Don’t worry, everybody. It was just AI. What a relief! I almost thought this guy was a terrible person.

You dont really need AI for the correlation when you've got usernames being reused so heavily and consistently across numerous social platforms. Just a search engine.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 24 points 23 hours ago

Usernames and unusual phrases.

Don't make up weird shit like "gag a maggot" and use them both on your Facebook page and your porn account, dumbass.

Much of that slang is just old and none is made up by him. The consistency of application is something that should be noted though.

I know "gag a maggot" is at least +30 years old from when I was a kid. It could be older. I also grew up in NC, so the slang could have even been regional.

He's only 56. We're not talking about someone from Grampaw's good old days here.

I am in my 40's, so it's around the same era. All I am saying is that I have heard all of that slang before and it isn't made up. (I even occasionally use "gag a maggot", actually.)

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 22 hours ago

Maybe it's a Southern thing. It all sounds old-timey to me.

[-] remotelove@lemmy.ca 5 points 22 hours ago

That is what my kids call me... old-timey.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

Well all I can tell you is that I'm 47, from Indiana, and I spend a lot of time listening to music from the 1930s and 1940s and I don't say stuff like that.

[-] remotelove@lemmy.ca 4 points 21 hours ago

Yeah, so it's probably regional. My family from your part of the world doesn't use the colorful language I learned in NC. In many ways, it's it's more than just a dialect difference, it's an entirely different language. Idioms are much more common, or at least, more colorful.

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

Yeah, that alone isn't strong proof. But it is certainly corroborating alongside using the same usernames and other stuff.

[-] kaitco@lemmy.world 8 points 23 hours ago

Why are people commenting on porn sites?? Is there some major discussion going on?

[-] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 6 points 20 hours ago

This should be disqualifying even if you don't care about all the racism and sexism. Anyone who thinks commenting on a porn forum is a normal and good thing to do, especially talking about your personal life, is far too weird to be given power.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago

I wish I knew.

[-] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 4 points 20 hours ago

I think the phrases are interesting but pretty unnecessary. He just gave out a bunch of personal information about his life and the posts were way before anyone would have cared to do a hit job on him.
