Revisiting The Channel Awesome Document - PART 8 - The JewWario Conspiracy

Nettles did another great Change the Channel video.  

Once the JewWario material was released, the Change the Channel movement essentially fell apart.  It made most of the complainants look bad, as they seemed to want to cover up the SA issues.  They wanted to get the document out there and ignore the elephant in the room, JewWario.  

Given some of the major pushers of Change the Channel, it feels like it grew out of the resentment of Channel Awesome not taking a stand on GamerGate.  Some of the former talent that had more SJW vibes wanted to get back at CA.  They knew that the JewWario thing would derail their attempt at canceling CA.  They were right.  People no longer cared about getting food and coffee breaks. Someone that they claimed was their friend was outed as a sex pest, and it needed to be discussed more than To Boldly Flee.  

It is very interesting that no one talks about JewWario and that SA claim.  

Ron Jeremy: The Most Disgusting Man In Porn

Ah, the hedgehog himself.  Ron Jermery is and was a gross man.  He is ugly, yet he has had more women than I will ever have in my entire life, for good or bad.  When you were younger, you’d probably look up to him.  In the 70s and 80s, he had everything.  Today, he is a babbling fool sitting in a room drooling on himself. He will always have those sexual assault charges hovering over his fat and sweaty head.  Oh, have the mighty fallen.  

Ron has been in more mainstream movies and games than any pornstar.  One of my favorite stories about Ron Jeremy is the story about him being in Crank 2.  The directors did not want to cast Jeremy because they felt it was too cliché to have him in their movie.  Ron heard about the casting of all the actors from the adult industry.  They did not hire him, but he showed up to set thinking they forgot to call him.  What an ego. 

DIRECTOR ROB REINER AND WIFE FOUND DEAD

This death is a total shock, yet it really isn’t a shock.  When a person relapses in your home, it can be a dangerous time for you and your family.  Addicts lash out, and they lash out hard.  I’ve seen this my whole life in my family.  

His drug-addicted son murdered Rob Reiner.  More and more information is coming out each day about the murders. 

While Rob was a boomer, he meant so much to my generation.  The Princess Bride and Stand By Me are two of the best movies for Gen Xers.  We all grew up on these two movies directed by Reiner.  I still remember that scene from Misery in the bed. 

Ghosts of Mississippi is an intense movie that I rewatched recently.  Keep in mind that Gene Hackman, who died at his home as well, starred in Ghosts of Mississippi.  Rob was able to get out of Gene Hackman’s way and let him become an interesting character in that movie.  

I will never connect or get When Harry Met Sally…, but Stand By Me is a very important part of my life.  And it introduced me to Wil Weaton, for good and bad.  Words can’t express how cool and creepy this movie was to me.  I still get chills from the train bridge scene.  

Every kid in the '80s loved The Princess Bride.  Enough said.  

I will probably get into more of his relationship with his son in another post. 

Testing North Korea's illegal smartphones

I just got a new smartphone a few weeks back.  I had to turn off the censorship of curse words on the text messages.  These North Korean phones take the censorship to a new level.  I suppose these phones are from 2020, and they are restrictive.  I also like that you can not type in South Korea into the phone without it autocorrecting it to “puppet state”.  

Anyway, check out the video. 

To Boldly Flee: The Most Movie | Red Cow Arcade

These Red Cow guys do discuss the Spoony issue.  Spoony, while arrogant, was a talented fellow.  However, the personal demons he faced were too much.  He started to rage and doom tweet all day and night about Trump and not fulfilling his duties as a content creature.  He felt Tweeting was more important than his work, house, and girlfriend.  He sat in an empty house, refusing to do anything.  

The entire Channel Awesome group seems entitled to me now, and went after Doug when it wasn’t profitable for them.  The Red Cow guys also mention that Lupa spearheaded this failed attempt to cancel Channel Awesome.  Linsey was also involved in pushing this attack, too.  

I loved To Bolgly Free for its time.  It was an interesting endeavor.  It isn't something I could have done. 

Star Trek VoyagerJennifer Lien: What really happened? Part 2 of 2

She would later voice Agent L in the outstanding MIB cartoon series.  This show received a lot of praise for its writing and animation.  Interestingly enough, she would leave that series before the final season.  They replaced her with another Jennifer, Jennifer Martin.  Unlike Trek, I can’t get a firm answer as to why she left that series.  Did she have another meltdown? 

She completely left acting in 2001.  

However, things haven’t ended up well for the former Trek actress after she left.  She got married and moved to Tennessee.  She married writer/indie filmmaker Hwang Phil-Seon.  They have one adult offspring.  I can not find much on Hwang.  He’s done a lot of indies and underground film work.  

She has exposed herself to children, refusing to put her clothes back on.  They had to summon a female officer to force Lien to put on some clothes and arrest her.  I really don’t like the exposure charges because they involve minors.  Jennifer, don’t do shit like that.  She also got arrested for fleeing police and another for domestic violence.  

In another universe, Lien took the offer for help from Jeri Taylor and stayed on Voyager.  She got better and moved on to more creative projects, even directing.  The road not taken…

Star Trek VoyagerJennifer Lien: What really happened? Part 1 of 2

For years, the cast and crew of Star Trek Voyager would never fully disclose the sudden departure of Jennifer Lien.  Whenever some would bring it up to the cast, they’d get uncomfortable, It would later add fuel to a major feud between Kate Mulgrew and Jeri Ryan.  Things got so intense that most of the cast didn't want to be around when Ryan and Mulgrew shared a scene. That is for another story.

