If he expects to be on Pawn Stars, maybe he thinks he's going to get some free publicity. He'll get to tell the story of his plights and why he needs to raise cash to finance his brilliant music. Or screenplay. Or efforts to legalize prostitution (please, oh please, be that one).
He probably does have "flocks of women inquiring" if "Are you fucking serious?" counts.
Like someone said above, he must be tapped on cash. Between the Yovanna music video and his AGT "audition", he blew a LOT of money for him. Of course, he believes better days are always around the corner, so he probably hasn't realized he's dug himself into quite a hole. He thinks he's going to get a lot of money for his worthless trinkets, and he'll get on Pawn Stars and that will be the exposure he needs to get his big break.
Thinking casual or even parasocial relationships are more than they are is a characteristic of several disorders. The best example of this was his interactions with Erika. She flat out told him they were just friends, and the first thing he does is run off and post he's in a relationship with a model. Hell, he thought one of Farrah Abraham's aides liking his post meant she was obligated to go on a date with him. Of course, Russ being Russ, he didn't realize that even if she did meet with him, it would have been a heavily chaperoned, non-sexual photo op.
You are truly the Michelangelo of our times! (The artist, not the Ninja Turtle)
Russ could only dream of being as gansta as Samy.
It's a very apt comparison when dealing with mental issues like psychopathy and narcissism. It's why I am absolutely sure Russell has NPD and isn't just an arrogant twat. People with those conditions literally view other people as NPCs.
Absolutely spot on. He gets mad when people don't follow the scripts he's written for them. He did a "nice" thing for Taylor, so she was supposed to fall madly in love with him and fuck him blind. We all know the rest.
Mhm. It's the "mechanics" of the game. I did a nice thing for you, so now you're supposed to do something for me.
The attempt to ban brothels failed, and Russ took credit for it by writing some letters. In reality it failed because the organization behind the initiative had no support and the sex workers themselves spoke out against it and they were shocked because they thought all hookers hate their jobs.
women are friendly/neutral npcs. you do quests for them to increase your reputation level with them to the point where they adore you.
It was years ago, but when he got tossed out of a strip club for asking for sex, he posted an angry rant about the bouncer who discriminated against him. This was when he still had people willing to disagree with him who tried to explain that strippers aren't hookers, but you can imagine how well that went over.
Try being Canadian
Ahhh, the beginning of the Russell Greer rabbithole for so many people. Who would have thought back then that this event would be the catalyst for the hilarity and ridiculousness for years to come.
When I first starting following this thread, I figured he'd wise up after the Ariana Grande suit failed, and we'd never hear from him again. Boy howdy, was I wrong! And I'm glad I was! You can't make shit like this up! Russ's story would make a bad movie because people would find it utterly unbelievable!
Hamsteroid, you are not only too swole to control, but you have just perfectly gamesplained Russhole Greer down to a simple yet profound paragraph that cannot likely be topped. And you're a Photoshop savant just to round out the package.
