continued Thatfucker discussion

[anonniemouse]

Since we've been kicked off FFA for the week, please feel free to continue the anon discussion here. Apologies if this is a big flop - I've never made a DW community before!

The rules are vaguely the same as they are over on FFA. Please refrain from being too much of an asshole, making personal attacks, posting identifying information or engaging in transfail.

ETA: If there's information you'd like to see archived (journal/blog posts related to Andy, etc.), please dump it here and link to it from the main post for discussing.

The thing is, he sounds like this person very frequently. He'll say things that are meant to be off-the-cuff but are very obviously rehearsed (if only in his head). It's one the things that gives people the creeps about him, even if they can't articulate why. That, and fact the emotions he expresses are often feigned.

I think I remember Abbey saying that she'd never seen Andy express genuine affection, and I believe her 100%. If you (and I mean a generic "you") are the sort of person who thinks Andy comes off warm and sincere in that video, then you might not see it. If, on the other hand, you've dealt with individuals like Andy who are constantly trying to manipulate other people through lovebombing, you'll probably know exactly what I mean. It's that salesman-y pitch and the firehose of happiness and affection that you need to watch out for. Like, my gut response to that video is, "What the hell is this creep trying to convince me of, and why?"
