Sometimes I wonder why I'm subbed to certain people. I was watching a user named McJuggerNuggets for a few months now and liked watching the "Psycho Series". But after tonight's video, I'm STRONGLY considering pulling my subscription. Like seriously, I get entertainment out of those angry videos such as Greatest Freak Out Ever and the thousands of Angry German Kid parodies, but the latest Psycho Series episode, Jesse went too far. WAAAAAAAAAY too far. Basically, he's pranked by his brother who got a hot pink paint job on his car. So what's he do? Demands his friends and screams at them while filming to throw the brother's motorcycle into a water-filled ditch. And it shows how much of a baby he is; the video had 1k likes and 150 dislikes. Now it's 10k likes to almost 28k dislikes, and the asshole's subscriber count is doing down hard.

 

Reminds me of another YouTuber that I un-subbed from years ago just for him randomly blocking me for no reason. Not to mention he's full of himself. He's a Let's Player and he acts like larger, far better, more entertaining and successful LP's like Chuggaaconroy and NintendoCapriSun are crap. Not to mention OPENLY bashing them. That's a great way to have your subscriber count drop, not to mention a flood of dislikes. Then again, I unsubbed someone else for insulting me while streaming. All I did was post a comment saying I enjoyed his videos and he had to call me the "F" word. Yeah, goodbye scumbag.

 

I'll keep my subscription to McJuggerNuggets for a day or two more, but there's a high chance I'm going to leave one highly toxic comment about how much a loser the guy is (inb4 deleted or his die-hard fanboys tear me to pieces) and never look back. I thought the raging was funny, but with him SCREAMING and DEMANDING his friends to do things while doing jack shit has gone on far too long. It's like anything else; verbally abuse someone long enough and they WILL snap and say that enough is enough.

I remember seeing one of the first psycho kid videos long ago. I didn't even realize it had become a series.

 

So, looking at this latest video... alright, I understand if it had been a standalone video that popped up out of nowhere. But still, I have to ask - isn't that essentially what people tune in for? Though I'm not much of a fan, I get that the raging parodies(?) have their charm - and the guy clearly established that was the purpose of this particular series. I mean, in this case, it wasn't just the freak-out behavior. The very first incident involved notable property destruction. The kid's been smashing TVs and burning Christmas trees. His dad's axed up an SUV and shredded through pretty much every kind of modern technology over the years. After all they've gone through so far, why would this particular video be the breaking point?

 

I mean, with it being presented as a series, not to mention the consistent formulaic rehash, I have to assume it's an act. And with it being published under the "RiDGiD studios" moniker, it stands to reason that this production crew, like any other competitive studio, would always be upping their game and taking the next step - part of which means spending more and more on making these videos. That's just how sequels go, after all. So, since there's probably already been tens of thousands of dollars in property damage over the series, should the bike be the bill that makes people think it's gone over the top? And if it's the kid's act, is this so much worse than videos of him ruining holidays or relationships for the rest of the family? And if people don't believe it's being acted at all, has the line not already been crossed long ago? Or is there some reason to think that this is the video where the acting stopped and real crimes began to be committed? (Assuming the bike wasn't a prop or didn't get pulled right back out after the video.)

 

I'm not trying to change your mind or anything. Joker or not, his attitude's a major put-off. I'm just trying to think... if I was running a channel, and dedicated it to a particular topic, and people started watching and subbing because I was good at that topic, then I'd continue with the topic. And if that still brought in more watchers and more subs, then I'd try to make each video bigger and better, to keep things fresh and ambitious. And if I put on my biggest and best show yet and everybody started unsubscribing, I'd be very confused.

I've been having incredible luck recently.  I have an assignment due that requires powerpoint, and my computer doesn't have powerpoint. I go to get the free version the school provides, and the entire email services are down. My email, and my school email. SO I can't get powerpoint. This is after 2 days of being without internet and power due to a transformer exploding over in kingston, rendering the entire area without power. Just great.

So I'm back here again.  I took a break for I don't know, like, a couple months?  I've been having some issues in school, and I've also been working on wrapping up the requirements for my Eagle Scout rank, since the day I age out of Boy Scouts is rapidly approaching.  I have just about everything sorted out, so I should be back here regularly again now.

[Ventus]

[TK8305]

I'm currently getting over a bad cough.  Otherwise doing good atm!  Halloween & Trick or Treating just ended here.  Plenty of leftover candy for me to enjoy going into November.  w00t!

Spent my Halloween as any other day. Though I'm glad my little siblings had fun.

I got totally wasted last night drunk at least 4 six packs of beer. And woke up this morning with a major hangover. And a case of the munchies. Tried cooking some home made milk gravy to eat with some old porkchops and the gravy turned out great.

 

Mother said that the gravy that I made was even better then my grandmothers home cooked gravy lol. I guess I'm a cooking god when hung over.

Looks like I have to transfer my tafe work for next year. I finish on the 20th of this month and there is no way I will be able to complete it in time. I already arranged it and the teachers said it's fine since the system works a little differently fortunately for me. Looks like none of my peers have the time to complete their studies yet likewise. Either way, I'm so close to finishing grade 12, but it looks like I'm going to miss out this year's graduation, always next year's I suppose.

Got a 85% on my Midterm for my EMT class.  Things are looking up.  I've been stressed about it a lot lately, since the class typically requires about 30-35 hours of homework a week.

I got a 9/10 on my AP Environmental Science FRQ. So that's nice.

I finally hatched my shiny Misdreavus today after 182 eggs.  To be honest, I'm actually pretty surprised I got it as soon as I did.  I was even more surprised that it was actually male, meaning that it matches my avatar!  Maybe I'll even edit my avatar to be shiny at some point, idk.

We had a sub today in PE.  I realized I'd never seen her before (our district doesn't have many subs), so I checked her lanyard for her name, which happened to be "Mrs. K. Ruel".  I almost died right there on the gym floor.
