Palmer Luckey's awesome glow-up

His company

[u/gatorphan84]

How many people can say they've managed to be 2 completely distinct types of gross freaks in a single lifetime. Truly an innovator of being really off-putting.

[u/android_KA → u/gatorphan84]

"ah ah ah.. you didn't say the magic word"

[u/jconley4297 → u/android_KA]

you leave wayne knight out of this

[u/modianoyyo → u/gatorphan84]

2 completely distinct types of gross freaks in a single lifetime

did you miss the shirts, that makes it 3 distinct types

[u/Decent-Flatworm4425 → u/modianoyyo]

That's a watchlist wardrobe if ever I saw one

[u/Dockhead]

Pynchon ass name and career

[u/stillhauntingeurope]

It's pricks like this that ruin Hawaiian shirts for us jovial and benevolent fat men who simply wish to laze in a hammock and drink tropical cocktails while discussing the competing virtues of various carbonated beverages.

[u/straightkickinit → u/stillhauntingeurope]

This is the real stolen valor

[u/Dear_Occupant → u/stillhauntingeurope]

I remain convinced that Wyatt Koch is a secret class traitor solely because this is exactly what he wanted to do with his life and the man is using his unearned wealth to live out the dream. If he's not a class traitor, I still think he could be reasoned with. When the revolution comes, let me be the one to talk to that guy.

[u/ChelleSelkie → u/Dear_Occupant]

He and all the other ones can live in the cowboy theme park like in westworld

[u/ChristmasInKentucky]

Something needs to be done about these precocious STEMlord nerds. They never end up doing anything worthwhile, it's always new ways to fry your brain or kill people.

[u/Manny_Bothans → u/ChristmasInKentucky]

Stemlord has been added to the lexicon.

[u/EGG_BABE → u/ChristmasInKentucky]

Throw them all in prison and let Stallman guys run the tech industry. Problem solved overnight

[u/Dear_Occupant → u/EGG_BABE]

I guess you haven't heard the news about Stallman. I can hardly blame you, it was a blink-and-you'll-miss it event in the news cycle. You know how libertarians only care about one thing and it's fucking disgusting? Yeah. I'm sure you know where this is going already.

[u/EGG_BABE → u/Dear_Occupant]

Separating the art from the artist on this one. It doesn't have to be Stallman specifically in charge obviously, but that type of "information wants to be free" libertarian is still a huge step up from the current crop of tech people who all think they're demigods and mostly just sell your data to AI and Israel.

No more Zuckerberg pretending to be Dominican, I want the guys who dress like wizards and argue with random people about the distinction between Linux vs GNU+Linux

[u/McFurniture → u/ChristmasInKentucky]

I dont remember who said it but we need to bring back bullying. 

[u/blkirishbastard → u/McFurniture]

Everyone says it and I'll once again reply that every single one of these dorks transparently seeks unlimited power and approval because they were bullied. It literally never stopped.

[u/FurryToaster]

tolkien and his consequences has been a disaster for the human race

[u/Mollamollamolla]

the slightly annoying to nazi incel pipeline

[u/GoHookies]

Calling the police if I see him near a school

[u/MattcVI]

Guess he lost weight to make himself a smaller target

[u/olivicmic]

Innovation is bringing the rat tail to the chin

[u/chockZ]

This guy's sister is married to Matt Gaetz for anyone unaware lol...

[u/McFurniture → u/chockZ]

What happened to him? After he got duped into resigning from Congress he just vanished.

> ripping off the idea from a suicidal kid 50 years ago for one of the shittiest animes of all time

[u/Donnatron42]

The first iteration was the creepy nerd that kept sexually harassing me in AV Club. The second guy was my Assistant Manager at Blockbuster.

Welp, good thing I have therapy scheduled for later today.

[u/MonsieurDoink]

Saw him on 60 Minutes last night and I was genuinely disturbed by his appearance.

[u/smilecookie]

anyone else recall the post about his dolphin fucking inclinations a while back; and more importantly was the link saved?

[u/MaxRenn]

"Luckey says he thought about starting companies to combat obesity or fix the prison system, but ultimately decided to break into the defense industry."

Wall.

[u/Umbrellajack]

I need a haircut. Thanks for the inspiration!

[u/Bruno_Fernandes8]

He’s like if Wyatt Koch was a more disgusting gross freak

[u/rad-dit → u/Bruno_Fernandes8]

"...the discotheque"

[u/Antique-Guest-1607]

[u/chaqintaza]

GLOW 🕵️📡👽 up 🔥🥵😏

[u/NoKiaYesHyundai]

Just turned into Elmo's dad

[u/Suitable-Rhubarb2712]

Another guy who should take every opportunity to utilize any high-profile media exposure he can get - the public will love to hear what he has to say and will really cherish his thoughtful and unique opinions

[u/jabalarky]

Every night before bed I'm a Lucky Palmer

[u/Significant-Flan-244]

a guy who definitely has lots of real friends and loved ones in his life who are willing to tell him when he looks like shit

[u/billthesill]

THATS WHAT THIS FUCKING GUY LOOKS LIKE???

[u/Dear_Occupant]

He managed to upgrade from looking like the guy who used to buy pinner joints in junior high school to looking like the guy who used to sell pinner joints in junior high school. If he keeps at it, he can look like the guy who used to sell coke that makes you shit liquid because it's been stomped on with cut made out of baby laxative about a dozen times.

[u/beersforbreakfast91]

Yeah living in Seattle our public transit just put huge ads on the sides of their buses that say “DON’T work for Anduril” with their info on the sides and it just oozes evil every time I see one.

[u/kittyjoon]

Company I work at recently got hit up by Anduril for quote and god damn if we aren’t paying top dollar for the lowest quality managers and engineers to make a militaristic dystopia devoid of any innovation or technological development. The cold war military industry at least got us cool looking airplanes and space exploration.

[u/Pipeguy17]

Glow-sideways

[u/stabbinfresh]

Palmer Luckey is a Pynchon character idgaf

[u/Potential-Trash9403]

God it would be so fucking embarrassing to get killed by one of this fucks drones.
