Jason Stanley - "Hi"

[@michaelgould6342]

I kept expecting him to say, “I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me.”

[@DavidComdico]

He beams with the pride of someone who went out to their yard and counted every blade of grass.

[@paulleeson1218]

He does have a certain For Lawn look about him.

[@timtom5472]

This is a masterpiece of the century. Us mere mortals don't deserve such enlightening content. Thank you for this.

[@Antiph1]

LOL

[@Paul_Lucas]

Found this after his latest Twitter meltdown. Thanks for clearing up that he’s the Jacob Urowsky Professor of Philosophy at Yale University. Perhaps Jason himself comes here, from time to time, to remind himself of that fact.

[@simonvaughan6017]

He doesn't seem sure how to pronounce "Urowsky". The first four times, he says it one way; the fifth time, he says it another way.

[@Borntoberiled]

He's had another one this week. He is cringe personified

[@Paul_Lucas]

Welcome back to everyone here after the dessert plate episode. You’re all here because you searched this dude online because you can’t believe he’s a serious person.

[@Borntoberiled]

@@Paul_Lucas Yup!

[@lisaj5540]

@@Paul_Lucas Late to the party but yep!

[@oumod_]

Amazing thinker. I once thought success was counting blades of grass until Jacob Urowsky talked to me and totally changed my worldview. Thank you Jacob!

[@TheChris403]

I bet that dude aced his SATs.

[@TTFMjock]

He notoriously barely broke 1200. Can you break 1200? Well then, you too might someday be the Jacob Urowsky Professor of Philosophy at Yale University.

[@harmalauri3891]

This guy deserves all the clowning he gets lol. In fact there can never be enough

[@bellatrixblack1161]

"Is that suckSASS? It isn't suckSASS!" This is unintentionally hilarious

[@byzantinegold]

I love the music because he is literally congratulating himself.

[@diamondhyena5631]

why is this so funny

[@carneades4409]

is that success? it isn't success.

[@Caryn-Brooks]

But 5 books? Is that success? How many books is success? Is books success? How many books is grass?

[@ericspace8816]

That guy was a disappointment to me when he came to our conference an hour late wearing sunglasses and during our conference dinner constantly babbled and appeared to be on cocaine or whatever drugs he takes. Apparently he thought he's some kind of star.

I think about this video a lot - truly a masterclass in being a hater. We should all aspire to these heights.

YES. This was like a “ROCKY” movie on acid trapped in an elevator. High Art.

Well done sir

[@kayrb2475]

“Whad is saxsass?.. Saxsassfully counting blades of grass; is thad saxsass? Thad isn’t saxsass.” I’m sorry nobody will convince me this is not another hilarious Sacha Baron Cohen parody.

[@Ivan-pv5fj]

he turns every vowel in to "a", which is quite annoying. Did his friends ever tell him that this is not how we pronounce this vowel?

[@jamesriccardo2225]

If I'm not mistaken, "Hi, I'm Jason Stanley" is from Montreal. Some English-speaking Quebecers take the "a" sound to a whole different level. But not me. I don't think.

[@dianacollins391]

Jason Stanley Urowsky, professor of philharmonic at Yell University. It's important that you remember this, so that you can answer correctly when he says "Don't you know who I am?" (And yes, I was referred here after a Twitter episode.)

[@susanyates858]

My names xx and I'm finding it hard to speak thru the margarine lovely mash up

[@drahcirnevarc9152]

I had a run-in with him about 15 years ago as a Philo PhD student. I can't remember what it was about but I remember thinking he was an arsehole, and impression solidified by his subsequent participation in the witch hunt against Kathleen Stock.
