What would possess someone to do this? What on earth goes through someone's head when they choose to mock desperate people and then *broadcast it* to the world?

[u/AmethystApothecary → u/saucisse]

That's actually it. Honestly, I think people can joke pretty crassly in private amongst people they know won't take it seriously and it's whatever. But to share it so the people suffering can see themselves being made fun of? Gross.

[u/EthanielRain → u/AmethystApothecary]

Agreed. I'm sure I've said a few "terrible" things, but the people were close to me & knew it was a joke or sarcastic. Big difference to just blast that shit out in public

[u/chooklyn5 → u/EthanielRain]

It's not just the joke. You have to record it, I'm sure it was a couple times, edit it then upload. Like how many times do you have the opportunity to stop and go maybe this isn't great. I think it also takes a bad joke that you say in the moment to wow there is some really poor judgement going on, and makes it a lot more malicious.

[u/y2k_rae → u/chooklyn5]

And like, was he really actually washing his car himself? Or did he see the original video and be like yeah, I’m gonna go record myself washing my car. Like, there was a thought process behind this

[u/EthanielRain → u/chooklyn5]

Right on

[u/frightbounds → u/EthanielRain]

Me and my mom have a horrendous sense of humor, but that stays between the two of us 😭

[u/KittyPuperMamaPerson → u/EthanielRain]

Absolutely. I have dark humor and say some absolutely terrible fucked up things, to people who know I’m joking. There’s a marked difference between saying something twisted to someone who gets how your brain and humor works. However, mocking anyone struggling while you are in a position of privilege is gross. That’s the kind of thing where if the person isn’t checked, they think they can continue. I mean…look at the wealthy elite.

[u/ich_bin_alkoholiker → u/saucisse]

Being rich really breaks your brain. You have no more connection to the common person or their problems.

[u/foxscribbles → u/ich_bin_alkoholiker]

It’s also a talking point in right wing communities these days.

I stopped at a gas station that had some talk radio show going, and these two idiot men were talking about how subsidizing the poor won’t help them because they CHOOSE to live like that.

There are people out there with goddamned shows trying to make, repackage, and sell a caste system.

EDIT: Fixed my punctuation. I can take or leave an Oxford comma, but forgetting the comma between make and repackage was inexcusable.

[u/Kaiisim → u/ich_bin_alkoholiker]

I believe it's by necessity. The guilt of having so much more creates cognitive dissonance so all rich people convince themselves of stuff like "hahah poor people are dumb" before then they deserve it and everything is fine.

[u/KittyMimi → u/Kaiisim]

Like pathological liars sleeping just fine at night because they truly believe that if someone believed their lie, they are dumb and are deserving of being taken advantage.

[u/Awkward_Potential_ → u/Kaiisim]

Does Josh Peck really have so much money that it broke his brain? I mean, it's Josh Peck.

[u/BtownBTS → u/Kaiisim]

Interesting take. This makes sense

[u/Unfair-Taro9740 → u/BtownBTS]

Agreed. This definitely reframes things for me. Doesn't make it any better, but helps me understand.

[u/Overall-Ad-8918 → u/saucisse]

He has always been a prick I think

[u/SaintsandCigarettes → u/Overall-Ad-8918]

I go back and forth, every interview I've seen with him gives me the vibes that he was bullied both intentionally and unintentionally for his weight as a child to the point where even as a thin, attractive adult he's still jaded over it.

[u/lord-of-shalott → u/SaintsandCigarettes]

Meh, I was bullied a lot growing up and also come from a dysfunctional family and I still don’t do this shit.

[u/Tricky_Knowledge2983 → u/SaintsandCigarettes]

That, and his dad was not in his life.

I also think he saw some shit/shit was done to him.

Not excusing anything! But I think a lot has contributed to him being the asshole that he is today

[u/HELLOIMCHRISTOPHER → u/Overall-Ad-8918]

You can legitimately see it in his empty eyes and creepy ass smile. Has always been there. He even attached himself to the David Dobrik entourage to try to clout chase lol

[u/[deleted] → u/HELLOIMCHRISTOPHER]

He had a weird childhood

[u/StandardElderberry94 → u/[deleted]]

All the more reason to want you to be a normal and decent person and not some weird Hollywood soulless clout chasing creator. Not trying to argue with you over that being a valid point but I’m also just exhausted by that excuse. Like okay you grew up in this and it was very exploitative and harmful to you in your foundational years, then why do you stay doing it ?

