GotLag posted:What's this based on? I haven't watched any of his vids in a while but certainly nothing made me think "this guy is homophobic" Every reference he makes that could be interpreted as sexual is instantly followed by something that amounts to "or the homosexual version of that - not judging / whatever floats your boat / to each their own"... As was pointed out earlier: he doesn't advocate burning bundles of sticks - he seems a bit insecure and afraid to catch the gay.

Based on this parlour diagnosis that he's "afraid to catch the gay" because he uses clumsily inclusive language, you flatly assert that he is a homophobe without any qualification, intentionally putting him in the same category as those who refuse service to gay customers or protest against gay marriage. Woke people are cool.

I like AvE but he started painting his schtick on really heavy and I just couldn’t deal with another “red headed oval office hair”-based measurement anymore (I’m just a computer toucher, so the closest I get to real osha is breathing fumes from the construction in the building next door) Back when AvE was just a dude prospecting for gold he used to put out videos saying poo poo like "we have to get rid of the "jargon" industries use to obfuscate technical terms. Jargon is a bad thing, it causes a barrier to entry." Then he realized making up his own jargon and it would make him a shitload of money on youtube! You literally need a AvE to english dictionary to understand what he's talking about now. That's the antithesis of what he wanted his channel to be. Then....it turns out... he makes more money from his youtube channel than his actual job. His new thesaurus of words just to tell what the gently caress he's talking about is super popular. He LITERALLY became the thing he set out to eliminate. He deleted all of those old videos because he'd rather make patreon money! He was making $110,000 US dollars a year when patreon let him stop show how much he was making a month. At the time he was bitching he wasn't making enough money while he was tearing down $5,000 tools, while making $9000 a month. He's since made his income private and has purchased a new shop and continued to complaining he's not making enough money. Dude is pulling down $150k+ US off his patreon, in canada, while still working an oil industry job. He could quit his daily job and the patreon would still provide more than his previous salary. He's not hurting. Long story short: if you're the sort of person that's upset that he's leaned waaaaaaaaaaaay into the sort of guy that releases a ruler with "a red oval office hair" or "a blonde oval office hair" you're not alone/ He's doing fine. He's going to keep doing fine even if you think what he's doing is inappropriate.

He literally used to pretend like he cared about the newbie that didn't know all the stupid technical euphemisms. All the "gotchas" every industry has to berate new folks. Those things you don't know until you're already in the industry. Then. He invented his own. You literally can't watch one of his videos, excuse me Vijayoes, if you don't already know how to translate them into english. Every single video is jammed packed with a bunch of bullshit word-replacement that you literally need an AvE-to-English translator for. It's quite literally the exact thing he used to rant against. I could give you a list of a dozen machinists, actual machinists, on youtube that don't need to make up their own language

I wrote he was a homophobe because he adds a *not gay* marker to every single comment he makes that could be interpreted as having something do do with sexuality. No more no less.

Aramoro posted:Username and post checks out. Uhhh, if AvE is is a homophobe that's a whole different conversation than I've been a part of. I was talking about his earlier stuff. Please don't drag me in to that. I have my own problems with his modern videos. OR: I'm possibly missing your point completely, again. Post/Username. I grew up in an area of poorly translated French words for Native American names. I'm from a place called La Qui Parle. We undoubtedly pronounce it wrong, in French. We have our own pronunciation in English. It's the Lutefisk Captial of the World. In the French translation of the native name it means something like "lake that speaks" which I guess means we kill a lot of geese there every year. No seriously, "Lake That Speaks" means we have a lot of geese on the lake and we want to make those loving speaking geese shut the hell up with our shotguns because gently caress GEESE." Seriously. Goose killing is a serious business here. You literally rent land for decades in prime goose killing land if you can, and buy specialized goose killing guns, and pay extra for the permit to kill geese there, and set out goose decoys so you can kill goose easier. It's like the goon-ideal. We would do everything in our power to legally kill as many geese as legal. (never enough) MisterOblivious fucked around with this message at 12:00 on Apr 26, 2020 |

LoL I guarenfuckingtee you that you didn't know how New Prauge was pronounced if you don't live here. It's pretty telling you'd pick that out of of all of them. You're either from the area or you pronounced it wrong. Nobody else pronounces it wrong, correctly. You may as well exclude yourself if you're from the region, rear end in a top hat, because you'll already know how things are pronounced locally. I know you got like 10% of those towns in the video. Max. Piss Meridian posted:You are mad about nothing sure, probably. Still think that dude above me is way, way more mad about poo poo he doesn't understand. He's trying to pretend like he can pronounce our local areas properly, but he's wrong. Prauge and New Prauge are confusingly similar. They look very, very alike and sound so very, very dissimilar We pronounce Prauge wrong, Prag, and it easy to identify outsiders. OP mentioned Aitkin. That's a lot, lot harder to pronounce if you're not from around here apparently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwaWCLBtWjk

What about Milan, OH, pronounced My-Lan? The US has proud traditions of loving up names and not bothering to correct people for it. My third-generation italian immigrant family stopped pronouncing their family name correctly in the 1960s.
