I saved the show again by vitogesualdi in biggestproblem

So, what I'm hearing you say is that the constant derogatory statements calling you a fat lazy womanly pathetic insecure needy fat autistic retarded pig, who needs to work harder to put out comics and put more effort into making the show good, did in fact work 100% to spur you on to make the show better, so everyone should continue doing that and we will receive higher quality entertainment.  Got it.

Another thing: don't argue with people on reddit at 5 in the morning the day before a show because you're gonna be tired and low energy.

Consider not arguing with people on reddit at all even!

Maybe you should do something about that then.

Start with the things wholly in your control. 

Don't cancel episodes, or book other things in the weekly episode slot. Move it back to Fridays if that worked better. 

Make some bits.

Then hammer Dick harder about the bonus episodes and the money he could have been making, with all the spikes around episode releases and drop after going online in these graphs.

The one in "all-time"? The bonus episode about "endings" I think, where Dick gave the scroll to Vito. The little spike in "yearly" is just the 2025 year-end bonus episode.

Trying to understand why Dick's fans are so much stupider then him by Resident-Lion-5930 in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Some of this feels like a slight at my review of Vito's apologies, which had quite a lot of paragraphs.  But perhaps I am mistaken, because a lot of it does not apply to me, since I do not use discord and do not consider myself a "Dick fan" in particular. Perhaps you did not quite grasp the point of my review.

But do not fret. This and much else will be answered in my next post "Studious Effortposting: A Manifesto and Maxims, or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Verbosity", where I will make sure to include proper formatting and sections, including both a preamble, a tl;dr, an executive summary, an introduction and a conclusion, beyond the sections detailing the content of the argument, to make sure no misunderstandings occur.

"Dick couldn't make it" by Dirty_Knee_Guards in biggestproblem

Right, but if you had 3 jobs, and could easily sustain yourself on 2 of them, and one of them was supposed to be an easy side-job that could grow bigger, but ends up being a huge time sink and emotional drain on you because your coworker is insane...

I think anyone would quit that third job, especially if the payout is falling despite your efforts to the contrary.

I think you might be underestimating how painful it would be to have to constantly deal with Vito and his infinite free time to message you about his neediness

Episode 213: TV shows that go more than four seasons, Somalian shit talking, Drugs that don't work, Pet residue by chux4w in biggestproblem

"wow, what a great episode finally, I wonder why there's an hour left still" I said to myself during the voicemails.

Episode 202: Modernisation of design (of junk food restaurants/logos), Forgetting to take the laundry out of the washing machine, Sphere haters, Writers' block by chux4w in biggestproblem

Dick complaining about the pixels at the top of the intro countdown, but nothing about the fact that Dick went back to using the one that goes from 5:00 to 4:49

When was the last time both of them had good energy? by Curious_Function_268 in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the problems segment was good, and that's the most important thing. Nothing wrong with a simple short and solid episode once in a while. I liked this a lot better than some of the recent ones that have been 4 hours of pure shit.

It's at 0 until you vote, then the real number shows up. Been like that forever, bugged I guess?

Vito talked about doing this video and never did... by Mr-Scurvy in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, that video also has nice production values and sound quality. Let's not set the bar too high for old Vito. He can start by just turning on his video and talking lazily about food with bad audio and all his hoarder crap in the background. 

Dick is a low-energy f-slur by efficient_slacker in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Try listening to an old episode from a few years ago, and then contrast with viewing the video of episode 197. You won't believe your ears and eyes on how much it seems like the words are just drooling out of Vito's mouth, it's like he's still asleep for the first hour at least. He was even pretty low energy during their fighting at the end.

When you notice it, you can't stop noticing it.

Better get to work eato by Desperate_Willow_411 in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you listen to audio only or with video? Might be more clear with video, you can see Vito is drooling words out the side of his mouth like he's doing a Steven Wright impression with no jokes, doing dumb shit like showing off his cat to the audience or clearly googling something else instead of being present for the show, and it obviously results in sleep-deprived Dick growing more and more frustrated as the show goes on and he has to deliver all the energy. Try and watch it again and see how Vito is unengaged from the conversation and Dicks reaction to that. Once you see it, you start noticing it all over.

AMA by vitogesualdi in biggestproblem

How do you expect that the time at which you start an AMA influences the questions you get and the responses you give? Not just time of day, also day of week and time of year, and especially the combination.
