For some reason I don't think 2024 be the year he makes the jump up from cameo to full video, I just have a cofeve feeling about that.
2016 - 2023 were the dark years, when he was shocked by and the aftermath of his TDR, but now the wounds are healed, he's better than ever and already rendering reviews RIGHT NOW.

What a fricking moron. He's decent lookig. All he has to do is lose a few pounds and get a haircut, but he'd rather whine on twitter all day.
After a certain point it stopped being funny to shit on Spoony and started being fun to cheer him on. If you're still mad he "stole" money fans donated to him then you're a massive homosexual.
Not really.
It's funny to laugh at losers who are still obsessed with Spoony, DSP or whoever, but I simply dont give a single frick if they recover or fail.
>all those tweets
JESUS FRICKING CHRIST! I have never seen a person so ass-shattered by Trump existing since Keith Olberman was literally foaming at the mouth.
Okay…
I’m sorry…
I’m sure what you said was very important…
But will someone…
ANYONE…
Just answer me this one question:
literally…
fricking….
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!!??!!??
He completed his Hero's Story and now has become the mentor... Spoony the Wise...
It's funny because people that know WHO Spoony is would definitely like for him to come back. Not to ridicule the guy, but to genuinely see him return to form.
I deal with alcoholics a lot and Spoony's been following basically the same terminal alcoholic path as everyone else who dies in their 50s-60s. I want him to get better and come back because it would mean a net positive to his lifestyle. But honestly man, he's been a hard-core alcoholic for 10+ years now and the damage to his brain likely can't be undone even if he successfully rehabs. The spoony everyone wants back is dead and gone. Those brain cells don't come back.
It's too little, too late for that. People that like him, like the type of humor from so long ago that it just won't click any more. People have grown up, moved on and dropped parasocial relationships. Most people that watched spoony are in their mid to late thirties by now, Spoony has no audience any more.
Spoony's videos from his heyday is the only Channel Awesome content that mostly holds up. His Phantasmagoria playthrough is still funny. So yeah if he'd do stuff like that again I'd actually watch it but we know he won't so the spiral downward is entertainment enough
Nah, I'm here just to reminisce about 2008-2010. It's been 15 years already, holy frick. I started watching him back when I was finishing high school (same with the TGWTG crew) and it's funny how I fell in love with the internet personas but the honeymoon phase passed over and I was left looking at these sad wretches just dancing on the internet for pennies. I guess Lindsay did ok, Doug is still trucking, 7 Pesos Pedro got fat and half of them trooned out. Never watched a single Brad episode though, funny that.
>it's funny how I fell in love with the internet personas but the honeymoon phase passed over and I was left looking at these sad wretches just dancing on the internet for pennies.
it was a flash pan moment because you had these guys trying to make content on the internet for kicks and they also had a budding, untapped audience of kids who grew up on games/tv/internet. you'll never see someone like spoony break into the consciousness of the internet ever again
In a sense they were ahead of the time before people actually started making money from this shit. For god's sake, they were actually relying on ad sense still and sponsorships were frowned upon. Wasn't there drama about CA not allowing Patreon or something?
I think they weren't allowed to promote their patreons on videos posted to Channel Awesome's site. Now that I think of it, does Channel Awesome even have a patreon? I know Cinemassacre doesn't even though it could make fricking bank off of it
>In a sense they were ahead of the time before people actually started making money from this shit.
yea they were SO ahead of the curve, it's fricking bananas that only a few of them truly capitalised from it. obviously you could say that there were no standards back then so any dweeb could end up with a following if they just filmed themselves in front of a blank wall, so of course they would get filtered into obscurity once every one else caught on and started making better shit. but still, it was an unbelievable stepping stone that simply doesn't exist anymore so it sorta boggles the mind that so many of the goons back then never took it beyond a few boom years
Yeah, it was also around this time when being a "nerd" or having nerdy hobbies went into the mainstream. They were trailblazing the trend so while you could never agree to having watched the Pokemon movies in high school you could tune in to some guy, like a cool older brother, talking in depth about them. Again, this was 2007, I can remember not being online 24/7 back then. It's impossible to get a grassroots internet persona ever again, not in 2023. I guess it's time to start posting ads for D&D groups again.
>you could never agree to having watched the Pokemon movies in high school you could tune in to some guy, like a cool older brother, talking in depth about them
that's the thing really, it was an outlet for a lot of fricking dweeby people. me included as a kid, i still remember fondly watching spoony's ff8 stuff on the weekends like it was just my thing. my eccentric interest echoed by some guy cracking jokes. i can't think of the right words to describe but it was just perfect for me at that time in my life - what you said about the cooler brother sums it up quite nicely though
Amen brother. Somehow I gravitated towards these people because you felt that you were not alone in your hobbies.
Again, most anons forget that we are talking about 2007 here. BBT was not big yet, Iphones were not big yet. Frick, the Internet was still something fringe guys did. If you lived in a small-ish town...that was it. Until you discovered webcomics, nextgenwalkthroughs, bonerjones...frick I think I learned of NC through a gaming webcomic that linked and "old vs new" video comparing the Burton Batman Jover vs the Dark Knight Joker. I would never have found out this type of discussion in the real world, no friends or extended family. And that was what catapulted them.

I want the guy to keep doing his thing, it's like seeing a clogged pipe that could be easily fixed, it's annoying, just pull the hair and it's fixed, just fricking do it.
He had a mental breakdown when his big tiddy ginger girlfriend left him in like 2012 or so.
Yepp, 10 years of utter blackpill hopelessness since because of some fricking broad.
he's just a frickin loser. his decline can be traced back to the horse faced one breaking up with him and he still prolly hasn't got over it like some dying parasite without a host
anyone remember that weird pitch video he did to jimmy fallon about a board game segment or something? jeez
What happens to people like this when they become irrelevant and can't live off patreon paypigs? He just has a day job at a McDonald's somewhere and four roommates while being in his late 30s?
that's actually an interesting question. i'd presume that they just go live with their parents and do literally nothing
Spoony had a fricking Boeing job, one of the cushiest jobs you could have at least at the time all due to nepotism and quit after one day because he is a social aspy and is lazy. Absolutely no one should feel pity for him.
His dad got him a top tier job and he blew it.
Youtube gave him a top tier job and he blew it.
Hell Richard Fricking Garriott, the guy that made his favorite game series of all time, dude that went into space, has offered multiple times to help Spoony and he just ghosts him.
Stop pitying this loser even if it's ironic.
Bro, I don't pity him. I'm seething with fricking rage. I was job hunting straight out of college when this motherfricker got a silver plated job courtesy of his poppa. I remember begging, borrowing and lying through my teeth to get a foot on the door and then spending 3 years doing overtime and eating shit through a straw with a grin on my face.
