Jesus Christ, that thread is AIDS. I remember why I stopped going on /pol/ now.

was cleaning up my laptop and came across an old render file I put together, and realized the people in this thread might be the only ones to actually appreciate it. full disclosure, I was gonna steal jim's idea for a series making fun of retarded spree killers because it's been years since he floated the idea in a livestream and made that video on randy stair
the first episode was going to be on harris and klebold -- their awful doom wads, the stupid student films they made, all that stuff. I made some custom music and title work and everything, but eventually dropped it because school got busy and I didn't have the time to write a quality script and record the audio. it's kind of a shame because I'd be a way better rip-off than toad mckinley or gator, but c'est la vie
anyway, enjoy

Totalbiscuit got to me. His stuff is what finally pushed me to PC gaming.

TB's cancer and death hit me hard, his cancer announcement was shorty after I went in to remission with my cancer, his WTF is reviews got me though some though times.

why even live

I just wanted the couchcuck/Fuckyou video.

I'd be glad to help out with graphics, art, v.o. etc. All things through Jim!

I guess the thing is with this type of cancer is that whilst it's slow growing and everything, usually because it doesn't show many symptoms if any it's usually a higher grade before it's even found or treated. Obviously the doctors must have found it at some point to say let's watch and wait, but for Jim's benefit I hope it hasn't spread somewhere else or anything whilst they've been waiting on it

Memes on his doomerism aside, it's cancer is shit and I hope he's doing ok. Corona isn't fun even for healthy people- even if it doesn't kill you. I had it mild, fam got it worse but not bad enough to warrant hospital admission. I didn't even get a coof, just a fever and felt like my lungs could only fill up half way. Got out of breath just talking to people. Don't blame the guy for being spooked by it tbh.

Godspeed jimbob

Good to see Jim poking fun at the tards preemptively writing his obituary.

@Null did a stream on couchcuck and Blockland Forums a while back. It was one of the shorter ones if you don’t count the call-ins, good watch

Because people give him the money regardless. Why waste the energy when 10 tweets will get you the same amount of cash as hours of research and editing? They are paying for Jim. His fans are cool with it. They just want proof of life every few days. A few people say something, but as a whole, the Sweetie Squad don't care. And it clearly doesn't bother Jim enough to put out more content or close his funding sources.

He made 4-5 figures per stream basically reading KF threads and having a good personality. I would guess any source of income from the internet does not even comes close to it nowadays, even with the mug trade. Jim was always very entertaining and had huge amounts of charisma but you can never talk about effort for years now, ever since the Tales of the Trout days.
About the illness, I found extremely strange someone that rarely spoke about his personal life coming out now to discuss his long lasting disease after the Ethan Ralph disaster and some autists giving him shit for not jumping in completely out of the blue, but make no mistake: the lack of videos and attacks, like the sperg out against the skeptics when he promised to nuke all of them, is because of the dox (maybe rightly so), so dampen your hopes, there will be no GG II and stop checking your DMs - Daddy Jim does not want on.

I’m just a few months on the other side of a stem cell transplant after being diagnosed with leaukeamia almost 2 years ago, can definatly see why he’s freaking out so much about corona, I was as well until it settled down here. I’ve had people staying where I am and who were in the hospital with me completely fucked from run of the mill shit like colds etc, you pretty much have no immune system for a year plus after. GLHF Jim

Edit: if he is still having treatment he is proabably prescribed infinite painkillers

[Secret Asshole]

Give the guy a break, Jesus Christ. Cancer is a horrifying illness. No matter how stoic you are, you've seen at least one person in your life suffer from it and the horrible, horrible shit they had to go through. You can be as cynical as you want, but dying from cancer is NOT an easy death.

It is incredibly painful. The drugs are actual poison that will kill you if the dosage is just slightly wrong. They insert themselves into your DNA and obliterate cells that grow fast. They are designed to kill human cells. The radiation treatments destroy every single fast growing cell in your body. Your gut flora is destroyed and you are sloughing off layers of your intestines. Everything you eat can cause you monumental pain because there's no gut flora and whatever's left is probably not good. Your bone marrow is obliterated completely, meaning you have NO immune system. A common cold can and will kill you. Many cancer patients die of pneumonia from a simple bacterial infection and antibiotics won't save you, because every antibiotic and antiviral only reduces the number. It relies on your own immune system to pick up the slack, which you can't do.

The radiation destroys skin cells and ignites nerve endings. Chemotherapy is fire running into your veins. The pain and medication might get to you so much, you enter a state similar to that of dementia and delusion. That's how painful cancer is. My grandmother never showed any signs of dementia but the cancer got so bad along with the pain she might as well have had it.

No shit he's going to talk about it. He's scared. He'll try to hide it behind his persona, but that's what it is. We hear people getting cancer all the time we sort of become numb to what that actually means. The possibility of a long, agonizing death that can stretch out for years with no relief and cost you everything, money, family and even your mind. There's no guarantee those years will be remotely pleasant either. And then even if you survive you have to wake up every single day with the fear the cancer comes back again because a cell survived and is growing somewhere else in your body.

So yeah. No matter what he does I'm not going to laugh at him or make fun of whatever he does to try and cope. Its a horrifying illness and one of the worst ways you can die. Even with dementia you slip into a fog and aren't conscious of what is going on around you. There can even be little fear of death because you don't even realize you're dying. With cancer, you are aware every step of the way.

I'm not telling anyone to stop shit posting, as that would make me a hypocrite. But if you're going to shit post, at least have an idea of what he's facing down and why he's acting the way he is.

Honestly, I like Jim. He has some issues but he is not an inherently scummy human being like Ethan Ralph or a weird creature like PPP, he is far more like the average joe among Internet personalities than anything else.

 

[parallelogram]

Jim does what everyone here does: makes fun of lolcows. He just gets paid for it.

Jim getting sick threw both fans and haters for a loop.

If you like Jim's content then the hope was he was just bored or banned from posting more.
If you hate Jim and think he's a grifter then him Tweeting was proof of him being Spoony 2.0

Fans really just took the news at face value and they hope he rides out into the sunset comfortably. It's hard to let things go if you're a hater. Haters have valid points and concerns but they've invested so much into seeing Jim go through the same shit every Lolcow goes through. Now they've got nothing to go on.

The guy has said he's got cancer and he's not making any more videos. It's over. Dragging it out like this is some long con on Jim's part is making some of the people in this thread sound like the delusional losers they claim to make fun of.

To be fair, there are people like me, my only real experience with cancer was some one in my elementary school at 5th grade who had cancer and survived (I wasn't frineds with him and we were in different classes I didn't really get to know him until High School), and then in college when one of my gf's (at the time) classmate/project partner had a terminal slow cancer (and she seemed normal/healthy) and then just died one day over a school break right before the project was due. Then shorty after (Semester or two later), I was told I had cancer, it was an easy cancer (Hodgkin's), responds well to chemo and radation, and high survival rights, but Chemo and radiation still sucks. For anyone who takes what Asshole is saying not seriously or with a gain of salt, its fucking true, and even if you survive and live a long happy life, chemo brain fucking sucks, it takes me longer to process thoughts and ideas and some times I have such a fog in my head I can't even think, and its not like a headache or too much going on, its like you are trying to safely drive though fog that you can't even see out of the car window its so thick, but unlike dementia you are still fully aware of what is going on, and you are fully aware of the mental deterioration.
