He's supposed to be this big brained genius and this is the way he approaches humor? This is the way he talks?
I mean fuck SNL, but he has the chance to do a comedy skit to an audience of milions and the best he could come up with is to flash people? I knew he wasn't funny, but god damn that's pathetic.
He's a fucking billionaire with all the time in the world. If he wasn't so fucking arrogant, he could hire a comedy writer to coach him. He could take lessons. He could buy any number of books. Hell, he could go on YouTube and watch a video for free.
I dunno where I'm going with this, but I have a complicated relationship with IQ and genius and what that looks like in a person, so to see this creatively bankrupt person pass himself as this Tony Stark witty genius feels a little jokerfying.
This has nothing to do with this except the whole "the worst of realistic and gritty" fiction enjoyers, but it reminded me of the Star Citizen forum post from near the beginning of the grift where
CW:SA
someone argued that it'd realistic if space pirates SA'd their victims, and that's why getting SA'd should be a mechanic in the game
I'm sure they weren't suggesting that for any other reason
I vaguely remember that, but the one that was actually funny (because those other two are more horrifying) was the guy who suggested you could drain your cargo hold of air if you were carrying slaves to avoid detection.
"Move along Star Citizen, we suspected you may have been smuggling slaves, but I see you only have an ordinary load of fresh corpses."
These people are always telling on themselves. We make games unrealistic so they're fun. We make movies unrealistic so they're entertaining. You absolutely do not want to play a game where you're just curled up in a ball in a wet trench trying not to die during a 72 hour artillery barrage. It would be "muh realistic gritty," but completely boring. People can't even handle getting spawn camped.
Sexual violence isn't fun. It's not something people should get entertainment out of. And it's always directed towards women when it's in games (despite SV happening to men in war). Wanting it in your video game puts up a giant red flag about what you find enjoyable.

This relative checks so many terrible boxes for things you hate in gaming and fiction that I wonder if he was created in a lab just to torment you.
I wish folks like that would get isekai'd into their treat worlds only to discover that 'realism' would utterly fuck them up.

edit: I guess we have a new filter now, good.