I'm just saying that this entitled shit should eat a bullet one of these days and I despise the homosexuals who say, "oh I had a good time with him in X year, I wish him well". Frick him and frick his enablers.

The line is "he helped me through dark times". His current fanbase apparently is composed of nothing but people who have attempted suicide in their life.
I think both, it's undeniable he's seriously mentally ill, but whether or not that contributes or creates his laziness/apathy is really debatable.
He's one of the best examples of pure wasted potential. He would make a killing now with the new youtube trend being long and autistic video essays, that's basically his specialty.
What happens to people like this when they become irrelevant and can't live off patreon paypigs? He just has a day job at a McDonald's somewhere and four roommates while being in his late 30s?
You can make a interesting documentary following the lives of people like Linkara who are streamers but like minimum wage streamers where they make just enough to get by but nothing to save. Like when they are in their 50's+ and their fanbase is dead/moved on what do they do then? 20+ year employment gap and no relevant experience?
If these people were smart they saved money when the going was good. In reality they sadly probably don't even know what a 401k is let alone have any savings on the side. Imagine living paycheck to paycheck in extremely unstable entertainment job.
Makes me curious how Mega64 manages to support themselves. Merch whales can only finance so much and they all seem to live comfortably if not glamorously.
Linkara is a stupid worthless homosexual but even with his diminished fan base I bet he still makes above min wage. If you averaged it out he probably still comes out at least slightly above it. And he should have a sizable nest egg, advertisers paid better back in the day actually and his heyday he probably pulled a good number of views. As far as I know he's always lived pretty cheaply too, he's been in shitty little apartments for as long as I've seen videos of him it seems.
I mean there's nothing stopping him from any of the "I was a fricking loser" careers people undertake like being a truck driver. Lots of duds wind up making decent money doing shit like that once they hit their 30s. I can see him doing something like that.
I can feel it bros >at least three new reviews >spoony movie trailer next month and released by the end of the year >finds a loving gf >quits twitter forever
2024 is gonna be his year
When you were at E3 that one year, and you decided to go up and down the hallways screaming about XCOM's betrayal, and Joe decided to ask people, "Can I choke you on camera?"
Guess what happened, Spoony? Guess what fricking happened? The whole gaming industry turned its back on me. Not you. Not Joe. Not Blistered Thumbs. Me.
I went to GDC the following year, Spoony. I went to GDC the following year, and I had a chance to interview Notch, Mojang Specifications, Minecraft. Had a chance. A fricking chance. He was hot then. That was gonna be huge for this week in games. That was gonna be huge for the stream. It was gonna be amazing.
And you know what happened? The representative at Mojang caught wind that we were gonna interview Notch. And he stepped in, and he said, "Oh, I've heard of you. You're with That Guy With The Glasses. You're with Blistered Thumbs." I tried to tell him, "No I'm not." But he said my name was associated with them, and he heard what you did, making a fricking jackass of yourself at E3. You fricking moron. So they shot it down, and then word spread to GDC. "Oh, I've heard about you, you were the guy at E3." They thought I was the guy at E3 making a jackass of everyone. I was there trying to be a legitimate member of the business of the gaming industry, and I've worked my ass off to separate myself from you.
Every time, you just don't get it. Every single fricking time, you act like a complete fricking jackass! It has repercussions for everyone you're associated with, and you don't give a shit!"
I'm afraid to go look and confirm it. I see still him called Jason Pullara online and referred to as a He so I think it must just be an odd pic or not even him.
No.... no.... How does this happen? What is going on? I mean, is it some conspiracy, do people get abducted and taken to some black site where they are sodomized and pumped full of estrogen?
Man I'm still bummed out about this. What happened? She absolutely destroyed herself. I'm still looking forward to her finishing her Trigun retrospective
Read that speech again and tell me you're surprised Lord Kat trooned out. He was always a seething envious moron who blamed others for his own issues. And him being right about Spoony doesn't change that. Trooning out was always going to be Lord Kat's final destination. Men like him ALWAYS troon out.
He had a mental breakdown when his big tiddy ginger girlfriend left him in like 2012 or so.
Yepp, 10 years of utter blackpill hopelessness since because of some fricking broad.
Younger generations actually want to be Youtubers, while Gen-Xers want to transition over to mainstream media. That cringe Tonight Show video was his last desperate attempt at mainstream recognition.
Anon, don't forget that he hasn't worked a tech related job in almost 20 years. Even the one he kept b***hing about he quit after a week and was even hired because his dad knew some people. He 100% hated putting any effort into any job he had.
I remember seeing that actor from Phantasmagoria 2 interview him and he looked defeated.
Actually kinda fricked up that the actor interviewed Spoony. It normally goes the other way around.
Not saved, but he is a great example of why one should not an hero (unless terminally ill, etc).
He is now married to a gorgeous woman, much better than his exwife harpy or the ones in between, has a kid and still makes his videos and travels to conventions.
>great example of why one should not an hero >this guy who had continuous success with women over the years finally married and has a kid >we'll all gonna make it!
kys
Brad has a kid? I fear for its future. Not easy having a junkie dad whose only claim to fame is "being a bit better than his peers on that one autistic video review site"
Absolutely nothing. He made an awkward tweet about chaining the black chick in his basement and loving her "his way", but it was obviously just a cringe joke. Compared to what Channel Awesome people doing? Spoony simply got caught in the early SJW craze.
Not the black chick. She wanted to bang him but he did not notice.
He made the joke about that skinny chick that wants to be a boy now and has thus grown 4 chin hairs.

They basically fired him when they found out without revealing why at the request of his victim.

It was an open secret at Channel Awesome. They kept it under wraps as long as they could because if it leaked the fan backlash could've killed the site. israelitewario assaulted multiple women and everyone knew about it. They only fired him when one of the victims threatened to go to the police with evidence, the other women didn't have proof or were too scared to testify. All the Channel Awesome bigwigs are scummy fricking people.
It's even more hilarious that Lindsay Ellis is now gifts as a hardcore left wing feminist when she knowingly worked with a pedo rapist and made that cringe rape rap video, she's such a fricking hack fraud.

Kinda weird to think that the only ones who really made it were NC, Angry Joe, Todd, and Lindsey (even though she got canceled later on).
Honestly, the Channel Awesome expose was the best thing that happened to Doug. Shedding all those tag-alongs was beneficial for him in the long run.

