You know, if you're gonna try to do a purple fedora I guess it helps to be black, but when so much else is wrong...

Transitions are fine, just two things:

-So many nerds wear them, and they never go outside, so what's the point?

-They look really terrible in photos. Seeing some goon squinting through them on a a bright day with pasty skin doesn't really help.

Is a meat patty something or nothing?
I would like to introduce you all to Brendan Mitchell, aka wetmovie1.



I stumbled upon this guy by subscribing to a movie reviewer by the name of Shawn C. Phillips on YouTube, who is pretty awkward but actually seems like a super friendly, nice guy, and his videos just have a really positive energy to them. On paper he fits this thread, but it's hard for me to feel any sort of ill will towards him, really.

Brendan Mitchell (a friend of Shawn's who has his own channel) on the other hand...the only way I can think to describe him is that he's like an amalgamation of every single awkward person ever posted in this thread mixed with the obnoxious personality of Gorgeous George.

Let's just run down the list here. He's well into his thirties and lives with his mom, and in the years I've been subscribed to him (I know, I know), he has shown absolutely no intention of even considering finding his own place. And if you're wondering why that is, well, half of the content of his YouTube channel involves him going to various stores and "Hoarding up" on DVDs. That's what his videos are called: Hoarding Up.

Brendan works at a Blockbuster which apparently is still open. I've never worked at one myself, but I can't imagine the pay being great. Meanwhile, the average Hoarding Up video features him spending literally hundreds of dollars on DVDs, and half the time, it's useless poo poo he clearly doesn't need, like Roseanne the Complete 5th Season or Soul Surfer on blu-ray.

But that all applies to Shawn C. Phillips too. What really makes Brendan a candidate for this thread is his awkward as gently caress personality. This guy is absolutely convinced he is a WWE personality, and that his schtick is so god drat funny he can't believe he doesn't have his own show already. Let's lay down a few examples:

Here's a classic where Brendan documents his night of going out to get food with his mom, who is clearly sick of his poo poo. All the while he is trying so hard to be funny, constantly yelling and being WACKY and laughing at his own jokes. He also constantly talks about wanting to get drunk and asking his mom if they can get drunk later.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5PCka4KSmg

Speaking of which, here's him on New Year's Eve home alone with his mom pretending to be drunk and not really knowing how people act when they're drunk.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEQFf4w-s-Q

Can you believe how wild and crazy this guy is? I mean just look at some of these thumbnails!










In addition to the nasty rear end facial hair which, since he always has the camera on himself from a few inches away, we have the joy of seeing in extreme closeup, he also constantly wears baggy rear end shirts which sag all around him and make his disgusting as gently caress chest hair stick out of the neck of the shirt. He seems to be obsessed with how fat he is, too...he always seems to refer to himself as a "fat man," like "you know us fat guys gotta eat am I right?" when going to get fast food or some poo poo.

Some of the videos feature a "friend" of his Gabriel, and I have never before seen a more stunning case of repressed sexuality. Literally about 90% of their comments to each other involve them joking around about having gay sex. Seriously, they are in public in these videos making jokes about sucking each other's dicks. I had one video in mind as an example but it's really hard to find poo poo on his channel, but here's a random video with Gabriel where they make a joke about gay sex within the first 40 seconds:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjGqU-WWhWk

Some of these videos with Gabriel are called Out and About, and thankfully, there is an Out and about : The Movie! Yes, this would be a feature length movie which is just Brendan walking around with Gabriel, except this time they go to Vegas! This poo poo was actually sold on DVD for about $30 if I recall correctly. Presumably nobody loving bought it because within a few months it was stuck up on YouTube on his official channel.

And finally...here's Brendan walking around a furniture store singing with his big rear end cargo pants and tucked in oversized t-shirt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6yNIjJo_rc

This a goldmine. The Las Vegas video is a slog, but so often it is incredible. The constant "joking" about prostitution is terribly sad.

I received a promo for a band, for review, and this is what they sent as one of the band pictures




The gut/crotch (grotch?) on that dude...

EDIT: I have a question about hats.
Here in the Netherlands I don't see them so much as nerdy things, but rather as a jock/douchebag accessory (i.e. they don't aim for "class", m'lady, but rather for Justin Timberlake). Is it a regional thing, or do US goons just pick the nerd fedora users and ignore the douches?

New fun thing to look for instead of fedoras and transitions.

How many wrist bands are in that picture?

I believe we can count humungous watch bands as well.

I'm up to 9, but can't see one forearm, the assumption is his entire right arm is covered in wrist bands

I love how he looks like some band was taking a promo shot and he just wandered in and shoved himself into the photo. That nerd on the back is pretty awkward too.

I counted 12 wrist thingamajicks + one elbowpad(?)

What amuses me is that he has a great GPA and qualifications and experience but because he's completely socially braindead no one he sends that to is going to actually read them. I mean, maybe someone might glance at them as the resume is being passed around the office to be ridiculed. But at that point it's much too late. Only one chance for a first impression and all that.

Seriously, your qualifications don't mean poo poo if you have no social skills.
