Actual Video Footage of Man Going His Own Way

If you’ve ever wondered what the carefree, unencumbered-by-women-and-their-cooties life of a true Man Going His Own Way looks like, you’re in luck, as the video above presents ACTUAL FOOTAGE of just this. Apparently, Going Your Own Way looks an awful lot like Hanging Around and Pestering, at least if you’re Vention1MGTOW, a YouTube videoblogger who regularly offers up little glimpses into his awesome life.

In the video above, our hero, in between fits of giggles, gleefully relates how he “trolled” a cutsey YouTube video showing a high school coach who’d gotten his team to help him propose to his girlfriend. Vention1MGTOW did his best to ruin the mood by posting “a few strategic comments” (that is, endless screeds) attacking marriage and women and, well, you know the drill. My favorite line from his comments, which he proudly reads aloud:

I’m sure some old wrinkled up, STD, ex-party party girl would love to move into my home and begin diverting my income for her own use but I don’t really see a benefit for me in that deal.

I hate to break it to you, dude, but I’m pretty sure even the most thoroughly wrinkled-up ex-party girl would rather die alone and unloved than have to put up with you. Hell, I’m pretty sure the only reason your dog (he has a dog) puts up with you is because he has no idea what you’re saying.

If you check out the coach’s video, you can see that a whole swarm of MGTOWers have descended upon the comments. Vention1MGTOW’s comments are actually some of the more polite from that bunch.

Vention1MGTOW – from his choice of snack (ramen noodles) to his, er, casual sense of interior decoration – seems like such a perfect embodiment of MGTOWer stereotypes that it’s hard to believe he’s for real. But he is. He’s got 82 videos up on his YouTube channel detailing his various obsessions: MGTOW, Bitcoins, hugelkultur gardening, doomsday prepping. Oh, and he’s got a Segway.

If the video above merely whetted your appetite for more of Vention1MGTOW’s trolling, here’s a video in which he successfully infiltrates the YouTube comments for an Enya video in order to inform the women there that they’re all going to get old and ugly and no one will want them.

I may have to come back to him again later. He’s a charmer.

Many thanks to the unknown hero on Reddit who brought this fellow to my attention.

Please don’t think less of me, but I’m not going to see that video. Just hearing about it is dispiriting enough. He sounds like a Marvel Comics villain made entirely of YouTube comments.

Count me in on that, Robert.

Dead giveaway that it’s a revenge fantasy: his smarmy, high-pitched giggle fits get triggered by the prospect of women becoming old, fat, or weak. Women can’t run a household after age forty GIGGLEGIGGLE! Because they hit the wall and get too feeble to manage CACKLE CACKLE CACKLE! and can’t find a man to take care of them LULZ!

As we all know, frailty, dependency, disability, loneliness, and aging never happen to men. Certainly not men with the foresight to invest in a stockpile of creamed corn and bitcoins.

Yup! I went and had a look at some of the trolling MRA-style comments on some of my favourite you-tube videos. When I read them, all I could see was this guy making stuff up (with no evidence) then posting it to the Internet, while on holiday, and eating noodles. 😀

I generally skip these type of comments, but to be able to see the real-time, overwhelming lack of evidence that goes into them is a beautiful beautiful thing.

I’m going to go ahead and not click on that link, Timbo. I bet it super entertaining, with high production value and valid points, but no.

To be fair to the MRAs crapping all over the comments for that video, the woman is clearly a conniving gold-digger, marrying a small-town high-school coach and all. No doubt she’ll immediately quit her job and lounge around on his massive piles of money all day, laughing at her good fortune at having hit the Man Jackpot. Who rakes in the benjamins faster than public school faculty?

I do like the little weedy guy’s nice deck. He should sit out there and enjoy the sunshine while he trolls.

LOL. Tim Murphy, is that supposed to be some kind of rebuttal to something?

It’s just the video of Lenny Kravitz’s remake of American Women. With a little paragraph written about it.

A little excerpt:

And then one day, your ears open at random and you experience a Man-piphany. A jolt of genius that starts at the balls and proceeds directly to the brain.

A Man-piphany. I mean, dude, that’s just…that’s just plain silly.

I followed Tim’s link so you don’t have to, folks, and the good news is that it was just the music video of “American Woman.”

The bad news is that it was the Lenny Kravitz version of “American Woman.” Here is the real version as a palate cleanser.

I experienced Papa John’s for the first time a few weeks ago. My man told me explicitly that it was awful. He’s a fat Italian boy at heart so I generally trust his pizza opinions except that he loves Pizza Hut. Like, in Jersey he got Pizza Hut pizza for us when he could have gotten real pizza from anywhere.

Anyhoo, in an act of rebellion I procured a Papa John’s pizza. The crust was absolutely dreadful. Cardboardish, really. The toppings were no worse than Pizza Hut’s though. The garlic butter sauce horrified me. It was like sticking my pizza crust in concentrated potato chip seasoning. It hit my sinuses like a tidal wave. It was wretched. I flushed it down the toilet and, shortly after it began swirling away, a bunch of it wafted back at me, causing me to gag and cough.

Then my man tells me that’s the only thing from Papa John’s he likes!

I saved a couple pieces to watch him eat them. It was hilarious.

I posted it in the open thread but this Dog Going His Own Way might do as well here:

I, for one, am completely shocked that Vention1 and his ilk are not wealthy playboys but instead live DIRECTLY ON A PILE OF PIZZA CRUSTS.

And keep your gold-digging, ex-party talons away from his water purification tablets!

Thanks for the Just Jumpy the Dog video. I was AMAZED and much cheered up by it.

Amazed is the word! My ex-boss emailed it this morning and I had to share it. That dog looks like he’s having more fun and getting more out of life than all the scrotosphere dudes put together.

That is one smart dog!

MRAs are also good at the “pee on mommy” trick.

marinerachel: Papa John’s sauce tastes like ketchup to me. I kind of agree with your bf about Pizza Hut, I do love their pan crust. It’s even better the next day.

Yeah, I agree with the popularly stated stance on Pizza hut here, although I’ve justified it to myself by being a resolute splitter when it comes to pizza taxa. ‘Italian’ pizza is a different genus from fastfood grease sponge pizza is a different species from california pizza. So there.

Pizza hut just happens to make one hell of a fastfood grease sponge (mmmm pan crust!). Doesn’t mean we have poor pizza sense, since it’s a totally different food! 😀

(and Papa John’s is the absolute worst of the fastfood grease sponge clade: even pizza evolution has some dead ends)

Yeah, letting your little head take over for the big one is what the Scrotosphere is all about. Unfortunately, no actual brains reside in the testicular sac.

Anyway, what’s the “genius” in covering an anti-war song by a great Canadian band who weren’t actually misodges?

OT but did you guys see what Phyllis Schafly wrote today about how we need a gender wage gap to save marriage? Or some WTF.

Bleeeecccccch. She should just go off somewhere with the MGTOW.

MGTOW’s remind me off customers who get indignant and declare “I’m never coming back here again!”. Either you’ll be too busy dealing with the other 200 or so customers per day to give a shit or you’ll see that same customer again next Tuesday.

Wonder if he’s off his meds or something.

Last I checked, no medicine on earth cures chronic assholism. Because chronic assholism isn’t a mental illness. Don’t be a dick, Adam.

Yes. Certainly as a customer service provider in such situations I most often think: “Promise?”
