You shouldn't let silly things like jobs, friends, and family interfere. I mean, PewDiePie was smart enough to quit college, and now's he bringing in enough money to live on a minimum-wage salary! If you simply abandon your professional and personal lives and focus on entertaining morons on the internet, heck, you could be making hundreds, if not thousands of dollars a year from internet money! If PewDiePie's fans knew how much money he makes they would second guess themselves.

Funnily enough, the RP video was accompanied by a plenty of comments along the lines of "Why should I envy him?

Oh poo poo, I only have 43 subscribers! How can I get people more interested in my unlisted videos that are merely the parts of the game I can't communicate adequately with screenshots or poop jokes? Imagine all the... all the... uh... what's my incentive here, besides having bigger numbers?

So, if we base how good LPers are by their Youtube subscriber count, I'm utter poo poo then, since I'm doing an SSLP and don't even have a Youtube account, right? This is how this works? (I'm kidding, I'm a lovely LPer for other reasons. No Youtube is just the icing on the cake.)

Don't you want to see dozens of comments every time you log onto Youtube? Tons of people saying the same jokes over and over! Arrow to the knee FTW! Like this if you're watching this in 2012! The person who disliked this was [insert reference to villain in video game]! The people love you! They really really do! Pandering works, so if you want to have fans like PDPs then it isn't hard at all.

slowbeef posted:I wanna try one. From: At least this whole thing has taught me exactly why suicide jokes are generally accepted while rape jokes really aren't. This guy is jumping at people making suicide jokes without actually knowing what they were, because he's probably assuming that everyone's just shouting 'kill yourself' at the computer (the fact nobody did is testament to everybody's willpower, really, because that is very tempting) which would be about equal to what PDP does. Only the difference comes in two areas: One, these jokes aren't directed towards demeaning the victim. Unlike PDP's... I'm going to call them victim-shaming jokes, but that's really an insult to the term 'joke', because they're really more loudly shouted remarks. Regardless, the suicide jokes aren't demeaning suicide victims; the object of the joke is how insufferable PDP is, it's demeaning him and saying that yes, he is that insufferable. Rape jokes are almost universally thinly-veiled threats and/or victim-shaming. They're also actual jokes, with setups, and punchlines. They aren't just screaming controversial subjects at a screen until they run out of breath.

If this person had been critical of PewDiePie before for the rape jokes, I would have some respect for them. At least that would be sticking to some coherent value system. But they're just making some nonsensical "well he jokes about rape but you made a joke about suicide so you're hypocrites so Pewdie is fine" argument so I don't.
