Make it stop.
  • A lot of my friends complain about about the "youth", how they dress and talk and stuff like that. I always found that odd, because i for example had either a bleached blonde mushroom haircut or bleach blonde spiked up hair. Paired with a way too big fubu shirt and weird baggy pants. They weren't jinkos, but very close.

    I have no ground to stand on when i make fun of young people and i know that. Why don't my friends remember how ridiculous we were at 14?

  • Coworker says smashing Japanese beetles will attract more?
  • Bees do that. I once helped a bee keeper by holding a ladder so he could get the runaway queen out of a tree. There were so many bees, but i kept calm so they leave me alone. One of them stung me in my baseball cap and suddenly i had to book it, because all the vees were suddenly after me. I got stung like 5 times or so. I only later found the stinger and some bee ass in my hat later.

    Also fun fact, getting stung in the eyelid is very uncool.

  • AI is ruining the internet | Drew Gooden
  • Forums were so good. They got murdered by facebook. I swear a lot of people don't really know what the internet is. I was dating a girl once who was mind blown that I don't have social media. Like every time it came up, he world was shook again. One day i was waiting for her to be ready and i was browsing the internet. She looked at me and wondered what i was doing. Like what could someone possibly look at if it's not social media?

  • What is a product that didn't live up to its advertised claims?
  • I think it got really bad the past few years. I think many people don't even know that, but tinder used to be free. You got 5 free super swipes or something, unlimited swiping and so on. Now you can swipe a few times for free, and it is never ever the people who already liked you. It has a feature where you can limit your range and disable people from around the world. But half the women i see are from china or thailand. Women get flooded with likes and matches while as (an average?) guy, it's like playing the lottery.

    The problem that i see with that is that men generally don't pick their "dream girl" they jest pick what they can get. Which is a weird dynamic for any sort of relationship. "Of all the likes, i picked you, because of your smile and we both like cycling." "You were my only match in 3 month."

  • What YouTubers did you used to watch back then but not anymore?
  • I stopped watching when i read that he's just the "actor" now. Now i watched two of his recent videos and they were way better than i expected. Not great, but it's not like it went full unwatchable garbage. I can see someone discovering his new video and go way back to see more. So i guess it's not that bad.

    It's kinda sad t h at they seem to never to be able to make an actual good movie.

  • What YouTubers did you used to watch back then but not anymore?
  • Around that time i was in a hospital and was bored to shit. I watched every one of spoony and Doug's videos. I loved it, it was the only thing that kept me entertained, because i was awake most nights. I knew it was flawed in many ways, and doug kinda refused to make the jump to youtube or something and i just stopped watching and kinda assumed his project died. Only last year i found out that he made several movies and a gameshow and all quit like 4 times. So i watched his movie, that looked really bad and thought: what does a movie look like from a guy who made it his career to nitpick about movies. It's really bad. It's so bad. It's not funny bad, i felt bad watching this movie. He hasn't evolved as a person, his film making qualities have not improved at all. All his stuff looks like he's still using the same camera. I had fever one day and watched his game show, this gave me the worst fever dream imaginable. The next day i was convinced that shit was not real. Then i read up about how hi kick started all this stuff and wondered where the money goes. This stuff is truly bizarre to me and i think that would actually make a good move that is not made by him.

  • What YouTubers did you used to watch back then but not anymore?
  • I don't know. I found him always the worst of this kind of makers. His work wasn't very professional, he was kinda... Well himself, the end result was pretty meh and he had his own name plastered everywhere. Don't get me wrong, i think he's a smart guy, he had a high production level and knew that shoving up his name down everyone's throat will yield him results. He even has a very shitty netflix show

  • What YouTubers did you used to watch back then but not anymore?
  • Oh god i watched that guy for quite a bit and he always made weird remarks about things he doesn't like in a weird way and conspiracy theories that were just "jokes". Then he went full right wing asshole.

  • What YouTubers did you used to watch back then but not anymore?
  • Do moat people who watch her these days do so because they also watched jimquisition? I always wondered that, because to me it's the other way around. I always saw his thumbnails but never the video. Now i listen to the podcast and it's a bit of a mixed bag. A lot of podcasters and youtuber said that they will get "hate" for something they put out, and by "hate" they mean some 12 year olds that disagree and beed attention. I kinda accidentally went to her homepage and saw the starfield review and people in the comments were absolutely nasty. While i don't agree with that at all, i can see gow she's pushing buttons. Like ahe absolutely hated palworld. She hated it before she even played it, and all i could hear is that she's such a pokemon fangirl that she couldn't comprehend that people like that more than ger beloved pokemon and said all that palworld did was made her want to play "insert the worst pokemon game". Same with helldivers. She wrote a review of the game in the time she was waiting in queue on launch day. She couldn't play, so there is no review. I think that's kinda fair in a way, but i'm pretty sure if it wasn't helldivers 2 but something that she really liked or really wanted to like she would still waiting right now. So i'm not sure if she's actually farming hate for engagement or what the deal is.
