Did not see the twist at the end coming

Yeah I never figured they would hook up and live happily ever after.

Buddahriffic 2 weeks ago

Sometimes happily ever after comes from stopping hooking up. There is a lot of wisdom in these greentexts.

4chan is depressing

How is that your takeaway from this entertaining fabrication?

B312 2 weeks ago

You forgot to mention that the fabrication is gay

How is it gay if he has wife and children?

sidekickplayah 2 weeks ago

That’s the fake part. The gay part is: why is he lifting? Wanna look good for the men or some other gay shit?

He left her for another man (his spotter)

And also fake.

A fictional story about a husband/father being cruel to his family until they leave doesn’t exactly seem like fun entertainment to me 😅

4chan’s idea of a joke tends to involve some kind of suffering or cruelty, I don’t really get the appeal. It shows up on my feed and I can’t help but think “someone wants to read this sort of thing…?”

At least the one about the lady pissing herself and jumping in a canal or whatever was kinda silly and just a story about doing something dumb

It’s creative writing with a subversion of expectations. You expect anon to be in a public gym with a random uncontrolled child, not at home with his own child. You side with him until the very end. The whiplash is the joke, not child cruelty.

Cris 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I understand that it’s a subversion of what’s expected, it’s just also depressing

“The joke is that you thought it was just a weird interaction with strangers, but he’s actually being shitty father and abusive husband!” doesn’t really work for me 🤷🏻 I get why it’s funny to other people, I just can’t really relate, and so much of 4chan humor has that same shared thread of being an asshole, life being a bleak existence, or making up a strawman to attack a particular population. It’s just kinda depressing to me :/

May I ask why you’re on greentext? It’s literally just 4chan screenshots and if you know that kind of humor doesn’t sit well with you then it might be better to avoid it.

If it’s not for you you can just block it

Cant say I understand. Doesn’t really seem healthy to soak in that kinda cesspool, but everyone’s gotta live their own life and make their own decisions I suppose

But we live in a society

We’re not soaking in the cesspool, just gently dipping our toes in it.

Real big ‘Laphroaig 10’ energy.

Fuck, that channel is so depressing.
Starts out as him and his wife sampling food at restaurants, pivots to them sampling whisky, then him sampling whisky alone, then the famous video where his wife leaves while he reviews the Laphroaig.
And he’s been making a video sampling a new bottle of whisky basically every day for the past 8 years, most videos getting fewer than 100 views.

mriormro 2 weeks ago

Ehhh, certainly that video was a bleak point but if you scope out his latest videos you can see he sounds like he’s in a better place and occasionally brings on a friend or two to happily review together.

As to his low view count: it seems like it’s a small, consistent community that watches his stuff. So he’s found a little niche for himself.

Is the next post a picture of Chris Benoit?, fucking hell.

There’s no way this guy didn’t hit her when she threatened to leave.

It’d feel like a plot hole if that guy didn’t beat the shit out of his wife