He didn't kill anyone or anything serious but he always was a narcissist. Like before his firs big ban, he would bait sympathy by constantly threatening suicide and would lash out at his fans who were worried and that was a common theme with the streams too. People would give kind words or simply give him advice and he would blow up. He also refuses to take any advice or learn like the way he fricking does streams is wrong. He barely would interact with fans mostly to berate them like I said. He would often play a game sitting in silence. When people super chatted shit he would just thank them and not read what they superchatted. Like you are doing this for money clearly so why not do it the proper way then? Narcissism. He's still this same manipulative shit head today only twitter pushed his shit in when he got banned for suicide baiting way too many times so now he's very careful what he says but the "woe is me" shit filters out. I still remember when KF autists went to his house one day during the winter and his home was the only one covered in snow and not plowed. He said no one will do it and then the autists called local snow plows and they said they could. Someone did a wellness check and the cops came and he ranted how he feared for his life because there were giant icicles in his porch and he was afraid they would fall and hurt the cops and they would shoot him. I am not bullshiting you. This happened. Stop supporting this insane loser.
Publicly sperging at April when she finally left him after giving Noah years of her life while all he did was tweet a lot. Now sure I was no fan of April in his content, but that was just disgusting and pathetic behavior.
I'm shocked that woman stuck with him for as long as she did. Not to mention stress eating clearly got to her. >hasn't been on Twitter since 2019
Good for her.
The thing that annoys me the most about him is literally all he has to do is get over whatever bullshit exaggerated anxiety he is dealing with at 40, film a review and he's back. His pateron will skyrocket gain. If he does streams and puts in minimal basic effort he will roll in serious money. But he won't. Because he's pathetic and a part of me really thinks he channels his negative energy on his fans and refuses to do content to spite them.
It's a shame no one archived LardFat's streams.
There was one where he jerked off while being live or the whole first part of his infamous Spoony stream where he screams at his fans that they're not allowed to like Spoony and Spoony should take Miles gun and kill himself with it.
He was never funny. He had like maybe 4 classic era reviews that were okay (Conan 1+2, Judge Dredd and The Room). Not counting the AVGN Turtles Tour crossover.
Reading this (comfy) thread makes me wish we had a board to talk about internet content like YouTube and such. Cinemaphile allows it occasionally, but most threads don't last more than a few minutes before getting deleted.
We will never have this because it will eventually become a doxxing factory
I guess you're right. I just wanted to talk about internet content (such as pointing out the fact that 2024 will be the year of the Spoony) but it would devolve into something else in a few weeks.
>In 2009, Discovery contacted Spoony to develop a concept for an internet campaign in conjunction with Mythbusters and work with them >This would have led to more work and potentially a show pitch about science education, as well as a lot of money >He pitched Dr. Insano and was surprised when they said no and never contacted him again >They went with the Ninja from "Ask a Ninja"
Honestly a toned down Dr Insano or a variation on that character wouldn't have been so bad for Mythbusters or a pop science show. I imagine he went too ott with the "SCIENCE I AM LE EVIL" schtick with the pitch

Yahtzee....last time I watched a video of his was 2012. I haven't seen a single video since that year and can say, objectivelly, that my life has been much better. Maybe it's just a coincidence.
His reviews are whatever but I really enjoyed his Let's Drown Out series, even if it went to shit towards the end and most of the time his insufferable leftist friend spouted his shit opinions all the time. It was comfy.
>AmbigiousAmphibian went from being a philosophical hipster to jumping on the video game "challenge" band wagon
This is a very specific deep cut to me. I was a huge fan of his old Project Zomboid series where he used it as a prompt/backdrop for the topic of self-cultivation and learning to develop advantages in spite of your flaws and his entire image was just some dart-smoking hippie, then suddenly he gave himself a dumb "brand friendly" Kermit avatar and went into challenge shit.
"May you prosper" was kino, now I can't even watch him.
Always found it weird how RazorFist looked and sounded and acted like Spoony and they were both from Arizona. The only differences were political opinions and tastes in music

AVGN's Christmas review of FF3 at least felt like he was genuinely talking about a game he played as a kid and his experiences with it. Everything else for the last couple of years has been really terrible and this one wasn't even that good. It just appeared to have some authenticity.
I will not accept his comeback if he doesnt apologize for apologizing because he said
"Fithos lusec wecos vinosec" meaning "Real gay real gay sissy gay, sissy gay, gay gay gay gay!"
In my video (linked earlier in the thread) I singled out that apology as an early "How am I not myself?" moment for him. His natural (and the correct) instinct would have been to ignore or laugh off any criticism from the perpetually offended over that, but instead he retreated and betrayed his earlier (true) self.
on one hand I feel sorry for him because I know what a vicious cycle depression that leads to procrastination can be, but on the other I feel fed up because Spoony is the kind of person that will refuse any kind of help and deflect criticism with his tried-and-true method of sarcasm and nihilism
She's still making videos and got married to Phelous. More importantly she had beef with a neighbour. The neighbour then complained about her on twitter and in her kiwifarms thread
I listened to an interview and Liz said he hates Liberals because they are radicalizing the right by constantly forcing troony shit into everything. Surprised a troony would have an educated take like that.
He's not coming back, bros...
He is, 2024 will absolutely be his year, it's written in the stars.
I can feel it... oh yes bros, 2024 is gonna be good.
2024 was always gonna be the year moron, 2014 was when he really fell off so it makes perfect sense to do it on the 10 year anniversary.
2024 for sure.
2023 was just the prelude, 2024 will be the year of the SPOONTANG
>end of 2022
>does a video interview
>talks about doing his first review in years
>end of 2023
>did a cameo in a snob episode for a couple seconds
>tweeting about playing multiplayer board games by himself
For some reason I don't think 2024 be the year he makes the jump up from cameo to full video, I just have a cofeve feeling about that.
>stopped doing weekly livestreams with Curtis 3 months ago
https://www.youtube.com/@ConversationsWithCurtis/streams
Good, those videos were terrible. They weren't even playing the game, just following a guide without understanding what was going on.
plus the Swedish guy interrupted too much and was just not funny
Agreed, based on what I saw of them. In an ideal world, they'll prove to have just been an intermediate stage on his way back to glory.
In an ideal world.
>did a cameo in a snob episode for a couple

YEAR OF THE SPOONY
thnx bro, hard to keep track of spoony content these days
HE IS SO BACK
i thought he would look like a zombie but he looks almost the same
>the interview was last year
Frick me
about playing multiplayer board games by himself
Research for a multipart retrospective on solitary board games.
I guess we gave up on these
2016 - 2023 were the dark years, when he was shocked by and the aftermath of his TDR, but now the wounds are healed, he's better than ever and already rendering reviews RIGHT NOW.
I think 2020 was added, but I didn't save it
What a fricking moron. He's decent lookig. All he has to do is lose a few pounds and get a haircut, but he'd rather whine on twitter all day.
After a certain point it stopped being funny to shit on Spoony and started being fun to cheer him on. If you're still mad he "stole" money fans donated to him then you're a massive homosexual.
Not really.
It's funny to laugh at losers who are still obsessed with Spoony, DSP or whoever, but I simply dont give a single frick if they recover or fail.
Nah it's fun to root for Spoony. Not caring is for gaylords.
