But aside from the 12 year old tits thing, aren't you guys excited for his forthcoming appearance on South Park: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uirZ0bDzoYQ. I think that means we've all hit the big time.

EDIT: vvvvv :barf: vvvvv

EDIT 2: Just reading that article, and the author says basically "Yeah, I can't watch his stuff for more than a minute", which I guess then opens him up to a ton of internet backlash, which he has to defend himself against. Holy poo poo, I hate website commenters.

Given his audience, I would not be surprised if Pewdiepie had access to a significant amount of naked underage girls, and his "joke" had more than a hint of truth to it.


I have also never heard anything at all relating Snapchat to naked children. He's a pioneer here.

Seems they live just too short to be 12 at the life span of 11 years and 7 months :v:

Speaking of PDP, and by that I mean I'm not actually talking about him, I watched some of Markiplier cause I wanted to see what Five Nights At Freddy's is all about and man that intro phone call. The whole time he's just making noise, and he gets millions of views.

What really sucks is Markiplier has an amazing voice and is apparently a genuinely cool guy, and he'd probably be really fun to watch if he gave up being a PewDiePie copycat.

But then he'd be giving up millions of dollars, too.

That's what saddens me about him. He's extremely popular because he's a genuinely nice, intelligent guy who respects people suffering from mental illnesses like depression and bipolar disorder and he can be quite funny. He just spends so much time screaming and talking loudly over the games he plays that he becomes grating to watch.

I'd love to give the guy views and suggest him to other people, but he's just not very enjoyable.

I will give Mark that, his voice is pretty awesome. I think its like Totalbiscut who have some good audio quality in their videos.

Every so often I'm reminded that there are videos on Nico Nico Douga with 200,000 views where someone reuploads a Markiplier video and subtitles the whole thing in Japanese. I don't know why him particularly, there's a few Pewdiepie videos but they're nowhere near as popular.

I don't think TotalBiscuit is a super amazing person but I have no real beef with him. He apologized for things like that thread and telling someone to get cancer and die a while back, and I don't think him saying he was a part of GG is any real reason to hate him. He's a British internet guy with cancer who talks about video games. He'll say things you don't like sometimes, but as far as I've seen he isn't a total rear end in a top hat anymore.

Also Markiplier does have a genuinely cool voice, I was surprised when I watched a Did You Know Gaming video a while back and it turned out he was the guy reading out all the facts and trivia.

Dead weight, just like this post.



Just because he creates content that people enjoy doesn't mean he can't be held accountable for stupid things he's said and done.

But he also doesn't get a free pass just because there is something wrong with him mentally since it's up to him to help himself.

but I and the majority of use her dont know whats really going on so we can't rely make judgements can we? Although I do hope he can eventually get back to his LP, I wanna see more cool stuff about Dark Souls I never knew about.


But off of that topic, I've been watcing Marikplyers Five Nights at Freddies videos. As much as i hate to actually give him views his are probably the better video quality wise than alot of them. Its funny to me how he slowly drops the OMG THIS IS SO CREEPY GUYS mentality as the game actually gets challenging and requires you to actually pay attention
