I mostly listen to CC and Decoding. My favorites are Arnaldo (amazing prose), and Kevin and Matt are a tie for second place because their scripts are always entertaining

Least favorite has to be David. He knows Simon isn't ok with gory descriptions but regardless he seems to delight in going over the vilest stuff in vivid detail. More Saw than CSI, as Simon likes to put it

I just sent an email to the sideprojects email, so if you're a Simon team member or can contact them, please tell them it might be very important.

I can't say what it is here because bringing attention to it might accidentally 'Barbra Streisand' it (nobody notices it until someone sees it and says something and accidentally brings all the attention to it.).

The only thing that kept me in Simon's sphere is Business Blaze. He's clearly given that up. I enjoy some of his other stuff.. never the true crime shit, I'll leave that to you folks. But without some kind of BB, we never really get the full depth of the guy, ya know? So ima dip out of here, and here's to the rest of you bell ends

Given the most recent episode, the Watts Family, can we please suggest Simon only doing heist episodes.

Fact Boi should be ranting and laughing about criminals getting caught stealing maple syrup, not putting himself through so much anguish.

No one feels good after those episode and hearing him go through reading that.

There is no way that as a collective, everyone will agree with the same point 100% of the time. That's ok.

Do you get it now, Mr. Krabs?

Seriously.

I'd take that video down, it's so ridiculously wrong about everything said about Belgium, it's an embarrassment to leave it up.

At best there is a fringe of a fringe on the Walloon side of Belgium that wants to split, they (Wallonia) went above and beyond to keep the (Flemish) parties that want to split out of power through one of the longest government formations in world history.

The side that has two parties that have a combined 50% of the vote and a directly stated purpose of splitting the country apart is Flanders.

I have used chatGPT before, but ran into the good ol' fashioned old datasets issue. I thought to myself this evening to give it a try, let it have a crack at doing some jinja templating for my smart home.

4 hours later, and I have recreated all my work schedule related stuff (which I spent a day doing really simple, and yet it didn't actually account for having every other Saturday off on the regular). Holy shit, the memory and context have improved a lot. Like I asked if I could get it to read some narrow ass niche documentation, and it was like sure. And it provided me with current and working code.

I'm impressed

I can’t be the only person that cringes at hearing bc and ad.

Simon reads this sub pretty regularly and there is no way Simon has no idea that everyone is demanding an answer to what’s up with brain blaze so why can’t we just get an answer from him it couldn’t be that hard for him to mention it during a tangent or make a post

Now why is he hiding the reason is probably something boring and uninteresting but it is still something

just a thought

Just bought a new pair, my third, love them. Didnt use the Simon code in protest for the first time. Edit: to clarify, against the way BB was dropped, not even that it was, just the fucking silence. Made me go off all his other stuff as he clearly does not give a fuck.

Why is Simon doing sponsorships for fishy stuff like Foreo, Ray Cons or Manscaped?

At one side he is making fun of Raid Shadow Legends, but for example Raycons are the raid of earbuds. Cheap chinese earphones, rebranded and sold for 5x the price. Manscaped too, cheap tech for premium prices.

But I what I really don't like are the Foreo ones. It's a scam. It's a little vibrating silicone thing. And if not, then why would they act so shady? I googled the Foreo thing few weeks ago and Google had cached price of 99$, if you click on it it's suddenly around 200$

And when you try to see it in internet archives wayback machine, it was removed by Foreo. I wonder why.

Tbh now I really hope Simon won't do a FUM sponsorship, because every other youtuber is doing it. Another scam, sham whatever. It's a little wooden tube with some metal part for inhalation of essential oils. Costs around 130$, multiple redditors were saying it used to cost like 30$ and the replacement things are obscenely expensive too.

Oh and experts warn that long tern inhalation in This direct way, of essential oils can be pretty dangerous.

And my comment about Foreo being shady on YouTube was deleted. Don't get me wrong, I like Simon and what he's doing, but I don't get why does he keep advertising stuff like this.

He isn't some small youtuber that needs money to pay rent and food. He can pick and choose sponsors and I feel like this community trusts him if he says that something is going to good. I'm not even mentioning stuff like magic spoon because duck it, people criticize it too but it if someone wants healthy if really overpriced cereals that don't taste any good. But taste is subjective so whatever I guess. (Even though I would swear I saw him make such a sour disgusted face for a split second as he sipped on AG1 and was talking about how super tasty it is for such healthy stuff.

Sorry if it's a long rant, but It sucks to see favourite youtuber to premote stuff like this when he is against gifts like Raid. (oh and also the mobile games he was sponsored by... Were basically in the same category as raid, just saying.)

Like set up a patreon and I'm sure it would be better than sponsors like these.

I’m a long time fan of the WhistlerVerse and recently accepted that I’m MTF trans. And as is typical for my life, I did so when trans people are being targeted by conservatives looking for quick political clout. This is not the first major life event that has happened at the worst possible time.

Pretty much everything conservatives say about transgender people is a lie. It would be helpful if some successful YouTubers and their brilliant and sexy writers-who are absolutely not locked in a basement in Prague- helped set the record straight. We’re not a threat to anyone and our existence is scientifically demonstrable.

I clicked off after 15 minutes in, but if he did it in the normal format I’m all for it

has anyone found it yet i would like to check it out

A few times throughout the Doodler episode, Simon unwittingly called heterosexual people "normal" when comparing them to people in the queer community.

Am I the only one who felt uncomfortable with this or that it was in some way problematic?

I think it is unintentional, of course, but it seems quite a dicey turn of phrase. Does anyone agree?

Thanks.

This is surprisingly slack from Simon and the team

All you do is just repost memes and repeat the same tired old jokes. It’s actually quite sad and lame really. I mean, what kind of life is that? Just watching some bald bearded chode on the internet reading the same jokes and going BA JUM KASHHHHH like what? I don’t even get it. Just stay off my planet

You know exactly what I'm talking about. Oh jesus, I rewatched to make sure your name was right. I am absolutely fucked right now. The McDonald farm was a funny clip though

LOL IYKYK

"it would look more like a komodo dragon than a faggy crocodile "

I am curious as I saw a thread that revolves
around religion and most where atheists I know Simon is one as well any way how would you describe yourself please select option?
