Collected here are various examples of posts you have made or attempted to make (the latest at the bottom, which I have denied approval of on my blog). Now, admittedly, I have no way of confirming that you are indeed the same person in all of these, since I lack the ability to track IP addresses or the like, but I think many people will notice a consistent theme in the text, wording, and phrasing that’s pretty damn consistent across the board.
I don’t know what your deal is. Perhaps you have some kind of social disorder where you lack the ability to use tact or are unable to understand social conventions and how certain wording or language can be considered offensive or just in really terrible taste. Maybe it’s not your fault at all and you just need counseling/medication/treatment of some kind that will help you realize why these kinds of things are really not smart things to be saying.
Or perhaps you’re just a total idiot.
Because I don’t know you personally, I tend to err on the side of “total idiot” because I have no evidence to suggest otherwise, hence why I am referring to you in this post and any potential future communication merely as “Assface,” since everything you say is utter crap.
Now some might say that you are just craving attention, Assface, and I should not bother with this subject any longer lest I grant you the attention you so lustfully desire. And perhaps they are right. However, there is also a great satisfaction to be found in breaking down stupidity as seen above. It is quite cathartic for me and I imagine cathartic for others, which is why I am publically posting it and allowing others to share in tilting their heads that such an assface could possibly be this completely clueless.
I hate that I have to keep explaining this to you, but see: I don’t have any problem with criticism on a video featuring my dear departed friend Justin. In fact, if you look at the comments on my blog for the Dr. Strange review, you will find a few bits of negative criticism, both because of the nature the crossover being awkward for people as well as just people noticing graphical glitches, people saying the humor wasn’t up to par, or just any other remark that actually IS criticism.
However, YOUR remarks are not criticism. YOUR remarks are being an assface simply because (shock of all shocks) Justin was in crossover videos that I participated in and thus I am posting them. And furthermore, that my fellow producers actually have a surplus of tact and understanding how seeing Justin so soon after his death would be uncomfortable for people, but they still feel Justin would have wanted the videos released, so they did so.
YOU, on the other hand, think that seeing three videos about him (my Gameboy #3 review, the appearance in the Pokémon 4Ever review, and the Dr. Strange crossover) is “getting ridiculous.” You don’t seem to be able to tell the difference between someone we actually knew and loved and cared about personally and an actor who (as far as I know) none of us have ever met in person and how one person’s death will affect us more than another person’s. And that there is a difference between dark humor (like that featured in the Bill and Ted comic review) or just casually being an asshole to people still grieving (your phrasing of how Justin died).
But of course, I’m just a big hypocrite, apparently. And so are many of my friends and colleagues, I guess. And maybe we are. I doubt it, but it’s possible. But the thing is… we’ll acknowledge our mistakes and move on. You, however, don’t move on. You maintain delusions and made-up theories about things you don’t like.
See, the final proverbial nail in the equally proverbial coffin for you (what confirmed your identity to me) was that comment about Mara Wilson. Over on TGWTG itself, I recall this dumbass who frequented the forums who had a real hate-on for Doug. Why? Because he couldn’t fathom, couldn’t conceive that Mara Wilson would appear at the end of the “A Simple Wish” review and pretend to have evil glowing eyes and dark powers and whatnot in what as clearly a hyperbolic exaggeration played up for laughs. Oh no, this person thought that such a thing would be humiliating and offensive to Mara (even though it really is not).
As such, this person made up something in his head about Mara Wilson being BLACKMAILED into appearing in the video, that she didn’t WANT to do it, and that any appearance by her later was coercion and evil and he would obsess about it constantly. This is of course ridiculous, especially to me since I’ve had the good fortune of meeting Mara Wilson at least twice now and she has loved the stuff she’s done and has been an all-around good sport and seems to enjoy her current career as a writer.
I hadn’t really thought about this person in years because eventually they got kicked off the forums (if I recall correctly). But wait! A friend of mine sent an e-mail to me recently about some sleuthing they had done, since they recognized some post styles you used on yet ANOTHER account. Aaah, and here’s where it all ties together. I’m leaving this friend of mine anonymous for the moment because I don’t know if they wish to reveal themselves. However, upon examination of that other account you post as (which I’m not revealing what it is at the moment for my own reasons), they were able to very quickly link various sockpuppets and names you’ve used before, including other people you’ve posted as on TGWTG. Aaand it all kind of comes together and makes perfect sense when I think about it – the inability to tell fantasy from reality, adopting bizarre fan theories as fact, and just simply being unable to get over anything and move past it… yeah, it’s all the same guy. It really, honestly is the little things that make me sigh and shake my head.
Sir, you are an assface. And you don’t even realize it. Now kindly stop polluting my blog with your incompetence any longer. I grow so very tired of it when I could instead be doing more valuable things with my time.
