Wendigoon Thread

You guys see that wendi set up a meme coin? He clearly got some backlash because the tweet is deleted now.

I really enjoy how the heroin junky is able to just quit cold turkey and not fucking die. I can't get over it.
Sam just detoxes in a shitty hotel for a week and it's all good. And the extent of this life threatening detox method amounted to "I'm gonna feel cold and be an asshole and sick for a few days".
And for some reason kimber ends up stripped to her undies and is cuddling him in bed (same girl who was sex trafficked by his father that he's the sputting image of, who recoiled in disgust every other time they touched) while he's presumably shitting himself and vomiting and deliriously hurling verbal (potentially physical if you've ever known junkies on withdrawl) abuse at her in a 90+ degree hotel room.

Also the fact that he somehow hadn't OD'd in the years before this. Seems like Sam is the kinda junky that would have died pretty early on into his addiction considering he was using purely to cope with major trauma. Those types tend to go hard immediately and die soon after.

with the authors layman understanding of guns and huge underestimation of how much work it takes to get proficient at shooting a handgun semi-competently, i'm not surprised that she also underestimates the effects of heroin addiction and withdrawal.

i could go on about the gun thing but i would be being a shit nobody cares about enthusiast.

Wendi would

yeah i guess. if anyone cares-

the thing about how much time it takes to get proficient i think is self explanatory to me but for anyone that it isn't for. you can learn a lot of the theory but a lot of it is establishing muscle memory and necessary habits and overcoming detrimental impulses through a lot of practice. learning how to hold it properly is its own thing and there are a lot of wrong ways to do it that people do because they see it in media, like the "teacup grip". on a side note there's a different grip for auto loaders and revolvers and if you use auto loader grip on a revolver you can blow the tip of your thumb off on your non dominant hand from placing it parallel to the front face of the cylinder. other things are learning where to place your finger on the trigger so that when you pull, it doesn't pull your aim off target. proper grip can compensate somewhat. another thing is getting over your anticipation for the recoil causing you to flinch and mess up your aim. paul harrell has a video where he goes over that and a teaching exercise he's used where you load some magazines with a random order of real cartridges and dummy rounds so that when you pull the trigger you don't know if the gun will shoot. when it's a dummy round you can clearly see yourself flinching, if you're doing it. it's best to have someone load them for you so you truly have no idea what's coming. there's also some stuff that goes against peoples intuitions like that you shouldn't squint when looking down the sights, you shouldn't look at the sights, you're supposed to look at your target and superimpose the sights upon the target (the difference is the distance that your eyes are focusing at and more broadly where your focus is overall), you shouldn't close your non dominant eye and look down the sights one eyed because first of all it's unnecessary and closing one of your eyes changes how your other eye is able to focus. you can observe this yourself if you look at something while closing one of your eyes vs covering that eye with your hand and keeping both open. drawing and firing is also it's own whole thing that you can't just wing unless your opponent in a gun fight is a quadriplegic or asleep.

this stuff kind of doesn't matter in how it relates to the story because ultimately kimber is the one who shoots sams dad and she has training, but at the time she was training sam, they were operating on the assumption that sam was going to do it and it wasn't until after their shit gets stolen that they changed the plan to kimber doing it which should have been the plan the whole time because with how much prep time they had even before they got robbed, sam would have been better off just going home or shooting himself in the head.

honorary shoutout to calling magazines clips which is babby's first gun terminology misnomer.

it's been a while since i listened to the podcast but it had a thing that made me laugh out loud. this isn't objectively wrong and some other gun people could disagree and make arguments in favor of it and not see this as a big deal but when kimber first shows sam the trunk full of guns he sees a shotgun and says something like "is that a shotgun?" and kimber replies "not just a shotgun, a sawed off shotgun". i was just like... wow holy shit. are you planning to conceal it in your pants or shoot it in a tight hallway? i know the author definitely wasn't thinking of any of that when she decided to add that. sawed offs are kind of cool but they have practical trade offs. they have decreased muzzle velocity and lower accuracy (although you can make up for it with a choke), and also are harder to aim because of a decreased sight radius which is the distance between the rear and front sight. the longer it is the more precisely you can aim, especially when you have to aim and shoot urgently. the whole thing just screams to me "these are cool i see them in movies and shit it must inherently be better because it's depicted as special" which is a step or two removed from thinking that a gun being black and having rails makes it more lethal because it fits non gun peoples' mental image of an "assault rifle" (whatever that means) along the same lines as people thinking suppressors make guns so much more dangerous and can make a typical gun whisper quiet. revolvers are often characterized as being the katana of guns but imo sawed offs also deserve that label to an extent.

aside from that, just the thing about kimber feeling it necessary to bring such a stupid excessive amount of guns for only two people is silly and more laymans understanding of guns type of shit. was she planning to add more recruits along the way? at most you only need one handgun, one rifle, and one shotgun for each of you depending on circumstances. if you want then you can add the distinction of a typical military style semi auto rifle and a scoped hunting or military sniper rifle for especially long range shooting. one for each of them with sam being borderline useless with any of them, that's 8 tops. my recollection is that there were way more, like 30 guns or 50, irrc the trunk was packed full. if we're being realistic, that is a massive waste of money and kimber could have invested that waste into other stuff that would have been more useful for them than enough guns for an entire militia of people to use simultaneously for only the two of them. what i'm picturing now that i think about it is that the author and kimber originally imagined the final showdown being the end of hot fuzz but played straight instead of farce.

there might be more but that's what i remember standing out to me. thank you for coming to my ted talk.

