Goteph/FacemannMcHomme/HommeAuxVisages.
Tries (and fails) to randomly insert edgy [shock value] content (often in the forms of extreme [nihilism], feigned sociopathy, and all-around [pisspoor] attempts to look cool and [brooding] when he wants attention) into conversations either edgy content or he himself has no part in, or otherwise does so randomly because he feels the conversation is dead and he wants attention to be focused on him for a change.
Talks a big game and tries very hard to [one-up] anyone who (rightly) gives him grief for acting like an idiot, but seems to fail at it [every single time] because he lacks the spine and stomach to uphold or otherwise back up any of the crap he spews.
Probably does all of this in an ongoing and vain attempt to make others miserable with shock value, so as to bring them down to whatever level of misery he likely deals with. If he can successfully do this, then someones as equally miserable as he seems to be AND hell have the superiority at having brought them down there all on his own. Ergo, it all looks to be an attempt to feed into his ego so that he can feel a bit better about himself.
Would probably be a swell dude if he wasnt trying way too hard to be a [Nietzsche] wannabe, but he doesnt seem willing or able to examine whatever personal flaws he has in his system and overcome them despite having the exact problems explained to him on multiple occasions. Really a shame, all things considered. -
A person who affects a provocative or extreme persona, especially online (typically used of a man)
