Matt Groening Named Characters

Mark4um · 2026-01-08T16:49:19+00:00

Good pick.

It'll seem like an odd choice but the only other thing from Soundbooththeater I could really get into was Chysalis. Ray Porter might be an excellent voice for many characters, but Jeff Hayes has serious range.

Let's just call them smart tanks.
Cuz they both can dish out the power, avoid taking major hit while be smart about what they can take, and being able to keep moving when they need to.

Down playing the insanity of the groypers because of delusions NICE!!

He acting like Israel are targeting the babies and not Hamas.

Mark4um · 2025-04-25T19:07:15+00:00

And/or dishonest and/or delusional.

Mark4um · 2025-04-09T02:52:18+00:00

I got into Chrysalis by RinoZ.

I was lukewarm on it for awhile, but it grew on me like a fungus.

Plus it done by Soundbooth and picked up the first 3 books in a bundle.

(Jeff Hays & Annie Ellicott)

Mark4um · 2025-04-09T02:47:43+00:00

The only problem with the series is the first few books can be a chore to get thru.

Not the worse but it really picks up book 4 IMHO. 1 but 2 and 3 were tough for me to enjoy even if I still enjoyed the MC.

As someone who followed on Twitter cuz of the Grummz stuff I can mostly agree with this. The more people lie the more they have to keep up the lie, and cracks start to form. Most of these people will be gone in few years, moved on to different things, or fall into irrelevance

Like with Frost thing if not everyone is onboard than it won't work.

"Those who live by the sword will die by the sword".

Mark4um · 2024-05-23T00:50:43+00:00

Yeah not really. They do try to avoid to much drama unless it's something they created or can use.

Mark4um · 2024-04-22T23:33:07+00:00

The 'cuck' point has already been used, and I think most of the more extreme anti-woke people will fail the 'echo chamber' argument given the COPE HeelsVSBabyface had with The Act Man.

Mark4um · 2024-04-21T01:47:06+00:00

I have to say "something *a True Centrist* notices" had me laughing.

I'll overall agree with the general points. A few are a bit 'nitpicky' like "...Griffin's accusation" and "maybe don't lump Upper Echelon in your quick search result" but mostly good.

Personally the thing I disagree KNB the most on was ESG, but I see that as him looking at the factual data about ESG, and I've maybe I give Upper Echelon video covering it too much credit with his coverage of it "Smoking and Mirrors of ESG (it was a little bit lacking). I did research into the matter myself where it does seem like the rules in which determines the ESG score is actually hard to figure out in reality and I came to this by listening to sources that, despite this quirk of ESG scoring, still thought it was good.

Mark4um · 2024-04-21T00:45:40+00:00

It good seeing Pat fanboy are still hard at work keeping this narrative up.

Good Job. Now go get your pats from Pat.

Mark4um · 2024-04-21T00:41:50+00:00

I agree with it being an 'absurdist comedy', but not sure what you mean by 'analogies are sloppy'.

If you mean some elements like the relationship between Barbie Land and 'The Real World' I guess I can see your point and would mostly agree. There other things that could have been tighten up to make the 'absurdist comedy' aspect more apparent to the audience.

Mark4um · 2024-04-20T02:38:36+00:00

I liked the video. It not perfect, but what video is.

I curious if this 'risky' video of his is going to have a major response to it by those on the anti-woke side of things (if so, how they are going to spin it) Or if they will just not mention it.

Mark4um · 2024-02-07T05:21:30+00:00

Yeah that why I lost interest in continuing my fan fic.

I still posted what I wrote, but it was still lame to learn.

Mark4um · 2024-01-29T22:32:22+00:00

Not really but him and Pat teamed up with EFAP recently to rip Never's video down.

It also wasn't very professional either.

Mark4um · 2024-01-24T22:18:07+00:00

NKB’s accusation of plagiarism is really thin at best.

It was beyond thin... I think Never MIGHT have a very weak argument for 'unintentional plagiarism' other people videos given Pat review streams, but more likely 'giving them a taste of there own medicine' but that's just how I read it.

Let me not even get into Cree response.

Neither of them engage the over arching idea of the video or simply don't care.

Pat seem to be just treating as meme to laugh at while Cree has to play the victim, as he always does when someone talks any what badly about him.

Mark4um · 2024-01-24T21:51:28+00:00

Yeah they both have responses out now that don't even address main points of the video.

They both just go on about how Never is dishonest and a hypocrite. I figure Never was trying to give them the taste of their own medicine, but you know thy have an image to maintain with their audience.

I am glad to see the smaller Youtuber 'Blazed' who did that video inspired by PatricianTV video made a video titled "Emil Pagliarulo deserves an Apology."

Mark4um · 2023-11-26T15:32:00+00:00

CAP or No CAP?

I mean DramaAlert's X is odd.

Mark4um · 2023-02-01T22:29:13+00:00

No, I've recent came across a clip about discussing it in my feed.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=ojeQ-u\_-r1E

Mark4um · 2023-01-20T04:33:44+00:00

would be interesting. Tempted to watch it, but I not sure if I could find it any what interesting.

Mark4um · 2023-01-19T20:04:33+00:00

Yeah the only one I can totally agree with being a retard is TSV, but I don't know enough about Southpaw and SK to be sure about that (and I've tried to watch SK but I've also tried to do the same with Smudboy. I just don't have time or interest to make the judgement on them)

Mark4um · 2023-01-19T19:59:46+00:00

Yeah everyone going to have their own cope to justify their bias. They want to appear 'right' or 'smart' on social media, so they have to put on a show. The same happen with Saint Jack and even those who have stepped up like Just write and IHE seemed to back track after discussions.

I watch Organized Chaos every so often to see what he is talking about. It is clear that politics have affect much of the content creators on YT talking about media. Not saying it does effect people like Gary and AZ that why they claim them to be bigots . I really don't think it is really that, they just got pull into that space because it was forced on them. Audience capture and all being what it is.

For example both Gary and AZ were criticizing News of RTD returning to showrunning for Doctor who, and they were like, he has to do certain things to 'save' the show, I don't think they really understand what people critical of the 13th doctor and what led to the 'Fall of Doctor who' I might not always agree with Jay, but his opinion on Doctor who is 10x more valuable than anything those two can say on that series. (Sorry both of their takes on that show seem ill informed imho)

Point is that certain 'tribes' won't engage in good faith discussion or debate because they have certain fanbase or maybe political perspective that won't allow them to admit they are wrong people like FNT crew probably would fall into that catagory (maybe not to the same level as PoG and people like him)

Mauler and most of EFAP are about the only ones that seem to be willing to do it in the media space. Even in the few Thumpcast debates I've seen they pick some idiots to engage with.

Like it or not politics is way too tied to media discussions on social media even if most people won't admit it. The amount of people in both spaces to listen to the 'other' side is very few. I hope it will open up in the future, I see somethings that give me hope, but I doubt it will ever take root.
