    Even this guy’s made up racist claims are weird and awkward.

    Like… I’m no stranger to hearing crazy, racist, entitled, rich, white people bullshit stories, But this guy is shockingly bad at making these stories up. One good method of lying is to include enough believable detail that, of course, this must’ve happened. Another method of good lying is to be so over the top that the sheer commitment to the story makes it believable. This douchebag is nowhere in the galaxy of being smart enough, but of course he also had neither it being both ridiculous in the extreme nor it being outrageous enough with the level of commitment for it to be believable. It just sounds like he made up some racist bullshit, on the spot, because he felt pressured to fit in.

    “Oh, yeah, hehe, right, those Haitians, yeah… I heard uhh… Ohioans keep saying they kill and eat hamsters! Or cats or whatever… That’s what people are saying!”
