The dude’s really wearing an ascot with a straight face like that, isn’t he?

captainlezbian@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 04:30 next collapse

I was going to make a joke about how that face doesnt look straight, but no, that man is unironically and heterosexually wearing an ascot without the slightest bit of flair, style, or panache. Like good gods man its an ascot, you gotta treat it like it’s a purple suit, you either wear the hell out of it or you put it back until you can

*Looking in the mirror after getting abandoned by another blind date who called him “shallow, bland, and aggravating” just before disappearing.*
“I have a good personality. An ascot is personality, right?”

captainlezbian@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 08:03 collapse

That implies he has a good ascot. He has an ok ascot at best

charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works on 11 Jul 06:10 collapse

I bet his voice sounds like Thurston Howell the 3rd.

(very old reference)

MuskyMelon@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 07:52 collapse

He calls himself an alpha king so he’s gonna sound like a bitch

charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works on 11 Jul 07:57 collapse

jesus fucking christ, how did these people gain control? I know there is plenty of answers but I don’t really want to hear them anymore. I want a final solution for the most stupid people who have the most control in this currently shit country

Iheartcheese@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 04:33 next collapse

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today on 11 Jul 05:38 collapse

fartographer@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 06:01 next collapse

But he’s wearing an ascot! Those are rich, dignified grays! You can tell he’s rich and cultured.

…Cuz of the ascot.

hitmyspot@aussie.zone on 11 Jul 06:59 next collapse

Isn’t that normal? I mean people can start greying in their 20s.

prex@aussie.zone on 11 Jul 10:39 collapse

Of all the things that make this guy so unpleasant, grey hair is waaay down the list.

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today on 12 Jul 06:39 collapse

considering his identiy/grift revolves around his looks its fair game, stop deflecting.

aeronmelon@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 05:36 next collapse

I dunno, Malaysia might like him.

psx_crab@lemmy.zip on 11 Jul 05:38 collapse

Cannot confirm, i want him send back.

RedPostItNote@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 18:20 collapse

Just return to sender his forehead when he arrives and send him back on the plane

Now I’m waiting for the “US embassador Nick Adams arrested in Malaysia for rape” headline.

fartographer@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 05:56 next collapse

I was gonna comment child sex trafficking, but pretty much the same idea.

SheeEttin@lemmy.zip on 11 Jul 11:21 collapse

Diplomatic immunity. They can’t arrest him, the most they can do is kick him out of the country.

“US ambassador Nick Adams missing during impromptu jungle trek in Malaysia"

In other unrelated news, locals emerge from jungle looking quite satisfied.

ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one on 11 Jul 05:48 next collapse

Sweet, fucking baby Jesus. This is truly the dumbest timeline.

FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 09:21 next collapse

Is there anything douchier than a guy who calls himself an alpha male?

neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works on 11 Jul 12:00 next collapse

A guy who writes a book about it?

Maven@lemmy.zip on 11 Jul 19:02 collapse

He wrote MULTIPLE books about it!

SGGeorwell@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 19:05 collapse

While wearing an ascot

prex@aussie.zone on 11 Jul 10:11 next collapse

This Australian can only apologise.
For shame.

InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 23:05 collapse

Just forge a latter from the prime minister inviting him over for a swim. We can all get over it.

Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de on 11 Jul 12:57 next collapse

He’s gonma abuse his Malaysian maid isn’t he?

Zron@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 16:14 next collapse

You mean the one he has now or the one the government will be paying for?

JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world on 13 Jul 04:52 collapse

Don’t be ridiculous. The maids here (we call them domestic helpers) are from other asean countries in the region. Plenty of local girls to go around for an expat paedo to grope. Foreigner worship and scoring an expat mate is a thing here.

mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.world on 11 Jul 18:05 next collapse

every news from the US in 2025 sounds like an episode of House of Cards. We’re not even done with the year yet man

  • Epstein file doesnt have anything

  • missing minutes from CCTV because the camera “reset” everytime.

  • a new NASA director who never had any space experiences. Dont worry though, the guy starred in an MTV series.

  • ICE. I guess no need to explain further: unjust, racist, shit tons of money.

  • denaturalization is a thing now , apparently.

and a lot more. The fucked up part is we are not even done with trump, he still has 3.5 years left !

finitebanjo@lemmy.world on 12 Jul 06:56 collapse

Not if we convert all 20 seats held by Republicans in the 2026 midterm elections. Then the orange man has to go away.

JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world on 13 Jul 04:53 collapse

Yeah, but a war is happening half a world away and my feels is hurt. I think I’ll sit it out in protest. Damn the parties for not fielding credible candidates!

Witchfire@lemmy.world on 12 Jul 06:48 next collapse

Alpha as in unstable and full of bugs? Yeah I can see that

finitebanjo@lemmy.world on 12 Jul 06:51 collapse

My prediction is this guy has active involvement in human trafficking and that this position enables that work.