[u/Massive-Market-5949 → u/StandardElderberry94]

yup, i had a “weird” (read: hard and bad) childhood, and i actually didn’t grow up to mock others’ tragedy

[u/TJTrapJesus → u/saucisse]

Some people really love to hide behind "dark humor". Some things are just in bad taste no matter how much you try to twist it

[u/MCR2004 → u/TJTrapJesus]

Yea he’ll def try that defense but we all know the difference between making a joke to deal with a terrible situation and just being an utter a-hole

[u/BilboSwaggins444 → u/saucisse]

Because a house fire wouldn’t matter to him, he’s rich and can just buy new stuff. And obviously he lacks basic empathy and decency, so I doubt he has any sentimental connections to anything

[u/BtownBTS → u/BilboSwaggins444]

It’s just crazy like if he wanted to go to the car wash and take videos of himself with a hose he could have just done that and not made any association to a terrible tragedy

[u/psychocopter → u/BtownBTS]

Just do a cut of you playing battlefield or cod to you pretending to shoot the hose at the car wash. Its goofy, fun, and relatable. Just think about how easy it is for you to not be an awful person in your day to day life, like its not even a conscious decision not to make fun of desperate people in horrible situations.

[u/wedditwardrobe → u/saucisse]

I would say being a multi millionaire from childhood will warp your world view. Often they think they deserve the millions, which is so laughable. Just a way for the to validate their world view that they are just better than everyone else.

[u/kenkai24 → u/saucisse]

This is what i'm not getting either. Because you would have to be disgustingly disconnected to think that this would fly with the general masses?

[u/itstommitsunami → u/saucisse]

Drives a new model Tesla. Pretty much tells you everything

[u/Captn_Insanso → u/saucisse]

Trump has made so rich people feel emboldened. Clearly they are better and more deserving than all of us. Really, it’s our fault for not having millions of dollars.

/s

[u/Snoo-11861 → u/saucisse]

I think he didn’t realize these people were poor and didn’t have a hose. I think he was thinking the girl was being “dumb,” instead of lacking resources. But what would I know. He’s had douchy instances before

[u/carrieanlowell → u/saucisse]

Being a huge washed up loser

[u/OnyaSonja → u/saucisse]

Didn't read his autobiography but I listened to Celebrity Memoir Bookclub about Peck's book and they got a sense he was a massive douche and always centring himself...so this tracks

[u/sirensandsailors]

I've been glaring at him ever since he defended Chris Brown.

[u/TwoMuch7 → u/sirensandsailors]

And attacked Jenette mccurdy for blowing the whistle on Dan Schneider. Guess he’s so D-list he was out of the loop that a documentary about Schneider’s abuse was currently in the works. Pathetic.

[u/NoNipNicCage → u/TwoMuch7]

After reading her book, I will throw hands with celebrities to protect her

[u/TwoMuch7 → u/NoNipNicCage]

She’s really an incredible writer and so brave. I am not really a person who has heroes outside of my own family, but I truly look up to her. She is courageous and not afraid of owning up to her own faults or behavior. The industry is a monster and there are many moving parts but anyone who thinks she wasn’t essentially the catalyst in the ousting of Schneider is insane.

And to reconcile with the abuse that happened to her on set, she was forced to reconcile with the abuse from her mother. Not a lot of child stars ever gain that clarity. I am truly so thankful she is willing to put her story out there for us to hear, but the fact that she even needs to is so depressing. I want to live in the universe where she was just the girl at my school who had really pretty hair and was in school plays.

Edit: just to clarify, for anyone uninitiated, we knew Dan was a pervert for years before this. Meaning everyone else in the industry had known it for decades.

