Holy crap, what happened to Dan Schneider?

[–] [email protected] 65 points 3 months ago (3 children)

It's pretty much an "open secret" that he's a pedophile who abused a number of the female stars of Nickelodeon shows.

This is a vine from one of his former stars. I don't see any way to interpret that except as a cry for help with the thinnest fucking veneer of hiding behind comedy.

Beyond that, of what I understand to be the openly verifiable stuff, he's openly a sex pest with a foot fetish as he has had a number of incredibly out of place scenes involving shots of underage female stars feet in the shows he has overseen, and he also tried to start a trend of getting (mostly underage) fans of his shows to write messages on their feet and post the pictures to twitter. I think it was "supposed" to be some sort of campaign to bring a show back?

Man is at absolute best a disgusting fucking creep preying on the underage for his foot fetish. Tons of circumstantial evidence that he's much much worse than that.

Don't forget, he's had multiple pedophiles on his set. You don't just get a bunch of pedophiles in your orbit for no reason.

No, I know all that, I was referring to the picture. He's looking rough.

I mean he’s been fat most of his life and he’s pushing 60. But yeah his lips look weird with that beard

its possible to have a foot fetish without being a creep about it. let's not kink shame the pedophile rapist sex pest.

Although that's a perfectly innocent fetish under normal circumstances, it is not Innocent when he's getting sexual gratification from minors without their knowledge. That's creepy as fuck. Nobody would care if he was attracted to the feet of consenting adults.

no different than him creeping on any other part of their bodies.

“If there’s one thing I always wanted to teach the kids who watched ‘Blues Clues’ it’s that you have to be ready to do the right thing,” said Steve from behind the glass in the local jail. “That’s why after watching the ‘Quiet on Set’ documentary I knew I had to take action. I followed all of the clues before sitting down in my thinking chair and thinking about what to do. I soon realized that abused children, Dan Schneider, and my fists all added up to justified vigilante justice. My dog might be blue but I vowed my hands would be magenta after I was done with him.”

Howie is waiting for the day that hairpile finally kicks off and slides into hell.

Elvis is dead. Tupac is dead. Steve from Blue's Clues is dead. Let it go. I'm sick of his denials by now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

is that, anthony fantano, the notorious music review guy?

I don't remember steve looking like that.

[–] Anticorp 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Huh, I thought Steve died a few years ago.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

No, he just went to college. Although it is possible he was replaced with a liberal doppleganger while there.