>all those tweets
JESUS FRICKING CHRIST! I have never seen a person so ass-shattered by Trump existing since Keith Olberman was literally foaming at the mouth.
Okay…
I’m sorry…
I’m sure what you said was very important…
But will someone…
ANYONE…
Just answer me this one question:
literally…
fricking….
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!!??!!??
The man who single-handedly exposed P@treon as the financial crutch for fraudulent ecelebs that it is.
I thought that was Maddox?
SPOONTANG THE DESTROYER
and his wacky sidekick Burton the Robot xD
literally the coolest and most based guy on earth right now
What does he do for money?
He is a NEET living off his brother or parents. His patreon also provides him with some vidya money.
his reviews fricking suck
why did you latch onto this freak?
Because his reviews fricking rock.
>hero returns after a period of darkness as an old wise man
He completed his Hero's Story and now has become the mentor... Spoony the Wise...
It's funny because people that know WHO Spoony is would definitely like for him to come back. Not to ridicule the guy, but to genuinely see him return to form.
I deal with alcoholics a lot and Spoony's been following basically the same terminal alcoholic path as everyone else who dies in their 50s-60s. I want him to get better and come back because it would mean a net positive to his lifestyle. But honestly man, he's been a hard-core alcoholic for 10+ years now and the damage to his brain likely can't be undone even if he successfully rehabs. The spoony everyone wants back is dead and gone. Those brain cells don't come back.
It's too little, too late for that. People that like him, like the type of humor from so long ago that it just won't click any more. People have grown up, moved on and dropped parasocial relationships. Most people that watched spoony are in their mid to late thirties by now, Spoony has no audience any more.
>yarr, I have returned from years at sea with booty for ye!
YARR LOVE
WOT IF I TIED YE' TO THE MAST AND LOVED ME MY WAY? WOULD YOU LIKE SOMMO DAT?
Does anyone in these threads actually want to see more videos made by him or are we all just shitposting?
I'M FRICKING READY FOR THE SPOONY GOLDEN YEARS MAN
Spoony's videos from his heyday is the only Channel Awesome content that mostly holds up. His Phantasmagoria playthrough is still funny. So yeah if he'd do stuff like that again I'd actually watch it but we know he won't so the spiral downward is entertainment enough
Nah, I'm here just to reminisce about 2008-2010. It's been 15 years already, holy frick. I started watching him back when I was finishing high school (same with the TGWTG crew) and it's funny how I fell in love with the internet personas but the honeymoon phase passed over and I was left looking at these sad wretches just dancing on the internet for pennies. I guess Lindsay did ok, Doug is still trucking, 7 Pesos Pedro got fat and half of them trooned out. Never watched a single Brad episode though, funny that.
>it's funny how I fell in love with the internet personas but the honeymoon phase passed over and I was left looking at these sad wretches just dancing on the internet for pennies.
it was a flash pan moment because you had these guys trying to make content on the internet for kicks and they also had a budding, untapped audience of kids who grew up on games/tv/internet. you'll never see someone like spoony break into the consciousness of the internet ever again
In a sense they were ahead of the time before people actually started making money from this shit. For god's sake, they were actually relying on ad sense still and sponsorships were frowned upon. Wasn't there drama about CA not allowing Patreon or something?
I think they weren't allowed to promote their patreons on videos posted to Channel Awesome's site. Now that I think of it, does Channel Awesome even have a patreon? I know Cinemassacre doesn't even though it could make fricking bank off of it
>In a sense they were ahead of the time before people actually started making money from this shit.
yea they were SO ahead of the curve, it's fricking bananas that only a few of them truly capitalised from it. obviously you could say that there were no standards back then so any dweeb could end up with a following if they just filmed themselves in front of a blank wall, so of course they would get filtered into obscurity once every one else caught on and started making better shit. but still, it was an unbelievable stepping stone that simply doesn't exist anymore so it sorta boggles the mind that so many of the goons back then never took it beyond a few boom years
>you could never agree to having watched the Pokemon movies in high school you could tune in to some guy, like a cool older brother, talking in depth about them
that's the thing really, it was an outlet for a lot of fricking dweeby people. me included as a kid, i still remember fondly watching spoony's ff8 stuff on the weekends like it was just my thing. my eccentric interest echoed by some guy cracking jokes. i can't think of the right words to describe but it was just perfect for me at that time in my life - what you said about the cooler brother sums it up quite nicely though
Amen brother. Somehow I gravitated towards these people because you felt that you were not alone in your hobbies.
Again, most anons forget that we are talking about 2007 here. BBT was not big yet, Iphones were not big yet. Frick, the Internet was still something fringe guys did. If you lived in a small-ish town...that was it. Until you discovered webcomics, nextgenwalkthroughs, bonerjones...frick I think I learned of NC through a gaming webcomic that linked and "old vs new" video comparing the Burton Batman Jover vs the Dark Knight Joker. I would never have found out this type of discussion in the real world, no friends or extended family. And that was what catapulted them.
Yeah, it was also around this time when being a "nerd" or having nerdy hobbies went into the mainstream. They were trailblazing the trend so while you could never agree to having watched the Pokemon movies in high school you could tune in to some guy, like a cool older brother, talking in depth about them. Again, this was 2007, I can remember not being online 24/7 back then. It's impossible to get a grassroots internet persona ever again, not in 2023. I guess it's time to start posting ads for D&D groups again.
I want the guy to keep doing his thing, it's like seeing a clogged pipe that could be easily fixed, it's annoying, just pull the hair and it's fixed, just fricking do it.
Any Spoonheads recommend some deep cuts that don't show up on his TVDB?
https://thetvdb.com/series/the-spoony-experiment/allseasons/official
I've seen his crossover appearances, the trilogy and the Curtis interviews.
2024 is gonna be the year bros
I can feel it in my bones
When is he going to rope? Hopefully Trumps get reelected and he goes off the deep end
whats even his problem? is he depressed? just lazy? i have no idea
>is he depressed? just lazy?
yes
He had a mental breakdown when his big tiddy ginger girlfriend left him in like 2012 or so.
Yepp, 10 years of utter blackpill hopelessness since because of some fricking broad.
how big were they? was she at least hot?
he's just a frickin loser. his decline can be traced back to the horse faced one breaking up with him and he still prolly hasn't got over it like some dying parasite without a host
anyone remember that weird pitch video he did to jimmy fallon about a board game segment or something? jeez
that's actually an interesting question. i'd presume that they just go live with their parents and do literally nothing
Spoony had a fricking Boeing job, one of the cushiest jobs you could have at least at the time all due to nepotism and quit after one day because he is a social aspy and is lazy. Absolutely no one should feel pity for him.
Imagine the universe where Spoony sticks at Boeing and becomes CEO...
he had a database entry job
>he had a database entry job
at Boeing that's 6 figures, full benefits and a pension with constant upward mobility.
