A disproportionate number of them become NFL quarterbacks. Who then end up playing for the Cleveland Browns, which kills them.

The real name of Youtuber Alternate History hub is Cody, and he is probably in his Thirty's by now.

[–] Wolf@lemmy.today 2 points 5 hours ago

My uncle's name is Cody, he is 39. Unfortunately no one has strangled him yet. 🤞

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 8 points 10 hours ago

Cody's Showdy.

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 17 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

That's because when they grow up it is no longer acceptable to use that nickname and they go by Codward instead.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 6 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

That's an Irish name and it's pronounced "Doug".

[–] Fingolfinz@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Damn..the one Cody I knew committed suicide and it was before 34

[–] faintwhenfree@lemmus.org 1 points 5 hours ago

No way a bloke on my street named Cody died in car accident at the ripe age of 33. Conspiracy is real. /s

[–] douz0a0bouz@midwest.social 17 points 14 hours ago

I have a cousin named Cody... that I haven't seen since high school 🤔🤔🤔😯

[–] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 72 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

live news person / world's hairiest seventh grader reaction

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 12 points 17 hours ago

Turn out the only alive adult Cody is locked away in a room with only fox news and the communist Manifesto as info... For his safety of course

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 22 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Cody's Showdy gets no respect.

I think it's consistently good occasionally great, and they crank out a lot of content (like besides weekly videos they do podcasts multiple times a week)

e; Oh, the show is called Some More News and the podcast is Even More News btw

[–] Lifecoach5000@lemmy.world 8 points 18 hours ago

I was made aware of his stuff after one of his appearances on the Behind The Bastards podcast. Some More News is good stuff!

[–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

It's similar in terms of detail to Last Week Tonight but not as funny.

[–] Oni_eyes@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 hours ago

It does get a lot more information and nuance though. Last week tonight only runs once a week. I don't know that Last Week Tonight cites all of their sources for each episode like Some More News does.

The few codys I've met all wound up in logistics and/warehousing

[–] Goretantath@lemmy.world 14 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Isnt there a youtuber called codyslab? He looks pretty old.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

WhistlinDiesel is in his 20s too. Though portrays himself as having the intelligence of a 7th grader, so maybe that got him alived

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Uh, is that really a "portrayal"? Dude hangs out with Jake Paul.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 1 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Dude is a millionaire in his 20s and got there by destroying expensive cars he needs to buy first. He's got at least 2 businesses besides YouTube that he uses his videos to advertise for, because destroying increasingly expensive cars is not sustainable and he knows it.

I can't stand some of his recent videos either, but to call him stupid is definitely an overstatement. Not saying he's a genius, but he must have at least average intelligence to have gotten to where he is.

To the best of my knowledge, he didn't exactly grow up with money either. He was pretty poor when he started making videos

[–] NinePeedles@sh.itjust.works 37 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I had a friend named Cody who was a straight A student, changed schools in 7th grade, fell in with a bad group of kids, got into a car accident, fell into a coma, lost site in one eye, and now coaches snowboarding. Not dead, though

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 13 points 21 hours ago

Not dead, though

Yes dead inside doesn’t count

[–] chrisbtoo@lemmy.ca 19 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

That's because Cody is short for Come On Die Young.

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

Cum Once Die Young

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 29 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Wait what about Doctor Mister Cody?

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 12 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Warmbo is actually his bodyguard, and the corn cream is actually antidote.

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 6 points 22 hours ago

Now we know why. It all makes sense. It's all a ploy to get his bodyguard paid in plain sight.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 8 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Thought you were talking to me for a second

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

No no you are Mister doctor Cody

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 8 points 21 hours ago

omg I’m so embarrassed you’re right

[–] TheImpressiveX@lemm.ee 4 points 20 hours ago (2 children)
[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

Oh we're using our superhero names? I'm Spider-Man.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

Maybe. Who am I to judge?

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 3 points 14 hours ago

I knew a Cody grade but I don't have any memories of him after that. Theory checks out..m

[–] Carvex@lemmy.world 22 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

I managed a Cody whom I called Codeine because he was a such a dope. 30ish, sold himself as a technician. In a car shop, pulled a ceiling mounted air hose over the left front fender to fill the rear tire, scratched the paint badly from the gritty hose. Left the bosses rolling stool under the alignment lift and heard plywood cracking as he lowered it, didn’t bother stopping until it was flat. Found out a week later he left the tierod nuts loose after adjustment. Left a flathead screwdriver in his back pocket and popped a hole in the customer seat. Worked one full day, sent home at lunch the next day with a full days pay, worth the price to get rid of him.

[–] DeceasedPassenger@lemmy.world 24 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I was thinking that was dude's first month from the way you were describing it. One day?! He's like a walking condom advertisement!

[–] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 13 points 21 hours ago

Got a nickname like that in a day and a half.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 20 hours ago

Or switches to their middle name to avoid the shame of being "Cody."

[–] Blackout@fedia.io 10 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

They usually change it back to Cod Liver Oil when they become adults

[–] Genius@lemmy.zip 1 points 13 hours ago

What about the tuna booze oil?

[–] potentiallynotfelix@lemmy.fish 1 points 14 hours ago

Cody Ko... but he probably likes seventh graders

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 6 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Nah, Cody teaches jujitsu at my kids’ afterschool program and looks to be in his early 30’s.

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

So you're going to need a replacement soon?
