Charlie / penguinz0 / moistcr1tikal - Angry and bigtime Youtuber and Twitch Stream, going off rails

[Professional Noticer]

Charlie was funnier back in the day IMO. Baritone, deadpan, avgn flavored commentary over shitty vidya was better than seeing james rolfes dumb face, over-reactions, and "comedy" skits in avgn.

Nowadays seems his videos are all twich restreams and clips, usually about him flexing on other youtubers for not living up to his personal standards (which i dont begrudge him for, hes a pretty standup dude). Not interesting in the slightest.

Yeah, he is just "another one" now. I also never watch his shit either, I cannot stand react streamers/youtubers.

 

[naaaaiiiiillllll!!!]

If you're around women in The Caring Professions (tm), there's a type of guy they tend to end up with, so it made sense to me. A lot of dudes who were self-employed "contractors" in the old times, wanna-be streamers and podcasters in the modern day. This was the anomaly in that he actually was making great money, but it's funny to think about Tiana's coworkers in paw-print scrubs saying "oh yeah, Charlie, he's a streamer" the same way some other tech's boyfriend is totally going to make it big any second now.

Very interesting observation that I haven’t heard before. Do you have more insight why this may be? Women wanting to nurture guys until they “break through”? They like being the stable “caring” foundation in the relationship?

Thank you, but it's super stale. Look around about "nurses' husbands," but it also applies to caregivers, techs, vets, some lady doctors. Not sure if dental hygienists. Generally a functional codependent lady in a career where she makes reasonable money and can pick up more hours easily.

He needs her. She can fix him.

Spoiler: anecdata, of course Not All Husbands

Another thing that happens is the relationship is 50/50ish, then the man loses his job or quits because he "can't work for someone else," and the woman is working, and then picking up extra hours to make up so she's not around the house, and the man is unsupervised so when she gets home he tells her all about how he's applying everywhere OR he's working hard on getting his contractor business/specialty antique car mechanic business/MLM (rarer)/streaming career going. What was he actually doing all day? It's a mystery, but it's not a lot of the house chores, and often it's not even the traditional yard/car/plumbing.

If there are kids, he becomes the "stay-at-home-dad," but for some reason this does not include chores or in fact most of the intellectual work of remembering what needs doing. If there is an agreement that he will go back to work when the youngest is in school, he'll start pushing for another baby when that kid is 5 or so.

I was genuinely surprised this dude even had a thread when I heard the breakup news, he's such a bland "white noise" type of youtuber that either streams on Twitch or recaps today's pointless drama in a monotone voice. I'm surprised he was apparently good at one point, because the only times he's been interesting to me is when he's actually done stuff in the real world, like trying out Dale's shitty survival tactics, or that one other time he and Sneako were pulling guns on each other over Twitch shit.

Guess I'll chill and wait for this "co-parenting" thing to blow up, there's only so many times you can just send your dogs off to your ex.

On the heels of Destiny divorcing, Charlie and his girlfriend are breaking up (via his official instagram -- I'm not sure how to archive so any help is appreciated):

(1) This was obvious given the amount of "relationship fail" content Charlie was putting out lately

(2) If you unironically talk about "co-parenting" pets, you should put a bullet in your skull.

Wait, so youre telling me all i have to do to get a hot nurse gf who will work extra hours while i stay at home and tend to my localized morning-induced bloodflow problems, is to become a terminal "self-employed" couch surfer?

Sign me the fuck up.

Pretty much. You have to start the relationship and then ease into the work-shy lifestyle gradually, or after having a legitimate injury or job loss. Get the sunk cost fallacy working for you with real estate and/or a kid. You may also have to relax your definition of "hot," but I've seen this work for guys for 20+ years.

Hell, Ill take a 98.6° warm if shell pay MY bills. Sugar momma, here i come.

Go feminism! Girl power! Rah rah!

I’m VERY curious on how Charlie is gonna start dating women and he’ll have to bring up his dildo collection and explain in detail how he’s not gay nor a size king…..

 

[Aunt Carol]

he’ll have to bring up his dildo collection and explain in detail

It seems more likely that any women he ends up with are going to know him by reputation already, which will of course be a double-edged sword. Unless he's e-dating, he seems like a homebody, so unless friends fix him up it's just a matter of waiting for online women to smell the blood in the water.

Im going to guess Charlieboy isnt a homebody. The chance of his friends hooking him up are pretty high imo, though the question of how he's going to explain his perpetual adolescence to a girl who's not similarly woman-childish is a good question. Seems to me that and his height will preclude him from a good portion of women who he'd be interested in. Unfortunately for us, him having little GF content in his videos will likely leave us guessing (and this thread barren) until he's already balls-deep in a new relationship.

And yet another stupid and fairly obvious thing that Charlie fell for hard, the Rubi Rose stalker.

I don't know how he ever passed uni, he falls for everything.

To be fair, the guy does look like a disgusting coomer. Even if this scenario is fake, I don't doubt that he constantly chokes the chicken.

so if i use my inhertence to claim im rich and bribe a girl with gifts would that work?

That'll work to get a (certain kind of ) girl, but probably not the pink collar sugar mama that @SanicBlackMagic is going after. The dynamic we were talking about upthread was both people having a job, the lady's being in the "caring professions," and then the man hurts his back/gets fired/decides to start his own business doing auto detailing and it just isn't taking off, darn it. If you search for the phrase "tolerable level of permanent unhappiness" you should get some case studies.


More on topic, I wonder how much of a Cr1tikal Lovequest will even be visible/public. The worst criticism that Charlie gets is that he's boring and middle-of-the-road, and it seems to be because he hangs around with his friends and family and boring girlfriend, none of whom so far has it in them to key a car or throw a brick through a window or hijack a social media account and post TMI and butthole candids. A Trojan Whore could change that.

Agreed. What @Saddam Hussain Obama is proposing is just renting an expensive hoore. I want MY girl to BRIBE me by doing all the work while I freeload and work on passion projects.

Interestingly, I have a friend who's wife's sister is married to and working for such a lazy piece of shit. The guy's a full time Sound Cloud rapper/dj with little to no fans outside of people such as my friend and his extended family, who are in essence doing what we do here with lolcows; observe, laugh, talk mad shit behind his back, and question the sanity of all parties involved. It never fails to astound us what kind of psychology is underlying that trainwreck of a relationship.

God damn it. You were most of the way there AC! Why didnt you call her a Trojan Whore-se?

I get the feeling charlieboy isnt the type to go on a lovequest - his middle-of-the-roadedness, his full time Youtube Personality "job", and his fair temperament preclude him from a truly spectacular sperging. I think its far more likely his friends & family will introduce him to some (fairly well) vetted girls they know and we will be disappointed in the lack of delicious milk.

TBH, I actually kind of hope that is exactly what happens. I still like Charlie as a person and though his videos suck now, I still enjoy old cr1tik4l videos and dont want him to become a hall-of-fame grade lolcow.

We'll see, though I chose to remain

His B. A. Baracus-level fear of flying really might have protected him from a lot of drama escalation. Even if crazy love bloomed on the online, if Charlie decided to show up on someone's doorstep with an engagement ring and a box cutter, they'd have a few days' warning while he's on the road.

He does seem like a nice guy. Even his little side projects are all achievable goals: let's write and publish a comic book, let's do a podcast, let's do skits with a local amateur wrestling league, let's eat different cheeses like we're Uncontacted Tribespeople React. You don't get greatness without a degree of hubris, but he's naturally consistent in a way that most "personalities" would need a professional handler to maintain.
