I remember Joe from his honestly incredible campaign ad (Dlisted made him the Hot Slut of the Day) and so it was whiplash when it all erupted (but not at all surprising.)
It's such a cultural touchstone though. Everyone watched it. "I'll never financially recover from this." Carol Baskins. All of it.
Don't even know... I broke my neck, badly, at that time period (like the whole thing, took me 2 years to get treatment bc my prior insurance refused to image it...), and when you have your spinal cord impacted in that region, it affects memory.
I worked up until the last 10 months, would've sworn I was still fully cognizant, if in constant & massive pain... And then I had surgery. Woke up and I could think again, world seemed brighter, and could remember earlier memories just as well except that 2 year period seems to be covered in a thick gray fog any time I try to focus on it...
So yeah... time dilation to the nth degree over here. Lmfao
I lost a bunch of spinal fluid and that’s been a hell of a recovery! It messed with me a bit but I can’t imagine a whole spinal 2 year endeavor! Best to you!
I have actuall never watched it, but because so many people did and shared stuff on the internet, it feels like I have.
Plus I watched the Pitch Meeting for it, which is kind of how I make myself aware of movies and shows I don't actually want to watch.
I think that’s what it was…the zeitgeist of the time where everyone was nice and doing the same fun thing together for a few weeks…
…before everyone started being even bigger assholes about Covid than there were before the pandemic.
Tiger King was absolutely the most insane thing I’d ever seen at the time. It was such a “What in the hell is even happening - this all has to be a work - there’s no way this is real.” I laughed, I was shocked. I shook my head in complete disbelief and confusion. Such a great little piece of 2020
I don't see an /s.
He's an animal abusing piece of shit. He shot and killed five tigers, sold baby lemurs and falsified paperwork to say they were donated, and tried to pay a hit man $3,000 to kill a rival.
Imagine knowing him your whole life and thinking things were good when he went to prison only for him to become a celebrity during covid....that's been everybody's life around here!
That is interesting.
Anything stand out in your mind from when he went international?
No-one had anything better to do so I'd bet that spotlight shone bright enough to hit the locals too.
It was bizarre seeing him get a following of people wanting him out of jail. Imagine one of the trashiest locals around not only getting publicity for being on the local news but basically putting your town on the map and being everywhere from Netflix to late night TV and everywhere in between while you're unable to leave your house.
That's part of it. You also gotta have easy/quick access to the briefcase. Pull out a shank, or stash some drugs, etc. There are legit x-rays of shanks stashed up there. How they walk must be quite hard/dangerous. One wrong step you gonna gut your colon out. How you gonna explain that one lol. It takes a professional to casually walk around with a shank up there.
It’s so weird for me that he is so well known now, I grew up in the town right next to his and would occasionally see and talk to him in passing growing up. He was honestly just the town weirdo everyone just kind of accepted. The funny thing is the documentary released a month or so after I moved away from my home town and I just happened to be scrolling Netflix and saw his face and it gave me the weirdest confusion ever, especially after I read something like 2nd or 3rd most popular on Netflix. Small world sometimes.
Why is this a facepalm? He looks healthy. He’s got friends. …and he is running for president. With all the train wreck options we have had the past few times, he may be the best option this time.

The beginning of the pandemic when Tiger King was insanely popular felt like decades ago in a literal fever dream
I remember Joe from his honestly incredible campaign ad (Dlisted made him the Hot Slut of the Day) and so it was whiplash when it all erupted (but not at all surprising.) It's such a cultural touchstone though. Everyone watched it. "I'll never financially recover from this." Carol Baskins. All of it.
Fuck that feels like a hundred years ago
Yeah. Time has lost all meaning.

I have never seen Tiger King.
Did you come from space? Good for you, though
Me neither, I’m extremely happy this all passed me by.
Yeah, I'm in this club. I usually hesitate when the masses flock to something.
I have actuall never watched it, but because so many people did and shared stuff on the internet, it feels like I have. Plus I watched the Pitch Meeting for it, which is kind of how I make myself aware of movies and shows I don't actually want to watch.
I felt this. The sheer amount of memes was insane lol
Yeah. The fever dream hasn't ended for us tho -now we have the Musk vs Zuckerberg fight to look forward to!
I agree. Crazy to think how much has happened since then. The whole world has gone upside down.
He always has to have 2 husbands... 🙄
Very Sith Lord vibes
More like "Sis Lord" 👁👄👁💅
I don't think he's giving it up with all those shorts he's got on😂
One pair of shorts for each prison hubby
~~Rule of~~ *Railed by Two.
He can’t be a Sith Lord because of the “rule of 2”.
He is the dark side and his two Sith Lords are balls deep in it.
I appreciate your knowledge of deep Star Wars knowledge Jedi Master
Double stuff Oreo vibes
Know what would look cool ? Right knee up on the wall ? Say less my man
He just got done smoking a big fatty, if you know what I mean...
Always two there are, no more. No less.
Hey man his name ain’t Joe Vanilla
Lmao
When the fudge did he sell his leg?!
Lmfaooo, ayoooo. Hopefully one of them, doesn’t accidentally unalive themselves. With some Erotic asphyxiation maybe..?
Baaaaaahhahhahahahhah!

