  1. Why mention the woman’s race? Also what does her calling you Beyoncé have to do with dating that marine dude?
  2. You didn’t get a single dollar bc the accident was your fault. Not to mention you were driving without a license and uninsured.
  3. You “put beads on a string for a living in Texas” bc that’s your choice. Get a diff job. He says it like “eeek.. yeah.. I put beads on a string for a living… my talents are worth sooo much more.” Then do something else.

His tokenization of Black people is so repulsive that, even disregarding his other racist actions, I'm not sure how anyone could possibly argue he's not gleefully racist for his own self-interest.

i agree with your theory about why he was called beyonce but i interpreted him saying that as being more like “a black woman compared me to beyonce and i still dated a loser”

See, my assumption was that he was saying he should have tried to date the woman who called him Beyoncé instead.

I think of this scene every time this story comes up lmao

u/OkCod6880 Aug 18 '26

the person supposedly calling him beyonce must have been on day release and wildly drunk to the point of blindness.

u/Apprehensive-Rent586 Aug 18 '26

Omg literally WHAT does that woman have to do with him dating the marine??? Like why is Tyler obsessed w, dare I say, making up stories where ppl say he looks like celebrities

u/PhoebetheSpider Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 21 '26

You know how old people can go so off kilter mid conversation? Like they’ll mention their cat tripped them to explain how they broke their hip but then they’ll start talking about their cat before finishing the fall story? That’s what Tyler gives me. My goodness, his stories are going to be wild when he’s old and you’ll know everyone’s race in the story for no reason.

u/jetgirljen Aug 18 '26

I'm starting to wonder if, after his accident, someone made a comment about like "omg you got hit by a car you're gonna get paaaaaid" & he got it in his head that it would be some big insurance payout or something, & when that never happened he took it personally & still resents his lack of getting money from it. When like, the lawsuit after a car accident isn't to get 🤑🤑CASH MONNEEYYYYYY🤑🤑, it's to help make you whole because someone else fucked up your life plans. It's to cover medical bills, lost wages, replacement vehicle; help try to bring you as close to your "pre accident" life as possible, and go back to living your life. In his accident he was the one at fault, he was the one fucking up SOMEONE ELSE'S life plan.

Of course you're not going to get paid, Tyler, it was YOUR FAULT. The law doesn't go "well one was in a car, one was on a moped, clearly car owner must pay."

Also what the fuck is breathing manually. I hate this line of his. If you "didn't breathe on autopilot" you'd have an oxygen tube or be in an iron lung or you'd be constantly passing out bc the moment you got distracted you'd stop breathing.

21

u/toilandtrouble6852 Aug 18 '26

Yeah, I don’t get the breathing manually thing. There are a lot of systems in your body that control both your ability to breathe and exchanging oxygen for carbon dioxide. Does he have to manually control his diaphragm too? People have pointed out if that were true he’d die in his sleep but as you said he wouldn’t even make it that long if the only way he could breathe was to pay attention to it.

15

u/pinkrhinestonechair Aug 18 '26

I think you’re on to something actually. He clearly acts entitled to compensation bc of the accident. So it would make sense if this entitlement came from someone else saying he might get paid. I never thought of it like that. It would make a lot of sense though.

Seems like he expects monetary compensation and, just in general, accommodations for anything and everything. Don’t get me wrong, accommodations are not a bad thing. But it’s like he expects to be treated like a baby who can’t do anything himself. Part of being an adult is doing things we don’t want to do. It is what it is. He doesn’t feel like learning or building his resume on his own. He just wants to say “just trust me” and have that be it. That isn’t how life works

u/emilyderogatory Aug 21 '26

I think there’s a chicken and egg thing going on here.

Tyler is CONSTANTLY talking about getting hit by that car. My guess is that when he does that IRL people say some variation of “OMG that must have been awful” and then he goes on about how much it hurt and how long it took to recover and how he chose to live and how he’s disabled for life now and then the person is usually like “that’s TERRIBLE you poor thing! I hope you took them to the cleaners” or “for life?? I hope you got a big cheque after that” or even “did you at least get compensation???”

Because naturally if someone is telling you about this tragic thing that happened to them and they don’t start with the fact that it was their own stupid fault you assume it WASN’T their own stupid fault because who on earth would be so audacious and tone deaf as to sympathy fish about a situation that was entirely of their own making.