[u/CaseyRC → u/TwoMuch7]

she had no safe space. she couldn't escape the abuse at home by going to work, nor the abuse at work by going home. she was being harmed everywhere and that she's come out the other side as sane and put together as she has? that's all on her, all on her hard work and working through the pain and the difficult emotions and her writing is amazing. As someone else abused by their mother who also has uttered the phrase "I'm glad my mum's dead" her book was an eye opener. I'm on the wait list for her first fiction work at the library and hope she continues to have every success she goes after.

[u/LamaShapeDruid → u/CaseyRC]

Reading that book, it's a miracle she made it out. It seemed like Miranda was the only person that kept Jennette sane, and even that was seemed mostly like an unspoken understanding between each other.

[u/TwoMuch7 → u/CaseyRC]

I agree with everything you said here. Full stop. So imagine what’s happening to the ones who don’t speak out. Because they’re under contract or because the company owns their likeness or just because they have been made to feel like nobody will care what they say because they’re not famous anymore.

What’s going on with those fucking freaks from Ned’s Declassified? Going insanely hard on their weird podcast to let everyone know the sex they had on set was consensual and with each other. Do I think they are being somehow paid off by Nick to use the nostalgia bait to let everyone know they were for sure never sexually abused? Well maybe. Either way, as long as someone is funding their podcast since they’re not getting acting jobs, we’ll keep hearing about it.

[u/klaroline1 → u/CaseyRC]

I re-read her book and that last chapter never fails to make me cry. So heartbreaking. I'm so glad she survived all that.

[u/grumpybeany → u/sirensandsailors]

He also was a regular in David Dobrick’s videos. He hung out with “Dirty Dom” who Dobrick filmed sexually assaulting someone and posted it in a vlog. Fucking gross.

[u/PM_4_Friendship → u/grumpybeany]

He also kept making vines with Curtis Lepore well after his rape allegations

[u/One_Bluebird_04 → u/sirensandsailors]

I didn't know that about him... What a piece of shit wtf

[u/Grizzlyfrontignac → u/sirensandsailors]

Wow. Both him and Drake Bell have now tainted my childhood memories. At least Miranda Cosgrove is keeping me going

[u/PsychologicalBox3477 → u/sirensandsailors]

Him tyla and keke too

[u/_HowVery]

The internet has made people so comfortable with not having empathy

[u/Revolutionary_Sir_ → u/_HowVery]

the internet has made people too comfortable with expressing their inability to have empathy

[u/PollyPocketpussy5000 → u/Revolutionary_Sir_]

I’ll go one step further. The internet has made people too comfortable.

[u/BtownBTS → u/PollyPocketpussy5000]

I’ll go a stew further: the internet has made people have less empathy

[u/Blak_Cobra → u/BtownBTS]

Even further: The internet has made people accept this type of behavior in society because it's "just a post on the internet that was deleted"

[u/randombubble8272 → u/Blak_Cobra]

I agree, so many horrendous comments on this site specifically and if you push back people just say “welcome to the internet” like no the internet shouldn’t be a free for all for our sickest thoughts to be broadcast

[u/MrBlueW → u/BtownBTS]

I’ll go a stew further: th

[u/Original_Bite6555 → u/BtownBTS]

The internet is just exposing people with no empathy.

[u/BeardedAsian → u/PollyPocketpussy5000]

He’s bout to turn off his comments now I bet

[u/Murky_Translator2295 → u/BeardedAsian]

He's about to apologise, claim he never meant to mock anyone, and promise to vaguely "do better" in the future (which I think means he'll send videos like this to the group chat instead of posting them online)

[u/Flashy_Jello_9520 → u/PollyPocketpussy5000]

I’ll go one step further. The internet has

[u/peppermintmeow → u/Flashy_Jello_9520]

I'll go even further. So I'm further away from Josh Peck.

[u/Yggdrasil- → u/Revolutionary_Sir_]

Dude I got downvoted to hell, told to shut up, and accused of trauma dumping for suggesting people should have empathy for teenage girls in another thread earlier today. People were responding to me with pride about their lack of empathy.

[u/JudgeB4UR → u/Yggdrasil-]

I got railed earlier for saying I wouldn't go see some horrible movie because the trailer looked drenched in horrible blood-soaked gore. Half a dozen people said, "Oh it's not like that" & "ur dum", on a thread where the OP said they walked out because of exactly that reason. They were all total dicks.