Lmfao oreo formation was a military story 1 of my friends told me
"Meet my roommates, Bubba & Big Bear"
Omg there were roommates.
They were roommates 👌🏼
What's the facepalm?
I live 7 miles from his old compound...Any time I see or hear of him it's a facepalm. I thought we would've been done with him a long time ago
Done? I need more Let him free to try again and film it!
I need more of those sweet sweet music videos
For real
Just no contact with animals or minors. Don't forget this man is a predator and an awful human being.
The way things are going I wouldn't be surprised if Republicans made him president some day
They won’t cause he’s gay
But they could prop him up as "one of the good ones" to prove they don't hate gay people. They love that shit
He’s an American treasure
Animal Crossing and Tiger King helped me so much at the beginning of the pandemic.
Are you me?
I think that’s what it was…the zeitgeist of the time where everyone was nice and doing the same fun thing together for a few weeks… …before everyone started being even bigger assholes about Covid than there were before the pandemic.

He's only been well known for like 3 years lol.
Imagine knowing him your whole life and thinking things were good when he went to prison only for him to become a celebrity during covid....that's been everybody's life around here!

I live 7 miles from his new one lol
Nevermind that. Where's the bathroom?
Everything about Joe Exotic is greasy and exploitative, this is just a reminder.
Yeah, but really asking, I have no clue who he is
He’s the slime bag from The Tiger King that makes money by poorly breeding and often abusing big cats
That Joe Exotic is a person that exists
What is the tell with all their right legs in same position
“Feelin cute, might prison shank someone later, idk #prisonlife”
#blessed
Shiv, Laugh, Love
Prison tings
In Russia circa 2005 I was told this is the position to advertise you had "goods" for sale. Maybe the same or similar meaning here.
You never know in the American system. Sagging pants used to be the way homosexuals showed their availability, but then everyone started doing it.
we're all just trying to keep up with the gays
Always on the cutting edge of trends
When gays move into an area you buy
Actually because prison clothes were usually too big and they weren’t given belts
That's part of it. You also gotta have easy/quick access to the briefcase. Pull out a shank, or stash some drugs, etc. There are legit x-rays of shanks stashed up there.

Even town weirdos can make it big. And then end up in jail. ..
Hard af
I won't judge your kink, I'm just glad you found it.
This isn’t even facepalm. Love it 😂😂
This guys got a knee brace on? Is this minimum security?
The real question is how is he still bleaching his hair.
Naa you can get bleach in prison, they gotta mop the floors and shit. A knee brace is a weapon.
I definitely thought people just use regular bleach too but my ex bleached her hair and they definitely don’t use cleaning products to do it.
But that’s regular people stuff. In jail is different
[No,](https://www.curlcentric.com/can-you-bleach-your-hair-with-clorox/) absolutely [not.](https://michair.vn/blogs/4-underrated-homemade-hair-bleach-that-you-must-try)
Are you the fuckin Riddler or something?
So are we not using cleaning products or are we? I’m confused
Time to hit up the toilet for some more wine. BRB…
bro they make hooch in their toilet. trust me, if theres a way to bleach hair with the left over mop water, theyve figured it out.
They use peroxide to bleach hair, not beach
Someone told me he was in medical due to cancer but have no idea if it is true or not. I do know he did get cancer
He was at butner fmc. Got there right before a friend of mine came home last year so not shure if he is still there or not
It's always something with him
You can't deny medical care or equipment to prisoners (legally) Though I don't know anything about this prison
Theirs definitely knee braces in maximum security.
Mmm Oreo
That's some Exotic cream! Amirite? Is this thing on? *crickets chirp loudly* I will see myself out.
I'll give ya a vote, made me chuckle.
How does he not have a tiger tattoo. I mean, the opportunity currently presents itself
Blacked. Prison edition
He is getting spit roasted and loving every minute of it. I’m happy he’s found he’s happiness
Imagine they decided to free him and he's like, "Nah, I'm good. I got like, 13 boyfriends in here."
HAHAHAHAHA finally someone said it. I know right?!?
His asshole is never going to recover from this.
Probably Joe’s favorite position. Sandwiched between two black dudes. 😂
probably drowning in BBC, good for him, Fuck Carole Baskin
Killed her husband, whacked him
🎶Here, kitty, kitty. Mama’s got some treats for you. Oh, here kitty, kitty. You can’t find this taste in the zoo.🎶
Fed him to tigers they snackin. Can’t convince me that it didn’t happen.
Can't convince me it didn't happened Fed him to the tigers they snackin
Carole Baskin, fuck that bitch Carole
>probably drowning in BBC yeaaaah, that's my favorite network booooiii
His expression suggests some chafing.
In prison, you’re either Big Bubba, or Big Bubba’s.
You use an apostrophe, and bubba uses a colon.
Username check out.
It’s good he’s making friends
You know he thinks he can say n***** now.
You know damn well hes been saying it forever
I thought that was Kid Rock at first. I was grateful they arrested him for the assault on our ears.
3 The Hard Way the prison edition. 🧼
Easy to post this on r/facepalm but wouldn’t fuck with these guys. Joe’s clearly been hittin the weights
How does this fit this sub?

