REMINDER: the automanic scheme is another desperate attempt for Fat to "take advantage of the times"

Pat's biggest accomplishment in life is getting ~45k twitter followers (and perhaps whatever voodoo he did to PCJ). The reason he has these followers is because he tweeted a topical "thought experiment" about abortion rights. Consequently, Pat believes the only way he can achieve any form of success is through having his ear to the ground, being in the know, etc., and then exploiting this information for self-gain/revenge at his HS teachers.

This is clearly evidenced in the "About" page on that abortion of a website he has.

For instance, Wheeler, in what is truly a near unintelligible article ("My own daily driver is a 2008 I’ve owned since 2012 with 165,000 miles – double the longest I’ve ever held onto a vehicle before, but still short of the average of nearly 12 years as of 2021!"), reveals through some form of ESP that cars are getting more expensive and there is something called a "chip shortage" across the world:

There are many reasons for this. New cars are more expensive and complex than ever before. Plus, chip shortages are hitting new car inventories and driving up prices in the used market.

The "There are many reasons for this." is apropos of nothing. I guess an easy way to introduce a new idea in writing is refer to something you mentioned previously, even if you never actually mentioned the thing you are referring to.

Nonsensical writing aside, beneath the idiocy lies a belief that soon there is going to be this big market for people who are going to get all passionate about auto-maintenance.

But where are they going to get this information?! Surely, there needs to be some knight in shining Armor All (take that one Pat, you hack) to provide the coveted insights into maintaining your car -- a true automobile expert. Someone who "was conceived on the bench seat of a ’32 Ford Deuce Coupe rat-rod at a drive-in showing of American Graffiti."

Anyway, I guess the mission of the blog sums it up pretty well.

Someone from either here or KF said that autos is one of the few remaining journalism industries where you can make some money. There's an ever-present demand of mostly dudes who wanna read car shit, at least until we invent personal spaceships.

Torque seems to be anti-nostalgia, ignoring all the midlife crisis dads who buy the red 1993 Dodge Viper they had a picture of in their bedroom. Instead he wants to shill for major car companies and be really strongly supportive of "modern" cars. Except Tesla because Musk bad.

It's clear Torque is peacocking to get noticed and hired by one of these car companies, preferably Ford. I'm guessing he wants a job managing one of their twitter accounts, he doesn't want an office job working in marketing or advertising. He wants to fart on his couch and tweet "the new Mustang is simply breathtaking" while collecting a six figure salary and company car.


Your daily dose of adrenaline just pulled up. #NissanZ #MadeForThrill

Does that not sound like a Torque tweet? He could do that. If we weren't around to ruin any potential opportunity, he could totally do that.

Ah, interesting. The idea of making it as an attempt to showcase his skills for a larger company makes more sense — slightly less than delusional than him thinking he can do it on his own. Niki could have an easier time deluding herself with that narrative too.

I can’t believe I’m still astounded by this stuff. In his first blog, purportedly written in March, he references his third blog that supposedly was posted in June.

Not to be all autistically achkkkshully, but I will anyway.

There is/was a "microchip" shortage due to supply chain issues with asian countries during covid. It also affected predictive modeling as people were working remote more and car purchases plummeted. Certain processors and other components were affected. Ironically this meant mostly that satellite radios didn't come preinstalled anymore in most models ( :image_9253: ). It is also hard to get raspberry pis as a tech example.

I have no knowledge of how predictive modeling works for car manufacturing, but large data analytics companies can change course in a month or two. If you were in the US during march 2020 (eurofags don't @ me), you probably noticed it took Amazon about 6 weeks to be able to get 2 days shipping back to normal. This was partially due to the predictive modeling amazon uses. The only reason they can get shit to you so quickly is they predicted what you would buy in an aggregate 6 months before you bought it so it was in a warehouse near you. Covid blew all that up , so the machine learning needed enough data to re-calibrate.


I'm assuming this relates to cars as well. The demand plummeted so the orders for 2 years in the future were based of models during the height of covid. there's an issue in data analytics with "long tail distributions" ,which is what is happening. Long tail is basically some rare or weird occurrences fuck all your machine learning and AI predictions.





