(this is going great!) #GenCon2022

Not sure if that Boston Brand guy is full of shit, but that does sound like a premise for a Pat novel, and it explains why he's working on the Charles Dickens thing on-spec. He probably believes he's a proven commodity when it comes to space novels and he should only be writing them under contract.

His buddy Scalzi already beat him to print with that same premise

 

[Slackjawed Cow]

Im sure a phone call would confirm if their valets can drive stick

 

[Pringle Can Lothario]

He should get a ticket for parking the piece of shit more than 18" from the curb.

Also, do not use that photo to hijack the Gencon hashtag about thefts of games and other troonie items.

People who brag about driving manual are such fucking faggots, it takes like 20 minutes to learn how.

these aren’t 1950s cars with double clutch systems and chokes, fat fucking pig.

wouldn't that mean EVERY SINGLE GUEST who showed up with a manual car would also have it parked there? He acts like manuals are one-in-a-million unique quirky special vehicles. Reminds me of him bragging about how RARE it is that his parents are still together in their first marriage

 

[MunchausenByProxy]

An entire valet staff being unable to drive stick seems a little far-fetched

Bullshit, it’s not difficult to drive shift and for fuck sake ITS NOT THE ONLY CAR WITH A STICK SHIFT! Challengers can come in manual, jeep wranglers come in manual (some true jeep fanatics will ONLY drive stick) same with Corvettes and other high end sports cars. He acts like it’s some great accomplishment to drive stick when you can learn in about 15 minutes. Plus if it’s valet that means it’s only going to be moved so staying in first gear. Not challenging.

He acts like his car is the ONLY car that is a manual transmission. While it’s not as common it’s still used with sports cars and jeep wranglers. You’re telling me a corvette has never been valeted here? Far fetched

 

[Pringle Can Lothario]

The Alexander has extensive self-parking.

With at least two storms going through Indianapolis since Wednesday, there should be some debris under the vehicle. There is not.

 

[Pringle Can Lothario]

And nice use of Quasi’s money, stupid.

The Alexander Hotel

$267-$307

 

[DanFielding]

Pat lying and exaggerating to make himself seem more important than he is? Why that’s the most shocking thing I’ve heard all day. Next you’ll be telling me he’s fat too.

I would bet good money he took the "daytime" pictures just before the sun went down when he got out of the car. Then when he was done checking in he went back and took those night shots.

I bet this was a torque picture moment but he realized he had more potential with a gencon tweet.

 

[Pringle Can Lothario]

Also, that torpedoes his complaint about cyber stlakers. Wouldn‘t a rascal have slashed the tires or left felony amounts of fentanyl in the wheel well?

yup, it's right around the corner and they even have a bridge connecting the hotel with the car park, Pat was a lazy pig that DEMANDED some minimum wage kid to take care of his car, I bet you.

what kind of "car guy" leaves his "future classic" outside for 4 days because he's too much of a lardass to walk 20 meters acrross the street?

 

[Slackjawed Cow]

Of course he goes for the double dip.

 

[The Greaseman]

So move it yourself like a normal person would

I have a US and a UK driving licence, so I can drive both. Nobody in the UK drives automatic and nobody in the US drives manual.

It’s the same thing. Bragging about either is asinine. It’s like saying I count in imperial and not metric, yeah ok?

God he’s such a faggot.

It seems like such a long time ago that the Torque Wheeler persona was discovered. It was pretty clever how he made everyone forget about it by giving them even more embarrassing material to laugh about.
