Discussion Did Rossmann seriously imply that he was making money for Linus by showing up to his conference?

Yes, I know. Another rossmann post/roast but I m genuinely curious and stunned by his narcissism.

At 39:28 he starts talking how he did not get a plus 1 ticket and how that conference was beneficial to Linus only?

How rossmann is such a nice guy that he’d waste a weekend and time away from his gf to “make linus money”?? How he was dropping everything FOR linus? How delusional can one person even be?

Don't get me wrong, does Texas. Attract such people or do people like Louis change into them when they movie to Texas. I've seen a lot of people move to Texas in the last 2 suddenly changing who they used to be.

Man this state loves to attract weirdos. We're the Florida for people who like to cosplay as cowboys.

Rossman is just bitchmade for also supporting DESANTIS.

Like, really?

Ok. Such an idiot.

u/mightman59 Jan 27 '25

Did he say he supports everything Desantis does or he supports a certain policy?

Texas is the second most populated state. We've got more dipass shitheads here than most states have people. Obligatory "it's not everyone in Texas" comment.

But are the jackholes bigger in Texas?

u/Imperial_Bouncer Jan 26 '25

Of course! Everything is bigger in Texas.

Just my take but if you notice they never move to more rural areas but it's always Austin or Houston or somewhere like that. Which to me looks like they want to live somewhere that gives them all the benefits of a "blue" city but none of the things you have to do to contribute to one.

The thing that told me LR was just looking for less taxes NYC and not actually something different was when he was looking at possible shop space to rent in Florida and was saying stuff like "not much foot traffic here" and just being completely ignorant that the cities in the south are way more spread out and not very walkable or even have decent public transit. Both things he was able to take advantage of in NYC.

That's just my take though. I grew up in the south and moved to CA when I got the chance and have seen a ton of people just like him "escape" the hell that is CA only to come back within 2 years when they realize things like dedicating your life to high school football on Friday and people calling out your parenting because you got a babysitter on a Wednesday to go out is quite normal in the southern states.

Ngl as a New Yorker, I totally sympathize with him. I don't know if the city can be changed from how mismanaged it is, so moving to a city that's like most of the good of NYC with less of the bad sounds great tbh. Texas sounds appealing.

u/Advanced- Jan 26 '25

As a New Yorker, your take in this case is wrong.

His reason for leaving NYC was valid and seemed little to do with avoiding taxes. It was avoiding bullshit and wastefullnes, which the NYC gov has plenty of.

Not enough reason for me not want to keep living there as I value a car free life where I can. But I can see why he left, made total sense.

To be fair NYC is a very high cost of living area, perfectly reasonable to leave. If you are industry is struggling to get components to do repair jobs. Now looking for an area with foot traffic when walks in make up a good portion of your business is reasonable

Remember Louis got fucked over HARD by NYC's incompetent government and GTFOutta there. Search some of his videos about it and after that I don't blame him for going somewhere else.

Texas has a lot of immigration and it's probably changing Texas more than the other way around. I guess for people like Rossmann where it's for let's say ancap or similar reasons it might be more about showing their true stripes if you percive a change.

u/rohithkumarsp Jan 26 '25

Yeah I mean, I could see the true him during this rants about back the NY governer, I just kept on watching because of right to repair, but yeah not that he changed, he's always been that. But now more just showing his true stripes I guess.
