What did he say about the comments?
After the clip re-appeared, Shane took to Twitter in a series of comments to point out that this story is not true and is part of his sketch. ‘I haven’t had sex with my cat.
I didn’t fuck my cat. I never put my penis close to the cat. “I’ve never done anything strange to a cat,” he told his followers.
‘Since last year’s happening, I made a promise not to post an apology video. So I’m trying to be as short and honest as possible.’
Shane went further, explaining that the story was part of a sketching idea he had years ago, saying, “This story is fake and is based on some stupid, horrible sketching idea I’ve never done before a few years ago (thank God)” explained. And when given the opportunity for a funny moment on the podcast, I spoke as if it was a really disgusting and very stupid story.
‘The purpose of the podcast and my video years ago was to tell a surprising story that would make people laugh and shout.” OMG NO U DIDN’T!! “And I think I’m “really crazy.” I hate this so much.”
He continued, “After the incident last year, I tried to keep it as short and honest as possible, as I promised myself that I would not film an apology video.” “I’ve apologized multiple times for all the nonsense. I’ve said in videos and podcasts over the years. I’ve learned my lessons over and over. Now I’m on my own and it’s not such a shocking laugh.”