In 2008, right at the heart of the recession and straight out of college. I know people that would have murdered for that kind of job.
His dad got him a top tier job and he blew it.
Youtube gave him a top tier job and he blew it.
Hell Richard Fricking Garriott, the guy that made his favorite game series of all time, dude that went into space, has offered multiple times to help Spoony and he just ghosts him.
Stop pitying this loser even if it's ironic.
Bro, I don't pity him. I'm seething with fricking rage. I was job hunting straight out of college when this motherfricker got a silver plated job courtesy of his poppa. I remember begging, borrowing and lying through my teeth to get a foot on the door and then spending 3 years doing overtime and eating shit through a straw with a grin on my face.
I'm just saying that this entitled shit should eat a bullet one of these days and I despise the homosexuals who say, "oh I had a good time with him in X year, I wish him well". Frick him and frick his enablers.
It's not Spoony's fault you're such a loser.
>Spoony Stan
>Calling anyone a loser
That got a hearty chuckle out of me, anon.
I got a job right out of college.
Of course I studied something real instead of Homosexual Studies like you did.
Zoom zoom, you didn't live through the recession in a small town. I honestly want to pity you but, eh, AI and India will make us all obsolete so who cares. I'll see you in the bread line.
If AI can replace you, you must be really worthless, LadyKat.
Hmm, so you're irreplaceable in the workforce? Are you a troon, minority hire or a woman? Don't answer, it's funny eitherway.
I just have enough IQ to know the correct numbers of fingers on a human hand.
What do you do?
AI developer.
Prove it.
I like wiener.
That proves you are a homosexual but we knew that already.
Just like AI developers.
checkmate, atheists
AI developers are all rapist pajeets.
>I'm just saying that this entitled shit should eat a bullet one of these days and I despise the homosexuals who say, "oh I had a good time with him in X year, I wish him well". Frick him and frick his enablers.
The line is "he helped me through dark times". His current fanbase apparently is composed of nothing but people who have attempted suicide in their life.
borderline personality disorder. Worst of them all.
I think both, it's undeniable he's seriously mentally ill, but whether or not that contributes or creates his laziness/apathy is really debatable.
He's one of the best examples of pure wasted potential. He would make a killing now with the new youtube trend being long and autistic video essays, that's basically his specialty.
It's been ten years. Surely the Spoony movie is almost done by now.
Yes sir, the video is in the render queue.
What happens to people like this when they become irrelevant and can't live off patreon paypigs? He just has a day job at a McDonald's somewhere and four roommates while being in his late 30s?
spoony's problem was he pissed away easy patreon money through sheer procrastination. he he just had to keep up with monthly reviews.
He moved back in with his brother. I think he collects disability or finds some other passive income stream.
You can make a interesting documentary following the lives of people like Linkara who are streamers but like minimum wage streamers where they make just enough to get by but nothing to save. Like when they are in their 50's+ and their fanbase is dead/moved on what do they do then? 20+ year employment gap and no relevant experience?
If these people were smart they saved money when the going was good. In reality they sadly probably don't even know what a 401k is let alone have any savings on the side. Imagine living paycheck to paycheck in extremely unstable entertainment job.
Makes me curious how Mega64 manages to support themselves. Merch whales can only finance so much and they all seem to live comfortably if not glamorously.
Linkara is a stupid worthless homosexual but even with his diminished fan base I bet he still makes above min wage. If you averaged it out he probably still comes out at least slightly above it. And he should have a sizable nest egg, advertisers paid better back in the day actually and his heyday he probably pulled a good number of views. As far as I know he's always lived pretty cheaply too, he's been in shitty little apartments for as long as I've seen videos of him it seems.
They get on welfare and they get their own "Down the Rabbit Hole" episode.
I mean there's nothing stopping him from any of the "I was a fricking loser" careers people undertake like being a truck driver. Lots of duds wind up making decent money doing shit like that once they hit their 30s. I can see him doing something like that.
I can feel it bros
>at least three new reviews
>spoony movie trailer next month and released by the end of the year
>finds a loving gf
>quits twitter forever
2024 is gonna be his year
This is what happens when you are too stupid to understand Final Fantasy VIII.
Nobody finds FF8 too complicated, just too obtuse.
Completely, and unequivocally filtered. Gain IQ.
Man you contrarians have thin skin.
Nah thats you.
Irony much?
Imagine getting triggered about FF8 of all fricking things.
So no then.
Whos triggered? I get to live my life knowing im not Spoony. What a gift that I get to wake up to each and every day.
When you were at E3 that one year, and you decided to go up and down the hallways screaming about XCOM's betrayal, and Joe decided to ask people, "Can I choke you on camera?"
Guess what happened, Spoony? Guess what fricking happened? The whole gaming industry turned its back on me. Not you. Not Joe. Not Blistered Thumbs. Me.
I went to GDC the following year, Spoony. I went to GDC the following year, and I had a chance to interview Notch, Mojang Specifications, Minecraft. Had a chance. A fricking chance. He was hot then. That was gonna be huge for this week in games. That was gonna be huge for the stream. It was gonna be amazing.
And you know what happened? The representative at Mojang caught wind that we were gonna interview Notch. And he stepped in, and he said, "Oh, I've heard of you. You're with That Guy With The Glasses. You're with Blistered Thumbs." I tried to tell him, "No I'm not." But he said my name was associated with them, and he heard what you did, making a fricking jackass of yourself at E3. You fricking moron. So they shot it down, and then word spread to GDC. "Oh, I've heard about you, you were the guy at E3." They thought I was the guy at E3 making a jackass of everyone. I was there trying to be a legitimate member of the business of the gaming industry, and I've worked my ass off to separate myself from you.
Every time, you just don't get it. Every single fricking time, you act like a complete fricking jackass! It has repercussions for everyone you're associated with, and you don't give a shit!"
Please tell me Lord Kat did not troon out
He did. That one single event in his life broke him so much that he thinks he’s a woman now.
I'm afraid to go look and confirm it. I see still him called Jason Pullara online and referred to as a He so I think it must just be an odd pic or not even him.
That's only because he's so irrelevant that most people didn't notice.
https://twitter.com/TeeExTee/status/1718024002164187465
No.... no.... How does this happen? What is going on? I mean, is it some conspiracy, do people get abducted and taken to some black site where they are sodomized and pumped full of estrogen?
Got some really bad news for you anon, trust me I thought JO would have killed ANOTHER person before Lord Fat trooned out
Is that why he got that weight loss surgery?
LordKat(e) trooned out.
>JesuOtaku
trooned out
>LordKaat
trooned
>JewWario
killed himself
Who is next? My bet is on Benzai and Linkara trooning out and Spoony and Phealous killing themselves
Benzaie is alright, but he only does French content so he's effectively disappeared for the rest of us.
