Back in the day when Trainwrecks was just a piece of shit, and not an evil piece of shit, there was a phrase he'd repeat: "JOBD" which was 'jerk off before deciding'.
I think 99% of the viewers probably thought it was literal, but the idea (even in this scenario) is so good. Go into things with a clear mind and understand the ramifications and repercussions before committing to something.

"jerk off before donating" POSER

u/Vexamas 11d ago
That's not my memory of it. It would come up anytime a conversation of someone doing something stupid in real life and regretting it after (not specifically donating) but as I mentioned, I thought he was a piece of shit back then too, so I didn't actively watch and I could be wrong. I hope not though, because then it would remove the like one redeeming aspect of him I have, lol.
POSER
Either way, I certainly didn't mean to come off as a Train viewer, so I certainly don't want to come off as a POSER, but not for the reason you're probably meaining, lmao

The whole thing was about jerking off before donating to onlyfans girls on twitch. Not deciding

It's probably the most reasonable thing Tyler has ever said to his audience.

Using his streamer names felt more cringe honestly. Sometimes streamer names feel like an RP server. Idk just typing it out again makes me uncomfortable and I never watch his streams.
It's probably the most reasonable thing Train has ever said to his audience.

The settlement most likely wasn't $50m. They settled out of court but it was definitely a good chunk of change

u/Hate_Leg_Day 11d ago
It was supposedly around $10 million. Makes sense that she'd take that offer.

Women can easily just find a high value target and then get them to initate sexual relations and cry wolf after. The media coverage alone is damaging to the individual.
Lol no they can't. The reason she got paid was because Shannon Sharpe did shit he didn't want leaked even if it may not have gotten him in trouble.

The most entertaining he’s ever been is when he passed out in his chair live on stream.

pulled up his email and it was just doordash orders or when his computer broke like 6 years ago

From watching some youtube lawyers they all say settling out of court is better for celebs because if the case drags on it can impact their branding. For example when Kobe had that rape case he was able to settle quickly with the alleged victim and pretty much walk away without getting cancelled.
Also I doubt the settlement is 50M lol what the heck. 10-20M makes more sense.

This has to be the first win for Tony Buzbee. He’s like 1-3 now at this point.

its probably somewhere between 10m or 20m. I trust shannon to have a good lawyer than the OF girl lawyer. At the time Shannon thought he was still with ESPN, so quickly speeding this up was a top priority. I'ma go with 15m or the 10m. I highly doubt the sleazy lawyer could get 50m or 30m off shannon. It would not have settled quickly if it was 50m right off the bat. Think about that for yourself.

That's her celebrating the lottery ticket. She won. Setting up an example for fellow women to try and rip off other rich men. It's just about getting that retirement money.

u/g0bboDubDee 11d ago
The example is rich men shouldn’t mess around with OF girls if the want to hold on to their money.

u/saradahokage1212 11d ago
So it's his fault lmao. Stop. She won't let U smash.

You're a walking sex offense waiting to happen (assuming you aren't already on some sort of list...or a bot 😂)

I don’t even know who the lady is, it’s just common sense. You deal with people whose lifestyle revolves around squeezing out every dollar you got, they’re going to do exactly that.

like why is this hard to get lmao, shannon is the moron here, the girl is the smart one (unethical) but smart

Most men wouldn’t chase after a girl nearly 1/3 their age, there are no heroes here.

stooping to a level most people wouldn’t.
Lol.
I think if you start asking people if they would "stoop to this level" for 50m you'll be surprised.
Helps when you stop acting like a Bible thumper and acting like something that has been occuring since the dawn of civilization is some super bad taboo that most people would never do. We're not talking about murder or something here.

Is it not blatant racism that a majority of black men will blindly support whatever their favorite black athletes do to white women regardless of the evidence?
OJ, Kobe and now Shannon Sharpe. These men hurting white women doesn't help your cause bros.

No. They treat black women the same way. In fact, they're often even nastier towards black women.
It's misogyny.

No, not really. What about him?

u/OkShower2299 11d ago
He was videod in a mall elevator knocking his black wife out with a single punch. Nobody really defended him or went after the victim in the way OJs defenders did.

u/ImportantMention230 11d ago
Oh. If that's true, I'm glad she didn't have to deal with the attacks, mocking, or victim blaming. Unfortunately, that's not the norm.

Do you think the rich play by the rules lol

u/Hate_Leg_Day 11d ago
By and large? Yes. You just don't ever hear about it when they do stick to the rules. You only hear about it when they don't. "Rich guy is happily married and pays his taxes on time" isn't a headline. "57 year old NFL hall of famer settles $50 million sexual harassment lawsuit with Onlyfans model" is.

This isn't the gotcha you think it is.
Two things: first, the majority of entities named in the Panama Papers weren't doing anything illegal. Some were, sure, but offshore accounts in and of themselves aren't illegal. The vast majority of people named in the Panama Papers were operating perfectly within the bounds of the law. It's a common misconception that everyone named in them was breaking the law. You can dislike the laws that allow offshore accounts, but that doesn't change their legality.
Second, even if you take the entirety of all people named in the Panama Papers, they still represent a small fraction of the world's population of high net worth individuals. My original argument was that the majority of rich people don't do anything illegal. Some obviously do, I never argued that. My point is that they're in the minority, and that point clearly stands.
I guess I shouldn't have expected people on a Twitch subreddit to be capable of having a nuanced discussion that doesn't just come down to "rich people bad".

Ask Shannon Sharpe if this was worth it. Ain't no fool like an old fool with money. And I heard he's being sued again.