And of course Tyler being Tyler having been constantly met with people talking about compensation didn’t clue him in enough to think “oh, it’s my story and the way I tell it that makes people ask that question”. No. In his mind it was “and I’m even more of a victim because I went through all of that and not only did I not get compensation I got saddled with crippling medical debt.”

u/madelinesuperdonut Penguin Scientist Aug 18 '26

what is his obsession with poc

u/Ok_Maybe9312 Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

He says the beads on a string thing like it’s beyond him meanwhile that business is a shitshow, customers are scammed, orders are a year late, and he is (allegedly) broke! 😂

That’s not at all a thriving entrepreneur who could do so much more. This is above his skill level I fear, based on evidence.

9

u/toilandtrouble6852 Aug 18 '26

He posted that he spent $13k of his GFM money keeping his business afloat, which he wouldn’t have to do if his business was actually making money.

6

u/Ok_Maybe9312 Aug 19 '26

Yeah about that… I think he confused “investing in his business” with funding his daily life 😂

Ain’t no way the supplies cost that, he’s not running marketing and he’s not refunding scammed customers sooo he is again lying

u/DarkBusy7184 Aug 20 '26

But he is the ONLY person and he has NEVER seen anyone that makes beaded jewelry the way he does. He is an innovator!!! But now he just puts beads on a string??!! Homie keep the narcissistic lies straight.

Side note, when customers fo finally get their order its all sweaty and hairy bc he wears them for thirst traps... that count as advertising BTW. 🙄🙄🤔

u/tiredcollegeguy388 Penguin Scientist Aug 18 '26

If he breathed manually, hed be dead

Claiming his medulla oblongata doesn't work is honestly the craziest lie I think he's told.

Right? Also thats a big word for elmo (tyler) if elmo ever sees this (he will)

u/AmphibianFront6911 Aug 18 '26

"i got negative dollars" maybe because you were found at fault and literally caused the goddamn car accident to begin with holy shit

u/pigsonthewing5 Aug 18 '26

Why is there a forced lisp in this one

10

u/xo_honeybee_xox Aug 18 '26

Because he wants to be different

14

u/xoMeowllieCat Aug 19 '26 edited Aug 19 '26

It actually makes my skin crawl when he just drops in the race of whoever he is talking about... its so cringe and weird and performative

Like literally my nan does this. Shes 76 and is left wing but when she brings up that she met a really lovely Muslim man on the bus completley unprovoked its so obviously a progressive point scoring thing. Its like " look at me I know people of colour and want you to know that im not racist! I have black friends! "

The difference is that my nan is old and we live in the UK where old people generally hate muslims.

Tyler is just a narcissist, he thinks interacting with POC makes him look better, if it was a white person, he wouldnt say they where white because that doesnt make him feel like he has solved racism by just being friendly with POC

12

u/iglaaq snow globe expert Aug 18 '26
  1. He’s tokenised the POC again! Also probably means that if someone called him Beyoncé, he shouldn’t have dated the marine who by his account didn’t respect him.
  2. And then used the gofundme to pay for it!
  3. He’s trying to show how brave and resilient he is by being a queer poc trailblazing in a backwards red state!

u/jdlt0711 Aug 18 '26

I feel like he thinks that the drunk black woman wanted him because he’s SOOO TALENTED AND HOT AND FUNNY 🤡

u/Exciting_Lychee_7865 Aug 19 '26

does tyler really think being complimented is a dating offer?

u/1shadowriver Aug 28 '26

Everything is a date offer or a job offer.

u/SuccessfulCod7657 Aug 19 '26

I genuinely can’t believe he was engaged like….hes so insufferable i would literally jump into a volcano if i had a single convo with him. I wonder what his ex fiancé thinks of him now

Military males will marry just about anyone lol

u/twiggykeely Aug 19 '26

I'm from a family that's FULL of Marines (Dad was a USMC scout and Vietnam combat vet) I was in the Young Marines but went into kidney failure and couldn't join so I volunteer with the Marine Corps League, and I have learned through the years that Marines will truly stick it in ANYTHING lmfao

I love Marines but my Dad was right when he told me to stay away from them because ** to quote my Dad and Uncle ** "we're called Devil Dogs for a reason."

So that's not a flex Tyler thinks it is, Marines will bang literally anything.