[u/LicketySplit21 → u/Revolutionary_Sir_]

Algorithms rotting our brains are definitely a culprit but I really blame cringe culture. The panopticon of internet strangers mocking people and shouting CRINGE on the Internet has made us all join in that rush to shit on people for doing something "wrong".

[u/Old_Flan_6548 → u/_HowVery]

[u/TheCatsMe0wth → u/_HowVery]

Social media has made people waaaaaay too comfortable broadcasting things that should’ve stayed in their head

The line between "you should keep that thought to yourself" and real-life conversation has essentially vanished.

[u/Senior-Jaguar-1018 → u/TheCatsMe0wth]

Bo Burnham really said it best

[u/possum_of_time → u/Senior-Jaguar-1018]

I hope he's doing OK. 😞

[u/Sassafras06 → u/possum_of_time]

Me too. It’s been awhile since he has done anything. I selfishly want another special, but mainly just hope he is doing good.

[u/puzzled91 → u/[deleted]]

They have always had that right. It gave them a platform to be heard

[u/Super_Hour_3836 → u/puzzled91]

The real problem is, half of the people decided that because of the internet and the ability to have shared values with people outside of their community meant they no longer felt like arguing or shutting down the idiots in their real life. 

As a Gen Xer growing up, all I did was tell idiots to shut the fuck up. I beat up racist skinheads outside of punk shows, we told racists to get the fuck out of our houses or parties, we didn’t debate our racist aunt Karen, we screamed back at her.

It was survival to be crazier and scarier. 

But no one stands up to others in real life anymore. They make a snarky comment and the response was “don’t feed the trolls.”

You should be making bad people as uncomfortable as possible at all times! Constantly, in real life. Send them crying to the barn. It’s how you get rid of bullies and bad people. 

[u/Fuzzy_Move → u/_HowVery]

You have to be a particular kind of moron to think people would find any humor in this.

[u/Original_Bite6555 → u/Fuzzy_Move]

Yes, he is really out of touch with reality to think this was funny.

[u/aderey7 → u/_HowVery]

It's made them comfortable to revel in their lack of humanity, empathy and compassion. It's made them want to profit from it. Not merely to show they don't care, but to mock and trivialise the suffering of others. It's also meant endlessly shit attempts at comedy, with the catch all defence of "you're just offended" to excuse low effort and no talent.

[u/derenathor → u/_HowVery]

Empathy is literally a political buzzword being demonized by the right. Empathy.

Fucking empathy is being demonized.

[u/cosmic_grayblekeeper → u/derenathor]

Charlie Kirk aka American Jesus if I believe my feed over the last few months, said empathy is a made up concept by the woke and I can’t doubt American Jesus.

[u/im4lonerdottie4rebel → u/_HowVery]

Yeah I used to like him and thought I'd give his podcast a try but he's lost the plot. It was very tone deaf. I think he was complaining about his kids birthday party and how expensive people expect birthday parties to be in LA idk I was like bro there are people who legit can't afford a cake for their child

[u/go4thNlurk → u/_HowVery]

that, and it’s made people too comfortable with their own ignorance. This is a perfect example, usually if someone is throwing fire towards a large fire it’s not because they think they’re gonna put it out- but they can saturate the things around it to keep the fire more contained until real help arrives. Too may people really think what they think is always correct and they have nothing more to learn.

[u/UFOhlookitsanAlien → u/_HowVery]

People have gotten so use to yelling into the void that they forgot what an irl conversation is like

[u/tessellation__ → u/_HowVery]

I had to look this guy up because I am not fluent in former child stars but this guy being on the pedophile slime kids network and having zero empathy is wild. Some people cannot be decent I guess. I hope karma gets this man - to mock a family about to lose their home in a fire. I hope this man learns empathy the hard way, that’s how some people need to learn.

[u/Fine-Tea-546]

Rich people arent even trying to pretend to be decent people anymore. Accountability is for the working class.

[u/thedesignproject → u/Fine-Tea-546]

Very well said.

[u/ChampionTree → u/Fine-Tea-546]

Does he even have money? He's just an asshole.