I used to find Jennifer Lien attractive.  She is only a few years older than me. Lien played the interesting Kes character.  After the third season, Lien left the show, or was fired.  ST fans heard conflicting reports about her departure.  The most famous and false one was that “The writers never had a grasp on her character”.  After years of this story, we now know that was a lie.  Screen 

From Screen Rant, She began to become distracted, inattentive, there was just something off. I asked her to come into my office and probed gently to see if there was something going on in her life, something I could help her with, and she simply wouldn’t speak at all. This is what happened to everyone who tried to reach out and help her, including her agent. To this day, I don’t think anyone knows what’s going on, but clearly, there was something emotionally upset about her. She would not open up about it, she would not consider getting help about it, but clearly, it was more powerful than she was

I don’t agree with everything Jeri Taylor did on VOY, but she went out of her way to keep Lien on the show.  Truth be told, Wang, Harry Kim, was supposed to get the axe.  He was also misbehaving, but not to the extent Lien was.  Taylor tried to get her help, but she refused.  Lien and Trek parted ways.  Given all the issues I had over the years, this new information would have answered a few questions about her future misdeeds.  I think they would have kept Kes on the crew, but she had too many personal demons. 

I know that the cast was very close, and they felt hurt by her departure.  It seems they have kept this news close to the vest.  I am glad Jeri Taylor finally revealed this side of the story.  Jeri Taylor would pass away earlier this year, and it would have been kept a secret. 

For me, addiction issues need to be dealt with.  Lien seemed to not want to face it.

Little Shop of Horrors - Uh, the motorcycle flies. Did no one catch this?

Whenever I talk about Little Shop of Horrors, I have three scenes I talk about.  I mention the context behind the Bill Murray cameo, the original ending to the movie, and the flying motorcycle scene.  

I remember watching this movie with my good friend on VHS.  We were watching it, and the scene above happened.  Steve Martin’s character is heard laughing.  Out of nowhere, no context given, his motorcycle flies onto the screen and safely lands near Seymore.  Seymour looks shocked, even looking down at the bike, amazed.  After that, no one mentions or reacts to it.  

My friend and I freaked out and drowned in laughter.  

“Did that motorcycle just fly?” 

“Rewind.” 

For about three minutes, we just kept rewatching that scene.  

Not too many people talk about that random occurrence.  Luckily, other people have noticed this scene.  Red Letter Media mentioned it in their review.  For a long time, I tried to find the scene on YouTube, but here it goes.

Yes, the motorcycle flies and lands. They were trying to imply that the dentist is so high on gas that he flies.  Anyway, I always love this moment.  

What happened to Phil Fish?

Phil Fish is a name I haven’t heard in a long time.  I remember that he was one of the biggest pricks on this side of gaming on the DSP level. I hate this little hipster asshat.  He was a clown who thought more of himself.  After GamerGate, he faded away.  

The thing I want to know is this: Is he still friends with Zoe Quinn?  What are his thoughts about the cancellation and suicide of Alec Holowka?

Phil is one of those white hipsters who really annoy me.  Everything about him just pisses me off. 

IT: Welcome to Derry Episode 1 Few thoughts...

Okay, WB, you got me hooked.  I wasn’t going to watch this episode, but caught it after finishing up Dexter Resurrection.  I am astonished by how well-made the episode was.  You grab people with a powerful opening.  It reminded me of the first episode of Game of Thrones.  

Like everyone else has mentioned, the last ten minutes are one of the best and shocking moments I’ve seen.  The show sets up things, only to take them away.  They aren’t shying away from the horror and violence.  By the way, this show is tied directly to the newer It movies.  

Okay, we’ll see where this show goes.  

Side note:  There is a direct connection to the movie The Shining.  

The Shamwow Guy changes his tune

Whoa, did we flashback to 2014? Woke Busters, really? So, the Shamwow guy has gravitated to the far right since 2016.  He started out as a Scientology hack in the early 2000s, then transitioned into the cable TV salesman/pitchman role by copying Billy Mays.  Then he got involved with a hooker, who kicked his ass.  Now, he’s into the Trump-verse after it is uncool to be in the Trump universe.  Why should I care about trans rights or the other issues raised in this “parody”?  If they’re not fucking with me, I don’t care either way.  

This video is bad, and I have to wonder if this was made during the 2014-2016 rage when the culture wars were raging on.  I used to like this, even during his hooker-fighting days, but this is sad. 

Emiru Just Got Assaulted at Twitch Con

Twitch is a different animal from YouTube.  It feels like Twitch is a safe place for more fragile people and leans far-far left.  People tend to go there to hide from trolls and counterarguments, such as Raiden Hasen Piker.  When it comes to actual security, Twitch is lacking.  

If you are funding a convention with a lot of lonely, creepy, Reddit users with access to cute Twitch streamers, you'd better have better security than one delayed man guarding your talent.  The power of gooners is on another level.  Cute girls and gooners don’t mix without security, law enforcement, and drone strikes.  

I know very little about Emiru or what she does.  She’s cute, and that is all I know.  I am not her audience.  However, watching her get assaulted at a freaking convention is disconcerting.  

I want to know more about the gooner who assaulted Emiru.  

Man Detonates Bomb During Hotel Standoff

So, what happens when you get a crazy fool who likes explosives and enjoys being nude?  You get this video. This happened in Louisville, my hometown.  It happened in the east end of Louisville, my stomping grounds.  We don’t get this type of call in the east end.  

The context of this shit show was that the guy refused to leave him room after checkout.  When you’re busy making bombs, you tend to lose track of time… I guess.  After the cops showed up, Leonard Pitchford (great name for a bomber) decided to blow up one of his own bombs.  There were two problems with his masterful plan.  One, he set off the bomb in his own room in his own face.  Two, he was butt-ass naked when he did it.  The one thing you want to be fully clothed in is making or setting off explosives.  You don’t want to hurt sensitive bits.  

It would seem the naked bomber isn’t sane enough to face trial yet.  You think?  Something tells me he will never get there.
