If you had just said rural that would've been even more off since there's a bunch of metro areas (yeah, mostly in the midwest) where having a car is the norm.

It's the norm because people actually live 50mi away from their jobs in the city, TBF. Anyway, point is that reaction is as American as apple pie.

I'll admit I only watched a few of her streams a long while ago but what does Paige do if she's not playing games for a living?

Her job involves traveling a lot, she only streams when she has free time as a hobby.

If Woolie continues to invite new, competent people to his fighting game streams then the youtube archives of that show will probably be the only thing I stick with.

I feel like the podcasts are getting artificially longer, as if they're dragging conversations along for the sake of having something to clip for youtube later.

Tae posted:

The best change is Woolie listening to feedback from the live chat because maaaan that Daughter/Son mistake would've been bad if left alone.

It would have been great because the only way Woolie being smug about people not knowing pop culture references is funny is when he gets them wrong.

Crymetina Critiques Smash Bros was pretty funny :shobon: Matt really needs someone to bounce off of is all. Like the Bloodborne thing he did with Liam recently was solid.

Paige added nothing last time (Also she doesn't really play games or keep up with news), Plague is basically the worst of Matt and Pat at full power

Pretty much, though her "were you the basketball?" zing at Pat was flawless

I can gauge exactly where a person is from by their reaction to an adult saying "I don't know how to drive".

If that reaction is HOLY poo poo HOW ARE YOU AN ADULT AND YOU CAN'T DRIVE, I know that motherfucker is either from Midwest America or California.

I narrow it down from their follow-up being either "how do you get to places even" or "how do you make rent even".
I don't drive because 1) I'm scared to death of driving (and crashing) 2) Not owning a car is the reason I'm not in debt from college.
Even though I live fairly far from Portland (Maine) Metro.

I don't trust Paige until I see an apology. She's probably dense, but I'm not willing to forgive and forget based on that

Pat is funny, but he reminds me too much of the kind of person I used to be that it's kind of uncomfortable.

In any case, all I need is Liam's KH streams.

Why do you have to forgive her? Why does she have to apologize?

If you dont like her and dont want to watch stuff with her in it or she is adjacent to, that's perfectly reasonable. No need to justify it.

You are making a decision about whether or not to watch media sound like a personal relationship

I have no idea what they're talking about, Woolie was just disappointed about the state of Titanfall and annoyed at Windows 10 automatic updates.

Not literally every tangential negative thing is Woolie working through the depression of the Best Friends Breakup (tm).

I don't watch anything she shows up in, but thanks for reducing my discomfort, as a trans woman, with somebody who doubled down on going on a show with a nazi and talked over a trans woman being uncomfortable with it down to being a weirdo.

Do you also get bothered by people not wanting to watch Woody Allen movies because he's a creep?

Personally I do my best to forget that people may have personal reasons for caring about things more than I do.

I also get very hostile and agitated when I hear people are vegan or vegetarian as well. What, you think you're better than me because you don't eat meat, is that it?!

It's both, she is not the brightest, and probably should have done some research about that guy.

But talking with someone she outright says she disagreed with is not something one needs to apologize for in my opinion.

I don't think Paige is a Bad Person, but I think she hangs out with some bonafide idiots and is very defensive about that. If that makes you not wanna watch or support Pat's stream, I think that's a personal decision, and I think it's understandable.

I mean, the bonafide idiot there is Dick Masterson IMHO, everyone worse than that involved with her was his acquaintance, Paige doesn't really hang out with alt-right assholes in her spare time outside of that as far as I know. Dude also connected her with a gay furry dude that took her to a furrycon so even though I personally think he's poo poo, I can see Paige only seeing the good side of that stuff.

Roth

I don't think Paige is an irredeemable monster or anything, but the fact that her first response was to talk over a trans woman voicing her concern to her is very concerning to me. The lack of any kind of acknowledgement about it as far as I'm aware, just signals to me that she's not somebody I should support, but I guess that's too hot of a take to give in the midst of people talking about supporting Paige or not. Better save the meltdowns for serious topics like somebody not liking tank controls.

Wow, this really went terribly. I have a habit of being absolutely garbage at saying what I mean when I'm not just completely leaving half of my post unsaid. I didn't mean to equate not liking nazis and being trans with people giving vegetarians poo poo for no good reason honestly, but more that people have a set level of tolerance for poo poo and that depends person to person and if someone isn't willing to just let bygones be bygones after signal boosting some nazi adjacent POS maybe take a :thunk: on why they'd have less patience for that. The vegan and vegetarian things were more just examples that didn't really apply too well, now that you call it out.

I mean, you get tricked, you say sorry and try to move on, you don't lash at the people who try to clue you in on what's going on so you don't end up getting branded #1 nazi supporting twitch streamer like what happened to Papa Johns.

I dunno. I'd say 99.999% of people in America don't know how to drive a car. Most of them can erratically move one around on the road though. And jokes aside, I still think in most parts of America someone would receive a confused look for being an adult and saying: "I never learned to drive."


Everyone on here seems to hate Plague being on Woolie's podcast. I don't mind it. I generally just like hearing Plague talk though, even if he seems to be missing Woolie's point. At the same time Woolie Will Figure it Out episodes 1 and 3 just kind of seemed to be Woolie and Josh talking about how their idea was the best thing ever (and seeming to not actually let it go) while Plague just kind of tried to criticize it somewhat. I sort of felt like their game idea wasn't that interesting (just for how it worked, not for the idea of what it was). Their manga I liked a bit more.

The thing here is that I don't think it had anything to do with the person talking with her. I think she would have talked over regardless Trans woman or not. She's a pretty proud person along with being a bit dense.