I wonder if we'll see the terminally online blame Wendi and Papa Meat for this. They already tried to do it with the boogaloo boy thing.

 

[TerminalTryHard]

After finishing the video, I get why they stopped where they did. It's not like they haven't stopped at the end of a section section before like with The Thing in the Basement. This is just an Twitter ARG so there aren't defined parts, but a one year gap work well enough.

It doesn't help that nothing was happening the story was just going in circles while the author tried to figure out what to do next.

 

[VeteranOfTheRetardWars]

About to go steal a car I'll post the video after

I got my ass beat bruh I'm not posting that shit

 

[scallion]

Them going on about the authors gangly hands is hilarious in the context that he trooned out

 

[Jarch6]

I remember enjoying this reasonably well but I don't remember much about it beyond water turning black, some maybe-aliens, and, obviously, the sun vanishes. I also think I stopped keeping up with it well before it was done so it'll be interesting to finally finish it (assuming it's finished lol)

Good episode, horrible story. It surprises me that this is apparently well regarded given that it shits the bed so quickly.

I think I stopped too early before the cringe started. I remember about a quarter of the og story.

I know this isn't technically the Meat Canyon thread, but it might as well be the Creepcast/shared thread at this point.
Anyway here's Meat stumbling over himself trying to talk about the recent h3h3 drama.

It had a strong premise and some good early videos. People remember the opening pretty fondly but completely forget what happens after that.

So Ethan has strong and very passionate opinions on a very controversial topics because of his family and background and is very defensive about it? Why did meat even throw his hat in the ring in the first place if he has nothing to add?

the less i know about his real political opinions, the better. he isn't the kind of person who i would like more if i found out that he agrees with me and has "based" takes. i have internet people who i do like for that and i have way more that i like for apolitical reasons. i already get the impression that i would find a lot of his political opinions annoying from what little i've seen where it was clear he wasn't being ironic or sarcastic, so knowing them can only degrade my opinion of him and make me like him less. like if i found out that he thought hamas and the houthis were cool and justified in everything they do and he thought hasan piker was a good person who contributes anything of value to society, or that he thinks trans kids are real and they can consent to permanent castration, that would always be in the back of my mind when i'm trying to enjoy creepcast or papa meat videos.

I can't find what video it's from but I'm guessing it's from a livestream and his chat was constantly heckling him telling him he HAS to make a statement and he felt pressure to do so. He was clearly really fucking nervous talking about. I don't get why he couldn't say "I don't follow the drama, I don't care, moving on." Even if he does have an actual opinion he can't be that fucking dumb to think hitching his Meat Wagon to either side is going to be good for him or any of his other endeavors. I expect the next Creepcast to have a shit ton of comments calling Meat a terrorist sympathizer or some shit.
This was a retarded move on Meat's side.

I've already got the inclination he's a lefty, but I agree. I don't need to know his political hot takes. Just make the edgy cartoons, read the creepypastas, and make videos on random topics with your stove/computer puppet on Papa Meat.

Hunter isn't Anisa, you show him one clip of Hasan screaming about killing jews or "the rich" and he'll cave and immediately distance himself from that fucker.

 

[Curious Lurker]

I remember keeping up with the Sun Vanished and enjoying it but stopped paying attention after the creator broke the immersion to make a black lives matter post, didn't know George Floyd was killed by aliens. But holy shit watching the episode now, it did not age well at all, Meat's jokes about the cans and Schrödinger's cat were the only thing that got me through it.

I don't know you tell me

the bits about his manly hands probably triggered the shit out of the author lol

 

[VeteranOfTheRetardWars]

H3H3 drama lol.
Everyone stand back, we need to know a fat YouTube animator's opinion about Ethan Kline before we move forward as a civilization. If we can't see eye to eye with the funny voice creepypasta man, well it's all fucking over and has never been so over.
These guys are just dudes working, and their job isn't anything close to drama channels or politics or whatever.

Hunter should've shut his fat lips. I Imagine that when someone with a brain informs him that he fucked up that he'll put our a tweet apologizing and never talk about it again.

 

[Catgirl Tyranid]

I want Meat Meat's political opinions to remain an enigma. I want every time I see him to confound me because it contradicts what he said the last time in some unforeseen way so that no matter what he says, I take it as a joke. If politics come up, I want him to ham up ridiculous opinions that don't align with anyone's expectations.

Because Meat Meat is funny man and I don't want funny man opinion on funny business.

 

[The Bogwater Rises]

I remember the Sun Vanished thing being pretty good for a while, but it always loses me around the time it's just suddenly some little girl there or something.

Nevermind the moment the friend is obviously anal probed and is like "You're wasting my time asking identifying questions like I was doing earlier!!!" and the MC is like "Should I trust him?" lost me when I tried diving into the story. Then he goes immediately into "I've heard screaming from my neighbor's house for 4 days. I guess I'll go check now." Glad the lads are having a goof with this goofy ass story.
