All Youtube comments should be presented in upbeat song form.

You know, if it weren't for all the death threats and account hackings and attempted swattings, GamerGate would be totally worth it for comedy's sake. If you had told me a year ago that there was an entire group of adult humans who think they are being oppressed by negative video game reviews, I would not have believe it. But here we are.

Not even negative video game reviews, just people saying "hey maybe women should be portrayed as something other than disposable set pieces more often."

My solace is that ten years from now, these kids will look back and realize what idiots they are.


StanleyPain - 2014-11-08

I seriously doubt it, frankly.


MacGyver Style Bomb - 2014-11-09

Well, the ones who don't end up assimilating into the MRA scene, conspiracy theorists, political extremists or some other batshit insane fringe group.

"If you'd a told me twenty years ago
I'd see children walkin' the streets
of our Texas towns thinking they are being oppressed by negative video game reviews I just flat out
wouldn't have believed you"

"Signs and wonders. But I think once
you stop hearin' sir and madam the
rest is soon to follow."

I keep hoping they are mostly misguided teens who will grow out of it. But I know three people involved in GamerGate that I have met in person. They are all adult men in their thirties. They were shitty people prior to GamerGate, but still.

I know for a fact that I've encountered "Art Vandalay" somewhere on youtube.

Five Stars. Because that's all I've got.

Installing the plugin that hides youtube comments is somewhere toward the top of the best things I've ever done.


That guy - 2014-11-08

Do they make one for poetv replies, fatty fatpants?


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2014-11-08

Very witty, Mr. Wilde! Very VERY witty!!

nice reference, your highness

I felt like a member of the Algonquin Roundtable when I came up with that one.

Is Beta actually an insult nowadays?


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2014-11-09

If you're an alpha.


Xenocide - 2014-11-09

Yeah, man, they're comparing you to the crappiest stage of software development. Implying your coding is riddled with bugs and whatnot.


fluffy - 2014-11-09

Beta as in not an alpha male. Said by girlfriend-less MRAs/PUAs/etc., in this case to someone who is happily married with a kid. (Oh but his wife's the main breadwinner and he's a stay-at-home dad so obviously that makes him a "beta.")


MacGyver Style Bomb - 2014-11-09

Whenever someone starts talking about alpha and beta males, I just like to think that they're comparing themselves to feces-flinging primates.


Adham Nu'man - 2014-11-09

'Cause posting insults to random strangers on the internet is the least manly thing I can think of...


ashtar. - 2014-11-09

It's just a new science-y sounding word for the same old REAL MANLY MAN/weak pussy chump thing that has been making men feel insecure for the last few thousand years.

Someone saying alpha/beta like it's real thing is a convenient signal that their opinions on everything can be safely ignored.


cognitivedissonance - 2014-11-09

What's hilarious to me is that the very same people who would USE "alpha/beta" as a pejorative quite likely also deny the theory of evolution.


Sexy Duck Cop - 2014-11-09

I want to kill myself and die.


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2014-11-09

This guy's channel makes me want to live.


Sanest Man Alive - 2014-11-09

Actually, GooberGrape is about jelly in peanut butter journalism.
