchised and shunned, but so should every Democrat who disagrees with Bob in even the smallest of ways. He is simply unable to hide his spite.
