I think Bob just hate Jim Caviezel merely because the guy is a devout catholic and seems genuinely happy. Unlike Bob who is misable without his consumer God that is capeshit.

Jim Caviezel starred in the Passion.
The Passion got Bob fired from his first movie review gig.
Ergo Jim Caviezel is a bad person and must pay.

There, that's Bob's entire logic train.

That's news to me. What's with that story?

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Maybe I missed something, but what is Mooby's and why is Chris obsessed with it?

It's a fake fast food chain from Kevin Smith's movies. Basically a weird combination between Mickey Mouse and McDonald's.

Bob is only obsessed with the real McDonald's.

Really? It's from his book. I quoted this passage before, I think @Adamska has also gone over it recently.

From Brick by Brick:

I’d never gotten much of a sense that anything was especially “off” about the guy running the show. I knew he was fairly conservative politically – ex-military and an ex-cop – but it had never come up in any kind of negative way. But upon the release of Mel Gibson’s “The Passion of Christ” and the controversy surrounding it something seemed to change in him. I was fairly certain both co-hosts knew that I’d seen the film and hadn’t cared for it, and expected it would make a good show when we sat down to review it. Instead, I got a phone call, and an unnervingly scary life experience.​

​

My employer (though, for the record, I wasn’t technically being “paid” for my services on the show) summoned me to a “meeting” in his van, in an empty parking lot early in the morning. He did freelance security work (or he said he did, at least), and was “on the job.” This set off more red flags than I could count, but I showed up to meet him. He presented me with a printout of a scathing blog review I’d posted after seeing the film the first time, and wanted to know what I had “against Jesus Christ.” Unwisely, I offered that my objection was to the anti-Semitism in the film and was told “Those people had ‘Schindler’s List,’ now this is our turn”… I was then told that he would be using the “Passion” discussion as an occasion to promote the film’s “positive message,” and that if I wouldn’t go along (by saying I liked the movie) my time on the show would be over.​

​

And that was that. I never heard from the guy again, but I know his show didn’t last long without me. I’m told he’d behaved in a manner (because it’s hearsay I won’t get into specifics) that disturbed the production staff during the taping of the “Passion” episode, and that my name had come up, which had me walking around more than a little paranoid for a few weeks; but nothing ever came of it.​

​

The job Robert is talking about:

​

Meanwhile, my second Blockbuster job led me to what seemed at the time like a stroke of great fortune: an older gentleman (who will remain nameless) came in asking if he could leave some flyers—turns out, he was starting up a film criticism show for local cable-access television and was looking for on-air talent. Store policy said I had to tell him no, but it said nothing about me volunteering for the position myself. After a set of meetings and conversations, I was hired to do the show along with this person and a female co-host. The resulting show was… what you’d expect from local cable, but it was exposure and a chance to work on my “craft,” such as it was. I was the colorful member of the team, the younger guy with the wild opinions and the deeper film knowledge. It was a fun time… while it lasted.​

Since I was ninja'd while looking for the specific post where this was covered in @Adamska's recent readthrough, I'll just link the relevant section here, along with a repeated thanks for pulling out choice bits of cringe for us to mock. Knowing Bobbo's tendency to paint his ideological opponents in the worst way possible, it's entirely likely that the event in question didn't happen anywhere close to how he described it, if it even happened at all. I would not be surprised if he got fired for going on a fedora-tipping euphoric rant about how Jesus totally doesn't real since that's about what I'd expect from the fatso.

Oh ok thanks. Honeslty how much of that conversation is true is debatable knowing Bob.

Holy shit, Bob has incredibly dog shit grammar. He should never start a sentence with but.

How did he managed to pass high school English?

The coof, like basically every viral pandemic in history, has evolutionary pressure on it to become less deadly over time, because a virus that kills its host isn't going to reproduce very well (HIV notwithstanding, but that's more of a case of a virus spreading in spite of its lethality).

HIV is a subacute disease. Although I've heard of acute HIV syndromes that can kill a human 2 weeks post-infection, this is obviously rare. The important thing is that, to maintain its line, the virus gets to spread to more than one victim before it kills its host, something that HIV, even at its most lethal, passes with flying colors.

I don't care whether going after AOC for owning a Tesla...

But I think Bobby cares. Tesla is the electric car for dudebro assholes.

 

[Grumpy Pickle Rick]

He can't distinguish between fiction and reality, and he doesn't really understand that people are, well, people. To him they are just characters, as real and unreal as those in movies. There's no issue with killing thousands of nameless mooks because they don't matter. The main characters matter, and surely he thinks he is one as well.
He has a very easy time dehumanising his enemies because he quite literally can't consider them human to begin with.

