…continued

Vance doesn’t read books or book summaries, he reads online book discussions to learn what his opinions should be

Keeps a hot pack under his pillow to keep both sides warm

Eats his hotdogs center-out

Audibly vocalizes “mmmmmmm” every time he steps into a school

Prefers his curly fries steamed

He feeds his fingernail clippings to squirrels

He tips with those fake $100 bill religious tracts

He stands to the left on the peoplemover in the airport

He prefers his socks sweaty and "crunchy"

He begins most conversations with "don't you know who I am?"

He does that thing when he talks where he gets too close and starts rubbing your shoulder

I know most of these are just silly digs for the memes, but I could 100% see prince couchfucker doing this and thinking in his mind that he actually did the server a favor.

He uses metal utensils on teflon non-stick pots and pans, then immediately runs them under cold tap water because finds the sizzle soothing

He orders a salad with the dressing on the side and eats everything but the lettuce

He puts quick-dry clothes in the wash on HOT and leaves them in the dryer for an hour on maximum temperature

He waits until it's his turn to order to start looking at the menu when dining at fast food joints

He showers everywhere, even at home, in a bathing suit because even he thinks it's totally gay if he sees any male's genitals...even his own

He goes to a fancy steakhouse, orders a filet mignon well done, and dips it in ketchup packets he brought in his pocket

Whenever he plays Cards Against Humanity, every round he says "I don't get it"

He never swallows fruit seeds because he will argue to the death that the seeds will grow inside you. Same with chewing gum and takes 5-7 years to digest it

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 29 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm amazed by how weird he can be. Even talking about his own family, he makes it weird.

[–] trek32@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He clarified that he does love his wife, despite her not being white.

It's amazing how he finds ways to create a bigger hole for himself out of softball questions raised by friendly media outlets. Imagine the stuff he would say if he sat for interviews with real journalists trying to press him on the wacko stuff he's said and his unpopular policy positions as a candidate.

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

His whole thing about his Indian mother-in-law yesterday was weird, too.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago

The Instagram one is literally me tho. Fuck downloading a meta app and the only time I'm on there is if it's linked in something I'm reading

[–] johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago (2 children)

"Incel" is really losing its meaning if you have "married incels". We probably need a different word for "people who have abhorrent views about women"

[–] veganpizza69@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Traditionalists is the usual term. Paleoconservatives is also a known term.

[–] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Reactionaries is my preferred term for them.

[–] LANIK2000@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I thought it was "chauvinist"?

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He's definitely wearing eyeliner, right?

[–] veganpizza69@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

I think some call it "guyliner".

Since he's doing it, he knows. It's probably best to gloss over it. I expect that he wants to tell some "war stories" about wearing eyeliner in the Iraqi desert or something like that.

Everyone knows death metal is best enjoyed at 1.5x, get it together Vance.

[–] officermike@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Whoa, hold your speedy little horses buddy. Nightcore is played at 1.35x. You dare go faster?

[–] lettruthout@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

There's almost no point in making up stuff like this because his real-life antics are plenty weird.

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

He's a total fart sniffer. I mean, look at his expression. He's clearly sniffing someone's farts in this image.

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

OK death metal at half speed does seem kinda neat... and I'm not a death metal guy. Why doesn't spotify have speed options?!

[–] Baguette@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Because they're too busy adding stupid features like music clips and smart shuffle

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Smart shuffle is the fucking worst, took me a minute to figure out why shit was on Playlists that I never heard before.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

is there a template for this, but without photoshopped eyeliner?

[–] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Yeah, he doesn't wear wings like that.

[–] banner80@fedia.io 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)
[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago

ah damn i was hoping to make a "make your own vance" with different eyeliner styles you could drag and drop like a dressup doll game

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)
[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He’s got a partial epicanthic fold, that’s just his eye

[–] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No there's definitely an eyeliner wing in that pic.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Idk, I zoomed in super closely and I honestly don’t think so. The darker area corresponds exactly to where his eyelid meets his cheek. I think he’s potentially wearing eyeliner, just not wings

[–] Orbituary@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Those are skin folds, not wings.

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I would totally believe those are all real but does anyone have a source?

[–] Pantsofmagic@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This guy is weird as hell but let's not forget about how bad Palin was.

[–] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I don't know if it still counts as modern times, but there was something up with Dick Cheney.

[–] Got_Bent@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Well I mean, at least the mustard isn't DIJON!

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Great pic. I also can't tell if these are real, not real, or even some real. That's the problem.

I would also say I don't care if he puts cherries on a pizza, but if the other side can care so much about what mustard Obama used, I guess this is ok.

[–] Persen@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

What's wrong with using instagram on desktop, you at least have privacy, as the app isn't required.

[–] benignintervention@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

What's the methodology for Netflix in alphabetical order? Do categories count? Action then comedy? Movies then tv shows? Do episode titles fall under each series, do they carry the series title first then the episode title, or is it a global alphabetical?
