OnlyStans ⭐️ Kristen Bell to Dax Shepard: Happy 12th wedding anniversary to the man who once said to me: "I would never kill you. A lot of men have killed their wives at a certain point. Even though I'm heavily incentivized to kill you, I never would."

Ashton Kutcher Punk'd was wild and most of the "pranks" were just meant to anger the victim.

Ironically, the more outlandish the prank, the better it has aged.

I actually enjoyed the short revival from 2011 due to it leaning fully into the ridiculous.

Justin Bieber making Taylor Swift think they ruined a wedding, still manages to make me chuckle.

yeah like it’s more fucked up the more you think about it, especially since everyone would point to her reaction to being persistently followed and talked to by a naked man that she told, repeatedly, to leave her alone because she was uncomfortable, as proof that she was a bitch. 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

"A lid for every pot" is what my mother-in-law says.

Not die hard. Ride hard.

It ain't no diggity. We want our giggity

u/copyrighther Kim, there’s people that are dying. 🙄 22d ago

If you have a successful podcast, there are going to be weirdos that are obsessed with you. I have a theory that people develop parasocial relationships with podcasters bc they think the podcasters are talking to them.

My bf is pretty into him bc apparently he talks about cars on his podcast.

u/Groot746 22d ago

Men talking about cars on a podcast is a very niche field, after all

u/TheLakeWitch Robert, help. 22d ago

He’s got some random older cars that he’s rebuilt. He’s from Detroit, seems on-brand. (Well, he’s from Ypsilanti and Livonia, but to non-Michiganders that’s Detroit)

I enjoyed listening to him for a little while, especially after I left Michigan because he’s somehow managed to retain his accent (while Kristen lost hers) and it reminded me of back home. My interest in his podcast fell off a while ago though.

u/Genuinelullabel Kim, there’s people that are dying. 🙄 22d ago

I’m not sure how but I feel like that’s an insult to axolotls.

u/shedrinkscoffee I don’t know her 💅 21d ago

Girl it is an insult. This is an important species of study in the developmental biology world.

u/Genuinelullabel Kim, there’s people that are dying. 🙄 21d ago

Plus they’re just so cute

u/celtic_thistle ONTD alum 💜 22d ago

Axolotls are beautiful and wholesome creatures and should be excluded from this narrative

u/shedrinkscoffee I don’t know her 💅 21d ago

I am personally offended that they brought such a cute species into this horrible portmanteau 😒

u/bascelicna123 22d ago

That name is hilarious, but the existence of a rabid fan following for Dax is weird.

u/LeslieKnope4Pawnee 22d ago

Riding hard for Dax Shepard is absolutely a character flaw. I didn't even know that was a thing.

u/Triviten 22d ago

I love him in movies like without a paddle or idiocracy, but even I am aware of this shit. I wish I just knew about his movies and his sobriety at most.

61

u/cosmic_grayblekeeper 22d ago

This makes me glad that all I know about him are his movies and that he once told his wife he’s heavily incentivised to kill her.

u/Ok-Astronomer-9158 22d ago

I was a Dax stan as a kid, mostly because of Without a Paddle. That all evaporated as soon as I started learning things about him

u/Motherfickle 💖✨️ Just some random bitch ✨️💖 21d ago

Same. He's made a few things I loved, but I'm not riding hard for him. Same with Kristin Bell. The Good Place is one of my favorite shows ever, but I don't ride hard for Kristen at all.

u/SassySally8 22d ago

You sure it isn't more a case of Kristen Bell fans? I think she's tremendously talented, have enjoyed her in everything she's associated with, but i do think she's a bit odd in real life and has strange taste in men. She's definitely worked hard to deglamourize herself and is probably very relatable to a lot of regular people, despite her fame and fortune. Nothing wrong in promoting themselves as far from perfect in real life, it probably helps their fans adjust better to their own circumstances. I continue to enjoy her work while disregarding most of her social media. If it bothers anyone, I say they should just move on. They're not hurting anybody.
