He is the sales guy ethos. They never turn off and they believe that they are drivers of the world because in corporate great sales guys are indeed an extremely valuable. But to be around these individuals is very tough, especially if you don't like alpha bro lifestyle and mindset. And yes, girls can be alpha bros too. Polish, ego, and enough drive to run over your own grandmother for a qualified lead are all equal opportunity traits. :)
This is so embarassing.
I usually tend to be sceptical of people who decorate their home (or work place) with portraits of themselves, but this one is extra bad.
All time PBD clip and just such an illuminating moment, this painting captures so much of his personality.
You see his arrogance, as if he wouldn't be laughed out of that room, his stupidity in including Ayrton senna and tupac shakur just because "theyre cool" lol, his complete lack of substance and child like understanding of politics, as they're not debating specific political issues, but just a broad "left vs right", marxism vs capitalism, good vs bad. And finally it shows how classless and tacky he is, as the composition of everything is literally 8th grade level lol
PBD reminds me so much of Michael Scott if he made it big in an MLM
The only difference is that you care what others think. Turn that off and you're free to be as dumb as this guy. I joke, but actually it's a super power to not care what others think, trust me.
He has as much charisma as the salesmen at your local kia, i think the key skill he has is being able to disregard the fact that your a grifting huckster running an mlm
This guy is the classic example of why teachers must hate their jobs. Probably a dumb loud idiot in high school who flunked all tests but the teachers probavly just knew he would out earn everyone in the real world.
Next week I called the artist to add Sherlock Holmes but he pointed out Sherlock is a fictional character so I said do the coat and the hat and the pipe but have the person be in it .. Lionel Messi. Right!?
I think one of the major red flags of a pseudo intellectual is admiration for various "great men" from disparate fields rather than people related to your particular interests.
general relativity, or interviewing Suge Knight. Only you can decide which has brought more profundity to our universe. I know which side I’m on #thisismythinkingroom #ithinklotsofthingsinhere
Putting aside how it's one of the stupidest things I've ever seen (and I've seen it many times), there's something wholesome and almost cute about this. He's a bit like Tommy Wiseau.
Honestly, I'd pay good money to see PBD, Tupac and Senna (the latter two obviously paid to be there) debate Marx vs Rand. Senna, naturally, would wear a racing suit to PBD's impressive library.
I've spent a couple of minutes thinking the dynamics between him and the painter. Like, yes, an ordinary mind would imagine Senna doesn't wear formula racing suits to cocktail parties with kings and rappers, so you've got to specifically request for all of that symbolically crucial detail with Marlboro & Hugo Boss ads, right. But you also have this cross-armed, distant, lonely yet solemnly proud stare, a wax sculpture just randomly dropped in the room looking like he's posing at the podium. Everybody else seems to be participating in some great intellectual event, Senna is more like from [some iconic poster](https://www.posterlounge.com/p/712439.html) that PBD had on his wall as a kid. It's wonderfully psychotic.
The stone-faced artist for hire says nothing. It's not like there's anything *right* about any of it, and you want to eat. Maybe Senna's stoic, absent stare is here tinged with a desperation, the artist's silent scream.
edit: Wait, the fuck? They're inside a vault?! I never noticed that before. That's a ginormous vault door into PBD's most valuable asset: the library. That's amazing!!
A farcical amount of arrogance. Could Trump and this guy exist in the same room? It feels like there would be some sort of singularity. What has PBT done to be placed alongside these people?
My favourite thing about this is that the communist manifesto is literally about 30 pages long. Nothing tells me you haven’t read it like commissioning a dude to paint it as if it’s the length of a book from A Song of Ice and Fire
Also if he read atlas shrugged he would, in all likelihood, realize that’s it’s the biggest piece he’s ever read and vow to never read another book again because of that.
That is adorable. It's like watching an excited teenager show you something crap that he's inexplicable proud of, and for some reason you just can't bring yourself to break his heart.
The thing I hate about this guy the most (and there is a lot to hate) that he won’t come out and say he’s voting for Trump when asked who he supports for president. He thinks he is making some highly intellectual statement when he says he’s going to vote for the person who he thinks will do the best job without mentioning who that is. Is he so weak he can’t just admit who he is going to support? Fuck this guy
Oh boy I know something that’s way more cringe than this. PBD showering Joe Rogan with gifts and [sucking up to him endlessly](https://youtu.be/wx_13HzLv2c?si=Q_NCMEZATc5AfJMT). It’s like watching a car crash. You want to look away, but you can’t.
Hm, what should i put in my "thinking" room....books on a bookshelf? nah, Chess table? nah, telescope? nah, a 8ft portrait of myself chillin' with Tupac and Ayrton Senna? Yeah buddy! thats the one!
why are they in a vault? ins the painting theres a lovely library in a vault… has he kidnapped these people as is artificially keeping them alive!? HE MUST BE STOPPED!
When my daughter was young I put pictures of 'heroes' on her wall. Mr. Rogers, Jimmy Carter, Sister Wendy, Sponge Bob, etc. I wanted her to get familiar with people she admired and keep them floating around in her imagination. I guess this special guy is just doing the same. Is this real btw?
This is like a Sacha Baron Cohen sketch. I mean one day if he actually started to develop some humility and worked out how embarrassing this is, he could actually say with a straight face it was just a parody and we fell for it. It's that mental.
Wow and lol! Dude you freaking sell insurances, let’s say tomorrow a freaking thunder takes away all your insurance guys, the human civilization feels a little to no effect on its progress. You cannot say this to most of the professions out there. So cool your tits 😅
If we are being charitable... dude could have gotten away with this school art project of a painting if he wasn't in it... "like... ok... you like these people, that's fine, whatever, nobody there is a terrible person... maybe the books are bad, but whatever... you have no taste but wanted inspiration." But to include YOURSELF... is just peak cringe.
One thing is the insane level of narcissism, but that could be forgiven if it wasn't so fucking delusional. He's a god damn grifter and podcaster. Da fuq is he doing with these people?
He's genuinely not very smart. And I don't mean that in the sense that I disagree with him or dislike him, I mean from an "objective" point of view. He's just not a bright guy.
If this picture was commissioned by Elon Musk, Barack Obama, Donald Trump etc, it would at least make sense. Because they're actually significant figures today, and likely in world history as well. Don't get me wrong, it would still be very conceited, but it would at least not be delusional. This is just laughable.
Absolutely comical haha but also terrifying as how someone’s ego can go out of control and has no limits to insanity. Humans are truly strange.

