DIALECTS & ACCENTS:

Are you freakin’ serious??? Southern accent is a skill??? Absolutely hilarious!

I was wondering what the difference is between an English and a British accent.

As you suspect…there’s none. There are different British accents (a person from Sussex wouldn’t speak with the same accent as someone from, say, Yorkshire,) but to discern among these accents one should probably identify the accent with the place whence it came. Not by calling one British and one English.
The comments to the article are pretty hilarious.
I want to see a video of his bench/squat of over 1200 pounds.

I think its “bench & leg press/squat”
I’m not sure what a “leg press/squat” is? Anyone?
Douchebag makes amends on his website:
A note from “THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD”. Stalin. Hitler. Bin Laden. John Fitzgerald Page. Somehow, I am ranked at #1. My crime - murder? treason? pedophilia? rape? No, worse. A woman winked at me on the internet. I sent her an introdutory email. She tried to rescind her initial wink by saying we weren’t a “personality” match . She ascertained that from my first email without ever speaking to me. Here is my crime. Instead of just letting her float away, I let her know that I feel that if you approach me, you should meet my standards and listed facts about myself.
She took this personal email, sent to her only, and sent it out to everyone in America. In turn, every blog in America has villified me. I am being threatened with bodily harm, told to kill and neuter myself, that I am a douchebag, etc. My phone rings and email hums day and night, even the New York Times has called (Is this really an noteworthy news story)?. People feel it is okay to post my phone number, address and personal email in attack blogs.
Let me ask you this? Which friend would you rather have - a straight shooter who doesn’t waste your time, or someone who can take any PRIVATE email, phone call or letter and put it out there to the world if you cross them? Anyone of you could be in my shoes overnight. Do you feel you have any expectation of privacy when you talk on the phone, send someone an email or a letter? I do. I did not threaten her in any way.
Let me give you a tip about internet dating. Men lie about their height. Women lie about their weight. If a person has nothing but pictures of their head, they are not height/weight proportional. It is a cold reality. I have standards, as we all do. Typically, you approach people above your standards. I am looking for someone who is educated and who takes care of themselves. That is all.
All of the facts on this website are true. I am not Alexsey Vayner, there are no videos on here of me hitting tennis balls at 200 mph! Just because you can’t find it, haven’t heard about it, can’t see it or don’t know about it doesn’t mean it did not happen. This is a website for my SIDE career, acting/modeling. I know I am not Brad Pitt. But Mr. Whipple gets work too! All types are needed, and I am struggling like any other person in this business. I like to be on the movie set, meeting the stars, learning how movies are made, and especially eating all the craft service! In my real career, all I need is a resume and a degree. In this world, you are a piece of meat. Current pictures of body and face are needed (I have done casting). They need to know what you have done in the past. This website allows me to showcase all of my work in one place and is used to get jobs in this field.
I graduated from Penn. I took my name out of the database to avoid donation solicitations. It is the oldest UNIVERSITY, not college in the country. I am not gay, although I do try to dress nicely. This is, unfortunately, my real hair. My statistics are just that - facts about me. If I said I drove a Pinto, went to community college and worked as a bag boy, would everone be so upset? I am not jealous of others. All of my friends have something better than I do, they are smarter, more educated, more cultured, etc. I try to take the best of others and learn from people that are doing better than I am.
I am not perfect, nor do I pretend to be. I have no emotional I.Q. I am not much of a decorater. I am an orphan. I went to a mediocre public high school in Ohio. I weighed 140 lbs. in high school. I come from a loving family - my dad (who died when I was 10) did 3 tours of 'Nam, received 2 Purple Hearts and a Silver Star during 19 years in the Army. My mom (she just died 2 years ago) worked the same job for 30 years. I have no siblings or grandparents and have been on my own since 17. I have no one to fall back on, so I have to be aggressive and go for my deams - I can’t rely on anyone else. We all have that instintual survival mechanism. I can’t love anyone else if I don’t love myself first.
I understand the pyschology is to be angry at me. But when you think about it, do you want every single PRIVATE thing you write or say to be put out to the universe? That would be a scary, P.C. world. Pyschology is something I really don’t understand. A girl I am interested in will approach me on a dating site, and we will have a pleasant exchange. A girl who I am not interested in will approach, then when she doesn’t hear back from me, will delete me in a day or so. Why? To make herself feel better. I apologize for not having the emotional intelligence to understand this.
Every single piece of my life has been put up for scrutiny. I only ask this - do you feel the punishment is worth the crime? An overnight internet pariah for sending a girl a personal email? Everything I have ever worked for in my life has been sullied in one day, by one person. Before you cast the next stone - would you like your life ruined over anything you have ever said or written? My reputation is all I have. It has been severly damaged and can never be repaired. I cannot fight an overwhelming army of bloggers. My future grandkids wil be able to read about this on the internet 50 years from now. This is the time when my true friends will step forward.
Inside, I am a good person. I am generous with my friends. I am friendly, outgoing and funny. I take people on face value. I can be abrasive and obnoxious at times - I admit that. Animals and children love me (maybe because I don’t have any). I am constantly using my connections to help others. I don’t smoke or do drugs. I basically leave people be, as I do not believe life is a zero sum game.
The public hanging of me is making many of you happy. The catch-22 for you is that no publicity is bad publicity. I am getting offers for things - movies, books, TV shows. I have turned down every request. This is not a joke. Don’t let this happen to you. Anything you ever write or say can be used against you and can turn your life from normal into a living hell. I think all of this venom should be saved for terrrorist, rapists, murderers etc. All I ask is that you put my “crime” in proper perspective. I sent a not very nice private email to someone. That is all.
I love the parts where he states:
“I am not gay… although I do try to dress nicely.”
“Animals and children love me.”
yes. this guy has some douchebag qualities, but he really doesn’t deserve all that bullshit.
unfortunately i feel bad for him.
I tried to click on the geocities website, but got this message
“The GeoCities web site you were trying to view has temporarily exceeded its data transfer limit. Please try again later”
Ha! Looks like everybody’s getting in on this.
And yes, the punishment fits the crime. Certain people should be brought down to size when they get uppity. Actually, EVERYONE should be brought down to size when they get uppity. Is it an outrageous response? Yeah. But then you should have the common courtesy to remember that you are not better than everyone else, and then insult a person you want to date. Color me unsympathetic.
He benches squats and legpresses over 1200 pounds, combined weight. Remember kiddies, it’s important to combine your weight lifting totals otherwise it doesn’t sound that impressive when you bench 200 legpress 700 and squat 300.
Also why anyone would feel the need to parade the fact that he’s been “random background dude #3” in about 13 movies. How do you bring that up to a producer?
“Oh, didn’t you see me in blue collar tv?”
“uhhhh no?”
“Yea I was that guy behind jeff foxworthy eating a sandwich, this is the caliber of actor you are dealing with here, I can eat sandwiches and loaf around in the background, this obviously qualifies me for some lead role stuff, don’t call me I’ll have my people call you”
And don’t feel bad for this chump, he’s so full of himself he’s incapable of sympathy, let alone empathy. He may be “in the 98th percentile” but his personality is too inflated for him to end up with any real friends. Unfortunately he probably wont ever get over himself, end up marrying a gold digger and lose half his shit. But it’s not like he hasn’t earned it!
What a twat.
Okay, okay. He’s a self-centered douche-bag. We get it.
What about the vindictive cunt who sent his letter out to the whole world? Sorry, but I have problem with that. Someone needs to put that dog to sleep.

