Imagine being mad at the dude rather than his girlfriend ditching him like that.

My father used to love saying: “It takes two to tango”
Did your mom cheat a lot?
He used it in the context that whenever either me or my brother complained to him about something, it was because both parties usually were guilty of starting shit and just one of us was complaining about it.

I’d be quite miffed at both but way too British to make a scene or likely even say anything.
I’ve had this happen to me as the guy supposedly stealing the girlfriend.
Except that until her boyfriend came looking for a fight, I had no idea she was with someone else and she made no indication as such.
And this was after going on several dates with her.Suffice to say, I haven’t spoken to her since. I’m not a cheater and I don’t want to facilitate cheating.
And when I notified him of the fact I had no clue they were together, he was level headed enough to not be pissed at me anymore for what happened.
Him, I have actually seen and spoken to since then.
This is how two adults act.
The good ending.
Either way, his face would remind you of the incident.
A tale as old as time
I suspect it was a chance of liberation for the girl that she needed to act on. Kudos, it appears to have worked for her and I hope she’s doing better now.
My friend, it’s a greentext which means it’s entirely and unequivocally real. Your assessment is correct.
Why is he angry at him? She kissed him back rather than saying she has a boyfriend.
Yeah, I always think it’s odd when people blame the 3rd party in these situations. It makes me think this dude looked at his girlfriend like he looks at property and its the same as getting his car stolen. She made a choice.
Still a pretty shitty one. The blame is on her though
To be fair, the question wasn’t about the girlfriend. They could hate both of them.
Y she kiss back doe
She from and for the streets
Because the guy is actually a POS as he considered her “his” as though she is property, so Tom “stole” her.
Only an emotionally mature person realizes it takes 2 to cheat.
Will never not be amazed at the life of anon away from the keyboard
Or having a girlfriend
If Anon from 4chan has a girlfriend then I pity the girlfriend.

Is this his real response?
4chan is a place where anonymous people can post whatever they want with no account.
As they say on their own website - “only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.”
…I am beginning to realize that 2007 was 16 years ago. There’s a whole generation of people who were born after 4chan had its heyday. People who don’t even know what 4chan is.
So, uh, no. That’s not him. 4chan just does that stuff.
Hi, actual Tom Scott here
I can confirm that this 4chan post was indeed made by me and that the story of me making out with this guys girlfriend is also true. Chick had jugs like you wouldn’t believe it. Bitch as loser just sat there and cried. Anyway, I’m off to Poland to film a video about a really interesting public toilet they have there.
Tom Scott out.
PS: Matt Gray is also here with me.
Hi it’s me, Matt Grey. I also do youtube, sometimes.
The actual Tom Scott here. OP literally loves nothing more than to constantly deepthroat donkey dick.
Guys… What if a video about an interesting Polish toilet actually comes out next week? Then we’d have really been pwned.
Next video, he’s standing in a volcanic wasteland or something
“I’m here at what is widely considered to be the harshest, most inhospitable, shit hole of the planet. This volcano is irrelevant because I’m talking about…”
He pulls up a laptop and points it at the screen
“…4chan”
It’s a hacker, right?
The person claiming to be Tom Scott? No, but 4chan is.
I particularly love the random “typical left leaning holier than thou type” dig 😂 Like, how can any normal person be so hung up on someone else’s political leaning that has nothing to do with the content they put out or even the context of the thread
Sounds like him. He doesn’t have a subreddit for fairly similar reasons.
It’s probably his response copied from someplace else. Notice the holidays bit that doesnt fit the context.
Yea but it was posted on Dec 21st

I don’t think it was Tom. That sentence starting with “While” is not a complete sentence, which is suspicious because Tom is very precise with his language and is a nerd about grammar (he has made videos about linguistics). There are also a few other questionable grammar choices like the comma after “though” (I think there should either be no comma, or a comma both before and after?) Also, the comma after “thanks and regards” either needs to be followed by an “and” or it should have been replaced by a period or exclamation point.
I hate that idk if I should believe this or not
I mean, why wouldn’t you? Why would an anonymous person on the internet lie for no reason?
[spoiler] Yes, it’s obviously fake. Also, I’m pretty sure Tom is gay, isn’t he? [/spoiler]
It was mostly a joke. I have no idea if he’s gay, I just know he makes amazing videos
Pretty sure he’s mentioned female partners before. I think so, anyway.
I don’t have any info on this to be honest, but he does not give off het vibes at all. Gay? Aro? Ace? Standard English repressed? Idk, any of those.
Yeah, you could easily make this up, and it doesn’t feel like something Tom would do
Def doesn’t but he does also seem like a smooth mfer
I’ve always wondered what his personal life is like. I really like that he tries to keep it separated – it’s professional – but still.
He even said something on the lines of “This Tom Scott is a character. Based on the real one, but nonetheless.” I forget his exact wording, or which video it was in.
Oh yeah, he did say that. I suppose it’s natural when there’s a side of you that you show to the public and a side that you show to your friends. It’s like how everyone acts sightly differently around their parents
I think any successful, level headed host, actor, media personality has a character they play in public. Actually to expand on that most people that are successful and want to keep sane have a public character.
I think it was in this video: https://piped.video/watch?v=UaGTFeibOEk
Oh is that one of the really meta videos?
Hmm, no not that one. Tho it is a good video and says the same kind of thing :)
Timestamp?

It’s 4chan, of course it’s made up. That said who knows what Tom would do. We don’t know a thing about him outside of what he chooses to show on youtube. There have been enough scandals with celebs who seemed nice to show that we don’t know who people really are. Not saying he is an asshole, he could be perfectly nice, just that we don’t know.
You come home and there’s a red shirt on the floor.
“Im in Anon’s bedroom”
what it say “i dont think loose slut” ???
Probably something like don’t blame him, blame her
It says “I don’t think she was ever your girlfriend. I think she was a loose slut.”
Anyone know how to find a link to the original?
To the original post? Find an archive site for /tv/ and search using the post number(top right). Don’t be surprised if you come across some offensive stuff, though.
Thanks

Why are they bullying him on there? It’s not even ironically like on r/roastme
Have you never been on 4chan before?
Why wouldn’t they be? Anons story implies that he’s less attractive than Tom Scott, who’s not exactly a pillar of traditional masculinity. Also it’s 4chan, what do you expect? /tv/ isnt as bad as /pol/ or /b/, but it’s still up there as one of the worst boards on the site.
I guess… I’ve just never seen so much unprovoked toxicity before though on my whole time on Lemmy/Reddit
Yeah, pretty much. There’s a reason it’s called the Internet Hate Machine.
imagine tom fucking scott cucking a 4channer