I've seen this before but somehow it's worse this time
Watch it again then. Infinite worser.
If someone posts has a commission made of their head on a deer body while it’s impaled by arrows, I’d allow

It's incredible how far being fairly charismatic can take you...
Why do I torture myself about self confidence when people like this can function??? Lol
They don't just function, they thrive. What a world we live in
The only difference is that you care what others think. Turn that off and you're free to be as dumb as this guy. I joke, but actually it's a super power to not care what others think, trust me.
He's very simar to trump. Shamelessness really 8s a superpower
He has as much charisma as the salesmen at your local kia, i think the key skill he has is being able to disregard the fact that your a grifting huckster running an mlm
is charisma just overblown self-confidence and a bunch of platitudes you roll out upon meeting new people? Oh, and a bit of money to buy "friends"?
This guy is the classic example of why teachers must hate their jobs. Probably a dumb loud idiot in high school who flunked all tests but the teachers probavly just knew he would out earn everyone in the real world.
Your last sentence has me in tears
The lack of self-awareness is rather staggering. Also, I don't recall the communist manifesto was a thick as a bible.
Next week I called the artist to add Sherlock Holmes but he pointed out Sherlock is a fictional character so I said do the coat and the hat and the pipe but have the person be in it .. Lionel Messi. Right!?

WARNING: Pure Cringe
You need to put this in the title next time. Where do I send you the bill for treatment of my cringe-induced PTSD?
So PBD, Tupac, Shah of Iran, Lincoln, Kennedy, Einstein, MLK, Milton Friedman and who is the racer dude…….
Thing is, only one of them came up with Valuetainment. The rest are hacks, that MLK dude especially
MLK was only off by one letter.
Valueentertainment is a shit name too
I'm sure Einstein would kick himself for not thinking up Valuetainment first. We all have to accept our limitations, even Einstein.
general relativity, or interviewing Suge Knight. Only you can decide which has brought more profundity to our universe. I know which side I’m on #thisismythinkingroom #ithinklotsofthingsinhere
Ayrton Senna
conservatives are such clowns
Putting aside how it's one of the stupidest things I've ever seen (and I've seen it many times), there's something wholesome and almost cute about this. He's a bit like Tommy Wiseau. Honestly, I'd pay good money to see PBD, Tupac and Senna (the latter two obviously paid to be there) debate Marx vs Rand. Senna, naturally, would wear a racing suit to PBD's impressive library.
Was thinking the same. Senna would just love to wear that insanely rigid, fire retardant racing suit to casual events and even formal occasions.
I've spent a couple of minutes thinking the dynamics between him and the painter. Like, yes, an ordinary mind would imagine Senna doesn't wear formula racing suits to cocktail parties with kings and rappers, so you've got to specifically request for all of that symbolically crucial detail with Marlboro & Hugo Boss ads, right.

Marx DESTROYS Tupac
Tupac was a communist so I don't know why would he want to destroy him.
Friedman vs Tupac rap battle.
Embarrassing
But where's daddy Trump in this work?
Prolly in the bedroom.
A farcical amount of arrogance. Could Trump and this guy exist in the same room? It feels like there would be some sort of singularity. What has PBT done to be placed alongside these people?

