It's crazy how bad he is at video games even though it's his like main job or whatever. I guess it doesn't matter since he has a podcast empire

In a shocking betrayal of fandom and legality, Justin's just been letting Charlie play the video games for him.

A lot of drama that affects professional women on twitter starts when their sexuality gets mentioned. Or sometimes not even that much, like the milkshake thing.

I mean, it's not like there isn't a hard history of Nick putting up evidence of creepy behavior like it's a big joke that we're all supposed to be in on.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Wva6oo2f6U

Like.. ok, dude said this "teenflirt17" was his girlfriend, and a bunch of people went to message that person and Nick realized *somehow* that it didn't exist. How would he have realized that if he, too, wasn't going to check out this imaginary girlfriend? How thrifsty do you have to be to pretend to be a fake girl and text with people that think you're Actually A Girl. :psyduck:

Really seems like the signs were all there. That video led to this one, where Nick complains in 2015 about getting a temporary ban on Twitch for streaming anime boy sex (the first 5 minutes is him just talking about his new position at Polygon, eeeesh): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=obJcYpAi4n0

Dude just does not understand what is appropriate and what's weird and unacceptable.

yeah as much as we were goofing on "CGI but now with Simone" and such it's far more likely all that stuff is just donezo

Yeah, Griffin's MO seems to be dropping stuff and moving on. They ended Car Boys and Touch the Skyrim (both too soon if you ask me), and he hasn't done another Pokemon series or those Overview reviews he and Justin would do. Phil Kollar got to reveal a card from the new Hearthstone expansion and said they'd do a Hearthstonerz for the single-player content, but I doubt it returns as a regular series.

I doubt anything he's doing with Nick will continue without Nick.

I never had a problem with Nick going blue for jokes and maybe being kind of a Sex Weird, but there's a huge difference between that and actually harassing women, and the latter is the one I actually have a problem with. My thoughts on that specific issue.

Supercar Gautier

I think the reason CGI is donezo is: even if it gets a new co-host, Griffin wouldn't be comfortable pointing people to a podcast with a 99% Nick backlog.

He'll come up with other stuff to do, solo or with other people. Maybe we'll get more frequent Monster Factories for a while. Whatever happens, Griffin's a hard-working guy who's always finding more irons to put in the fire and I'm sure that'll continue.

Why is "mentally ill" circled like it's supposed to be some sort of damning evidence? She even says she's medicated. That's a really gross thing to highlight.

Yeah that's obviously fake, whoever made that doesn't really "get" Babylonians writing schtick.

The top half is hosed up. This is why you don't ask for receipts if you aren't a person directly involved in actually handling the situation. It's none the public's business and whoever gives them is going to have their life completely microexsmined and be a victim of further harassment. And wow, someone is more open to sexual talk on a site explicitly made for sexual talk rather than Twitter. No poo poo.

I have no authority of course, but Please don't post any more of that poo poo here.