That seems to be a common thing with consumerist nerds like Bob.

I’ve seen a lot of fat neckbeards, ugly nerd girls and every other type of dork you could think of who have this idea that world is their stage and they’re the hero of the story. Seriously, these people think their life is some Disney movie or some capeshit show.

But what I don’t understand is where does this mindset come from? Why do these people think they’re the main character or rather why do they want to be the main character?

Any thoughts?

The answer is the word that gets thrown around this forum a lot, the word that starts with "A".

And bad parenting ensures the A-word thing to persist well into adulthood.

[Koby_Fish]

This can be expanded to blaming today's people for doing what their ancestors did. Hmm, what does this apply to?

In Bob's mind, this applies only to huwhite mayonnaise wasteland ghouls, who are all to blame for the past even when they weren't anywhere near it.

 

[Oliver Onions]

I know I'm late, but I want to talk about this one.

He says he'll never be behind the curve when it comes to social issues because he's not lazy, but he doesn't seem to realise he's behind the curve now. Not only the eugenics thing, but he still views politics as being the same as they were in the 1990s. As the years pass, he's going to get more and more outdated.

Even his view of video games is lodged somewhere around 2012, and that's an area he claims to be an expert in. I'm guessing if asked about PewDiePie, he'd say he's the guy who overreacts to horror games.

I'm also late, but I wanted to address one of the replies from Bob's dick-riders here, since if I do it on Twitter my account will almost certainly get yeeted:

I've got a couple for you, champ: How about the idea a lesbian shouldn't be forced to take dick just because it belongs to a guy claiming to be a woman? Or that women should be provided spaces, such as DV shelters, where men are not allowed, regardless of their 'gender identity'?

Maybe also that disagreeing with someone's opinions doesn't grant you the right to physically assault them or financially ruin them, no matter how abhorrent their views are to you. Yeah, that's one I really miss.

I'd throw in: you're not automatically a vessel of evil based upon the genitals and skin color you were born with, nor is the word of a woman to be automatically believed and grounds for ruining your life if they accuse you something. For good measure, let me also say that outsiders shouldn't be able to send the state after you and force your kids onto puberty blockers if they decide to act like the opposite gender for one goddamned day.

Honestly I could see it go either way.

I legit could envision this public access TV guy be a fundie who lost his shit because Bobby decided to let his fedora fly. There are still a lot of people like that out there in the world, and public access allows a lot of freaks and creeps on there. In this case both are at fault, because Bobby almost certainly acted like a cunt in his blog and then got passive-aggressive until the guy began screaming back and threatening him after firing him.

But I can also very easily see Bob release that same almost certainly euphoric rant about Passion, the bossman did not like the tone of the piece, especially since he probably did like Passion, and told Bob to take it down since he represents the show. Bob, being Bob, decided to dig his heels in because FUCK YOU I HAVE ODD AND SO MANY MENTAL DISEASES and the guy just dropped his ass.

Holy shit, Bob has incredibly dog shit grammar. He should never start a sentence with but.

How did he managed to pass high school English?

He went to a private catholic school that in his own words was only there to prevent the "Italian, Greek, and Irish hooligans from interacting with the somehow worse Black and Latino hooligans".

So he went to a trash fucking school and probably barely passed. More proof that Bob pretty much never read anything but Nintendo Power and Strategy Guides. I'm still iffy on him actually reading comics that aren't Nintendo related entirely because he never seemed like he read capeshit comics and only watched the cartoons.

He only seemed to start tarding on when the MCU shit began.

I feel like if Bob was making shit up, he would’ve came up with something crazier. His usage of terms like red flag makes it seem like he was trying to twist a pretty mundane story about getting fired into a traumatic experience. He’s bending over backwards to imply the rent-a-cop could’ve been some kind of crazed Christian vigilante with a murder van. That whole passage has the same vibe as “borderline gaslit”.

 

[cypocryphy]

Like most twitter lefties, Bob is only pro-military when it's convenient for them. Not that I really give a shit...personally, I'm opposed to military service. I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy.

 

[CharlesBarkley]

Bob is like a fat wind of autism, blowing only to whatever is deemed popular on Twitter. If AOC suddenly was like "Hey, Israel is really good and I love Gamergate." Bob would instantly flock over to her and be like "Agreed, there were some ASPECTS (random bullshit long ass paragraph that makes no sense) with Gamergate and that your viewpoints are valid but visa vie est ouevure the body of gaming culture and a plethora of difference in our pop-culture and women in gaming." or some other nonsensical simp bullshit.

He simply can not have one viewpoint he stands solid on if it's a "popular "woman telling him the reverse. It's probably the biggest proof that he is a literal virgin.
