He really thinks he’s the smartest person in the room because he made a once popular tv show and several funny movies, doesn’t he.
I believe he should go back to grunting and tools, at least he made sense then
I remember feeling weird about Home Improvement as a kid/teen during its original run. It had its funny moments, but then it also had stupid shit, like a debate about whether men or women were better, with Tim’s argument winning because women didn’t invent/discover as many things as men did. I remember yelling at the screen, “Of course women didn’t do those things, because men have been holding women back for thousands of years!”
Young-me was just pissed because Tim made a stupid argument that could be used by idiot boys next time they wanted to dismiss me or other girls. I thought it was a mistake. Adult-me is pissed because now I can see that he was a bigot all along. The omission of women’s plight wasn’t a mere overlook of history, but a point that Tim would’ve never addressed on his show in the first place. Suppression of inconvenient facts is probably baked into his brain by now.

Men also took credit for women’s discoveries and inventions too.
Marie Curie has entered the chat Grace Hopper has entered the chat Hedy Lamar, Ada Lovelace, Mary Shelley… You get the idea.
Baked brain is fairly observant lol! Wondering exactly what he ever invented…
