2024-10-31 04:02:36 +0000 UTCThey will never come to South Africa (much like Brazil) but if they ever did and I saw them, I would rather physically shit my pants on the spot than go up to them and say hi now. Also Aiden is the only one with an ounce of fucking logic in this debate, everybody else is smoking absolute penis and weed
JustQ
2024-10-17 17:56:32 +0000 UTCAiden is just straight up right.

2024-10-03 18:16:34 +0000 UTCThis episode really proved that everyone but Aiden has brain worms when it comes to socially interacting and think that it’s deeper than what it actually is

2024-09-13 13:41:13 +0000 UTCCopy pasting what I replied to another user because I'm hyped after that restaurant bit. --- yo, I coincidentally looked at the subreddit today in search of DnD updates and you'll be pleased to know that Aimen has mentioned they recorded 3 episodes already... and that they were recording 3 more by the end of this week or so! He mentioned they needed a headstart of 6 episodes to launch. WE ARE CLOSE :)

2024-09-09 00:43:33 +0000 UTCthey played halo matchmaking on mcc?? they might’ve been playing with hackers, i know that mcc multiplayer has a hacking problem for a long while, at least they didn’t get banned via hacking

2024-09-07 10:22:07 +0000 UTCAiden smoked Ludwig in the debate despite Ludwig doing his best to logicman him
Jacob
2024-09-06 23:53:13 +0000 UTCIt’s funny they talked about meeting famous people for most of the episode. I was listening to this otw to work. The job I was doing was taking down a billboard music award set. So when I got there I was walking past people like Playboi Cart, Offset, Joey Badass and others. Did not know what the event was till I got there so wasn’t expecting that at all. Did not say Hi to anyone tho
dylan boyle
2024-09-06 04:06:25 +0000 UTCasking "are you x?" simply sets the dynamic for the interaction. If someone approaches you saying "ludwig?" you have 0 clue if that person is a fan, someone you met earlier, an old friend, etc. "are you?" isn't a tell that the person is a pokemon card collector, it simply is the default polite way of engaging the person they think they recognize. Believing that this person must not be that big a fan if they had to ask feels like a cynical tag you're adding onto the interaction out of having been approached so much in the past. Aimen is definitely right here.

2024-09-04 16:54:58 +0000 UTCAiden is just correct for the famous person introduction thing. There's nothing wrong with starting off with the "Are you" is fine

2024-09-04 15:18:32 +0000 UTCHere I was defending Aiden for two whole comments before realizing he really kept the debate going a lil longer then needed. All that said, shoulda just kept watching very decisive and respectful discussion y'all, proud of your characters

Andrew Uddin
2024-09-03 01:36:06 +0000 UTCSomeone ask Archie if he drove the bouncing animation section by linking the audio to the position attribute, or if it was done manually?
Ryan Megaffin
2024-09-02 19:25:13 +0000 UTCi agree with this, mostly because i feel like people do "hey, are you ___?" as an intro in all sorts of situations that don't involve celebrities

jacob beaudway
2024-09-02 05:46:42 +0000 UTCI’m sorry but arguing for brevity over 2 single syllable words just doesn’t make sense to me. The only thing I can see is that saying “Are you X?” can be cynically viewed as a way of siphoning information, where as just “X?” is almost always to get the attention of the person. It also seems like Aiden is looking at it as covering his bases incase he is wrong, where the rest of the boys see it from the perspective of the famous guy, when in reality none of them are the type of person they complain about, who in Nicks shoes would have committed to talking to Not Kyle Mooney. Even Aiden has talked about not talking to Karl Urban because he forgot his name, so they very clearly aren’t collector-types

maurivalentine
2024-09-01 18:59:47 +0000 UTCLol I'm hoping that is a compliment and also no, I just don't want to say such huge sweeping statements on peoples personalities without making it as clear as possible that I am giving it a lot of thought!

2024-09-01 05:52:03 +0000 UTCIt’s crazy that ConnorEatsPants got Joe Exotic on Fortnite Friday before these chucklefucks gave him the respect he deserves and put him on the pod
Zach Orvis
2024-08-31 22:05:34 +0000 UTCAll of this is my perception of the lads, not a psychoanalysis. I am certain I am wrong on a lot of what I said but this is the perception I have of them for the moment.
Iain Davis
2024-08-31 18:55:21 +0000 UTCSlime - Slime is the worst one and honestly a bit sad. I get that to some degree its a character but it still feels like he legitimately doesn't want to be just a Pokémon which I really respect but in order to protect himself against it he needs to block people out from being people. I would find being treated like that really shitty and ultimately I would just not say anything to him. This is the part that really sucks because Slime is the person I think I would love to sit down and just listen to talk about his life and interests for as long as he wanted to talk about them 1-1. Anthony has I imagine has so much more depth to his personality than he puts out with the Slime character that its kinda sad that I would rather skip out on it than have a mediocre photo.
Iain Davis
2024-08-31 18:54:17 +0000 UTCLudwig - Lug is harder because I think there isn't much I could speak to him about that I think he would enjoy sharing. I think his job is to share his life so I think his value is me letting him know just how much I appreciate his attempt to just make the online space better and more friendly for everyone and showing the world that he treats his employees like people not names. I'd also mention that I appreciate the larger events he puts on.