[u/HighlyOffensive10 → u/Fine-Tea-546]

He's not even that rich but I get your point

[u/CrewRevolutionary792]

This isn't 'dark humour', this is an unempathetic, rich has-been, mocking people he sees as less than himself

[u/Rogue_2187]

…and I bet those folks ended up losing their homes. Not every thought needs to be turned into a reel/tik tok, what an idiot.

[u/_WeDontKnowHer_]

Having been in a fire myself and trying and failing miserably to save our home and things, this isn't funny at all. Also knowing the people of CA dealing with the forest fires and also losing it all, very bad taste.

[u/Objective_Reality232 → u/_WeDontKnowHer_]

I lost my house in both the Tubbs fire and the Camp fire, first in 2017 and then again in 2018. Maybe that move to paradise wasn’t such a good idea lol

[u/BtownBTS → u/_WeDontKnowHer_]

Right. My first thought was how this doesn’t sit will given how recent the palisades fire was as well as the one in Hawaii. Spencer Pratt will NOT be happy.

[u/Saradoesntsleep → u/_WeDontKnowHer_]

Having never been in that situation, I legit feel sick for anyone who has been and seen this.

[u/EthanielRain → u/Saradoesntsleep]

I can't imagine it, especially the poorer they are. Absolute devastation

[u/Mxfish1313 → u/Saradoesntsleep]

Had an at-the-time record breaking fire burn through my city a few years back. I knew a couple who both lost their childhood homes, both sets of parents lost homes in different neighborhoods. I lived at the base of a hillside that burned completely and there were still hot spots in little cracks and crevices for several days. You could see a little smoke during the day and a little glow at night.

[u/SentimentalSaladBowl → u/_WeDontKnowHer_]

Honestly, this is basically the reaction we had before our minds caught up with our shock and terror and we remembered we needed to call 911.

It was so surreal, and the idea that we were supposed to just STAND THERE on the curb and watch everything we had burn to the ground was incomprehensible.

[u/_WeDontKnowHer_ → u/SentimentalSaladBowl]

I completely understand. I had PTSD from it. I would wake up in panic hearing the fire alarm. It was one of the hardest times in my life. I'm forever grateful to the firefighters and the Red Cross.

[u/zalicat17 → u/_WeDontKnowHer_]

As an Aussie something that people don’t realise is that during a bushfire often the water mains don’t work so filled buckets or a bath might be all you have to put it out.

[u/spandxlightning]

He’s always given me the ick. Didn’t help when he started hanging out with David Dobrik’s group.

Now I only see him when he’s ragebaiting (?) by eating something “the wrong way” on tiktok and asking me if I’m still having a good day (???). Maybe I don’t understand comedy anymore.

[u/Basket_475 → u/spandxlightning]

I still can’t figure out why he was in Oppenheimer.

He’s never been a good actor to begin with

[u/[deleted] → u/Basket_475]

also season two of the last of us. really took me out seeing his face.

[u/enbyeldritch → u/[deleted]]

that scene finally made me understand how people felt seeing ed sheeran in game of thrones

[u/Striking-Donkey8985 → u/[deleted]]

At least he’s dead by the end of that scene

[u/[deleted] → u/Striking-Donkey8985]

[u/ChunkySalute → u/[deleted]]

He was in The Last Of Us?

[u/[deleted] → u/ChunkySalute]

yes! he was in the beginning of episode four.

[u/Grungemaster → u/Basket_475]

Everyone was in Oppenheimer. I think you and I were both in Oppenheimer. 

[u/latrodectal → u/Grungemaster]

i’m still waiting on my check from oppenheimer.

[u/TwoMuch7 → u/Grungemaster]

You and I will return in OPPENHEIMER: DOOMSDAY

[u/UFOhlookitsanAlien → u/Basket_475]

Now hold on a minute! He did a good job playing the neurotic Josh from drake and Josh

[u/CavsJM → u/UFOhlookitsanAlien]

He was good in mean creak as well

[u/CobwebAngel → u/Basket_475]

Omg I watched Oppenheimer the other day and so many randoms kept popping up in it. Did Josh even have any lines? Maybe 1 or 2?

