I'm hoping he faked his death for a new documentary about what happens when everyone thinks a discredited documentary director dies of cancer.

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 34 points 6 months ago

We should work as hard in our dedication to the bit.

Also - Andy Kaufman needs to show himself already.

#IWantToBelieve

There's a scene in Super Size Me where he goes to his doctor and finds out he has liver damage, and the documentary presents this as if the McDonald's did that to him when he was actually just a massive alcoholic

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 37 points 6 months ago

to be honest if you told me I had to eat Wcbonalbs for a significant period of time, I'd probably also develop coincidental liver damage from the depression the food would give me.

[-] Tachanka@hexbear.net 21 points 6 months ago

Enjoy how they bury the SA or omit it entirely in all of these articles. Hope the cancer was painful fucko.

Going into a comment section on the bear website to make borgar joke only to find out the borgar documentary guy is a sex criminal

what-the-hell

Dreaming up a guy who hates him because he slandered mcdonalds and not the sa stuff.

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 44 points 6 months ago

That's probably a lot of guys tbh kiryu-pain

[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 33 points 6 months ago

The guy's name? Ronald Mcdonald.

[-] QuietCupcake@hexbear.net 40 points 6 months ago

This is a bit tangential, but actually the original actor (or one of the earliest major ones) who played Ronald McDonald is now a vegan and hates what he did for the McDonalds corporation. Even refers to it as fascist food.

"I want to apologize for participating in helping to brainwash North America's young people into doing something that I know now to be contrary to the purpose of life."

honestly seems like this deserves its own post because it's so absurdly hilarious and awesome

[-] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 15 points 6 months ago

Not to downplay your point, but here's an interview with Giuliano. He only played the character in a regional spot for a year and a half.

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 13 points 6 months ago

Couldn't help but think of that guy when watching the Ghoul parts of the Fallout show, corporate spokesman/mascots turning against the corporation is some real shit

[-] booty@hexbear.net 10 points 6 months ago

fash food michael-laugh i love it

[-] AlicePraxis@hexbear.net 34 points 6 months ago

I didn't know about that, apparently he just told on himself completely unprompted? Guess he was trying to get ahead of the story after MeToo became a thing, but it's awfully bold of him to assume he was even famous enough for any accusations to draw attention.

[-] Des@hexbear.net 51 points 6 months ago

i hate this guy for entirely personal reasons i can't go into. rest in piss packwatch

[-] Elon_Musk@hexbear.net 37 points 6 months ago

You're not going to get another chance. Tell us.

[-] Des@hexbear.net 28 points 6 months ago

waaay too dox maybe one day once everyone forgets on a different account

[-] RION@hexbear.net 50 points 6 months ago

Throwback to how he conveniently didn't mention his advanced alcoholism during Super Size Me and so when the doctor says "you have the liver of an alcoholic" it's taken as a damning health impact of the McDonald's rather than, you know, his DRINKING PROBLEM

[-] peeonyou@hexbear.net 22 points 6 months ago

imaging being known for having eaten trash food for a month straight.. that is what people know you for if they remember you

i'd rather not be remembered than be remembered for that

[-] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 16 points 6 months ago

Oh I totally forgot about that guy.

[-] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 14 points 6 months ago

Was it liver cancer?
