the search results for "subway dr disrespect" only turn up this tweet, which makes me think this isn't real

[–] GunslingerSky@hexbear.net 23 points 3 months ago

The "news network's" profile has parody in the description

[–] Palacegalleryratio@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Also I don’t think subway do kids meals.

[–] Tunnelvision@hexbear.net 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Believe it or not they do or at least used to. It had a 3inch sub with a cookie I believe? Idk I haven’t eaten there is YEARS

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

God dammit well that's what I get for posting at 4 AM when I should have already gone to sleep. Leaving it up because it's funny.

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 35 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (6 children)

I had never heard of this guy until this all came out. Is he a post-lockdown phenomenon? Or is it that I'm old?

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 33 points 3 months ago

Nah we're just old. I know about him just because of my friend that watches a bunch of streamers. Apparently he has been a thing for a while.

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 21 points 3 months ago

He was around pre-lockdown, but has almost always had the kind of audience you'd expect chud streamers to have.

[–] Cummunism@hexbear.net 20 points 3 months ago (2 children)

he was a twitch streamer, so if you arent like 15 years old you probably havent heard of him.

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 16 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I heard of him from a friend in his 40s lol

[–] Cummunism@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago

there will certainly be outliers haha. i have a friend in his late 30s who loves watching reaction videos. like goddamn, just watch the show yourself.

[–] Speaker@hexbear.net 14 points 3 months ago

And if you are 15 years old, probably don't open any Twitch messages from him.

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 15 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Funny enough I am 95% sure that one of our site taglines is a quote from one of this dude's streams (the one about shungite rocks)

[–] Gay_Tomato@hexbear.net 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The shungite copypasta is from him. I think it was from his last twitch stream were he got a text message about this (but we didn't know at the time) and got banned afterwards.

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

Ah, I know that one! Boo!

[–] GenXen@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago

I'm too old to get into streamers too but what really blows me away is that a guy with an audience of 15 year olds is himself old enough statistically to have at least one colonoscopy by now.

[–] Darth_Reagan@hexbear.net 7 points 3 months ago

I think he has been on the platform for a while

[–] Mokey@hexbear.net 29 points 3 months ago (4 children)

Subway is gross and the only thing i know about subway is that eating the sandwichs make you a pedophile

[–] Yor@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago (3 children)

they actually had some pretty good vegan options at one point, but now they don't seem to be available anywhere around me lol

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 10 points 3 months ago

They recently brought back some solid vegan options near me. And they're open very late when I'm off work, so it's an option

[–] Angel@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago

If you're in the UK or elsewhere, you probably have better luck than I do in the states.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

Their vegan options suck just from looking at their menu. Dunno how good they used to be, because the last time I ate at Subway was so long ago that I wasn't even im-vegan yet, lmao.

[–] huf@hexbear.net 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

then their marketing is working. i'm not sure where they're going with this, but they are getting the message across

[–] Mokey@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago

True but i dont want a sandeich that makes you attracted to children personally who is the target audience for this...? ....gamers...?

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The current thing about chipotle skimping on portions being such a big deal is funny to me because that was how every local subway around me has been run since forever.

[–] Tabitha@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

I have no idea why chipotle is popular, all of their competitors (I mean like at least 5 of them) taste better and give better portions and are cheaper.

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 2 points 3 months ago

I really liked eating their sandwichs when I was a kid BibleThump

[–] LGOrcStreetSamurai@hexbear.net 17 points 3 months ago

"Teriyaki Terror" sounds like punk band playing off the idea of "Yellow Peril" and i'm kinda feeling it.

[–] john_browns_beard@hexbear.net 14 points 3 months ago

They need to shut Subway down until we can figure out what's going on

[–] Cummunism@hexbear.net 14 points 3 months ago

jfc, theyll give a sponsor deal to anybody these days. only the terminally online know who he is.

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 14 points 3 months ago

This is from something called "Victory News Network" which claims to be parody in it's bio. Looking at its other stories... Yeah...

[–] viva_la_juche@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago

Imagine being the next person to take this job and your family preemptively disowns you

[–] crispy_lol@hexbear.net 12 points 3 months ago

KIDS MEALS AVAILABLE

[–] Tabitha@hexbear.net 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

every single time a streamer has a restaurant menu special, it's some rando I've never heard of

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago

I have been informed it is fake. I posted this at like 4AM after binge drinking to numb myself to the fact the planet is on fire and we are faced with a choice between two fascists with their brains dribbling out of their ears to lead the most powerful empire in human history.

[–] FnordPrefect@hexbear.net 8 points 3 months ago

If I had a nickel for every time that's happened...

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

can you imagine being a subway franchisee? just dutifully kicking up your fees while buying those marked up low quality supplies from central authority.

meanwhile, all they ever do is print coupons that screw you on your end and use your fees to hire pedophiles as brand ambassadors, while raking in big executive salaries and profits.

lmao, get rekt.

[–] LENINSGHOSTFACEKILLA@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago

when will they learn
