I shouldn't be surprised that the Venn bubbles of Leon the lobster and Lemmy overlap. I'm here after all.

My wife absolutely hates that guy and I have to watch in secret.

Because he's a boring boomer guy who thinks he's hilarious. And he makes lame ass lowkey misogynist boomer comments.

I watch for the lobster and skip the walks in the woods and kitten rescue stuff.

Aww, that sucks ass :( I haven't caught up, I guess I haven't seen any of that part yet.

I enjoyed the little bit of him restoring a motorcycle I saw. Fuckin stupid sexists.

It's definitely nothing scandalous. Just normal shit from a Florida man boomer guy. Very "Leave It To Beaver" level misogyny. "Leon tidies his house so much, maybe he's a woman yuk-yuk. I should get him an apron har-har" I think she mostly can't stand him because her mother's boyfriend is a similar type.

Ah, yeah I can definitely see that being grating and just kinda generally unpleasant. Thanks for filling me in on the context

It hits different when you're listening from the other side of the room and have his folksy yuk-yuks intrude into your personal space.
