As a lifelong Washingtonian and occasional Mariners fan, I was so happy to see Bois give Dave Niehaus and Edgar Martinez their due.

It shouldn't be forgotten that his written articles are amazing too.

The first thing I ever read of his is the original NBA Y2K: The Death of Basketball, and it's still one of my favs. Can't forget about the eulogy for RadioShack either.

Or his Twine masterpiece, the Bill Belichick Offseason Simulator.

They're so universal too. You don't need to have any knowledge about these subjects coming in.

I don't browse SA on mobile, and don't know if it's even an option on desktop. So I just straight up ignore any post that's a contextless youtube link because years of being on the internet have taught me that's always a bad idea.

You just go into Edit Options and under Thread View say yes to "Show video embedded in posts with the [video] tag?"

I swear vids used to automatically embed when you put the link in but I guess that's not the case anymore?

Oh, and Boogie is now in the county clink. It still blows my mind a bit that he might not be there if he'd straight up shot the guy in the chest.

In the browser if you Ctrl+V the link it will automatically be wrapped in a [video] tag which will make it embed. Right-click -> Paste skips that automatic conversion, and the mobile apps have their own behavior (in the Android app you need to explicitly request a [video] tag, but doing so is actually more convenient than just pasting the URL directly as you don't need to long-press to access the VBCode tag menu like you do to paste).

I can't say I like Boogie, but this bums me out a little bit. He hosed up, bad, but it was a gently caress-up in the face of extreme harassment.

I don't exaggerate even a little bit when I say John Bois' video on 24 is my favourite Youtube video of all time. It's either that or Phelous' Smallville finale video, which has one of the greatest punchlines ever put to video. :discourse:

There's no one I'd rather be than me.

Jim Stearling new video is really good.

Bryan Alverez on his show (for those that don't know, he's a pro wrestling Journalist) was talking about how much RAW sucks now and how much he hates it and if this wasn't his job he wouldn't watch it. His co host Mike suggested that they don't talk about RAW and talk about litterally anything else pro wrestling. Bryan comes backnwirh WWE is the biggest pro wrestling company on the planet and a big reason people listen to his show.

Which gets me thinking, why do we focus so much on negative poo poo in hobbies or the bullshit arguments. Im not saying ignoring stuff like Ubisoft hid sexual assault allegations for years, but more if we don't want to have the argument about easy modes, dont talk about it. Talk about litterally anything else.

I’d say it’s because people are more likely to share negative opinions in general (since it’s cathartic to vent about something that annoys you) and this is also likely to provoke negativity in people who read them and disagree. So you have a feedback loop where everyone is pissing everyone else off, causing more people to join in and both escalating and lengthening the discussion.

Yeah this has been my feel on it about the whole time as well, Booger sucks and is stupid as hell, but like the other guy in the situation is a freak stalker that's given off obsession come murder vibes with their bullshit.

Yeah, same for how people whisper in ASMR vids. I know some people find it calming or soothing or whatever but it makes my skin crawl. So many ASMR vids have the exact opposite effect that they intended for me

Ditto. And the same goes for mukbangs as well, which often cross over with ASMR.

Even the name sounds like some kinda gross sex thing. "Muck-bang".
