This is the modern version of “I was just following orders” watch out for people like this twat.
As bill hicks ver eloquently put it, I will turn my back while the struggling artist makes ends meet but it’s not as if jay Leno is exactly short on cash.
I believe this is the full joke: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VXa7NrIUjY
Thank you. That put it in better perspective.
It’s rule of acquisition 109 and it refers to dignity. What are you, a hu-man?
(Dignity and an empty sack is worth the sack.)
Paraphrasing to avoid royalties is a well honored Ferengi past time my dude.
But reciting the rules incorrectly? That’ll be two strips. Obey the Grand Proxy!
A onlyfans account would be more dignified than shilling for a company responsible for climate change
That’s a comment on the video this is referencing to. And they ain’t wrong.
Shilling for the climate crisis is even worse than being a regular influencer fka blogger.
Context?
Kari Byron recently starred in Shell’s video that’s supposed to convince everyone that fossil fuels are great.

That’s really, really, disappointing. What a shame.
More than 17k downvotes* vs. not even 1000 upvotes 🤘
Man that’s really disappointing to see. I literally background watch mythbusters every night as I’m going to bed and I’ve loved the show since I was a kid. Hope the remainder of the crew continues to maintain their integrity.
At least Adam Savage is a good dude. He is actively running his YouTube channel, and often answers various questions including personal ones.
And I at least know that he has actively tweeted in support of LGBTQ+ rights. I highly doubt he would sell out for big oil.
Adam savage was openly supportive of trans people in like the aughts. He’s just been consistently a great guy
This is really great to hear!
I live in San Francisco and ran into him at brunch a few weeks ago - he was super friendly when I came up to talk to him and super patient and sweet. I was super nervous that meeting him would ruin my image of him but it is still intact :)
Aww I love hearing positive stuff like this about people
It probably helps that he’s probably a millionaire and has some tremendous life achievements under his belt.

Notice how no one spent any consideration for the fact that she is a broke Actor as opposed to a Millionaire. Hate the message not the messenger.
I’m much more broke than she is and far less marketable. She didn’t need to do that.
Seriously, using that logic you can justify anything. There are gradations of “poor” and we all sell a little bit of ourselves to make money but just going all out to shill for oil companies in the midst of a serious climate crisis is beyond the pale.
Kari is less a poor exploited worker and more of an eager grifter. I wonder how much of this Kari really believes. Do we sympathize with every hack trying to sell a book or radio show?
You know nothing of her situation and are simply justifying being a dick.
Various sites estimate her net wealth between $1.5 and $2 million.
While that you can argue if that makes her rich, it definitely makes her a millionaire and she’s certainly not broke.
You have no clue what she owes nor whom. 45 was a billionaire despite owing the Russian Mob billions more than his holdings.
Surprised this is the first white knight comment I’ve found.
Jesus fucking Christ it’s 17 minutes
Thank you downvote pluggis, YIKES, I didn’t need to watch more than a second because I’ve never seen something bomb that low and still be up on YT.
Gross, thanks.
Gross, thanks.
Yikes. I really used to like her in Mythbusters.
Never meet your heroes.
I really feel that people really puts too much reverence into the words and actions of celebrities, and are disappointed when they are not the person who they appeared to be.
But, if you take a step back and actually think about it, you see these people on your screen every day, do you know who these people really are? Most of you have never met these people before in your life!
The person see on your screen in image and text form is not the actual person, but projections of the person behind the screen (a character, if you will). That’s what social media is, and that’s what all media are, you present your character to to the rest of the world and tries to sell the life of that character you made up. Of course, when the projection of the character in front of screen doesn’t match up with the person behind the character (Ellen, Cordon, Brand, now Kari Byron, etc.), of course you would feel cheated.
Maybe that’s why I’m here. I don’t want anything out of you other than to laugh at my shitty jokes, and I don’t really have anything to sell you other than some dumb movies. It’s rare to find that these days, and that’s really all there is to it.
After all, you are who you choose to be, so, I try to be someone better, someone you know that you can be proud of, and if you are still reading this, I do expect you to do your best, so I can be proud of you too.
I met Ben Heck at MRRF and he cooked me lunch. Nice humble guy that does a lot for the disabled gaming community. Now I know he’s not a huge celebrity but he’s been on TV and has had multiple shows.
Ben Heck seems cool as heck
He’s a friend of a friend of mine. He always seemed grumpy when I ran into him while the show was going. It was a grind. He’s much more chipper these days.
I do love that your username is a celebrity.
No, like all real celebrities on other social media platforms, I, actual Hollywood superstar Margot Robbie, also use my real name to promote my movies on this obscure technology forum.
After all, why would a celebrity ever lie to you about who they are?
Since I’m still definitely an idiot and love a few celebs out there still, I would be legitimately so happy if that were true and MR was a secret tech nerd.
Plot twist, it’s her mom’s account.
Hot neird mom I feel like that’s gonna be a porn category soon
Welp if it exists there is porn of it
Rule 34: There is porn of it. No exceptions.
Is it ok if i report this video for disinformation on youtube?
I mean you may as well
Can’t wait for her child to grow up and realize their mother shilled for Big Oil and they will suffer more than previous generations thanks to her.
A girl has to eat, but fuck…
Her net worth is north of $1.5 million. She doesn’t need the work to eat.
That seems really low for even a minor celebrity. But I imagine there’s some royalty from the show that will keep coming over the next few years.
I work in tech and between my wife & I, our networth is over $3MM. We’re in our 40s. A big chunk of that is in our house, which we paid much less for and it has appreciated over the last 5 years. This increase in networth due to the house we live in does nothing to improve our day-to-day life, it just makes property taxes higher. I absolutely still need to work to be able to put food on the table. I mean, I can probably afford to not work for a year or so, but if I live until 80+, I still have 40 years of expenses that I need to save up for. so I will need to keep working. There are also some nice things that I want to buy, like a solar panel system, which should help us lower our expenses over the longer term.
Well that’s a shame
