The earthworm Jim edit is impeccable. Bravo

I don’t think that’s an earth worm.

Earthworm Jim's alt-right idiot cousin, Brainworm Bob.

[+] [email protected] -7 points 2 months ago (3 children)

If he is alt-right why was he a Democrat?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

To try to get Democrats to vote for him when he split out to strengthen Trump's chances. He was relying on his name, but his statements and opinions kept getting in the way and making it obvious what he really was.

Because he was

How else you gunna grift? Edit: Never understood how he’d have D appeal tho w/o some straight up lies

I’m realizing how hard it is to detect sarcasm in comments nowadays w/o the /s tag

Edit: also I think the nuance of your comment is lost on too many, or just offending the bots

Do yourself a favour and don't look up the guy who thought up earthworm Jim.

Tap for spoiler

He tries to suck up to the "christian conservative" crowd. He even was on Steven Crowder's show.

I thought it added another layer to shitpost and further tied it together.

But yeah, fuck Doug TenNapel too, even if I did enjoy those games.

I thought the base graphic looked like a new game, or something, so I checked on youtube. Then, I stumbled on the Crowder interview.

You did really good with the meme. But I wasn't prepared for... that...

Well, now I'm sad. The Neverhood and Earthworm Jim were fond childhood memories.

If I've learned anything from Dan Aykroid is that we shouldn't let the cringe of the creators ruin our enjoyment of their works.

Roiland Jackson R Kell any Tarantino movie.

Lovecraft, Rowling

Steven Crowder is still going? I thought there was controversy of him cheating on his wife, and he lost viewers as a result and facing financial ruin?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

It's actually really hard for the right-wing grifters to face any consequences for their behavior. Just look at Andrew Tate.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

If only anyone actually held to those morals they claim to uphold.

Dementia Don and Brain Worm Bob. What a team.

Don't forget JD Couchfucker.
