You know what? I know this is an account dedicated to Decker quotes, but let's get into this because they're calling me a "shill" over a shitty thing I wrote in an article almost five years ago. That article taught me several important lessons.
I wanted to write about why I thought Danger 5 ruled at the time, and in an attempt to reference how it reminded me of Tim and Eric's comedy, I insulted the shit out of Tim and Eric. Tim was, understandably so, pissed at me about it.
No one was editing my work then. I had no one to turn to really, before or after. And the next day was my birthday, which I spent receiving countless hateful tweets from Tim and Eric fans about how much I sucked. But I deserved it, it was a bad take that was public!
After the whole saga with @TVOvermind ripping off one of our posts yesterday, I started poking around there and have yet to find a single post that links to any sources. Which is weird because they aggregate a lot of news.
I also have been trying really hard to find the writer of their version of our Hans Moleman piece, who has pumped out five other articles, over 4k words, no links in any of them, since yesterday.
Look, I can’t conclusively prove that this writer isn’t a real person, but I consider myself a pretty good googler and have found no proof that he actually exists yet
🚨 Whoa! Interesting #FuckFuckJerry update, per a helpful source who sent me this tip. Today, the FJ Instagram account deleted 260 posts! Last column is new media uploads/removals. cc @timheidecker @VicBergerIV @pattonoswalt 
The green column in the middle is the # of followers added per day. You will notice that since #FuckFuckJerry began, the amount of followers added per day went from averaging 5 digits to 4, and then look at today - wow! Compare gaining 11.8k followers per day to just under 2k.
This is a solid argument that if enough comedians and other people with influence got behind this cause, and made posts letting their followers on Twitter and Instagram know this account is built on stolen content and shouldn't be followed, a real change could happen.
