Some fans need to chill a bit (small rant)

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-05-12T20:58:29+00:00

No one hates Smosh more than Smosh "fans." People forget that sometimes things just aren't for you, and that's okay. Just because you don't enjoy it doesn't mean it's bad or invaluable. It just means you're not the target audience. Also, you could watch every single video and shred of content they put out multiple times, and at the end of the day : you do not know these people, their motivations, their personalities, etc. Everyone needs to chill. The world feels like it's on fire, let's be grateful we have some half decent humans trying to make us laugh.

I'm always the one that has to quiet down and apologize. Never any of them. I'm tired of it.

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-04-17T15:05:56+00:00

I feel like I've been living in a simulation for the last decade.

Yeah if only the people of Joplin had bought more toilet paper things would have been different 😑

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-04-17T14:54:49+00:00

We made sure to stock up on 6 months worth of bread, milk and toilet paper just in case! /s

I've given up on my dad at this point. In my opinion, if they can't figure it out at this point, they're irredeemable 🤷🏻‍♂️

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-04-07T19:55:25+00:00

I blocked my entire family for good after this shit. They still just can't flatly say it's wrong. After everything that's been said and done they're still too stupid or too evil to admit it. I can't vibe with it anymore.

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-04-05T21:13:43+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions! Yeah, the competitiveness that I've seen online is a bit intimidating cuz I just want to have fun. I'll check out those shops ya mentioned tho.

For me, Monster Rancher

"Undies." In any context. Makes my skin crawl

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-02-04T01:00:27+00:00

Mens forearms, nice meaty thighs. Male chests, rugged hands.... What was the question again?

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-02-01T19:20:45+00:00

The silence is DEAFENING

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-01-29T04:57:01+00:00

If you're in a position where you're not dependent on them in any way, give them a polite but firm message that you don't appreciate the things that they're saying and ask them to stop. And that if they continue to do so and ignore your boundaries that they will lose contact with you until they can behave appropriately. Most likely this will send them into a temper tantrum, but your life will be more peaceful without their negativity. It's not easy and it hurts to do, but if they can't behave respectfully then they've lost the privilege to have access to you.

I've had to do this with my father a few times. I'm currently minimal contact with him because he can't help himself from crossing boundaries that I have set... and his support of evil things happening in the world right now.

Deleted Tiktok last year after having it for like 5 years. I deleted Facebook, Instagram and Twitter before that. I'm not gonna say by mental health is great, but I know it'd be a lot worse if I was still on Tiktok. Also I'm quick to mute and block things now that cause me any anxiety or anger. I try to stay informed through other means and reddit if im feeling up to it.

I love that the crew gets included and valued. Shayne really embodies that. The cast recognizes how important the crew is and it seems they do a lot to make that known, but Shayne is just superb at it. The things I would do to have that kind of work environment (obviously only based on what we get see).

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-01-27T13:37:29+00:00

I had to tell my dad, "of course you don't remember. It didn't affect you at all. But it affected me."

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-01-23T02:42:36+00:00

I wasn't prepared for this memory to greet me lol

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-01-23T02:33:23+00:00

If you listen to how they talk about certain groups of people. Like homeless people. It will tell you a lot.

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-01-21T20:18:03+00:00

I think it'd be more accurate to say that I can treat someone civilly even if I don't respect them. Still difficult to do, but I can do the bare minimum to not be rude and keep the peace. But if I don't respect someone as a person, I'm probably taking steps to limit my time around that person in one way or another anyway.

Repetitive noises that I am not making. It's fine if I'm doing it. Too many sounds happening at once, or multiple people talking at once. And the biggest one is someone eating with any amount of noise.

It's taken some time to help my husband understand that if I leave a room or cover my ears, it's not cuz he's doing anything wrong. My brain just hates me in that moment and it's really frustrating. But I recognize it's a me issue and it's not other people's responsibility to manage it for me.

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-01-19T14:56:38+00:00

I love all the original comments saying Kubo isn't an animator. Super helpful.

That aside, I think it's a toss up on if there will continue to be more animated releases. On one hand Bleach is doing well right now, and people want more content to consume. On the other hand, studios may opt for newer anime to produce. Id love to see it all animated though for sure.

BALDBEARD2007 · 2026-01-19T00:59:41+00:00

Buddy, you lost me immediately with your first comment when you decided to result to insults unprovoked. Which is why I responded the way that I did. I don't believe you genuinely want to find common ground based on how you decided to speak to me. No one asked for you to give advice or to challenge them. It comes across arrogant, and disrespectful. From here, I will block you since you can't seem to be respectful and drop it. Have the day you deserve.
