"The Dwarf migrants sent into the channel to clear the blockage lacked the necessary training and equipment for entry into hazardous, magma-drenched enclosed spaces. PPE consisted of rotting spidersilk jumpers, a kobold-leather cloak, and highly-flammable wooden helmets soaked in plump helmet beer. One worker brought her infant daughter into the channel, carried in one arm.

The workers were not informed of the magma resivour just four tiles away from the work area that was quickly reaching critical capacity due to the blockage, and no effort was made to shut down the magma pumps feeding into the system.

The facilities' lock-out procedure also proved to be a contributing factor in the disaster; with no physical blocks or signage in place, the intricate, lever-based control system was instead merely closed off to workers via a simple locked olivenite door. Lever-pulling children were not informed of the work going on in magma channel 03. Finally, on the day of the accident, eyewitness accounts stated that the blockading door was wedged open by the rotting corpse of a butterfly."

I just want to say i really appreciate this.

Oh it's definitely a shtick. If you go back and watch his early videos, he's a very different character. Also, everything is planned/staged with him. The junk on his bench, the little mistakes, he practically scripts that stuff now.

No, you're not a weirdo. The people who love the schtick so much that they give him ~$150,000 a year are cringey as gently caress.

AvE is...problematic.

He knows a lot of poo poo about a lot of things and sometimes comes up with clever ideas. His way of speaking can be entertaining.

He also knows poo poo-all about some things, but either doesn't realize this or pretends otherwise, and shoots off his mouth. His way of speaking can be needlessly disgusting and offensive. For instance, this is a ruler he sells -- notice the scale on the right end



Before anyone says "well that's just how old shop guys talk" ask yourself why it should be okay just because that's how things have always been.

Even more horrifying than the content on the right side of the ruler... He misspelled "Width". Is it really too hard to spellcheck something you're charging money for? Isn't one of his major shticks that companies should put more effort into their products and not half-rear end stuff?

Welcome to the future, where everything is racist and everything is sexist and everything is offensive and everything is bad for you.

I don't get the virtue signalling by taking each and every opportunity to delight in offense. Maybe I am just a piece of poo poo, I don't know.

Some people are literally not going to be happy until they start handing out citations for breach of the verbal morality statutes.

Oh, don't get me wrong, he's far from the worst I've heard from old shop dudes. I've worked in a shop around career machinists and welders and carpenters for like a decade now and, well, let's just say you quickly learn which ones you don't wanna get started on The Jews

The guy has a young daughter (maybe more than one). I would hope he'd get why it's not really cool in a professional setting to refer to measuring things in "oval office hairs" and especially to make a distinction between the types of pubic hair women of different ethnic backgrounds purportedly have

go find a female co-worker and casually drop a reference to a small distance being "two blonde oval office hairs wide" and see how she responds. bonus points if you call her reaction "petty"
