Father of Daughters #62 Just a sad little Simple Simon and his bicycle

[EddieBeds]

Thread title winner: @Bizziebody as nominated by @Tell.A.Tale
Quite apt given his latest stories.


Though this was a worthy second place:

In no particular order:


We discussed a NYT article on parents pimping out their daughters and the parallels to Fodney.
See post: https://tattle.life/threads/father-...ple-life-for-simple-simon.43046/post-18566996

They held their own super spreader Christmas party within hours of posting that one of the twins had norovirus.

Posed for staged nap shots of himself at mummy and daddy’s house.

Complained about Clemmie sending him memes - made a reel about it.

A weird Valentine’s Day post that looked like an ad for Heinz condiments.

Can’t shop for the house without having to call home.

Several posts/stories with an undertone of resentment to Clemmie and his daughters.

Lame pancake day post - so lame I’m not sure we even discussed it?

Posts about dry January then posts about drinking at the Rugby in February.

More exploitation of his daughter’s diabetes

Complained about the sleeping arrangements when he stayed with his brother.

We had a peek at the competitive gift buying of Clemmie, Swim Tits et al. A butter mould was mentioned. Yawn.

Swimtits wore a hideous blouse.

Please add anything I’ve forgotten!

A butter mould was mentioned.

Sounds like his most riveting content in years.

I hope it was to make a butter cock.

(yes I know it's a generic bird, but just go with it)

Latest stories/post - MAMIL central . The music on his post is so cringe.

No congrats from mummy on his post yet but a couple of porn bots have commented:

Spoiler: Porn bots

The race was on the 25th Feb, did he rush back from Bristol for it?

 

[Behelzabobs]

Aw is this the person constantly moaning about his kids and trying to find time for himself in his busy work-life-kids-ungrateful wife-dogs universe


and how vain/self absorbed do you have to be to post a photo of yourself straight to camera in this sort of setting after posting a more natural one of yourself scoffing pizza

I’m not sure he posted about the trip to Mummy and Daddy’s in real time per se so he could have been back home that weekend already.

But why take a week to post about an event that has now been and gone for another year? Other than waiting for the professional pics to be released?

God he bloody loves himself doesn’t he

Even if I didn’t know what a terrible personality he has, I would still find his face really really irritating.

 

[Bizziebody]

Such a smug sneer on his dial.

FOD and MOD's friend PandoraPaloma needs her own thread. Her posts are absolutely hilarious (unintentionally, I assume). Her latest is yet another word salad of nonsense. But she talks about who you surround yourself with. And the PODs (parents of daughters?!) are those people. Brilliant stuff.

I know - she is such a charlatan and she talks absolute shite!

I signed up for one of her free Zoom word salad calls where she tries to get you to sign up with her business coaching. She was promising that if you work with her you could achieve a 6 figure product launch. I had a quick look at her on companies house. She has her name as director of three companies. One appears to be defunct. Two of them show her as director with 2 other people and they've got a couple of hundred quid in the bank. She has a third company which looks to be turning over around 25k as declared on her micro company accounts. Obviously it's impossible to say what she's paying herself from that but she certainly does not appear to be someone who can substantiate claims such as this:

"I’ve invested £50,000 in my self and business development this year and as a rule I invest 10% of the ROI I desire to see in revenue each year."

"Whether you’re just starting out, aiming for consistent 10k months, or eyeing that 6-figure mark and beyond, growing your audience and building the know, like and trust factor is key for driving sales."

"I celebrated a 25k sales day eating burgers with my daughter"

Hopefully not too many people fall for her business coaching BS. It has such a scammy whiff about it. However she did have LOADS of people on her freebie Zoom call, I'd say about 40 people. Lots of them seemed to be businesses or life coaches themselves. A few looked like sole traders in the wellness world (reiki practitioners for example)

FB and IG are down…remember the time Sly freaked out because he couldn’t post a sponsored ad at exactly 8pm? Good old days.

 

[EddieBeds]

Urgh his latest post is filmed using that creepy as duck hidden kitchen camera. Really freaks me out that he has that camera in his house and for what purpose?

Don’t get me wrong I suspect this one was heavily staged with Clemmie for the purposes of his post and stories but that kitchen camera is weird.

That is staged, clemmie sounds like a really bad actor, but there’s nothing natural about that little show

Just catching up, thanks for the shiny new thread @EddieBeds!

His latest cycling post is quite something.

"My girls don't really understand my passion" - I mean, what an unpleasant way to open the post? He could post about his bike race without taking a pop at them for not paying his hobby enough attention. How many times has he been disparaging and dismissive of the things THEY like, when one could definitely argue it's more a parent's job to nurture the children's hobbies and interests than the other way around.

So I guess that's another three overseas cycling trips in the coming months as well as some more UK ones no doubt, plus all the training, organisation, maintenance, posting on Strava, etc. "Big challenges" means big amounts of planning, training and more removing himself from his responsibilities at home. Then he'll no doubt still bleat on about not having any time to himself.

Any time he puts "FYI" it makes my teeth itch, but two things here: 1) his assumption that other people aren't doing things they love, and need HIM and HIS CYCLING to inspire them, and 2) no it's not as easy as just taking "that first step" for a lot of people, for a huge variety of reasons.

The whole post reads like an inverted "tit sandwich" - "my family are unappreciative shits / look how brilliant I am / you're all lazy shits"!

Very creepy but that’s him all over. Some of the comments are odd. Someone said if their husband moves another woman in when she’s dead then she’s told the kids to sell the house. Another commenter said (about Clench) “She’s mental, mate”

 

[Axatogrind]

Why put that sort of conversation out there where their children can watch it?

I would have been really upset as a child or teen to hear my parents discussing my mum being dead

such a weird video - amazing how even in this incredibly scripted 30 seconds he couldn't think of anything clever or funny to come back with

The two of them come across as such try-hard, dull as duck bores thinking they’re being zany by discussing this, all conveniently captured on that horrible intrusive camera set up they have in their kitchen. She’s every bit as vile as him

How old are the twins now? 8 or 9ish? I don't know about others but it wasn't until mine were at secondary school and were developing independent social lives that I could start to get some extra time for my own hobbies etc. Even then it was a bit unpredictable and certainly didn't include multiple trips abroad without them, daily training, weekends & full days away etc.
