It always sucks to see an old timer go, but yeah, they were not appreciative of that probation. I'm not willing to talk about PMs I've received, but if anyone has any feedback on that probe or the perma (as requested) that followed, my PMs are open.

I kinda think that posting the 'apology' video and then forgetting to de-monetize it when everyone and their mom calls them out on the carpet about it, tells you all you need to know about LTT. Also, posting videos, then having glaring logical flaws in those same videos, then never admitting to those mistakes even when they're clearly pointed out by others, and leaving the videos in their original inaccurate state forever, like it's kind of some loving gospel, really shows off what a narcissist Linus is. When he bitched about spending $500 to retest a product, I just thought that was the height of absurdity after how he showed off his spanking brand new groverhaus that he was able to buy using YTbux that his testing videos brought in..

It's in that weird limbo between Surrey and Langley, iirc. Conveniently it's also a 15 minute drive for me, so we can meet up at LTT and shout LOG OFF LINUS then go for a pint!  e: Google Maps says 188th and 52nd or thereabouts.

I used to live near where longtime CBC anchor Ian Hanomansing lives and would see him at the park with his kids a lot and he's a really personable guy. Said hi the one time and he'd say hi following times etc.. Just a nice dude.

Also ran into Squire Barnes at a 7-11 once, and that dude is even smaller in real life. Like a ventriloquist dummy.
