Idk if my woman randomly told me she'd get to be a cameo or walk on in something she'd always loved even if we had other shit going on I'd probably drop everything to find a way to facilitate it.
And if she told you it's an OnlyFans cameo? Nothing explicit, just put a schoolgirl uniform on and do the zero one dance with her BFF? Just this once, pleeeease?

If it was April that killed the Gozilla cameo I suspect the reason was having to finish that stupid movie your hubby started but couldn't be assed to finish while you're busy with his kids, that you allowed him to do on condition he's gonna start being serious about his family after he's done. Now he wants to do the same shit again, and he's a sped who's too nice to tell people no.

? It was about a cameo in a Hollywood movie, you freak. It was a continuation of what I had said before:
free chance to cameo in a big Hollywood movie based on a childhood favorite.
just flipped from me initially talking about myself to being about my partner.
 
You guys are all the hair on the 'taint.
Having an adult speak to me this way upset me. They took advantage of the fact that I was the shy user who wouldn’t post anything. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know who to talk to. I felt helpless, bottling up my anger, the whole ride on Kiwi Farms.

When I was about to post, I reacted in a very impulsive way. I kicked my computer screen onto the floor, not expecting it to break, but it did. It cracked into a spider web pattern. Then I screamed and collapsed crying.

I think he would've fallen apart pretty fast - as you said he's not adept at moving pieces at the speed the Hollywood system expects. By some accounts, he had periodic meltdowns on the AVGN movie.

Realistically, the AVGN movie should've just been entirely different than what he tried to make it. Not just "not filming in Hollywood", but the script and ambitions and production schedule. He tried to make what should've been a small time indie project done at his own pace into a Hollywood production and that's where it went wrong.



VHS2 happened right as he'd started filming the AVGN movie. But more importantly - I think doing that movie utterly broke him. I think he had far more confidence in his abilities before that. I think that's why he turned down the Godzilla movie too.
Probably cameo’ing in someone else’s movie would have been wholly beneficial to him; he’d take a break from the stress of the production and learn lessons from another. The cast and crew of Oldboy used to visit the set of Memories of Murder on their downtime. The decisions and actions of James just seem to stack more and more bizarrely throughout the years
 
I wouldn't say dustborn is bad, bad. It really does fit the funny bad category. If you haven't yet, take some time to watch joshes playthrough. These people shouldn't be too mad, after all avgn did also sponsor their favorite drink!
Have a AVGN meme on Dustborn, based on his quote.

James Rolfe gets to meet Smash JT and his son during their vacation to Game On Expo, since they're both fans. Sure, Smash JT may be another common YouTube ranter that's fighting a lolsuit against Alyssa Mercante, but I'll give him credit for being a good father. And his vacation with his son also pissed off Alyssa Mercante and her simps like thetallblacknerd, the sick bastards.

Why can't the nerd start wearing a hat?
At this point, you just can't save the old look, the balding has gotten to ridiculous levels that it just is jarring. James always wears hat when he's not doing the nerd because he knows his male pattern baldness is ridiculous so why can they just slap a hat. Either go for a fedora, yeah all the fucking AVGN copycats have fedoras, who cares? You're OG, you can copy them. Or get some fucking Hat with a Triforce or some fucking video game thing on it. It's not too hard and it won't ruin the nerd brand. There's plenty of nerds with hats. Just for the love of god stop making us look at that chrome. Either that or just shave it off like so many million of men in your situation do. Sometime bald just looks better than balding. Just own it.

Because that would only attract more negative attention and trolling towards him. His detractors would start claiming that he is insecure about his hairline and they got to him with all their mockery of it, so now they'll just ramp it up times ten.

At the end of the day he has already made his decision: his hairline is naturally going due to his age. He isn't going to do anything about it.
 
Leaving your hair on when you're on the halfway of your scalp to 100% baldness IS being insecure about your hairline. It looks like complete dogshit and makes you look like someone who's desperate to hang on to whatever hair they still have.

He should get a wizard hat like Mike wore when he karaoke'd "Puff the Magic Dragon." :lol:

I completely agree though. Get a hat or shave it off. AVGN is a character with a distinctive look and voice. His stupid yacht captain shirt, generic tattoo and glaring baldness are just distracting from his content which has long been gasping on life support thanks to his move to Slobwave.

All of the above comes down to him being a stubborn turo-sped that quadruples down on bad decisions instead of learning and moving on.

The motherfucker gouged a hole in a desk with a knife rather than buy a longer network cable.

That sums it up quite nicely, I feel.

I mean, people have been going bald for centuries. It is a natural thing that a lot of men are going to have to deal with. Not every man looks good with a shaved head. I personally feel for a lot men it makes them look older. Even if they are balding, people should naturally have a little bit of hair on their head.

People harp on it too much with James. It is not like he mocks other peoples appearances while looking the way he does. If he likes having what is left of his hair on top of his head so be it. If I were in his shoes I would just trim it a little bit shorter to make it look a little bit more neat.

Agreed. People ragging on James for something he can't control (hair loss) are retarded, especially when there are so many other better things to chimp out over like the dress shirt he used in his latest episodes.

This shirt. This FUCKING SHIRT. I could write paragraphs and paragraphs about how much I fucking HATE THE FUCKING ABSOLUTE SHIT OUT OF THIS FUCKING SHIRT, but I will restrain myself. But yeah I hate his fucking shirt even more than the fact that he's slowly cheapening the legacy of his series by continuing it despite losing all passion/momentum only for the sake of providing for the future of his daughters like a good father. What an asshole!
/sneed But not about the shirt. Fuck you AND your shirt, James!

It isn't the hair loss we rag on, it is how he chooses to handle the hair loss.

Losing his hair isn't anything he could do much about, but there are more diginified choices he could make grooming-wise which would make him look a lot better.

I understand. The point I was trying to make (poorly) is that he's not playing a character that's "stuck in time". James' facial features have changed as he's grown older. The only way he can "go back" to being the original Nerd is with a wig and makeup/CGI (and by getting MotherFucker Mike back, but that's another story) and these superficial changes won't bring back the fire and outlook he had back then.

It sucks, but we got to admit that James is now the AMAVGN: Angry Middle Aged Video Game Nerd.
ugly tattoo on arm
I think his tat is fine. It does break character a bit because tats are COOL and not for fucking NERDS. Could be solved by just wearing a long sleeve shirt WHICH BRINGS ME BACK TO HIS MOTHER FUCKING SHIRT I HATE IT SO FUCKING MUCH RREEEEEEEEEEEEE
