Maybe you shouldn't use the "leave Britney alone" dude for that given that what she went through was because we didn't listen to her or leave her alone.

Are we talking about the Home Improvement guy, or just someone with the same name?

Edit: holy shit that’s the guy we’re talking about. I know about the cocaine smuggling, but nothing else. What’s his deal?

I know about the cocaine smuggling

Oh man! You should read his book. It's really funny, and really entertaining. Or at least it was in the 90's. We've changed a lot as a society since then, so it could be wildly offensive for all I know. I just remember laughing my ass off while reading it, and making a bunch of mental notes about how to become successful.

"No Safe Spaces" is a pretty glaring red flag, but what else am I missing?

[-] OttoVonNoob@lemmy.ca 41 points 11 months ago

Shit Tim Allen's done/said? He was a coke smuggler who rated out his friends, Said being a republican in Hollywood is like "Being a Jew in Hitlers Germany" had a weird angry outburst on some girl about evolution and that's the stuff off the top of my head.

So he's an idiot. Did we like him for his intelligence or because he grunts well and was in that movie where he stole a garbage disposal?

[-] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 15 points 11 months ago

Did we like him, or did some people like his portrayal of certain characters in various comedies?

I'm sorry, but if it is life in prison or giving up the names of your dealers (not necessarily friends), I don't think many of us would've chosen differently. The statement about republicans in Hollywood is way over the line though. I scanned through his wiki page and it says that he condemned the Jan 6th attacks and was generally not impressed with how different republicans behave - so it seems there is at least some light.

I skimmed that page and couldn't see anything that really sealed him as a dick... Republican sure (bit wanky but there's plenty of them) and done time for drug trafficking (morally who really cares).

Just wondering what I'm missing?

[-] BananaPeal@sh.itjust.works 12 points 11 months ago

His name is literally Timothy Alan Dick.

[-] Themadwizardspeaks@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 11 months ago

Can't believe that completely slipped past me...

What Happened?

[-] WhiteRabbit_33@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I recently saw an ad for another installment in the awful franchise that is The Santa Clause.

I'm amazed people still watch Tim Allen let alone that many sequels into a well overdone concept.

[-] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

AFAIK the sequels were back to back, the show is a more recent addition to try and scrape a little out of his barrel of expiring fame.

[-] MedicPigBabySaver@voxpop.social 1 points 11 months ago

He is 4 sure.
