I'd be very interested in finding out how the police identified this guy. |
So would I actually, but I'm sure the answer will be as boring as just good Police work or someone dobbed him in after he bragged about it.

Being able to tie a tie is an essential man skill.
Like being able to use power tools (and hand tools), change a tap washer, change a car tyre and repair almost anything using gaffer tape, WD40 and cable ties. |
I have been a tradie for over 30 years and I can use all power tools and equipment but know f*c# all about how to tie a tie! I see no reason to learn as I don't ever where one! So I disagree on it being an essential man skill!

Dude,
Every man is sooner or later going to end up at a wedding (some as the victim, ehh I mean groom) or a funeral or in court.
You have to know how to tie a tie.

^ I find gaffer tape and WD40 very efficacious in tying a tie.
Of course, Im still wearing the tie I put on last month.....

I have been married for 34 years and have been to many weddings and funerals but I don't wear a tie!

You only get 10-15 for murder these days. When are you due for parole?

Spot on.
Kinda miffed that I was comprehensively wrong about him being a teenage idiot. |

"Spot on" bullshit in my humble opinion. Sound like he posts on VPT on Nicks Tavern.
So many poor male victims on this site it sounds like a whingers paradise.
Then again I think your were right in the first place: he is a teenage idiot who happens to be 31 and has managed in one fell swoop 42 to set back mens' grievances about being lumped as "all men" quite a deal.

I agree. That tie is awful. |
As is the knot. Looks like a loose double straight, which is less wankerish than a full Windsor I suppose but still....... |
My late Father ( he was never on time) used to tie my windsor knot. I'm a double straight up from my school days: Melbourne High School: forms 3-12.
When I was a senior manager I almost always wore a red tie (1990's).

I'm surprised you could do a double straight. (not surprised at the Power red tie)
I can't do a windsor or double straight because there isn't enough tie to let it hang properly. You're taller than me and have a fatter neck, so you must do the "fat mans tie" which finishes at the belly button or you have some trick I'm unfamiliar with.
I just do the single straight, or schoolboy knot.

Pretty much as expected, then... (maybe with some professional jealousy thrown in?)
I know its a bit unfortunate to make this generalisation given that Dixon was one herself, but god stand-up comedians can be insecure, immature, emotionally fragile types. Its an artform that certainly seems to attract more than its fair share of narcissists.

Actually, having looked at the guys Facebook, I may have had the wrong end of the stick he seems less like a garden-variety MRA than a tinfoil-hatted conspiracy kook x100. I guess youd have to have a pretty loose grip on reality to do something like this.
(BTW, if you want to see some more ugly humanity, check out all the threats of death/violence on his Facebook page. Orwell was tapping into something deep within human nature when he wrote the two-minutes hate sequences in 1984.)

Watch it buster.
I was a skinny minny when I was at school and when I was a manager (and when I was a smoker). My ties always went to the trousers.
Call me harry high pants