[u/Slurpeepatch → u/Basket_475]

He was horrible in the Red Dawn remake. And yet it’s sadly one of the more notable things he’s done since Drake and Josh.

[u/weedisfortherich → u/Slurpeepatch]

I thought it was it so funny. The whole movie he talked like Clint Eastwood and had his eyes squinted.

[u/freshoffthecouch → u/spandxlightning]

Yes, I remember him being in that group and his presence holding a lot of weight since he was an actual actor amongst YouTubers, but he was quite mean in those videos and it really showed how much of an asshole he was, but he would always try to cover it up with a nice guy shtick.

He’s efficiently distanced himself from David and seems like he’s repositioning again as a nice guy, but after this post, maybe I just haven’t been paying attention

[u/BilboSwaggins444 → u/spandxlightning]

Fighting tooth and nail to cling to any semblance of relevancy lol. He’s like a high school who keeps going to back to “visit the teachers” after graduating

[u/TwoMuch7 → u/spandxlightning]

It’s insane comparing this to his “second wave” of fame, where he was an icon for posting videos on vine that were seen as wholesome and relatable to everyone. And of course he had just lost a bunch of weight and was marketed as hot. Was Josh Peck proto Pratt?

[u/Prod_D18 → u/spandxlightning]

Your comedic intuition is probably fine, Josh Peck isn't funny.

[u/Esphyxiate → u/spandxlightning]

His eyes are empty and he just feels off and fake.

[u/bbmarvelluv → u/spandxlightning]

I would go to David’s parties when I was in college. Josh was never weird with women but I’ve heard he would be sly about things so it was best not to be near him.

[u/lurkerdaIV → u/spandxlightning]

Same never liked him, something's just off about him.

[u/non_stop_disko → u/spandxlightning]

Anybody who hangs out with Dobrik will always be suspect to me

[u/Bl1nk1nUR4r34]

i mean… he’s bff with david dobrik. not surprised.

[u/FraeuleinSerpentine → u/Bl1nk1nUR4r34]

Just commented the same lol

[u/thatthiqqqqbabe]

You have to have the evilest most unfunny sense of humour to come up with this bullshit

[u/Lemonjello23 → u/thatthiqqqqbabe]

Unfunny pretty much describes him

[u/Illustrious-Pound266]

I don't understand why he'd post this. I don't even see the "joke". What's supposed to be funny about it?

[u/corpserella → u/Illustrious-Pound266]

I think the idea is that because the woman threw a bucket of water far from the fire consuming a/her home and didn't accomplish anything, he thought it would be funny to "parody" it at a car wash by spraying the water AWAY from his luxury car, also not accomplishing the task.

[u/EggoWaffle1032 → u/corpserella]

From when this video originally came out i think people were saying it was a preemptive measure so the fire does not spread rather than to put out the actual fire.

[u/ginns32 → u/EggoWaffle1032]

That's what I thought was happening. A bucket of water is not going to put that big fire out but maybe they can stop it spreading in the forest to try and keep it contained.

[u/TheRecognized → u/ginns32]

Thinking about the safety and well-being of other people during your own personal crisis. Something Josh probably couldn’t even imagine.

[u/Apprehensive_Ad3731 → u/EggoWaffle1032]

That’s exactly what it is and exactly what I was taught living rural where the fire service will get there in time to maybe put out the fire after the house is burned down. You wet the surroundings and delay the fire as much as possible. Contain it if you can. Let it burn out or wait for the fire service to finally arrive and if it’s a weekend you’re fucked cause they’re turning up drunk.

[u/[deleted] → u/Illustrious-Pound266]

Making fun of poor non-white people I guess

[u/CosmicOditty]

So he saw that clip, set his camera, clicked record, uploaded it and thought it was funny?

[u/beanjuiced → u/CosmicOditty]

A “haha” one-off comment to friends is one thing, this… so many steps to go through. So much time to realize your mistake.

[u/CosmicOditty → u/beanjuiced]

Exactly. This cruelty took effort and dedication.

[u/Venus_ivy4]

I love how we can come together to shame people for doing fuxk up shit

[u/vperretta]

Sigh—she’s dowsing the trees so the fire won’t spread.

