I'd take Charlie over mister beast and his ilk any day of the week.

He's just one of the old guard. been on YouTube since he was a teen, hasn't had a major controversy and has delivered consistent relatable down-to-earth content. He might be one of the earlier pioneers of reaction content on YouTube.

The future is bleak for the youth, they're doing what they can to get through it but the pickings are slim.

Personally, I prefer long form content. I don't enjoy things like YouTube shorts and whatnot.

[–] BigPotato@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Long form is one thing, rambling and repeating things fifteen times when your point consists of one sentence is not long form.

Moby dick is about a whale and a captains obsession with killing it.

the end.

long form content is for LIBRUL SISSIES.

Yea, I honestly just check the short video summaries everytime. Why wait for 15 minutes when a minute long chadcat video tells the exact same thing

Wait until he notices that his deposit is "gone", too.

[–] Soulg@ani.social 13 points 3 weeks ago

He did this ironically. He knew it was a scam.

[–] BigDaddySlim@lemmy.world 45 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

penguinz0, Moist Critical, Charles White. Man goes by many names, but is most famous for his role in The Hunter Games Mockingjay Part 1. Sadly his scene was cut, but he was there.

Is Hunter Games the porno of Hunger Games?

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 21 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

He voices the bat guy in Dispatch, among some other YouTubers and streamers.

I think I may know them by one of the first two names, but..... They don't actually ring clear bells.... I dunno. Odd that I clearly know both that face and set, and cannot for the life of me place who it is.....

Can dementia onset at 45? /s

Maybe you know him from his Anime critiques? I feel like they used to make up more of his public appearance earlier in his career.

But this could be my subjective coloring of history because I know him from there originally.

Ah or you might remember the "this isn't a clip that's a magazine" snippet [1], that has achieved meme status. Where he essentially demonstrates his guns to a guy who was threatening him.
