Revisiting The Channel Awesome Document

I found this dude on a KF page.  

This commentary is very good.  I used to like and respect the Channel Awesome crew.  When I was younger, I wanted to be like these guys.  As I have gotten older, I have seen them as entitled and out of touch with reality.  These kids who got out of high school made it big in the salad days of the Internet.   While flawed, CA did bring some attention to these reviewers.  They would come around and attack the very site that helped them become Internet famous.  

A great many of these guys never had a real, butt-kicking job, so the old CA document seems petty and foolish.  These CA content creators needed to get their hands dirty with real jobs to be thankful for the great jobs they had during the golden years of the Internet.  

As I have gotten to more about many of these former CA, I find them to be annoying.  I think it has more to do with social media.  Even when their fame is waning, they look down upon getting a real job. We all have to do it.

Remember Spoony.

Side Note: My favorite entitled former CA member is Film Brain.  I liked his negative reviews, but he’s changed into a more positive reviewer and moved away from what made him amusing, funny, and popular.  His old videos were getting between 90-150K, and now they are between 2-9K views.  It reminds me of my shitty ass blog.  This blog was getting crazy numbers in the 2000s.  Good thing I didn’t make this my living.  Right, Film Brain?  

Die hard 3| Water Jug Puzzle

At work, I mentioned the water jug puzzle from Die Hard: With a Vengeance.  It was one of those puzzles that I could not figure out even after the scene.  We discussed it and came up with the solution after the time limit.  This scene is one of the reasons I love Die Hard 3 so much.  

The movie wasn’t supposed to be a Die Hard movie.  Jonathan Hensleigh wrote the script Simon Says as a standalone movie.  Wanting to go in a different direction, they commissioned the script for the Die Hard franchise, with some major changes to the second and third acts.  When you go back and watch DH3, please take notice of the tone shift after the explosion in the subway.  The movie goes from a mystery thriller to a full-blown Die Hard movie.  It even reveals its connections to the first movie. 

Tina Peters 2 of 2

Why throw away your entire life over a lie  

County Clerk in a county in Colorado.  There was an audit done in her county and no issues were reported.  She started to believe there were problems with the voting machines and took it upon herself to look into matters.  In stealth mode, she brought in a spy to copy hard drives and other information.  Get this, when it happened, she ordered the cameras to be turned off during the heist.  

She let a former pro-surfer/CEO into the building to record and copy sensitive documents.  Yes, she brought in a former surfer for a heist.  The data ended up on the Internet with passwords and names.  In this orgy of stupidity, the fellow clown, My Pillow CEO, is mixed into this mess.  

During her sentencing, she went completely off the rails. You have to see that video because she talks more about the fake votes than about herself. Despite the facts, she still believes she is a hero.  

While she is sentenced to nine years, I don’t think she will be there that long.  Plus, she will attempt to do right-wing interviews and podcasts in prison.  Trust me, grifters are sweeping for her.  The best part is that she is going to a state prison and not a federal prison.  That means she can get a pardon from Trump if he gets re-elected.  

Did Juliette Lewis leave Xenu?

I am finishing up Peters' story, but I wanted to add a post about a Scitenotist or a former one.  Juliette Lewis, an actress who has been in hundreds of things, has left Scientology.  She fled that stupid religion back in 2021 and I didn't know it.  Given it was Covid season, it was overlooked.  Lewis was a hardcore Scientologist right along with Danny Masterson and Jason Lee.  She probably spent millions to reach a high level of OT on their bridge, and she walked away from it.  

Can she leave?

However, some people claim that she has not left Scienigyu.  So, is all this a lie?  

Tina Peters part 1 of 2

"Get out of my pants" Tina, no one wants to get into your pants.

Tina Peters is a misguided and entitled person.  The video above is of her being arrested. She goes full Karen in her arrest. The more I look into this crazy woman, the more silly shit I find about her and the big lie.  The story is insane and payback is a bitch. Her story is so unreal that I have to break it up.  She is the model of people believing in bullshit. As much as I have problems with the left, the right has just as many stupid people.

Even her freaking age is funny.  She just turned 69 (hee-hee).  

Taken from her Wiki, I learned she received a non-credited degree in holistic nutrition.  Red flag one.  Her degree comes from a correspondence school—red flag two.  Her fake-ass degree came from the fake-ass school of Clayton College of Natural Health.  It was so “natural” that it went out of business in 2010 with many lawsuits.  The school was a joke, so she fit right in there.  She took the right-wing version of gender studies that is plaguing the left.  

Oh, did I mention that she was also involved in multi-level marketing too?  Yep, a flimflam woman. 

Darrell Brooks 2.0

What a clown.  This guy went completely nuts and drove through a barricade to a parade.  He was trying to pull a Darrell Brooks.  Luckily, he didn’t hurt or kill anyone.  The best part is that he recorded the entire incident on his dashcam.  

This guy, who looks like a skinnier Alex Jones, is named Sidney Mecham.  Yes, it is a stupid name.  He is also a sexual predator.  This makes it strange because Darrell Brooks is also a predator, a child predator.  

I love that he calmly takes hits off his vape while evading the police.  This POS got five years in prison.

Star Trek: The Next Generation 1x1-2 Encounter at Farpoint

Watching these young people watch old-school Trek brings back memories.  I love that new people are entering one of my favorite universes.  While I can’t get through Discovery, I like some of the new Trek stuff, but the Berman and Gene Star Trek has a warm place in my heart.  I left a long-winded comment on a first-time watcher of TNG about all the issues BTS on the first two seasons of TNG.  

TNG was my way gateway away from the terrible childhood I had.  Because I had so many issues growing up, TNG was a shining moment that kept me going, and I love that younger people are starting to get into the deeper meanings of Trek.  

Gene screwed that show over with his ego, drug abuse, and decaying health.  It is lucky that TNG even got a second season.  As much as he tried to protect TOS, Gene became TNG’s worst enemy.  

I just love watching these people watch Trek for the first time. 

FULL Sarah Boone on Nickelodeon Game Show- Florida Suitcase Killer

I haven’t talked about the suitcase killer, but she is close to my age.  

Here is a young Sarah Boone, the suitcase killer, in a Nickelodeon game show back in the 90s.  This bright-eyed, fresh-faced, high-wearing blue jeans girl would become a bitter and entitled killer. In the video, you can tell she just wants to shove the game show host into a purse or a travel bag.  Maybe, it is her thing.  

Anyway, this game show was called Nick Arcade.  It was a video game-based game show.  You’d answer questions and play VGs.  Not a bad gig.  I remember this campy little game show, it is a tone-down Double Dare with stranger kids.   

I have so many questions.  Who was the chunky kid on her team?  Did she attempt to shove him into a suitcase?  Could he even fit?  I want to know. By the way, her partner seems to be on the spectrum. In the 90s, she liked to “check out guys and spend money”.  Now, she likes killing guys and firing lawyers.  

If her 90s counterpart saw her today, she would be highly disappointed.  She would mutate into this horrible person with no self-awareness.
