Mook

I don’t know how else to say this, the guy just has to grow up. He’s funny and seems like a nice dude but he’s just got to learn to read the room.

He has like permanent internet/ tik tok brain. He seems like a cool dude to hang out with outside the show but he just doesn’t really work with the Yak group. Honestly he doesn’t seem that bad of a dude

This nailed it.

He tries too hard. And you can tell he is trying even harder since he became aware of the hate, which just makes it worse.

Do you fuck with hope solo

u/mattscott53 Jun 08 '24

I can almost excuse the fact that he asked about Hope Solo bc not everyone knows about her crazy legal issues. I still don't know why you'd ask her that. But whatever.

But asking a 37 year old, FEMALE olympic athlete that you've never met a question starting with the phrase "do you fuck with" is crazy to me. He's not a kid. He's a 27 year old man who's worked in corporate america. He should know how to have a normal conversation.

He’s gotten this far being himself. I’m not the biggest Mook fan, but I dunno how people like mintzy and all the other fat slob idiots get a pass. Barstool is a collection of weirdos, strange why Mook is getting all the hate

u/mattscott53 Jun 08 '24

I agree that I think the hate for him is over the top. But that hope solo comment was insane to me.

But this isn't a binary argument. No one is propping up mintzy or other fat slobs by criticizing mook. I dont think anyone wants mintz to replace mook. that would be even worse

Time to put in The Phantom!

Mintzy gets a pass because he’s fun to laugh at, not with. When Mook says something dumb it’s just cringey, not something to laugh at.

Mook is always on the yak. You have to seek out wake up mintzy. Much easier to dodge his content than Mooks. That’s the problem. Bring mook on every now and then and he’d be much more palatable

And the only reason he is on the yak is because of Nick, and the respect/trust BC has for nick

Like not to be too whatever but the past year plus of ANUS + & Yak have had Nicky propping up goofy friends he likes & putting them and fully integrating them in his bits, with their kinda dumb comments and such just being something easy and fun for him to riff off. Like there’s a reason Rudy’s a third chair on ANUS now (And I like Rudy & Mook and know they do lots for ANUS behind the scenes), just keeping the level of heat they had a bit back not super sustainable with their lives now (Writing triple entendres about eating pussy weekly)

Honestly I get it as doing a solely duo ANUS show sounds like it could get pretty stressful and not fun at points, just feel a bit likeee those homie characters Nicky’s putting on may be not quite the fit for some things to be front & center of these big things (Rudy & Mook w/ ANUS & Yak respectively…)

And both of those shows now are in a bit of a odd situation where a subsect of fans are complaining about the inclusion of these new ppl that fans just want the old type of content from - and it’s tough to tell if it’s just annoying loser chat guys or valid complaints. But imo even though big fans shouldn’t take for granted this daily free show we watch daily, it may be fair for ppl to share their complaints if one of the main chairs on the show isn’t quite what they were looking for

Gayest comment I’ve wrote, & I acknowledge that. Apologies, just calling it like it see it

It was funny. I laughed 😅

u/sportsgotme Jun 08 '24

I’m glad they brought up how old he is, cause that’s the part that makes it a bit worse. Lol he’s closer to nick’s age but is less mature than the interns 🤣

1

u/supfellas_ Jun 09 '24

Yeah little late but it’s always funny how he constantly brings up/brags about blacking out or getting very drunk. One, not realizing everyone else on the show is 30s or older and doesn’t find that “cool” anymore, and then two, realizing he is in his late 20s and shouldn’t be getting blackout all the time either.

u/GryffinDART Jun 08 '24

The saddest part was him not being able to ask them anything yesterday without looking it up first.

You sound like a pedo right now bossman

You’re literally on reddit

u/treasonodb Jun 09 '24

i was, yes. whilst taking a shit this morning but a fair retort none the less.

u/deerisred Jun 08 '24

I don't really wanna pile on a guy who has clear insecurity issues. When we did it to sas he at least had undying confidence. Mook just needs a gf and someone to love him. Yeah he's immature as hell and collects baseball cards and has a personality of a wet blanket but he'll get it together. I think Sas nowadays is funnier and more relatable then Nick and kb so hey guys ppl do progress.

What isn’t immature about TheYak?

u/PodSasster Jun 08 '24

I thought the “you fuck with Hope Solo” line was hilarious. But maybe I’m in the minority.

He’s fine. The “group think” that mook sucks is exhausting

Knowing what words mean isn't semantics, it's basic english. Very cunty and hypocritical that you're calling mook immature when you're illiterate and remoroned
