This is textbook douchebaggery. Let's document its intracasies together. Goal: 100 douchy details.
#1 suspiciously placed guitar in the background. -dft
#2 THAT GODDAMN SHIRT! -uhoh
#3 The faux angst. -uhoh
#4 The 5 o'clock shadow. -uhoh
#5 The staring off camera. -uhoh
#6 The (fashionably functionally messy) hair. -uhoh
#7 The shallow attention whoring. -uhoh
#8 How many people paint their walls to be that dark? -kp
#9 Overly earnest for such a content free video. -kp
#10 He displays the Grip Master that he uses to build his massive guitar chops with. -dft
#11 He let's if be known that the Gripmaster is not his own, presumably because he is too cool to buy such an item himself. -dft
#12 Dramatic pauses between sentences. -MaxWilder
#13 Over serious tone. -MaxWilder
#14 Pretentious structure. -MaxWilder
#15 No content. -MaxWilder
#16: the assumption that people watch his videos for a reason. -rottenseed
#17: Insincere signoff... "I'll... see you soon..." -garmachi
#18: The shaggy hair. Not necessarily bad by itself.. but it's obviously part of the package. Especially since it's "the thing" now. -fleetze
#19 Thinks he's mastered the ironic hipster persona, thus covering up the fact that he's a shallow attention whore. He hasn't. - ridesallyridenc
#20 The satiny paint texture is pretentious as f%#k -deathcow
#21 post 90's scuzz mullets -choggie

dystopianfuturetodaysays...Example #!: Notice the guitar casually adorning the wall in the background. This sends a message of hipness and artistry. Also note that he droops his head to his left so that the instrument is visible for all to see.
uhohzombiessays...The shirt. The faux angst. The 5 o'clock shadow. The shirt. The staring off camera. The hair. The shirt. The shallow attention whoring. THAT GODDAMN SHIRT!
kronosposeidonsays...Such an earnest young douchebag.
And you just know he deliberately styles his hair to be messy like that. There's nothing "casual" about it.
Even the dark wall is douchey. How many people paint their walls to be that dark? Just douchebags.
dystopianfuturetodaysays...#10 He displays the Grip Master that he uses to build his massive guitar chops with.
dystopianfuturetodaysays...#11 He let's if be known that the Grip Master is not his own, presumably because he is too cool to buy such an item himself.
MaxWildersays...Tone, structure, and content don't match. It's like a parody of a "why did you break up with me" video. Or worse, a "why are you making me do this to you" video. Those long pauses between each sentence really freak me out.
CaptWillardsays...He probably asks "Why do you watch me?" while he's standing in front of a full length mirror and masturbating. I can see him doing the Buffalo Bill dance.
It puts the douche on the bag.
cheesemoosays...... or it gets the hose again.
Issykittysays..."...you know he's using that grip master to strengthen his masturbating hand to substitute for his lack of a girlfriend." This would be another reason, no? I found it in the youtube vid comments!
choggiesays...they live.... post 90's scuzz mullets
8756says...The maintained 2-days beard to signify his lack of consideration toward the society standards ?
spoco2says...I seriously doubt you can get to 100 without just minute differentials on the same themes. There really are only a few main ones which have all been stated. Basically, the fact that he seems to amazingly angst ridden that idiots actually watch him do anything on video, and then actually thinks that people can be stuffed making video responses to tell him why they watch him so he can inflate his somehow already inflated ego is pretty much it.
And yeah, the 'here's a gripmaster I'm using (so you know my grip is TIGHT), but it's not mine 'because these things are so lame' ' is terrible.
rottenseedsays...#16: the assumption that people watch his videos for a reason.
garmachisays...#17: Insincere signoff... "I'll... see you soon..."
No. No you won't.
fleetzesays...#18: The shaggy hair. Not necessarily bad by itself.. but it's obviously part of the package. Especially since it's "the thing" now.
deathcowsays...The satiny paint texture is pretentious as f%#k, whats wrong with high gloss white? You buy a can, you slap it on.
ridesallyridencsays...Thinks he's mastered the ironic hipster persona, thus covering up the fact that he's a shallow attention whore. He hasn't.
handmethekeysyousays...22) Glances/stares at self on screen while shooting video
23) Has provided grip master, yet again, with undesired product placement.
24) Follows "i have a question for you" with a statement. we must endure grip master's air time before returning to this.
25) The bullshit involved when he says knowing why people watch will help him "understand myself better and become more productive" He wants to understand himself so that he doesn't need to be productive. He would merely bask in his self understanding all day.
26) Gives us the profile shot.
27) He has most likely arranged things so that his profile shot is of his "good side"
28) He does not greet the audience. He just jumps right into what he wants. Would it kill you to say hello? Ask how our day was? We have feelings too you know.
We can easily make it to 100. We just need to get a little more creative. Nobody even mentioned the couch! I'll leave it to someone else, but forest green?!? Shudder. Nothing is less hip than forest green. And that couch is far too new to be pulling its weight as being "ironically not hip."
Exasperatrixsays...That creepy "I'm looking into your SOUL!!!!" stare, along with the (already mentioned) Shatneresque delivery.
antsays...Zzzzzzzzz!
E_Nygmasays...this video is way better if you pretend he's in a coffee shop
cheesemoosays...The video description on youtube:
"what if I'm gay..."
blankfistsays...speechless...
dagsays...Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)
I don't think he was expecting the answer to "why do you watch my videos?" to be "Douchebaggery Where's waldo game"
crittttersays...- He scripted this first, and
- He's going to use it as an audition tape.
(and I stopped viewing at 40 seconds.)
Farhad2000says...He sounds like a early fermenting Tom Cruise.
deathcowsays...WHY do you read my comments? I want to know. Is it that I type them naked by slapping my penis against the keys?
Zonbiesays...Why do I am reply to this douchbag? Is it because the idea of a cack handed emo munchkin crying himself to sleep with his faux angst makes me smile?
Yes. Kamera Hora!
EDDsays...#22 Doesn't blink - instead routinely shuts his eyelids for a second or so - it's way more cool that way!
#23 At 0:50 says he wants to "Understand himself" as it would make him "more productive" - productive at spawning shit like this? OR productive as in using the webcam as a mirror more (effectively)?
budzossays...I watch to see what a douchebag you are!
10061says...TRYING TOO HARD!
12499says...The fact he keeps count for all to see. Because we all obviously care so much.
Whitesays...... he's using the gripmaster on the wrong hand...
