![]() Yes, It’s Still Creepy if Brad Pitt Does It So since this has come up yet again, let’s talk a little about just what makes somebody creepy and – more importantly – why it would still be creepy if it were Leonardo DiCaprio hitting on them. Natalie? Are you ok? Blink twice if you need help… Others wanted to defend an older man’s right to creep on younger girls, insisting that many women would be thrilled by an older man giving them attention. But many – particularly from the Red Pill and Incel crowds – decided to turn this into the new cause célèbre of one of the oldest and hoariest clichés: it’s only creepy if you’re not hot.Īmusingly, being a famous celebrity hasn’t kept people from calling Moby a creeper for his – ahem – “relationship” with Natalie Portman. Many folks defended the original poster, insisting that perhaps he was just awkward and they were unnecessarily cruel to someone who repeatedly refused to leave when summarily dismissed by disinterested girls nearly half his age. But while the guy approaching them was pretty clearly in the wrong – even his wingmen were trying to drag him away – a multitude of people decided that the young women were, in fact, the assholes in question.

One of the closest things I have to a guilty pleasure is the relationships.txt twitter feed. And that’s between you and your Google history, chief Everyone has their guilty pleasures: things that they do that they would probably refuse to admit to in public.
