About
Writer, internet comedian, and cartoonist of the web comic "One Giant Hand" who has been featured by The Guardian, AV Club, Salon, The New York Times, KnowYourMeme, and countless other news and media outlets. His pixelatedboat X account became host to more than 300,000 followers in response to his absurdist and parodic tweets which often introduced political and pop culture elements into their absurdity.
Before Fame
He joined Twitter on the date of January 28th, 2015. In June of the following year, he coined the term "Milkshake Duck," which would give rise to his eventual legendary status in the social media world. His full tweet read, "The whole internet loves Milkshake Duck, a lovely duck that drinks milkshakes! *5 seconds later* We regret to inform you the duck is racist." The term Milkshake Duck then came to refer to the fleeting adoration society will feel for a new public figure only to learn something unsavory about them shortly thereafter. The term went on to be officially recognized as one of the Australian dictionary's Words of the Year.
Trivia
In September of 2020, The Guardian tasked him with drafting a list of the 10 funniest things he had ever seen online. Some entries in the list included an unexplainable stock photo of a gun resting atop a plate of spaghetti, and a list of fake baseball player names made up by a Japanese video game development team that included names like Bobson Dugnutt and Shown Furcotte.