Bradley Newman
2024-08-31 18:48:11 +0000 UTCNick - Nick is an interesting dude to me and I'd ask him about how he his perception of his past self who was really good at most things has changed now that he is surrounded by people who are all great at niche things but not necessarily as broadly decent at thing as him. I'd also ask him about film because I know basically fuck-all about film but someone passion about it telling me their POV is always great to listen to.
Iain Davis
2024-08-31 18:46:46 +0000 UTCAiden - As someone who lives in Cape Town South Africa, Aiden's genuine love for humans made me want to reach out and let him know that if he ever comes down and needed a place to crash or really just any advice I would love help. Ultimately I didn't because I think he'd find a far more interesting crowd that isn't a 30 year old dad. Point is if I met Aiden I would tell him what I appreciate about the stuff I have watched him in and ask him about things I feel are unique to him like the balance of non-smash friends, smash friends and more famous friends. As with anyone though I would make sure to give them an out if they didn't want to have an extended conversation.
Iain Davis
2024-08-31 18:44:19 +0000 UTCI would have a totally different approach to every one of the guys here. I would want to make sure they all feel like I gave a shit if meeting them and the same goes for any other famous person I would like to meet.
Iain Davis
2024-08-31 18:39:06 +0000 UTCI feel like the boys didn't really give the fans of anyone a fair enough level of respect when discussing meeting people. The reality is when I am meeting a famous person I always think "What do they take away from this that makes them worth stopping and talking to me." I know not everyone thinks this way but in my idealistic 30 year old millennial BS world view, if everyone approached it like this then everyone just gets mutually respected and those interactions that are just Pokémon cards never happen.
Iain Davis
2024-08-31 18:37:33 +0000 UTCI had no idea Grok was AI this whole time until Nick mentioned the 18 fingers thing. I’m so out of the loop.

2024-08-31 08:33:25 +0000 UTCAlright, get Slime an interview show where they keep getting increasingly more famous people on, without telling him who they are, and see how famous they can get before he doesn't open with "who are you?"

2024-08-30 22:44:19 +0000 UTCComing from the third side of the “are you…?” argument, as someone who is told that they look like a few celebrities from time to time, I get both sides of this to a certain extent. Ludwig arguing under the pretext of a follow up, with telling Kirsten Dunst that he and Squeex watch Virgin Suicide every year, is fuckin hilarious to me tho 😭

Chris Coronel
2024-08-30 15:57:39 +0000 UTCI’m on Aimen’s side, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with confirming an identity of a famous person to introduce yourself to them. Lud’s argument felt very “don’t you know who I am” energy

Jadenity
2024-08-30 13:08:10 +0000 UTCaiden is just so right people are saying "are you" to try to just minimize the awkwardness of an interaction like that, people who say "are you" aren't some sort of evil people who are just in it for clout
Cross Road
2024-08-30 12:44:41 +0000 UTCYeah you're 100% valid to crash out on someone when what they're saying is unhinged. Also to preface it, Slime had just told him "You're broken in the head" for saying that you can easily navigate out of an "Are you X?", "No I'm not" kind of interaction. I felt like I was taking crazy pills here. It is such a tiny deal if you say "Are you X?" and the person isn't. So easy to navigate that, I don't understand.
Andy Hackett
2024-08-30 12:39:14 +0000 UTCI feel like Aiden would be the most excited to have the interaction. None of them seem like they wouldn't appreciate being told you like their work though.
Andy Hackett
2024-08-30 12:37:43 +0000 UTCNah dude in my mind Aiden is almost always on the money in these arguments, except for the matcha donut/cronut argument, that was wild of him, won't lie.
Andy Hackett
2024-08-30 12:35:10 +0000 UTCThat's the way to do it.
Andy Hackett
2024-08-30 12:32:31 +0000 UTCYeah it is a bit out of touch, but it's probably difficult not to become a bit out of touch when you become a bit famous. I do agree with the idea of respecting their time and only saying something you think is for their benefit. I even think asking for a picture would be too much because it's a bit too self-serving. I'd just be like "Are you X? Oh cool, I love your work, have a good day dude." If there was some particular album or movie or show I loved them in, I'd mention that too. But yeah expecting this specific verbage for figuring out if they are that person is kinda corny. Not everyone's brain or memory works the same anyway. Some people have difficulty remembering faces, whatever. As you said, it's not that deep, say whatever to make the introduction as long as you're not rude. Besides, if they are not actually that person, I don't see why they're saying it's awkward, you can 100% turn that into a funny interaction with the right response, and then just peace out.
Andy Hackett
2024-08-30 12:28:26 +0000 UTCWatching the yard while doing my eyeliner adds +10 difficulty, almost ruined it laughing at slimes lud dream
Amelia Geneva
2024-08-30 11:19:13 +0000 UTCThe asking celebs bit was probably the most out of touch the yard has ever been. The reality is that no one, and I mean NO ONE, is thinking this far into it. The "are you" is just this subconscious way of speaking for most people. Means no more, or no less. Are you Ludwig? Yep. Cool good to meet you, pic/whatever, convo done.
Antonio Guerrero
2024-08-30 08:31:21 +0000 UTChow can ludwig go from saying fan interactions can feel like getting the pokemon card then say coming up just for a pic is fine. Like ????
Kaleb DeMuth
2024-08-30 08:09:49 +0000 UTCreally wild that slime had a dream about getting in a car accident with ludwig in it and then a few days later ludwig gets in an accident
