"Let's be positive! Let's start a fire!"


I know contributing to the "SpoonyWatch 2012" direction of this topic isn't helping, but jesus christ, his twitter comments today are getting absolutely out of hand. Now he's just lashing out at everything and everyone regardless if they're making fun of him or actually trying to give him good advice.

Pretty soon TGWTG/Channel Awesome may end up dropping him. And when considering that may be Spoony's only real source of income, well....

In case you didn't get it, he was comparing Andy Warhol's direction of Vinyl to Doug's direction of the 4th Year Anniversary Special. He was probably just making a friendly joke, but it's still pretty drat funny.

I don't get it, from what I have gathered they didn't have a messy break up did they? I could understand the bitterness and misery had she really screwed him over but it seemed like a fairly standard break up.

It's easy to forgive Spoony's outbursts, but day after day after day? No, it's not cool to burden your fans with this sort of drama. I'd hate to imagine if Spoony had become a successful TV personality or something, all of this would be ten times worse. (Although he'd probably have an agent/manager who'd keep this nonsense under wraps).




Also oh boy my partner and I appear to be getting harassed by one of Spoony's fans because many months ago I made a tweet calling Spoony out on some possibly sexist comments made in a video.

Oh my.

ACTUALLY she did the voice of Ask That Guy's GPS in that one video.

Also the fans hate her because there's like, ONE picture of her out there and she's kind of heavy.
E: Yeah I should of just shut the gently caress up about that

Anyway is it just me or is Spoony turning into Floyd Pinkerton from the Wall. I mean seriously he is alienating everyone he knows with his behavior.

There's something else he says at the start of the review; he mentions that it's been a while since anybody heard from him, then says he had been to see a neurologist, then he mutters something that's a little indistinct. Can anybody make out what it is?

You could see her in the Magfest videos in 2011 with Spoony months before the breakup. I heard she was tall and kind of a dom from again what I heard. Also I remember one time after said Magfest that Lordkat would have loved to titfuck her.

I was aware that Diamanda Hagan is Irish, but I didn't realise she is from the north. I have to admit I haven't watched her videos, but Northern Irish accents tend to be pretty distinctive and I can't really pick one out from her guest appearances in videos I've seen.

On the bright side. Oancitizen's got a new review out. . A bit shorter than his usual stuff, but there doesn't seem to be that much to say about this movie.

Sorry to distract from SpoonyWatch: June Issue, but I just felt like highlighting this review because it's surprisingly funny. Like holy hell this is not a movie that's hard to make fun of, but Oan refrains from going for the low hanging fruit and instead actually does comprehensive analysis of the movie... while mercilessly poking fun at it. It's also one of the few times you can legitimately say that the review of the movie was literally better produced than the movie he's reviewing. But really, it's that joke at the end that had me laughing the hardest cause drat that's one of the best 's I have ever seen. The build up was pitch perfect, as was the delivery, and that loving grin at the end. You'd need to know what's going on around CA to get it, but I don't think that'll be a problem in this thread.

I think that thread is taking it a bit too far - Spoony's videos are good, and he doesn't seem like an awful guy when he's stable, so he's not mock thread material.

I dunno, it seems a bit vulture-y, he's a severly depressed man who makes funny videos. Seems like the guy needs help, not gwaking.

I agree. While it's evident that he's self-destructing in a fabulous "There but for the grace of God go I" fashion, it's also sad to see a guy that's legitimately depressed slip farther and farther into it. Even though he's lashing out and vilifying his friends, I believe that thread is preying on a person with serious issues.

True, but it isn't every day where you see self-destruction of a person unfold before your eyes.

But it has been getting ridiculous to the point where other reviewers are starting to get dragged into the mess.

I found that Black Nerd guy pretty funny with some legitimate and interesting insight about the rising popularity of Carlton. Also the YouTube/Blip jokes were funnier than they should've been.

Also man, does anyone else find it somehow hilariously appropriate that Oancitizen was the one who did the Carlton dance the best out of everyone during the montage?

I thought the Black Nerd was pretty cool and I'll check his stuff out next time. What I noticed most was he has a kick rear end camera or something. I try not to be the kind of guy who nit-picks technical issues for low budget internet reviews, but his footage really contrasted with the other producers.

Yeah, especially considering that the most popular anything on youtube is all universally unwatchable, it was nice to see one who had something to say and also wasn't a vapid, painful mess of jump cuts. Definitely planning to check out the rest of his work when I get some free time.

It's weird because when he started he was just a voice that gave some interesting facts about animation which he is a HUGE fan of (and as we see to creepy levels) if you want to be even more creeped out just go on his DA page.