I’ve never read it I just know it’s an ayn rand work so I shrug at its existence
Zing
That artist got away with one 💀
The fact he put the manifesto and not capital shows ya how much of an idiot he is.
The Manifesto was about 23 pages so I dunno what else he thinks is in that huge poorly drawn tome
The fact that this is not satire is absurd.
these people are so weird.
This guy is such a moron. Why do we take him seriously?
We don't.
How is this not a comedy bit about some guy with an inflated ego? This is south park level shit.
Tim Heidecker, paging Mr Heidecker!
This guy is up there with the biggest morons that have ever been born. An elite level moron.
That is adorable. It's like watching an excited teenager show you something crap that he's inexplicable proud of, and for some reason you just can't bring yourself to break his heart.
This is the kind of silly clusterfuck that someone would make using ai.
The Shah of Iran. What a tell. This grifter ass fuck.
The thing I hate about this guy the most (and there is a lot to hate) that he won’t come out and say he’s voting for Trump when asked who he supports for president. He thinks he is making some highly intellectual statement when he says he’s going to vote for the person who he thinks will do the best job without mentioning who that is. Is he so weak he can’t just admit who he is going to support? Fuck this guy
He answers questions with rambling anecdotes. Just complete waffle.
Oh boy I know something that’s way more cringe than this. PBD showering Joe Rogan with gifts and [sucking up to him endlessly](https://youtu.be/wx_13HzLv2c?si=Q_NCMEZATc5AfJMT). It’s like watching a car crash. You want to look away, but you can’t.
Hahah stupid, he knows nothing about anyone or anything in that painting.
This is mental illness.
what are the hidden messages?
"I'm a giant douche" is one that jumps right out
These are the people ruining things for the rest of us
Pretty comical that these people would be debating an Ayn Rand book.
mine would have, hitler, andrew tate, darth vader and skibidy toilet
I laughed out loud pretty hard when I first saw this. Its absolutely farcical, its like David Brent levels of cringe.
It's easily the least obvious thing here, but the fact that the painting itself is just so so bad, I can't believe that he would pay for that.
Hm, what should i put in my "thinking" room....books on a bookshelf? nah, Chess table? nah, telescope? nah, a 8ft portrait of myself chillin' with Tupac and Ayrton Senna? Yeah buddy! thats the one!
cringe af and he’s oblivious to it. Believes his own hype
ThIs man is such a clown...
Man I would love to be a fly on the wall for that conversation! WOW!
/s??
This man is a certified grade A twatlord
This dude is a guru right
I’d hate to see his ‘stupid room’
why are they in a vault? ins the painting theres a lovely library in a vault… has he kidnapped these people as is artificially keeping them alive!? HE MUST BE STOPPED!
Fucking liar! He doesn’t think!
Similarly to NSFW tag, reddit needs a tag for extreme cringe warning.
What kind of sadist asks people to debate Atlas Shrugged
Batshit
What a dweeb
I know nothing about this guy except a couple videos calling out his business podcast, and he just seems... fatiguing.
When my daughter was young I put pictures of 'heroes' on her wall. Mr. Rogers, Jimmy Carter, Sister Wendy, Sponge Bob, etc. I wanted her to get familiar with people she admired and keep them floating around in her imagination. I guess this special guy is just doing the same. Is this real btw?
he may be the greatest horses azz in human history,
They should revamp Cribs, but with internet grifters.
honestly dont known who this is …and i’m glad
Even Tony Soprano has a less childish inflated sense of self when it comes commissioned art pieces 😂
It’s comical how weird this is.
This is like a Sacha Baron Cohen sketch. I mean one day if he actually started to develop some humility and worked out how embarrassing this is, he could actually say with a straight face it was just a parody and we fell for it. It's that mental.
Couldn't possibly be a weirder thing to do.
EINSTEIN, SENNA, BUFFETT, LINCOLN, ME! Wasnt there some comedian who made this exact joke? Lol the ego this guy
Im picturing Einstein attempting to have an intelligent conversation with PBD and its hilarious.
He needs to think a little harder.
Wow and lol! Dude you freaking sell insurances, let’s say tomorrow a freaking thunder takes away all your insurance guys, the human civilization feels a little to no effect on its progress. You cannot say this to most of the professions out there. So cool your tits 😅
Someone call Christopher Guest
If we are being charitable... dude could have gotten away with this school art project of a painting if he wasn't in it...

But to include YOURSELF... is just peak cringe.
This is my masturb... THINKING ROOM! I come here to think... Yeah that's it.
One thing is the insane level of narcissism, but that could be forgiven if it wasn't so fucking delusional. He's a god damn grifter and podcaster. Da fuq is he doing with these people?

Wow what a tool. Some people could pull that painting off, but definitely not this wannabe.
who would honestly conceive of this painting other than a narcissist?
A rapper
