They hate White people because they do as they're told like good libshit normies, but they really like to dig into the old White lady material the most; I'm wondering what kind of relationships these people have with their aging parents, especially their mothers.
By the time they got to Balloon Boy, I was ready for the fatty comments, which were all but completely absent. Rich admits that they're a bunch of perverts, which isn't news after all the zoophilia they projected onto a bunch of middle-aged-to-elderly women.
They failed to make me laugh. That's the biggest sin. I just kept thinking about how harmless their targets are. It reminds me of how I turned against the Daily Show ages ago, when I noticed that their remote segments were often featuring powerless people who had the audacity to be a little eccentric, instead of going after real political assholes; even if their p.o.v. wasn't perfectly inline with mine, they had enough media connections to chase bigger targets, and failed to do so out of laziness and cowardice.
Count me on the side of those who critique RLM for having the same failings.

Eat shit, sticker-niggers, I'm still writing!
The worst hypocrisy they have going is this one: hand-waving everything they say w/r/t projecting perversity onto some long-forgotten video makers as the work of RLM, le wacky perverts, all the while pretending they haven't spent decades being wokescolds against filmmakers for "having a case of the not-gays." Their libshit moralism is the procrustean bed by which I measure them.

Them not wanting to admit/acting like they didn’t know why they thought they maybe shouldn’t be laughing at the balloon shaped balloon addict was a perfect joke in itself.
There was a certain irony when Jay “Fag-shenanigans” Bauman got upset when the clearly autistic man mush-mouthed a word (“Was that a gay slur?”).
 
I don't doubt Never! Get Lost... is a bad instructional video for a lot of reasons, but also their attempts to criticize the methodology definitely confirm their hypothesis that they were just too dumb to understand the concept. It's basically just keeping track of dead reckoning so that if you get disoriented you have some idea of the direction and travel time to some landmark or point you've previously visited.

I like this guy's version of it, especially since he counts his paces rather than logging minutes, which seems like it would be more consistent

Sorry but if you watch RLM and this sort of anti woke shit pops into your head, you’re a faggot who needs their internet use revoked

I think many people are familiar with dead reckoning in navigation. I'm not sure I'd have recognized the concept either from watching the video. I'm sure they played it up for comedic effect, but that video mystified a fairly straightfoward idea. IIRC, a selling point of the video is that you don't need a compass, but that would be a far more useful tool than a protactor if you're a hiker. The mathematical approach is surely more appropriate in pure navigation, which I think they were trying to express in a confused way in their discussion.

Nah a compass was vital to his whole thing. He was squinting through one on the cover of the VHS (RLM not recognizing it as such was my first clue that their attempts to understand anything would be hilarious. C'mon Rich you never played ARMA?)

Otherwise, agree, it looked like he was deliberately over-complicating it to increase video runtime.
 
I'm not sure the Wheel of the Worst is a good idea for episodes because of it's randomness they might pick the most boring videos as a result. I'm pretty sure they dodged the most interesting tapes on the wheel this time. Like sure first video crazy cat ladies LARP they can communicate to horses. Worth 1 joke fine. Second video some fat slob loser makes balloon animals and somehow it looks gross the way he makes them but he's not being overly creepy at least. And last video some stupid boomer is trying to shill his navigation method that would surely get you lost in the woods instead of saving you. Not much content there for over an hour. They should just pick what looks more interesting videos like in Best of the Worst typically does. Or do what most creators do have their Patreon pick it. I ended up skipping most of this. Lame episode.

The random element is the entire point. They are going in cold and seeing what they find.