What you talking about? Most of the posts that I read made fun of his petty accomplishments, not his douche bag response to rejection. The letter responding to the “no thanks” is just the tip of the iceberg.
This guy created a website and held himself up for the world to scrutinize. The funny thing is, this may in the end get him noticed. For a douche like him, there’s no such thing as bad publicity.
The fact that he did the myspace little thing for look-alikes and actually believed it enough to list on his page, is hilarious.
no, hes a schoolboy bitch because he thinks hes gorgeous, and he thinks he is built.
Okay, guys…I’ve played along long enough…
Is this Website SERIOUS???
Mufasa
Yes Mufasa, unfortunately the website IS serious. lol
I think it’s kinda pathetic actually, and feel sorry for the guy that he doesn’t realize that he’s taking himself too seriously, inflating all his petty accomplishments to make himself sound like some kind of bigwig or superstar.
After reading just about everything on his website, and the messages he exchanged with the woman, I think it’s painfully obvious this guy has some SERIOUS self-esteem issues. I kind of feel bad for him for that reason alone. The guy has had a good deal of success though he still feels the need to impress and prove how much better he is than everyone. Poor chap.
I think the guy fits the critera for NPD, or Narcissistic Personality Disorder. I came across this definition, written by Chushin, in another thread:
Narcissistic Personality Disorder Symptoms
A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:
has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
requires excessive admiration
has a sense of entitlement, i.e., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations
is interpersonally exploitative, i.e., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
lacks empathy: is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her
shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes
Am I the only one that feels sorry for this guy now? Getting bashed on a national level to the point where people are calling him telling him how much of a piece of shit he is? The ones harassing him on the phone and making websites calling him a date rapist are the real douche bags. Its takes a really hate filled person to do that.
Ya so his website and his posts make him seem pompous but he does not deserve to have his name trashed to this point. There so many worthless fuckers out there who harm people yet this guy has harmed no one!
This guy is narcissistic but he doesn’t deserve this.