>you now remember the times it was okay to watch coomer games and give funny dubs to it
>it's me, master bate
>trooned
Good. Frick that guy.
Phelous is still making money and feeding that hag Lupa through. He had eaten his sisters shotgun years ago if he were ever gonna do it.
Don't forget Luke Trooned out
>trooned out
Man I'm still bummed out about this. What happened? She absolutely destroyed herself. I'm still looking forward to her finishing her Trigun retrospective
Spoony's joke traumatized her so much she trooned out.
He's internet's biggest monster.
>jesuotaku
>now lordfat
Who's Spoony's next victim?
Lindsay is ripe for the spooning.
to be fair, JesuOtaku looked MTF before going FTM...
UNTIL WE WIN
Read that speech again and tell me you're surprised Lord Kat trooned out. He was always a seething envious moron who blamed others for his own issues. And him being right about Spoony doesn't change that. Trooning out was always going to be Lord Kat's final destination. Men like him ALWAYS troon out.
I just... I know all Youtubers are narcissists, but he seemed like a normal guy otherwise.
He was completely insane.
Legitimately thought that Spoony screaming about X-COM killed his career.
Frank Grimes vibes
Pfahaha!
How does he survive on 168 dollars per month?
Already answered, RTFT.
Last I heard his brother (who shot a man, with a gun, in his face) is feeding him.
why did this happen to him? he actually has a bachelor's in compsci and could be making 6 figures like me easily
see
Younger generations actually want to be Youtubers, while Gen-Xers want to transition over to mainstream media. That cringe Tonight Show video was his last desperate attempt at mainstream recognition.
personal shit aside he hated his chosen profession. at the time it involved working in a cubicle.
Anon, don't forget that he hasn't worked a tech related job in almost 20 years. Even the one he kept b***hing about he quit after a week and was even hired because his dad knew some people. He 100% hated putting any effort into any job he had.
I remember seeing that actor from Phantasmagoria 2 interview him and he looked defeated.
Actually kinda fricked up that the actor interviewed Spoony. It normally goes the other way around.
YOU CAN WRITE ME OFF AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WISH BUT STILL I WILL RISE AGAIN, AS STRONG AS BEFORE
You cant rise again if you never risen up the first time.
Does anyone have Brads vlog about trying to self-destruct?
Not saved, but he is a great example of why one should not an hero (unless terminally ill, etc).
He is now married to a gorgeous woman, much better than his exwife harpy or the ones in between, has a kid and still makes his videos and travels to conventions.
>he is a great example of why one should not an hero
Too bad I'm more of a Spoony than a Brad Jones.
>great example of why one should not an hero
>this guy who had continuous success with women over the years finally married and has a kid
>we'll all gonna make it!
kys
Brad has a kid? I fear for its future. Not easy having a junkie dad whose only claim to fame is "being a bit better than his peers on that one autistic video review site"
Frick me that vid was rough. Very honest, not looking for self pity, just a step by step of what happens when they stop you from suicide.
>Cinema Snob
Easily two tiers above the rest of the bunch. Has a thing for big tittie women so yeah.
Why can't you find his ex wife's nude pics anywhere?
Just a few more hours so I can post the 2024 version.
C O N F I R M E D ! ! !
I thought we all agreed that 2024 will be the year of spoony
Actually, 2022 was the year of the Spoony. You missed it.
Actually 2021 was his year.
Picture of his ex gf?
Google "scarlett spoony experiment". She's kinda mid tho.
Spoony is a legit shit human being and a narcissist. You guys should stop deifying him.
>inb4 b4 calling me LordKat
lordkat more like transfat
What was, realistically, the worst thing spoony ever actually did?
Ending Rebruary without a satisfying conclusion.
Absolutely nothing. He made an awkward tweet about chaining the black chick in his basement and loving her "his way", but it was obviously just a cringe joke. Compared to what Channel Awesome people doing? Spoony simply got caught in the early SJW craze.
Not the black chick. She wanted to bang him but he did not notice.
He made the joke about that skinny chick that wants to be a boy now and has thus grown 4 chin hairs.
>Channel Awesome
was there anyone sane?
What a happy, well-adjusted looking group!
Fricking Marzgurl of all people sorted her life out.
>married some Chinese dude
>is now a housewife with sagging mega milkers
>still anime-obsessed
Wasn't she deeply involved in that whole KickVic mess?
Yes she made it her life's mission to get him fired even though he didn't sexually harass her which is odd given how she knew about israelitewario being a rapist and kept her mouth shut out of fear it would kill Channel Awesome and she'd lose her exposure (which it did anyway).
She didn't know about the israeliteWario thing.
The people who knew were Doug, his brother, and the HR woman, plus israeliteWario himself and his victim.
They basically fired him when they found out without revealing why at the request of his victim.
It was an open secret at Channel Awesome. They kept it under wraps as long as they could because if it leaked the fan backlash could've killed the site. israelitewario assaulted multiple women and everyone knew about it. They only fired him when one of the victims threatened to go to the police with evidence, the other women didn't have proof or were too scared to testify. All the Channel Awesome bigwigs are scummy fricking people.
It's even more hilarious that Lindsay Ellis is now gifts as a hardcore left wing feminist when she knowingly worked with a pedo rapist and made that cringe rape rap video, she's such a fricking hack fraud.
At least she was a slampig hack fraud.
She still is isn't she?
what a hoss
She was credited as "Subtitles" in the latest HBomberguy video.
Quite the fall.
More like Marzgorilla, those arms stretch out to the next week
She really is the only one who has a happy marriage, a job that she likes doing, and seems somewhat normal now.
She ran the whole Kick Vic shit to make money, and she still in the poor house.
>Fricking Marzgurl of all people sorted her life out.
homie what, she's a complete mess, her FLIP manlet husband can barley provide for her, her most watched video is her simping for a rapist and saying keeping her israeliteario movie up is the same as keeping Coal Black and De Sebben Dwarfs for I quote historical purposes. She's constantly doing go fund me events and begging for money. Here twitch streams get 20-30 people. She ran kick Vic to get that Ellis money, while Vic got fricked and anime con culture is pozzed as shit, she made very little from it. She isn't JO or Luke troony level fricked up, but she will always be a poor as dirt, fricks a manlet who can't take care of her, and will now be a nobody!
rent free
>and they say ricecels have it hard
whats your excuse at this point incels
Literally anyone could have saved her. If one single white dude just glanced at her for a second, she would have been all over him and never married her beta follower.
Kinda weird to think that the only ones who really made it were NC, Angry Joe, Todd, and Lindsey (even though she got canceled later on).
Honestly, the Channel Awesome expose was the best thing that happened to Doug. Shedding all those tag-alongs was beneficial for him in the long run.
>Todd
that cuck is probably the biggest surprise, but considering he reviews music and there's endless tracks coming out all the time he's basically set. todd in the shadows never tied his career to nostalgia or anything.
