When I first saw the Guardians of the Galaxy teaser I thought it was hilarious and awesome that Marvel was using a Hasselhoff song to promote it ironically.

This has not gone full Spoony yet, but it is getting pretty bad and it's disappointing to see. He said he's gonna try and clear the air on a livestream tomorrow, but I'd advise him to calm the gently caress down first, or at least have a civil conversation with someone who disagrees with him, before he digs that hole any deeper. Shame, he's a funny guy, I don't want this to get out of hand. I literally have not been able to watch a single Spoony video since his meltdown.

He's also defending the harassment campaign against the Depression Quest lady. (PlebComics is more or less what you get if A.W.Mann wanted to be a bit more subtle, but just a lil'.) Then again he could film himself loving a child, shooting said child in the head, use Jacques as the condom and gently caress the kid in the bullet hole, put said footage on LiveLeak, WorldStarHipHop and Mixy under his real name, and he would still get invited to Gaming events and the parents of the dead kid would get screamed at for "believing stuff only Kotaku and Tumblr cares about". I feel bad for the Iron Sheik and the guy who made Karate Cop for sharing a similar ethnicity from this guy. At least there wasn't a cynical attempt to co-opt the Ferguson haps this time.

I think we have to remember that these dudes are almost totally ignorant when it comes to things outside of whatever dumb hobby they enjoy. This is the same guy who waxed passionately about how cool Ron Paul is on a let's play.

You cite a tweet linking to a picture I can't even see for myself before I am told exactly his evil motives and why I should be outraged (complete with the hottest buzz words). Then you hilariously imply that his actions and views are somehow representative of his entire race. And the cherry on top is you, at the end of your post, pay tribute to a guy whose modern day fame is threatening anal rape and calling people gay faggots. What the gently caress is wrong with you.

These people, thanks to the internet and poo poo, get a large amount of fame, but unlike real celebs and poo poo they don't get much money for it, so 99% probably CAN'T just hire a dude to say 'what, you want to compare yourself to lynching victims, are you a loving moron?'

A picture that you can easily go to by typing that url, "internet buzzwords" like ethnicity and co-opt because apparently having a vocabulary = buzzwords, and a "tribute" to someone who actually bothered to going to Howard Stern, being fully aware that he was gonna get called out for some of the worst poo poo he did (Namely going after Hulk Hogan's son), instead of hiding in a hole on a twitter that's mostly run by his nephew (I think). Just that was way more initiative than what JT does, hence why I picked someone as explosive and abrasive as him. But BBG's got a point on that I should at least keep better standards for myself if I go after someone like that.

Stink gently caress Rob posted:Well, it was fun defending Jontron while it lasted An apt metaphor. A bit heavy-handed though, too on-the-nose, 7/10. Oh right sorry I mean gently caress Jontron yeah he said retard he should die yeah gently caress him and stuff god what a privileged jerk MisterBadIdea posted:This has not gone full Spoony yet, but it is getting pretty bad and it's disappointing to see.

I don't think you can have civil conversations with people who call you a sexist or abuse enabler, but let's hope for the best, to say nothing of people getting mad at him for saying an "ableist" word and then mocking him for his weight or, uh, ethnicity.

You know given my post about JO's twitter a week ago, i don't care about twitter drama, i don't watch jontron and only watch spoony's wrestling reviews to laugh at him getting mad over non issues in the WWE. I guess i just hate twitter. and if i ever become famous for videos it will just be used for updates and funny jokes about a movie i am reviewing. and it not just internet reviewers but phil fish and that MS executive who was trashing small towns during the always online drama. so to cheer everyone up. brad tries the state fair with Jake, Sarah and Lupa. http://www.thecinemasnob.com/brad-tries/brad-tries-the-state-fair-2014 I know this will Cheer folks up a bit.

Yes, because what I am doing right now is talking to a bunch of people on the internet and what I am not doing is delivering a paid speech to jim crow survivors. Every single person in this thread who read my post knows I do not mean literal hangings. I am not offending anyone here (not that I would ever give a poo poo if the word lynch made someone who registered on Something Awful break down into tears).

Just that was way more initiative than what JT does, hence why I picked someone as explosive and abrasive as him. I can't follow the url because it's obviously been shortened by twitter on the screenshot (URLs do not end in '...'). Also by buzzwords I was referring to the tweet in your link, not your post. I pointed it out because if it was loving Jim Sterling's twitter saying/linking to the exact same thing in the screenshot I would still raise an eyebrow at that person's language telling me exactly how outraged I should feel. The language you used inside your [url] tags, the tweet's language and the fact that the smoking gun is a link I can't even click or type just come off so god drat sketchy, misleading and hyperbolic I can't stand it.

Basically none of the backlash against jontron is about his original comments, but is about the way worse stuff he continues to say in order to defend himself, hth. It's amazing how Internet gamer pseudo celebrities didn't learn literally anything from penny arcade.

KKall posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmTUW-owa2w The video makes a lot of fair points. One bit I'd quibble with, however, is the part where the narrator talks about the audience being upset because "Phil Fish doesn't act the way "we" feel famous people should act." Honestly, I think it's more that he didn't act the way "we" feel anyone should act." Being an arrogant rear end is unbecoming no matter how many twitter followers you have. That said, the video does smartly zero in on the internet's tendency to latch on to certain people it considers a heel and just never let up.
