Honestly I think these two are the most likely. Maybe he’s just hanging up the mic because the swatting affected him and Jade more than they initially thought, and decided that it was best for their own safety and sanity.
Perhaps it could be reason number two, where he just doesn’t want to get into what’s wrong with him because it’s exhausting to talk about and he doesn’t want to focus on it. I personally doubt that he has an undiagnosable unicorn disease, but I’m here for drama even when it involves my own favorites and biases so I’m here for a chuckle as it is.
I said my piece about how I felt about him leaving earlier in the thread and I won’t bellyache about ~the tragedy~ or anything, because the sands of internet are ever shifting and he’s said his goodbyes to us already.

I guess only time will tell, because he knows that everyone will be looking for his obituary so the only way we’ll know for sure is either after he’s dead or once he’s been exposed as a mega grifter. I mean, it won’t be any skin off my back because I never sent him anything but there would be some very upset sweetie squad members if that were to be the case LOL
Well it better be an iron clad obituary and a well documented funeral. If someone is able to pull off some bullshit like faking his own death it would be Jim. You could pass him on the street and not be any wiser. I think he is sincere, but it is still a "trust me bro" situation. I wouldn't buy in to something like this.

It's also still an option for Dr. house to find the miracle cure just in the right moment as well. Imagine the celebrations and all the support you would receive after barely returning alive from the brink of death from a rare form of cancer aids. it would certainly be a good marketing trick. I don't know how cynical Jim is. But he would know the value of dying. At the very least this has some real conspiracy theory potential.
 
This is my favorite part of the Jim thread. Happens every 50 pages or so.

IDIOT: JIM IS A GOOD BOY WHO DINDU NUTHIN' RONG! JIM WAS KANGS AND SHEYIT!

MORON: WHY ISN'T EVERYBODY UPSET? JIM NEED TO PAY WHAT HE OWE!

Cry more faggots.

Good to see things haven't changed in two years.
If Ralph does not set up a Jim skit at Ralphamania where they get a guy to dress up as Jims Avatar with the white spandex suit and hat and they wheel him into the ring on a wheelchair or stretcher to get powerbombed im gonna be disappointed at a blatant missed opportunity to make a good joke.
I feel like that's more of a PPP/Warski stunt. Ralph will probably just talk mad shit and then screech for the cops when some rando throws a solo cup full of goat piss at him.
 
Not a regular on this thread or anything but I hadn't realized Jim had become such a polarizing figure. People in here either sobbing at his departure or A-logging like he molested their kids. Didn't watch his more recent content in the past few years but stuff like the Spax website review and Deviants were fun to listen to. I will continue to enjoy my own similar niche lolcows in his honor, certainly.

If he's checking out of this mortal coil for real this time, hope he gets to say hi to Terry.

most of that is literally just kozy.gov children shitting on him because their master told them to
 
PL. My mum had cancer, she was receiving different experimental treatments for years and you would not really have known she had cancer just from looking at her (after her hair came back from the first chemo anyways). The cancer then hit her bones, which is incurable. Controllable but incurable.

We all knew she would die sooner rather than later, but she just always seemed so cheerful and fine. The NHS dropped the ball during covid and the cancer spread from her bones to her liver and she was dead within 2 months.
Cancer is fucking nasty and it runs rampant regardless of treatment.

I believe Jim is staring down the barrel of the exact same thing. That maybe he had cancer in a place that was fairly controllable through medical intervention but it has now spread to a place that will kill him quickly. :(

I know shit you hear on stream is never proof of anything, but it's a real long con to insert sound effects of a lighter, putting on a fake smoker's cough, and having pill bottles on hand to shake on a whim.
 
@Null and the MATI stream will likely inherit some audience that has lost their main lolcow stream but he never needed Jims legacy.
Jim did mention two youtubers during his stream. I'll update this if I can remember their names. Maybe someone else does?

Though I'd also vote for 2023 being the 'year of the rabbit' but that's not very likely.

Is having a bottle of pills and smoking symptoms of acute death?

On the plus side of Jim dying I am looking forward to the people he pissed off over the years embarrassing themselves in "getting the last word" over someone who just croaked it, as that has literally become the only way they ever could. None of them got that on air win whilst the guy drew breath and it will be interesting to see which personalities will debase themselves trying to get that "win" and which ones are smart enough to adopt a live and let live approach. Even in death he'll be providing content in the form of how some people will still react seethingly to an anonymous cadaver.

I believe he specifically mentioned Michael Alberto and praised his latest video on AVGN. The only other thing I remember is he spoke about his love for Japanese walking tours and creepy pasta channels after he pulled up his YouTube and it showed like 5 of his subscriptions on screen.

I have to assume people are going "heh Metokur was obsessed with culture war shit >:)" because they have to protect their epic ironic detachment persona and can't just admit he offended them. I mean I haven't paid much attention to him the past few years but he's always been very open and unashamed that he really enjoys internet drama. And most of the drama he's gotten into is just people like Ralph thinking he was his friend because they made fun of the same people.

Like every time he's doing something the past few years, he's not been trying to epically own any Breadtubers he has actual political disagreements with, it's just a bunch of "former fans" getting peeved that he made fun of Nick Fuentes or whoever.

Who was more obsessed, someone who streamed like once a month or some people who spend all their free time online laughing at and trying to own "the freakin' chuds" while wailing about "the culture war".
 
Now that Jim is off the air, I don't want to hear about Ethan Ralph and his gang of supporters, detractors, and rubberneckers anymore. While Ralph's got plenty of issues, he's not that important.

Internet drama is gripping when it uncovers dangerous criminals (remember SnakeThing?), suspicious political activity (Fuentes, Alexander), and alarming social trends (furries). But what's the point in opening the baggage of a rando? Jim could have done better than going out with a months-long feud with another podcaster with the same beliefs.

Jim indeed has his issues -- and this thread hints at them. He even went to the trouble of having himself and his wife change their names to prevent the very embarrassment he inflicted on others.

I admire the talent; I wish he had done more with it.
 
Jim also got away with pushing the very COVID-19 hysteria that would become public policy just a few months later. He may have been somewhat responsible for the brief panic where pandemic worry was treated as potential right-wing terrorism. Had he not vanished due to illness, there would have been a backlash. When he returned, he dropped the subject entirely.