Brad is not on their level views wise, but he seems to do fine. And has his private live in order.
I find it fascinating that a lot of the old Channel Awesome people are still trucking along making internet videos. You'd think most/all of the less successful ones would be like "That was a fun thing I did in my 20s but time to do something else with my life"
Problem is... what else are they going to do? They have a useless degree at best and 10-15 years of no work experience except making their own videos.
So unless they are producing in some capacity for another creator, what else are they gonna start in their 30s?
Plus their egos, plus the eternal hope to maken ot in the end.
MarzGurl is now working at a call center.
She should work as a call girl and I would love her my way (Spoony, possibly).
That b***h legit has no talent. Shouldn't have ever even tried.
A shitload of people have no work experience and still manage to get slotted into the jobworl somehow. Either they luck out, have connections or start low. I think most employers have caught on to the fact that most people don't do anything productive in their 20s these days.
some of these people were decent. bennet the sage, phelan, etc.
>bennett the sage
He has some moronic takes from time to time, but that's anime for you.
how many of these people trooned out?
Only JesuOtaku
So far 3 troons and 2 asexuals (might as well be a troon)
Trooned out: Lord Kat, JO, and Luke
Won't put out: Elsa and Lupa
Is LordKat on the photo?
He's so fat he'd have a hard time hiding.
Lord Kat had a small camo in the 3rd movie, so he was on on the set
Didn't he leave CA before any of the movie?
*movies
Oh frick you are right I just rewatched the scene with the camo's and it was that irish fat troony that I thought was lord Kat Diamond Hangen or something like that
Being asexual doesn't mean you don't have sex, it's just not very often. Like a bad marriage after 20 years, but from day one.
Elisa has 2 kids and I guess Paw is still getting his onions rocks off on a regular basis.
Stop posting Paw, we know you get sex like 3 times a year and you had to raise your son gender natural
what about IronLiz, or did he not troon out because he still has his dick?
I don't really count Iron Liz as CA, He was as much as CA as the troon that plays Linkara's gun.
Didn't Linkara leave Liz because she got rid of her dick?
What happened to Iron Liz, anyway? Years old news was (s)he left on a trip for Curacao or something.
Posting the updated Eggkara(TM) approved version
Who's the girl on the right with the huge ass
Marzgirl aka israeliteario's former slampig
Would. Reminds me of that dumpy prole with the huge breasts in 1984
The one we are talking about the whole time. The one who used to look fine, but now has the arms and ass of a truck driver and works in a call center.
sad
Zero sexappeal.
maybe ashens if he even counts
He didn't kill anyone or anything serious but he always was a narcissist. Like before his firs big ban, he would bait sympathy by constantly threatening suicide and would lash out at his fans who were worried and that was a common theme with the streams too. People would give kind words or simply give him advice and he would blow up. He also refuses to take any advice or learn like the way he fricking does streams is wrong. He barely would interact with fans mostly to berate them like I said. He would often play a game sitting in silence. When people super chatted shit he would just thank them and not read what they superchatted. Like you are doing this for money clearly so why not do it the proper way then? Narcissism. He's still this same manipulative shit head today only twitter pushed his shit in when he got banned for suicide baiting way too many times so now he's very careful what he says but the "woe is me" shit filters out. I still remember when KF autists went to his house one day during the winter and his home was the only one covered in snow and not plowed. He said no one will do it and then the autists called local snow plows and they said they could. Someone did a wellness check and the cops came and he ranted how he feared for his life because there were giant icicles in his porch and he was afraid they would fall and hurt the cops and they would shoot him. I am not bullshiting you. This happened. Stop supporting this insane loser.
Publicly sperging at April when she finally left him after giving Noah years of her life while all he did was tweet a lot. Now sure I was no fan of April in his content, but that was just disgusting and pathetic behavior.
I'm shocked that woman stuck with him for as long as she did. Not to mention stress eating clearly got to her.
>hasn't been on Twitter since 2019
Good for her.
You can tell she was sex-starved based on her obsession with Iron Bull.
>Spoony was locked in chastity
>their first interview ever
>can't help staring at her breasts
I'd let her lock me in chastity if she let me suck her toes
He is a pathetic narcissist but his supposed crimes are very minor. He has punished himself mostly.
The thing that annoys me the most about him is literally all he has to do is get over whatever bullshit exaggerated anxiety he is dealing with at 40, film a review and he's back. His pateron will skyrocket gain. If he does streams and puts in minimal basic effort he will roll in serious money. But he won't. Because he's pathetic and a part of me really thinks he channels his negative energy on his fans and refuses to do content to spite them.
Even Spoony's low effort vlogs were better than what anyone else on channel awesome ever produced.
you forgot about Lordkat's Herculean efforts to give out business cards and give people firm handshakes, which surpasses all of Spoony's works
It's a shame no one archived LardFat's streams.
There was one where he jerked off while being live or the whole first part of his infamous Spoony stream where he screams at his fans that they're not allowed to like Spoony and Spoony should take Miles gun and kill himself with it.
NC board
He was never funny. He had like maybe 4 classic era reviews that were okay (Conan 1+2, Judge Dredd and The Room). Not counting the AVGN Turtles Tour crossover.
He was and he still is funny, you can't take that from him. His videos are entertaining, while his vlogs are autistic.
for old time's sake, can we laugh at linkara and latza for a bit
Kinda, yeah: https://youtu.be/Hgl9Lrd-bX0
how can anyone give a shit about this guy still? why?
Reading this (comfy) thread makes me wish we had a board to talk about internet content like YouTube and such. Cinemaphile allows it occasionally, but most threads don't last more than a few minutes before getting deleted.
if there was a board for ecelebs, it would quickly turn into kiwifarms
we have a board for virtual youtubers, which has even more drama than real ecelebs
And that's a bad thing?
I guess you're right. I just wanted to talk about internet content (such as pointing out the fact that 2024 will be the year of the Spoony) but it would devolve into something else in a few weeks.
We will never have this because it will eventually become a doxxing factory
chink moot has specifically said no to any celeb board because it could "lead to harassment". effectively there's no place to talk about this.
Oh shit, I get it.
>In 2009, Discovery contacted Spoony to develop a concept for an internet campaign in conjunction with Mythbusters and work with them
>This would have led to more work and potentially a show pitch about science education, as well as a lot of money
>He pitched Dr. Insano and was surprised when they said no and never contacted him again
>They went with the Ninja from "Ask a Ninja"
Well, it's not like the ninja guy got catapulted into stardom either.
Honestly a toned down Dr Insano or a variation on that character wouldn't have been so bad for Mythbusters or a pop science show. I imagine he went too ott with the "SCIENCE I AM LE EVIL" schtick with the pitch
Dr Insano could unironically work on tiktok
Can't do the "For SCIENCE!" bit these days without buttmad christcucks getting triggered and wanting him cancelled.
