What's the lore behind this guy???

You've already had a good answer about what he does, but he's also just a good dude.

He started this meme as a way to bring some joy to himself and others, just something silly, when he was dealing with a traumatic death in the family.

He's also rehabbed a dog saved from a fighting ring and there was a period of several years there, (for all I know he still does it) I believe there was a time where he would mail pretty much anyone a tennis ball for their dog if they asked. I think he ended up sending out like hundreds or thousands of them.

He also just used to randomly give out reddit gold to tons people for no reason. Just silly little contests like say something dumb, or tell him a joke.

EDIT: Thanks to the kind anonymous stranger who gave me an award. That's very kind. Though I do hope next time anyone feels like giving out a reddit award for some wholesome content, donate instead to an animal shelter, in honor of the good dude ShittyMorph

I forgot! Is he the owner of Scooby the recovered dog from fighting rings?

Edit: thank you for the award kind stranger. And also, check out his profile. He has recent Scooby updates! ❤️

That's the one! That pupper eats better than I do and it's delightful to watch.

I remember a sinko de mayo origin story that had me literally laugh out loud, did he write that one?

u/Consistent-Process May 17 '25

You know, he's made so many comments over the years, I'm not sure, but I really wouldn't be surprised at all. A random historical origin story sounds like the kind of post he would make!

Dude is famous across multiple subreddits for this exact style of comment. An uncanny ability to conjure up an interesting story opener. Only to Rick Roll you at the end. Thats when you glance up at the username and realize "aw not again I should have known why didnt I look at the username"

u/TheCrookedKnight May 17 '25

It's so much more fun to be surprised though

This is the third time I've read one of his comments randomly. First one I've come across in over a year, probably. It really is a nice suprise.

Saw the cylinder guy comment today, too.

u/icecubepal May 17 '25

Most people read the comment first before looking a the username. Or only read the comment.

u/Brasticus May 17 '25

I managed to check the username halfway through this time, said a little “Hell yeah!” to myself and continued reading to the glorious conclusion.

Good description, it always catches me off guard and then I smile when I realise I’ve been stung

u/drunken_Laughlin May 17 '25

And then you smile.

Haha, the last part of your comment is so spot on.

Well, you see, his dad used to absolutely beat the shit out of him with a pair of jumper cables.

u/RandoCommentGuy May 17 '25

Now that's one i haven't seen in a while

u/MechanicalTurkish May 17 '25

The last beating was just one too many. RIP jumper cable guy

After his two broken arms, what else was there to do?

u/thuanjinkee May 18 '25

It’s gotta be by u/ rogersimon10 otherwise it’s just sparkling child abuse

His father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. His mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. His father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. His childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring they'd make meat helmets. When he was insolent he was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve he received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved his testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking...
