A fictional story about a husband/father being cruel to his family until they leave doesnât exactly seem like fun entertainment to me đ
4chanâs idea of a joke tends to involve some kind of suffering or cruelty, I donât really get the appeal. It shows up on my feed and I canât help but think âsomeone wants to read this sort of thingâŠ?â
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
Itâs 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.
Yeah, I understand that itâs a subversion of whatâs expected, itâs just also depressing
âThe joke is that you thought it was just a weird interaction with strangers, but heâs actually being shitty father and abusive husband!â doesnât really work for me đ€·đ» I get why itâs funny to other people, I just canât 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. Itâs just kinda depressing to me :/
May I ask why youâre on greentext? Itâs literally just 4chan screenshots and if you know that kind of humor doesnât sit well with you then it might be better to avoid it.
Cant say I understand. Doesnât really seem healthy to soak in that kinda cesspool, but everyoneâs gotta live their own life and make their own decisions I suppose
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 heâs 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.
Ehhh, certainly that video was a bleak point but if you scope out his latest videos you can see he sounds like heâs 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 itâs a small, consistent community that watches his stuff. So heâs found a little niche for himself.

Did not see the twist at the end coming
Yeah I never figured they would hook up and live happily ever after.
Sometimes happily ever after comes from stopping hooking up. There is a lot of wisdom in these greentexts.
Anon processes his divorce.
4chan is depressing
How is that your takeaway from this entertaining fabrication?
You forgot to mention that the fabrication is gay
How is it gay if he has wife and children?
Thatâs 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.

But we live in a society
Weâre not soaking in the cesspool, just gently dipping our toes in it.
blowing a few bubbles every now and thenâŠ
I peed in it :3
Real big âLaphroaig 10â energy.

Is the next post a picture of Chris Benoit?, fucking hell.
Thereâs no way this guy didnât hit her when she threatened to leave.
donât worry, itâs not real
I was aware.
Itâd feel like a plot hole if that guy didnât beat the shit out of his wife