I'm sure some fat dummy with a HS education and broken word press blog template could explain it better though.





~~ok faggot what's next ~~

when will the patrickbux shortage end and quasi get paid tho?

To me, the funniest thing about this is that he's like D-list popular (maybe not even) on one of the worst social media platforms for monetization. If he had almost 50k subscribers on Youtube and he was putting out regular content and getting views, he could monetize that and make some money. I think maybe he could on Instagram and Tik Tok as well. I'm not sure about FB or any of the others.

But in my limited experience with Twitter (I'm not a heavy user like Torque, who's a heavy user in multiple ways), I don't see people shilling products for money or anything like that. I think maybe he's banking on being able to sell a 50k follower count to another publisher to try and get the dumb Tiny Tim book published but I don't know that anyone in their right mind would bother. One look at his previous sales and it's obvious those followers don't translate to book sales.

I guess what I'm getting at is he's terrible at everything. Fat too.

If Pat ran an official twitter account, he would no child his way into getting shitcanned within 3 hours.

I think it's more that he's surrounded by high achievers - his brother is a legit scientist, and his cousin seems to have a decent and honourable military career. The only way ol' 1.2 Target Dropout can feel like he's worth anything is by larping online. Unfortunately, we keep calling him out on it, and so he tried starting a new, anonymous blog - and then Fatricked it up.

There's nothing like using a dying platform (Twitter) to shill for another dying platform (Wordpress Blogs) to try and score a dying job (writer) with a dying brand (Ford).
Like everything, Pat is 5-10 years too late to the party. When he joined twitter it had some success stories of comedians getting gigs / specials from their posts, grifter activists like Shaun King and Bishop Talbert Swan getting fame, and other venues but that is long over. Social Media is all visual now with “influencers” getting paid big money for getting high view counts and millions of followers on Instagram and Tik Tok.

Of course Piggy thinks it’s still 2012 and people care about twitter. The company couldn’t even prove true active user numbers for Elon Musk because they know the numbers are nowhere near accurate due to bots and long dead accounts. He’s such a retard he thinks having 47k followers on Twitter is a huge deal and he’s very famous so he should be just giving high paying jobs for his oinks.

Another flop in Ricks storied career of sitting around and not really doing much. Imagine how mortified he was when he realized he copy/pasted that Torque Wheeler tweet to a rascal.
initially mortified when realizing he c+p the wrong lines
then smugness when he tried to parlay it into some sort of comeback and the stlaker hadnt picked up on it
relief for the day and half or so before it was noticed
then it come crashing down
would love to know how he found out that everyone knew.

he reads kiwi and here but did he read it before he was txt'd?
If he read it then he would have been sitting there seething, waiting for the txt that mentions it first. Knowing it was coming, just when?
Or he picked up his phone, ready to c+p his stlaker reply to a rascal giving him some morning business. His eyes lock onto the words 'Torque Wheeler' and instantly his day is ruined.

The best part of it all is that he wanted to keep this secret. He posts all sorts of mundane and self aggrandizing bullshit and due to his own drunkedness/stupidity he leaked the information needed to find it, directly to his stlakers. His own stupidity awards him another L

etc.

I still think this is a pure scam of some sort. I think this is a fake blog/business endeavor. Either he's faking it and larping as another satisfied Posts By Ghost customer to fluff her numbers or it's some kind of tax scam and he's claiming the hovel as his business address. It's a long shot, but I still think that "Tomlinson Enterprises, LLC" business that was registered a month ago in Wisconsin is him and it's a scam.

They're both grifters who are terrible with money. Niki's bankruptcy, the massive PPP loans they took that were forgiven, the constant frivolous purchases and vacations, etc. Even signing away Annabelle was a financial move. Plus they're both "self-employed" and Pat's career has consisted of things like used car salesman and health/life insurance policy salesman. This Automanic thing is just another grift of his. And it's all because he won't just go get a fucking job.

Forgot about Shaun King. Bitch went into hiding after I doxxed him three times.
