I love Tom Green.

I hope the man is doing better now. On tiktok he seemed to be livestreaming himself drinking a lot and getting really paranoid about nuclear war. I think at one point he mentioned moving to Patagonia to avoid it all.

I agree, there are definitely better options than Patagonia

Like Australia. Nukes would only make everything there stronger.

When I had a volvo periodically when I got into it Id think "My bum is on the Swedish" completely out of nowhere.

I was actually on the Tom Green web show.

Though, I never got to talk to him, I was put up on the screen behind him while he yapped on until the episode ended abruptly.

Still though, it's a neat story, and if helps me score a lot of pussy. I don't know why my cat likes that story.

So that was you with the red coffee mug then. Hi Phil.

I only ever really saw him in Road Trip, which was dismal, but I can respect that he was obviously doing whatever he wanted and didn’t care whether you thought it was funny or not. He certainly didn’t fit into the overall vibe.

I just realised that reads like an obituary. RIP, Tom.

I wonder if he’ll ever do that barrel roll.

[–] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago

Freddy Got Fingered is one of the most underappreciated movies of all time, and I'm 95% sure he didn't even want to make it. Glad to see Tom escaped the Hollywood bullshit and is living a pretty chill life.

His soccer bit is still one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