YEAR
OF THE
MOTHERFRICKING
SPOONTANG!!!!!!
OUR ENEMIE SHALL BE SLAIN AND HE'LL ASCEND TO THE THRONE IN 2024
Oh man, I can't wait for all the crazy content!
This is all fricking Jimmy Fallon's fault he has to pay for killing Spoony's soul for a decade and running.
WHY DID JIMMY BETRAY US SPOONYBROSSS
No but 2024 for sure will be
>AVGN hasn't been good in over a decade now, and James has turned into a middle aged cuck that betrayed his friends
>James & Mike Mondays no longer around
>Mike Matei's streams are him playing some shitty old NES shmup for 16 hours straight while he makes unfunny impressions of the Joker
>Yahtzee's poetic wit is lost on his insufferable contrarianism
>Game Grumps hasn't been relevant since Jon left
>JonTron uploads once in a year to react to some unfunny old commercials
>ProJared's editor makes his new videos unwatchable meme-spiced cringe
>MaximilianDood now just söys out over everything like a giga nu-male
>AmbigiousAmphibian went from being a philosophical hipster to jumping on the video game "challenge" band wagon
>AngryJoe - actually who the frick cares
>Jim Sterling trooned out
>RazorFist put his good stuff behind a paywall and only uploads chud rants about local Arizonan politicians on youtube
>Silvagunner only uploads shitty FOTM rap songs
>Vinny sounds like he's constantly suffering from burnout and nobody likes his stupid Grey Leno bit
>WhyFiles only caters to whitetrash boomers with aliens and "muh gubmint project"
>Dr. K stopped doing psychological deep dives and instead shills some Indian meditation called shrabwabamhawathdrupreshkhani
>TK Mantis stopped doing interesting New Vegas/FO3 secrets and just posts dumb twitter memes
>Chris Ray Gun has gone full leftie after the 2020 insurrection
>Sargon of Akkad focuses on his pathetic "us brits amirite" excuse for a news show
>John Strife Hayes only nostalgiawanks on PS1 games
>Asmongold hasn't been relevant in years and only shits out his absolute milquetoast plebby opinions on shit nobody asked
It's over.
Yahtzee....last time I watched a video of his was 2012. I haven't seen a single video since that year and can say, objectivelly, that my life has been much better. Maybe it's just a coincidence.
His reviews are whatever but I really enjoyed his Let's Drown Out series, even if it went to shit towards the end and most of the time his insufferable leftist friend spouted his shit opinions all the time. It was comfy.
>AmbigiousAmphibian went from being a philosophical hipster to jumping on the video game "challenge" band wagon
This is a very specific deep cut to me. I was a huge fan of his old Project Zomboid series where he used it as a prompt/backdrop for the topic of self-cultivation and learning to develop advantages in spite of your flaws and his entire image was just some dart-smoking hippie, then suddenly he gave himself a dumb "brand friendly" Kermit avatar and went into challenge shit.
"May you prosper" was kino, now I can't even watch him.
Always found it weird how RazorFist looked and sounded and acted like Spoony and they were both from Arizona. The only differences were political opinions and tastes in music
He's aware and made a couple of jokes about it.
He was inspired by Spoony, only where Spoon had an affable manner Razor radiates contempt for his own audience
You could see the slip from relevance as college thesis multiple hours long videos took over where angry reviews once dominated.
Man I haven't thought about Silvagunner in years. Is that shit still around?
Is he a philosophy major? He strikes me as someone who's studied that shit, couldn't find a job and now makes his money through youtube and streaming.
You forgot
>civvie11 just shills boring indie games now
AVGN's Christmas review of FF3 at least felt like he was genuinely talking about a game he played as a kid and his experiences with it. Everything else for the last couple of years has been really terrible and this one wasn't even that good. It just appeared to have some authenticity.
There is still about 2 hours left for him to make it year of the motherfricking spoony.
I think year of the spoony at this point means the year he kills himself.
I will not accept his comeback if he doesnt apologize for apologizing because he said
"Fithos lusec wecos vinosec" meaning "Real gay real gay sissy gay, sissy gay, gay gay gay gay!"
In my video (linked earlier in the thread) I singled out that apology as an early "How am I not myself?" moment for him. His natural (and the correct) instinct would have been to ignore or laugh off any criticism from the perpetually offended over that, but instead he retreated and betrayed his earlier (true) self.
Where is your shitty video?
I dont understand how people forget his name is fricking Spoony.
Here's my shitty video 😉 https://youtu.be/Hgl9Lrd-bX0
And I don't know what you mean - unless you're referring to the literal meaning of "spoony"?
Why is there a documentary about this guy every year? Is he another ChrisChan?
he's fascinating in that most people WANT him to make a comeback and fix his life
You have to understand how incredibly popular he was, and at his height, Spoony was king. We just want our old jester back.
He's a good guy at his core and I can relate with him a lot.
I wish him luck and happiness in the future.
on one hand I feel sorry for him because I know what a vicious cycle depression that leads to procrastination can be, but on the other I feel fed up because Spoony is the kind of person that will refuse any kind of help and deflect criticism with his tried-and-true method of sarcasm and nihilism
whatever happened to obscurus lupa? wasn't she the one that cancelled spoony?
She's still making videos and got married to Phelous. More importantly she had beef with a neighbour. The neighbour then complained about her on twitter and in her kiwifarms thread
kek, I think that she is just asexual with him
She married Phelous and drags down his numbers when they do content together.
She was the main hag haunting spoony over his joke, yes.
>She married Phelous
So she's Canadas problem now?
I believe she finally moved up there, yes.
But it was a whole thing, they were married and living in different countries for at least a year.
>Iron Liz became a right wing chud who lives at a tax haven called Curaçao
"A tax haven called Curaçao"? What kind of phrasing is that?
Great island by the way, there are worse places to move to for tax purposes.
Liz is trans, right?
LIZ IS A WOMAN!
kek fricking Rekieta before the dark times lol
Before the Jamaican BVLLs
What happened with him? Haven't seen a video of his since the Vic shit.
worst thing is iron liz actually knew a lot about tabletop, especially battletech. only reviewer on the site besides spoony who tackled the subject.
I listened to an interview and Liz said he hates Liberals because they are radicalizing the right by constantly forcing troony shit into everything. Surprised a troony would have an educated take like that.
>the balldo man got catfished
stalker childs, we lost this one
Fricking lazy shit could at least post the videos that used to be on his site
Seriously.. are they even able to be found anymore? I remember his old spoony experiment website with the game reviews
archive.org has pretty much every spoony video
Good old archive.org - saving the day again
well he did that phantasmagoria interview i guess....
No, it was his year
>this untalented, unfunny hack became a millionaire while spoony rots in obscurity
there is no god
