TGWTG The Spoony One / Spoony / Noah Antwiler and Rachel Baker / @RaeAngel07 - The touching romance between a washed-up videogame reviewer throwing a decade-long pity party and his delusional Canuck stalker. #weaknotsick #donttellmehowtosulk

Phil at least lives somewhere resembling the real world.

Spoony lives in a Hellworld where everyone but him is an idiot and their views shouldn't be given credence. He can't make normal conversation because the only thing we're allowed to say is he is right. He likes to stir up arguments with people and make them uncomfortable. I'm willing to bet that's why he's only had two romantic partners.

You could replace the generic stick figure with Spoony or Rachel and it would be spot-on.

Out of all the cows and speds on here, I hope Spoony gets to turn his life around the most. He's been a self absorbed asshole now, but I remember a time when he regularly brought a smile to my face. When I thought he had a spark of decency in him. He certainly had a wealth of creativity and passion in the old times. Ive dabbled in content creation before, and I know the weight it carries when you promise certain things and fail to deliver. Or how easy it is to slack on it. Now tack on all the other issues he was dealing with and I cant say I blame him for burning out.

Twitter was his main downfall in my opinion. Ive seen that site do terrible things to better people without them even realizing it. He needs a break badly, hopefully he'll never come back because it will continue to enable the worst aspects of his personality.

Honestly hope we never hear from him again. He needs to spend some time in the real world and actually reevaluate his life.

Nah, that's bullshit. As people have mentioned, spoony was a toxic asshole to fans long before his twitter addiction. And if you actually think about most of his counter monkey stories as a functional adult? He was just being a dickhead as a player and a DM at times, which showed when he attempted to participate in another game after starting his spoony experiment. Why did that game fail? Because at that point no one wanted to put up with his bullshit when it actually came down to people spending their own time.

Almost screeching rants about splitting up the party? "punishing" players for doing things he didn't want them to do? Playing a game system without bothering to do any reading on it and then complaining about (l5r dueling)? Being proud of not following the rules and crapping on players who didn't expect a hardcore game(leaping wizards)? All Jedi or no Jedi? Being intentionally disruptive to everyone else playing a game(spoony's jyhad)? The toilet pizza? Abusing a game mechanic to the point of basically forcing a campaign to end(squirt gun wars)?

These are all counter monkey episodes, and if you look through them with the lens of someone other than an edgy teen in the 90s... he was just being a shithead. He also barely talked about Pathfinder, hardly mentioned D&D 4e, "reviewed" D&D 5e without having actually played it(admittedly it has a lot of problems). He hadn't done jack in years. All of the movie stuff? For the most part it was cinemax/showtime/hbo and blockbuster rental nostalgia. His video game reviews? Even his FF13 review(and I'm not even sure he played it because I think that was the "review" where he "borrowed" a bunch of footage from other people), the game was already 6-7 years old at that point? Anything more recent in his livewire streams he's just god awful at, and even the older games he was supposedly way into, he's still terrible.

Look. The only reason spoony "succeeded" is because it was fairly easy to get some laughs on the internet for a while. The reality is, he ran out of content because he likely started the spoony experiment after he got ostracized from the social groups he was participating in that were his source of content that involved anything more than him doing something by himself. Twitter wasn't his downfall, it was running out of anything he actually had any experience with to talk about with any sort of confidence to think he was a "subject matter expert" or whatever. Sucks at video games so that's basically out of the picture. Sucks at TTRPGs to the point of not being able to find a group when people were practically throwing themselves at him as players. And it isn't like he ever really had a wealth of knowledge regarding movies. And the saddest? I seriously doubt he actually played half of the board games from his little "Black hole"(or most of the shit on his shelves really) with other people either "back in the day" or even later on unless he roped April into playing with him(again, so much crap on his shelves, yet somehow had nothing to discuss that came out after he started his little experiment.) Why? Because tons of games have come out over the past 20-30 years, yet he's got jack shit to mention about them? Come on.

Always was a self absorbed asshole, he just had an audience and outlet for a fairly short span of time until he ran out of material. Creativity? No. Passion? No. Spark of decency? Not a chance.

What a wiener trying to discredit Miles the American Hero from stopping illegal aliens from terrorizing on 'Murican Land trying to give a veiled threat like Miles will jump in to attack to defend him from internet bullies.

Hell, Spoony is one of the few people where I'm glad I downloaded videos back in the day and kept them on an external hard drive. They inspire me, partly because they take me back to a time before everything started to suck, but partly because Spoony was actually one of the best reviewers to come out of the "angry reviewer" era... in part because he wasn't always angry.

I liked the angry reviewer era far more than our current cucked times. It just seemed like the independent internet critics were less likely to put up with bullshit. Nowadays they fall over themselves to suck corporate dick and tell everyone what they want to hear.

Spoony was novel because he said Final Fantasy was shit in the mid 2000's. A time when EVERYONE was pretending those games were good. The height of cringy weebs thinking they were deep because they liked the story of an imaginary man who's dad was a whale. And also liked the story about the closseted homo with clownshoes chasing his best friend and saving Disney princess. Noah was one of the first high profile, infamous people to call those people out for their cringyness. Nowadays no one would do that for fear of getting cancelled by FFXIV playing ERP trannies and their catgirl grooming targets.

Oh he'll keep squatting, just in their place. They'll walk Oreo for him and bury her when she dies. They'll leave him the house in their will and he'll turn that into a shit hole too. And when he gets kicked out, he'll accept that it's his fault but won't do anything to fix it.

Can we take a moment to figure out how he managed this 1,600 mile trip?
Noah himself said that the lemon he purchased (after totaling his last car) was hardly up to the task.
Him adding shelving to his Amazon wish list suggests he managed to pack up most if not all of his D&D books.
(Shame too, the dense fuck deserved to have that shit thrown in the dumpster as a wake up call)
So either his parents coughed up the money for a U-Haul and he trucked his way though 26 hours of highway
or
He was dragging ass emitting bumper sparks and carving a gash from Oklahoma to New Mexico.
Either way he had Oreo as a passenger, probably not a fun trip for an old dog.

In any case, unless Spoony hops back on Twitter and he's just as obnoxious as before, then one can assume it was a mostly humiliating and humbling ordeal.

I see two possibilities. Either his parents flew him back to Arizona and paid movers to ship his shit like @RJ MacReady mentioned, or Miles took a vacation, traveled to Spoony, moved all his shit into a truck and drove them down to Arizona. Either way, Spoony didn't do jack shit.

I think we won't hear from him ever again. He will be forced to go to therapist, pick the job and provide for himself. I doubt he will have time for shitposting on Twitter any longer simply because he is a lazy fuck and years of laziness will take score on him working from 9-5. He'll be too exhausted to rant about some comic book on Twitter.

From what I recall he always wanted to be TV celebrity - not Internet one. Youtube was more accessible at the time and required less effort than nowadays when even the sloppiest productions require some equipment and script to carry on. Working for some TV station on the other hand provides everything he need. Cameraman's, script writers, producer, audience and so on. It only requires him to sit at front of the desk and read the script previously prepared for him and wait for signs "Laugh", "Applause".

It's kinda funny watching that guy rag on Spoony and calling him greasy and lazy while he's got his hair straggling out of his baseball cap and hasn't shaved. I think he might be an A-Log.

I wonder if maybe they forced him to get inpatient mental health treatment somewhere. Honestly it's probably the only thing that even could get through to him, and finally actually being out of the house probably has him bottomed out hard.

I really liked spoony back in the day, but not sure if I watched his last year or so of vlogs because April was so fucking annoying.
