No other reason than it would be funny. Esp having dead air followed by uncontrollable laughter and Matt getting mad at how useless his Call of Cthulhu character is.

      My joke was purely based on him leaving chapo. There's allegations of him grooming a teenage girl, that the other person mentioned, but that could well be a 4chan "troll". It was a brand new anonymous account, instantly booster by a bunch of people.

        claimed to be a big fan of Virgil in 2013 before he was famous for anything

        smells like the Beatnik smear replayed

          Yes, believe women is something you do when a real person is confirmed to even exist

            Eh, until it resolves in some way, better to withhold judgments

              That's what I'll do. Very easy considering I know him as guy from a podcast he's no longer on.

              Yeah that's what I mean, it's not worth really engaging with until an actual person makes an accusation.

        Its commical and sad for you to say that because the alleged victim literally states in their thread how scared they were to come out because of the fear of being called a 4channer or a conservative.

          What harm am I doing by saying on a different forum that the anonymous account might not belong to a real person?

            The same harm anyone could be doing by saying that a possible victim of grooming is a liar?

            Virtually everyone here is an anonymous account, and a lot are fans of Virgil.

            You really can't see why a victim of sexual abuse would choose to remain anonymous?

                Why? Because they followed an edgy twitter account created in may, when twitter recommends to follow a bunch of bullshit accounts the moment you create a new one?

                Do you think you bursted their secret identity, due to a follow, when that "real account" is less than a month old?

                Give me your twitte account and I can probably deconstruct something similar by using your followers.

      Was accused of sexually harassing a teenage girl(s) I believe. Saw a thread about it on Twitter but I could be wrong

    Have a new co-host named Virgil Tejas. He sounds exactly the same. He fits the same numbers wonk niche. If he doesn't look identical, when they livestream they put him in a black wig and glasses.

    It'd be like Being John Malkovich.