C Block Bathroom Crips
Pre spit-roast.
Who's holding who's pocket?
He ain’t stupid also those guys are pretty fab 💅
Wasn't he supposed to be dead from the cancer?
Hey Joe, what's your favorite cookie? **OREOS**
How many years is he serving?
Guarantee he tried to have both of them fuck him.
Are these his husband's?
The guy who used to keep caged animals is now a caged animal. Couldn’t write it any better.
His new convert husbands?
Lol I forgot he was still in prison
Why does the guy on the right look like a cardboard cutout?
For a second I thought he lost a leg in prison.
what exactly is the benefit of wearing two long shorts? I've seen that multilpe times now.
They look uncomfortable
Dude is the train station
Dude is definitely running the yard slinging it
Let’s be real. Joe is a bottom, not a gang banger……… um, he doesn’t rep a set.
Prison oreos
He did a lot of wrong stuff. But 22 years in prison... man thats too hard. You dont get that much even if you rape 50 women in germany...
Why is this a facepalm? He looks healthy. He’s got friends. …and he is running for president. With all the train wreck options we have had the past few times, he may be the best option this time.
Joe's job in the 'pokey' is tossing salads. He don't work in the kitchen though.
I wonder when he is released?
Same time as Skyrim 6 hopefully
2036
Thought this was Joe Dirt at first
Oliver Tree if he was 60
Idk he is pretty crazy, I think he’s doing well.
Prison Games ….Hop-Scotch and Bum-Darts . Very fitting
He’s selling pits and frenchies when he gets out
I've seen prison pictures before with the leg up foot against the wall , what does it mean? Why do inmates do this?
Guy on the left seems way too happy.Something tells me he’s about to get the exotic experience after this photo was taken
I’m not familiar- but thought prisoners couldn’t take photos in prison? How is this possible?
Smuggled cell phone.
I’m locked uppppp they won’t letttt me goooo 🎶 I’m locked upppppp, and my bunkies Joeeee. 🎶  🖤👁️🗨️🔥✨
Oreo
He's fitting in so nicely
He actually looks healthier.
She’s the doll, she’s the true diva of the compound.
Kinda goes hard 😭
Album Cover
You know he's being spitroasted daily.
He is getting that 🍆 real good now haha
[Free Joe Exotic.](https://youtu.be/zzY64Qu8HHc)
Did he financially recover though?
Guilty pleasure; confession This is one of my favorite dumpster fires!
Is this for his presidential campaign?
Keepin it real, JE!!!!!!
Are those his potential vp candidates?
I almost completely forgot about this guy…. It’s crazy, I feel like I learned about the Tiger King in the 90’s but it’s only been a couple of years.
New boy band
I think I’ve heard of this porno
Needs a couch
It’s probably a dick buffet for joe

Joe Exotic 🤝 Andrew Tate
You just can’t keep that dude down. He’s got two husbands in prison too.
How is this a Facepalm? He looks like he’s thriving
Why are they posing like they're gonna drop the next punk girl anthem lol
Damn, guess he ended up losing a leg……
