I've never watched any of Pewdiepie's videos, so I don't have much of an opinion on him. But based on what I've heard, I highly doubt I'd enjoy his videos anyway.
Whelp, hate to join that hate band wagon? But I will admit to absolutely despising Pewdiepie, his over-reacting, his no sense of comedy, and his greed.
I will however respect OP enough to say, you like what ya like.
I think she is in 10 of his videos or more.
She make videos about fashion and makeup. Sometimes she does videos with Felix. They are her best. Here are my three favorites:
Yeah, I don't watch her videos, it's just not my thing you know?
Not a financially stable one for sure when the Lets Play bubble gets popped from people monetizing their stuff like PewDie. Pretty sure he and folks like Toboscus are pretty much making a living from this and certainly don't have any other skills...
The thing is, no one else that I look for does it like him.
Plus his accent is so funny!
So you actually think screaming like a lobotomized child, mixed with unintelligible and unhelpful commentary, with crude, insensative rape and penis jokes is the HIGHLIGHT OF VIDEO GAME COMMENTARY AND HUMOR?

Not when you put it like that no...
One thing I just don't understand is why your so affronted or annoyed towards him.
Because he's too popular for such a crass act. And the fact he makes money off of it is frankly a bit horrifying. He's also one of the major parties involved in poisoning the concept of "Let's Play", taking it from an informative experience that explains the game, story behind it, and segments of it. Both a walk-through, critique, and a bit of a moment for someone to tell relevant jokes and to help others have the experience of playing the video game, or watching as if that person is in the commentators living room having a beer and watching them play this game.
Instead he's turned it into a theater to scream unintelligibly and maddeningly at the computer screen. He's knocked the concept down not one peg, but many. And is one of several parties to blame for lowering the bar of expectations in getting into LP that's given more people the idea to join in on it, and therefore flood the genre in horrifying commentaries, and everyone playing one of three of the same games (Minecraft, Happy Wheels, and Amnesia).
Hell, at least back in the early days even the terribad LP'ers only had terrible joke relevance and timing as well as dry voices and not preparing appropriate commentary going for them. Or a certain lack of editing to compensate for dry moments...
You can't have an argument, or even a debate without acknowledging the other side as being wrong as supported but what you know. And the arguments don't general possess weight with hyperbole, metaphor, and symbolism. PewDiePie DOES act like a labomotized brat. Like someone opened up his head and scooped out those parts of the brain that would otherwise make him stop and think about what he's saying and the weight behind it.
Thing is, not only does he constantly make jokes about male genitalia and rape, but he does so without any apparent knowledge of the gravity behind the issue. He's making rape jokes for the sake of making rape jokes without any clear direction or meaning behind it. It's almost as if he is advocating rape by how lightly he uses it. When a professional comedian makes a joke, it can be viewed as highlighting an issue and he is adding his input on an issue via satire.
PewDie is not contributing to any discussion on the topics he jokes about. What he does is little more than seeing a black man and shouting: "HEY BOYS LET'S HAVE US A BARBECUE, I GOT US SOME ROPE!" Every interaction with a character or object - barrel, pig chair, whatever - generally ends up on the wrong side of an abhorrent and insensitive jokes.
And what's frightening it wasn't until just recently he was made aware. And when he realized people were offended, he apologized rather unapologetic fashion. Like he doesn't know why he has to apologize. He just doesn't get what he is saying.
I prefer that Retsupurea gives.
Though I still need to go and purge the pain from my ears with Star. Or Dave_O.

I have no top comments.
I think the last top comment I had finally died. Or at least I'm getting no more responses to it.

Plus, it ain't a flame war until someone full out and directly calls someone a dumb-ass in argument. Which I've yet to see.

I don't actually watch her videos but she's been in at least 3 of Pewdiepie's most recent vlogs. What about her?
Lucky!
I will however respect OP enough to say, you like what ya like.

Yeah, I don't watch her videos, it's just not my thing you know?
Your pain must be tremendous.

I....detest Pewdiepie. He's the 4 words:
1.ANNOYING
2.ANNOYING
3.ANNOYING
4.ANNOYING
I wonder what a parent he would make....

I can make out of place rape and penis jokes too and scream like an idiot. Will you give me a dollar so I can prove it?