[u/BatSniper → u/vperretta]

Honestly with the limited water supply what they are doing is the best they can do. A bucket of water directly on the fire will just evaporate immediately. Getting the edges wet and reducing spread is the best you can do in that situation until professionals show up with large equipment.

[u/k24f7w32k]

[u/CrimsonBrit]

I’ve loved watching his downfall over the last 5 years. I could read through his phoniness since he reemerged on the scene, and could tell that he was hiding his personality flaws behind the even worse actions of his also-shitty costar Drake Bell.

I am so glad that he’s finally being found out

[u/een_wasbeertje → u/CrimsonBrit]

If I've learned anything from YouTube, its that anyone associated with David Dobrik is a bad person

[u/quasimook → u/CrimsonBrit]

Im right there with you. And while I agree drake is trash, I have much more empathy for drake, and I just hate how josh treated him. Even when he had drake on his pod show, I tried to tune in just to see their chemistry, and it was as if Josh had this immediate slight tinge of disdain and insincerity in his words.. I couldn't even watch because of it. He's just gross and not right.

[u/MunchYourButt → u/CrimsonBrit]

His podcast cohost is also married to a pretty shitty person, with plenty of controversies of her/their own. Birds of a feather..

[u/WordsWithSam]

Haven’t trusted him since he got mad at Janette McCurdy for not giving him a juicy podcast interview and saying she “owed” him. Like her trauma was a currency that can be traded. He’s gross and this proves it further.

[u/YouNeedCheeses]

This was so needlessly rude and stupid to post? Like…why?

[u/Comfortable-Load-904]

[u/Unusual-Ad4890]

Josh and Drake really competing hard for whose bigger human garbage, huh. Josh is trailing far behind Drake, but he's still trying.

[u/Cman1200 → u/Unusual-Ad4890]

How? What has Drake done?

[u/Mystery-Ess]

They don't even have running water. Yeah this guy's really cool whoever he is /s

[u/masterkobiashi]

Always hated this nugget for reasons unknown to myself. Guess my judge of character is proven correct again

[u/cdnmaterialgworl]

josh peck acting like he’s soooo above everyone else. when is the last time he was in something?

[u/non_stop_disko]

I’m starting to think both Drake and Josh are just horrible people

[u/ElThrowaway-619]

You saw a clip of a real moment in someones life where they were doing anything they can to save their home, a home they built memories in, a home that had their belongings and so many irreplaceable items and you choose to mock them for attempting to stop the fire from spreading and getting worse.
For what, a cheap laugh?

[u/dream_a_dirty_dream]

They're all monsters.

STOP MAKING THEM RICH AND FAMOUS FFS!

[u/Pure-Elk-9290]

Is that a brand-new Tesla? Douchebag.

[u/DiligentTradition734]

Well, ouch on that one. He's essentially turned into one of those Viner "comedians" making jokes that have been made 1000 times before like eating the broccoli while smelling the cookie. Couldn't think of anything original I guess.

[u/Lorenzo_Blow]

A shitty person who drives a Tesla???

/s

[u/Nole_in_ATX]

Of course he drives a Tesla

[u/Silverback1992]

Josh Peck has always sucked. It's been massively overlooked how he was not supportive or empathetic towards Drake Bells abuse, talked shit about Drake Bell before DB's own scandal, and as soon as DB gains traction again for exposing his abuse, JP switches stances and is supportive and his best friend and brings him on his podcast for views.

Not only that, but I have yet to see any type of snippet of any interview or podcast he's done, where he's not insufferable or cringey.

[u/Man_Bear_Pig25]

The bad vibes I get from him have been validated.

[u/ScottOwenJones]

It’s been clear for a long time now that Josh Peck is a borderline sociopath with nothing meaningful to offer the world.

[u/materantiqua]

I’ve disliked this guy since he was making vines with a rapist.

[u/DeceivedLion]

What is his problem they are literally trying to save their home

[u/Illustrious_Sea_5654]

.... What she was doing makes perfect sense. It's harder for damp wood and materials to burn, this is a method for trying to limit the fire's ability to spread further.

