Imagine being mad at the dude rather than his girlfriend ditching him like that.

[–] Jimmycrackcrack@lemmy.ml 46 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd be quite miffed at both but way too British to make a scene or likely even say anything.

I've had this happen to me as the guy supposedly stealing the girlfriend.

Except that until her boyfriend came looking for a fight, I had no idea she was with someone else and she made no indication as such.
And this was after going on several dates with her.

Suffice to say, I haven't spoken to her since. I'm not a cheater and I don't want to facilitate cheating.

And when I notified him of the fact I had no clue they were together, he was level headed enough to not be pissed at me anymore for what happened.

Him, I have actually seen and spoken to since then.

Either way, his face would remind you of the incident.

His latest video begins : "I am just outside your girlfriend's apartment ...;"

“To you or I it looks just like a regular girlfriends house. But there’s a secret.

Hidden behind this door your girlfriend has built a complete tank plane submarine rotating house simulator.

Why? -scoffs- why not? It’s just cool. And when I heard about it, I had to come and see it for myself.”

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 year ago

"I got an email asking whether I'd like to come and see it. raises eyebrow... Yes??!"

Why is he angry at him? She kissed him back rather than saying she has a boyfriend.

[–] MonkRome@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yeah, I always think it's odd when people blame the 3rd party in these situations. It makes me think this dude looked at his girlfriend like he looks at property and its the same as getting his car stolen. She made a choice.

[–] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago

Still a pretty shitty one. The blame is on her though

[–] MaxHardwood@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 year ago (3 children)

To be fair, the question wasn't about the girlfriend. They could hate both of them.

Like if he would refuse a kiss from Tom Scott himself.

4chan is a place where anonymous people can post whatever they want with no account.

As they say on their own website - "only a fool would take anything posted here as fact."

...I am beginning to realize that 2007 was 16 years ago. There's a whole generation of people who were born after 4chan had its heyday. People who don't even know what 4chan is.

So, uh, no. That's not him. 4chan just does that stuff.

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 72 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Hi, actual Tom Scott here

I can confirm that this 4chan post was indeed made by me and that the story of me making out with this guys girlfriend is also true. Chick had jugs like you wouldn't believe it. Bitch as loser just sat there and cried. Anyway, I'm off to Poland to film a video about a really interesting public toilet they have there.

Tom Scott out.

PS: Matt Gray is also here with me.

Hi it's me, Matt Grey. I also do youtube, sometimes.

[–] SpicyPeaSoup@kbin.social 17 points 1 year ago

The actual Tom Scott here. OP literally loves nothing more than to constantly deepthroat donkey dick.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 16 points 1 year ago
  • Will you date me?
  • Haha, sorry, Tom Scott stole my phone and typed that!
[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Guys... What if a video about an interesting Polish toilet actually comes out next week? Then we'd have really been pwned.

[–] MintyAnt@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago

Next video, he's standing in a volcanic wasteland or something

"I'm here at what is widely considered to be the harshest, most inhospitable, shit hole of the planet. This volcano is irrelevant because I'm talking about..."

He pulls up a laptop and points it at the screen

"...4chan"

There is no way in hell he would ever post to 4chan.

He made a long weepy post on his site how he would never use Reddit of all places, and how embarrassed he would be if "real world people" ever thought he was on it. He is exactly as insufferable and self righteous as you can imagine.

I hate that idk if I should believe this or not

[–] alt@sh.itjust.works 59 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I mean, why wouldn’t you? Why would an anonymous person on the internet lie for no reason?

[spoiler] Yes, it’s obviously fake. Also, I’m pretty sure Tom is gay, isn’t he? [/spoiler]

[–] balls_expert@lemmy.blahaj.zone 53 points 1 year ago (9 children)

I don't know, isn't he just British?

[–] MrLuemasG@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago (3 children)

There are two sexualities: straight and british

Yeah, you could easily make this up, and it doesn't feel like something Tom would do

[–] Ado@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Def doesn’t but he does also seem like a smooth mfer

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I've always wondered what his personal life is like. I really like that he tries to keep it separated – it's professional – but still.

[–] Heavybell@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (6 children)

He even said something on the lines of "This Tom Scott is a character. Based on the real one, but nonetheless." I forget his exact wording, or which video it was in.
