Pathos or Self Parody?

As promised.

Man. I watched his video:
Not just drugs, bad drugs. That was honestly hard to endure. It reminded me of nothing more than David Hasselhof begging for more cheezeburger:>
Here's my take:

FIRST to agree with "jumped the shark". Definitely bad drugs - up until all hours of the night and wildly flailing about. Doesn't have the "meth face", but that can take a little while to acquire.

Rob Dawg said...

Yeah. I don't know that much about meth except for gauntness and bad teeth.

The room was weird. Nothing personalized. Clearly much was staged. The contour pillow and leopard print were meant to troll for instances.

I don't want to watch. I don't even think I want to know.

He's desperate for the old days of IAFF. He got all the attention he craves and, in the end, even got a decent bit of money for the site.

What he doesn't understand is that it was a bit of a fluke - right place at the right time. He did play it well at first, but as he ran out of things to blog about, he turned more and more to baiting for a response. It got old pretty quick.

Now, he's STARTING with baiting. He has no story to tell and only the haterz to read his drivel. The site will hang around for a while, eventually turning into a more inclusive version of CaseyHaterz.com.

It's a predictable path - he'll keep it going for a couple weeks, hinting at "big news to come" to get page hits, then he'll start running ads on the side. He'll never get the page hits he once had and it will dry up and go away before the end of the year.

I'd been chearing for CS to return, but it's a sad shadow of the IAFF days - he was a one trick pony. Time for him to fade off to z-list obscurity. (or jail - I'd be rather please with that result!).

Casey blogging from jail. I like it.

"My new roommate has been giving me "vitamins" everyday. I must admit I am feeling much better even if my new tits hurt."

Warning, have mind bleach ready.

Rob Dawg said...

Seriously, I just don't want this to be some pathos morality play with a tragic ending. If he does something to himself the haterz will be blamed. Actually anything bad and the haterz will be blamed. Worse I my view is if any of this "works" because when it stops working as we all know it will only bad things can happen.

I can see if the authorities show up aat my door. "Something bad happened to Casey? Then I suppose yo need me to testify how law enforcement and social services were criminally negligent in pursing their duty. Will you need me to talk about individual officers and elected officials or just your entire department in general?"

Unknown said...

In all honesty -- not baiting with the "Casey" handle -- the fact that multiple law enforcement agencies have doen nothing about this fraudster is maddening.

The fact that his parents seem perfectly content to let their 26-year-old bum son mooch off them in perpetuity, without putting their feet down at some point, is maddening.

The fact that Casey himself spends every day boasting about his circumstances and thumbing his nose at law enforcement and responsible citizens is sickening.

The fact that he has shown no remorse, and has done *nothing* to rectify his situation is sickening. I can't speak for anyone else, but I may just pop a bottle of champagne if he ever gets indicted. Both he and his troll supporters are beyond infuriating.

Unknown said...

I'd also like to add, whether it was drugs/alcohol or just lack of sleep -- it's pretty clear he is legitimately mentally ill. I am not a psychiatrist, but am reasonably confident that most professionals would diagnose him with either bipolar disorder or pathological narcissism.

His parents seem to be in denial over this. And if it's actually bipolar, which is treatable, that's pretty sad... because their denial and refusal to seek help for him is destroying what little future he ever has left.

@Dawg,
I found a new doggy photo for your blog.

I don't see how this ends in any form but tragedy.

I was off this comment board for a few months, and when I returned to reading, casey was leaving comments. If it wasn't casey it was a very petty person taking continuous shots at casey (i could have missed the joke). Almost all comments had some self deprecating joke to them in a desperate attempt to roll with the joke or to get a reaction. I think it bothered him to be ignored when he'd bait people. I agree that therapy would be good for him. I would also say that for him to leave the public eye and internet would be a great step. Unplug.

No comment. ;-)

The purpose of "Pseudo-Casey" was to keep the emotions hot, and continually remind everyone that this career criminal still roams the streets a free man.

With the actual Casey back online, it turns out I couldn't even begin to parody him as well as he himself can. :-p

Akubi said...

@Dawg,
You Sir need a new dog-related icon.
At 25 years of age KC is already a sad parody of himself. Judy Garland had way more pre-self-parody time and created Liza too – which might explain his Mocha-ish fans.
Casey is a Dada experiment in need of a reference point.

Son of Brock Landers said...

@Benoit

Thanks for the explanation.I had no clue. When I came back and saw him posting comments, i either thought parody or desperate attempt to be noticed.

Unknown said...

Rob, you want actual self-parody? The real Casey just posted on his blog:

"Just finished my dinner of fresh baby spinach leaf salad, red ripe tomatoes and velvety green avocado thinly sliced on top with excellent Bragg’s Organic Vinigrette Dressing. Mmmmm… "


My "flamboyant" parody was obviously misguided. He's clearly as straight as an arrow. ;-p

w said...

What's the problem? Sounds like he went to Trader Joe's.

anonymous said...

I would bet Casey never gets charged with any crime. There's many flippers who did as bad if not worse than what he did. Nothing has happened to them. Even the ones who stiffed banks for over $1 million.

It wouldn't surprise me to see Casey take himself out on live cam ala Budd Dwyer.

Akubi said...

in my fishy treats.

Unknown said...

Correction... Mommy went to Trader Joe's to buy her precious Snowflake the expensive organic plants and fruits that he eats.

He could've just said "I had a salad"; he purposely gay-baits his readership to generate comments.

Doesn't that kid look like KC without highlights?

Lost Cause said...

Meth would explain a lot, but how do you explain the stupidity of this guy? I don't think it is youth.

I don't wish him ill. I really don't know what to think. But I am tired of it already. I think there are more important ways to spend my time. The trainwreck is over, and the flames are almost out.

So who was FakeCasey? I don't think it was Snowflake¤.

Lou Minatti said...

Nor do I. It's tragic enough already, with a busted marriage and a family that is going through a lot of stress. But the way I see it Casey LIKES the attention we give him, even the negatives. He thrives on it. His nightmare is when we no longer care.

Re-read my comment at 6:49 PM. :-)

Rob Dawg said...

If I read it right Casey got 4000 shares of Goldspring at 6/10ths of a cent. Worth a couple grand now.

Lost Cause said...

Hey Benoit™ it sounds like you at least inspired the name TruCasey.

Rob, maybe you will share in a bounty of comments?

Arthur Wankspittle said...

I think he got $4000 worth at about 3/10th of a cent. He has since sold and bought back but hasn't told us at what price. He has to be living off something, plus he bought a car ($4000), claims to have met some payments and is paying rent. Haterz reckon he has a new laptop in that video, plus where's the video camera from? My guess is he's taken out a bit short of $10,000.

H Simpson said...

Couldn't take more than 45 seconds of that crap. Did Homeless Guy come over as a guest?


Could it be the reality that G is never coming back has settled into his little brain.

At least someone was saved.

Anyone think we all ought to write to that TV intervention program to request they fix that boy's head?

We could watch the Serin family in action on TV.

Win-Win!

Unknown said...

No... in fact, his latest post consists of a 37-minute rambling video monologue in his car, one theme of which is that he's still hoping she comes back, and he'd still be willing to kill the blog if she wanted.

An intervention alone wouldn't help. He needs legit psychiatric treatment on so many fronts.

Unknown said...

testing....

pjm said...

oh, give him a break.
He had been up all day without any naps!! LOL