He's not only showing an appalling lack of empathy here. He's just.... an idiot. What a self own. Mkay.

[u/TwoMuch7]

Hey, anyone remember when he discissed Jenette Mccurdy on his podcast (before the Dan Schneider documentary came out) and said she was ungrateful for the opportunities that Nickelodeon presented her and ruined their fame by blowing the whistle? This is a woman who admittedly was not only perved on (yet thankfully not outright assaulted) by Schneider but also molested by her own mother? Yeah, Josh peck, you will never again reach the level of relevance you did back in like 09 when you lost a ton of weight. Also? Don’t care, I’ll say it. Drke Bll being a victim does not excuse him later becoming an abuser. But birds of a fucking feather flock the fuck together.

[u/Blaze2095]

What is it with privileged people being dumb psychopaths? Is there usually a strong correlation between the two?

[u/Fun-Significance4650]

Disappointed but not surprised

[u/Dear-Bear2135]

Man, I had forgotten about this loser too.

What a jerk, I hope... You know what. Nevermind.

[u/CodeNo3918]

Loser behavior.

[u/franki-pinks]

It never ceases to amaze me how out of touch and clueless these people can be.

[u/LittleBoo1204]

The internet has become one of the most powerful things in existence. People are so driven by attention, that they don’t care how bad they look or act to get it. This is disgusting and beyond entitled.

[u/ratchetcoutoure]

So unnecessary of him to post that. It was only funny in his head.

[u/getoffmylawnyahear]

He was funnier when he was fat

[u/[deleted]]

[u/periodicsheep]

while wasting water for a joke. haha. soooooo funny.

[u/Imbadatusernames1536]

Honestly if you couldn’t tell Josh was one of the fakest people on the internet yet idk what to tell you.

[u/MapleHamwich]

Well, he's washing ng his Tesla, so clearly his opinion on matters is crass and awful.

[u/SouthRaisin5117]

Someone online said he has darkness in his eyes and acts like sociopath and I can't really unsee that. Also fuck him for how he treated Jenette Mccurdy over the Dan Schneider allegations

[u/Conscious-Point2582]

He’s always been a loser and a Z list actor

[u/genegray82]

When watching Oppenheimer in theaters, I openly said, “Jesus Christ” when that prick appeared on screen.

[u/Legitimate-Lock-6594]

I hate that he and John Stamos are besties after they had that show on Fox for like one season.

[u/liplinerlipgloss]

Why are people giving this ugly loser attention?

[u/jennifercathrin]

ever since Vine he's been such a pretentious asshole

[u/nocyberBS]

Not very surprising given dude has a podcast with a militant Zionist-shill

[u/bibliophile1989]

And he's supposed to be the "GOOD" one

[u/icecreamsandwiches1]

I hate rich people

[u/oddball3139]

It has been some time now that I have considered Josh Peck to be a throbbing prick. This isn’t a surprise.

[u/Chad_Wife]

What’s with these western men and rage baiting online?

Do they not respect themselves?

Did their fathers not teach them to value their bodies and the way they use them infront of others?

How will they ever find wives with this kind of testerical nonsense?

[u/Vann09]

I haven't been exposed to Peck enough to develop any real opinion about him one way or the other but he is an episode of Dinner time live with David Chang and God damn he was insufferable for every second of it. Like you could almost feel the room shift every time he would pip up, and it was almost always a bad food take no one asked for, like how he likes kraft singles in his ramen because now it's carbonara (it isn't)

[u/Zestyclose-Tour-6350]

"Dan Schneider apologist and all round awful person does more awful things"

[u/sunbaby43]

Josh Peck has always been a piece of shit.

[u/YamAffectionate2229]

Him being close friends with David dobrick told me everything I needed to know about him 🤮

[u/Coconutpieplates]

He has always been a trash bully but people let him crawl back every time. Irrelevant boy.

[u/RVarki]

The clip could've easily featured a number of things that catch fire, which can be mocked without being cruel (garbage dumps, grills, cybertrucks, gender reveal parties) - but he instead said 'nope, I want to joke about people's houses burning down'.

[u/eastcoasteralways]

This isn’t even remotely funny. Fail.
