Some notes on the current state of Seth/DGR/TL:
- Seth says “we” a lot in reference to DGR but there is no we. He never takes advice from his comments, he never actually even acknowledges a comment unless it is praising him or “the channel”. He never runs with anyone (aside from very rare group runs, 1 or 2 a year), trains with anyone, acknowledges anyone unless they will say on camera that they watch the channel (whereas Sage for example has collab’d with Spencer [TAS] when he was in the area and also pulls people up who are just fellow runners (as opposed to viewers) and says hi). Seth is the very opposite of a “we” person. He is only interested in those who will affirm his views and require no acknowledgement if he steals their idea. If it’s not a one way relationship he’s not interested.
- He has zero ability to give some shine to anyone else. Look at how awkward and disinterested the chat with his brother was.
- There was a comment a couple of weeks ago that used the term “toxic positivity”. This is Seth in his relationships to a T. People like this are masking their true feelings and it rarely ends well when they finally come to the surface. TL is probably the worst for this. She seems like the kind of person who will one day stub her toe on a table and have a full expletive laden meltdown.
- Perhaps from having kid after kid and not having a present adult partner, TL has adopted kid speak to Seth. A lot of asking rhetorical questions and wording like you use with an infant. “Do we think it’s a good idea to run 20 miles when you can’t sit down..? You sure..? Ok little one, off you go…” I mean, his IQ appears to be that of a child so it’s probably the best way to get across to him but still.
- Considering everyone here predicted he would end up seriously injured, my next prediction is in about a week and a half to two weeks, once the fake positivity wears off, views drop and the reality of a couple of months on the sidelines sets in, we’ll see the reemergence of stubble unhinged Seth.
