The worst part is the pacing,

That's what hurts the most. Except for the other thing. That's what hurts the most. But the pacing hurts the second most.

Here's something no one's pointed out.

Clearly the narrator was already gay, but deeply in denial about it. So, when he got his slip it ended up being someone of the same sex because the matchmakers already knew he was gay. I imagine the same thing happened for everyone else in the same situation.

But, that person happened to already be in the twilight zone when he got the slip, I think. So, the only way he could have met his soulmate was if his friend had thrown him into the river and set the events for the rest of the story into motion.

Therefore, nobody in this town has free will. Everything that happens was preordained from the get-go.

And another thing the whole story reeks of those late-2000s-early-2010s YA dystopian novels that were all the rage. Maze Runner, Divergent, those two stick out the most. So either the author or whoever this story was written for must have been a huge fan, if nothing else.

Yeah, some more /x/ stories would be good. I think the goat man story they did for the live show is the only one they've covered. This one seems like it's right up Meat's alley lol. A 4chan grab bag would work really well, /x/ is (mostly) just nosleep without the retarded rules so fun stories are actually allowed to exist

I'm still pissed about how they did Anansi's Goatman. That was a classic (albeit not that great) 4chan story and instead of giving it the attention and due diligence it deserved, they did for their gay live reading show.
I'm sorry but I've tried several fucking times to watch that live show and it just sucks. They're much better on their own and not having deal with a literal audience. Meat obviously didn't enjoy it and he's half the show. I get the feeling a lot Meat likes his audience but then when he goes out and sees them in person at conventions and these live shows he's thinking "Holy fuck THIS is what my fanbase is?"
I'm surprised they're doing another show at all even if they are only doing 1 which I'm willing to bet if Wendi had his way they'd probably do more (at least before his wife got pregnant)

I think a great addition to a 4chan grab bag would be the Ghost Puncher story. It was just so dumb it became humorous.

"Holy fuck THIS is what my fanbase is?"

He didn't seem to mind the thicc bitch in Vegas at the heart attack grill that was a fan.

I'm not saying he hates every fan. But in a crowd like their live readings he's probably thinking "There's a Swiftie in the crowd that's gonna Dimebag me up here"
He probably likes the fans that stick to just watching the videos, not being weird in person.
He'd love us
r..right guys?

No he's a lib with no dick and a half a Ralph's worth of gunt.

Ermm, I think the term you're looking for is libertarian

I do believe he's said as much but I think he's just pulling a Penguinz0 a lot of the time and is too scared to pick a side so he fence sits a lot. Probably why he and Wendi get along so well.

 

[Godchu]

"and back in the year 50 AD adoption wasn't really a thing" dumb statement worthy of the Wendislop channel. Should have been a main channel video

It is a bit gay, a bunch of old school creepypasta stuff was forever burned up on trying to appease the few people in attendance.

Also the reality is that they're internet content creators. They make things and put it online. I'm not sure what type of person goes out to see an e-figure at some sort of live show like that, but we've got an agreement here: they make things and put it online, we watch them, everyone's satisfied. Therefore he's correct to be weirded out by an event like that, the whole thing is unnatural and goes against god's plan.

No he's a lib with no dick and a half a Ralph's worth of gunt.

There was, in fact, a time not so long ago that people could be democrats and not forcibly shove rainbow down everyone's throats. Tbh the guy just seems to be like a 2008 liberal. I definitely don't want to know the specifics of his life or what he and his wife do, but someone can believe whatever they want to so long as they don't spill it everywhere.

That's not having no dick, that's called having restraint.

Bro I was kidding. He dose have half a Ralph Gunt though.

Imagine unironically saying fucking Meat Canyon of all people has anything approaching “restraint.” I’d hit you with the, “He’s not gonna sleep with you, bro,” but he probably would if you bought him a McChicken first.

That's what I'm sayin! It would make much more sense if CreepCast were to do some sort of panel at a convention but not to set up an event for just them reading shit from the internet written by teenagers 10+ years ago.
The live audience part reminds me of this abysmal piece of cringe

I didn't mind the live reading til the redditors came on stage and read the story too. That was some pointy cringe if I do say so myself.

I've still never finished that part of the Live Reading thing because of the guests they brought up. If that was the group they considered the best for video, I fear what other people they got to do other readings (if they did more readings with members from the crowd than just one)

I remember that being talked about ITT, didn't one of the redditors try hijacking the show or something? Or just really fucking sucked at reading. I just remember reading about Meat looking annoyed/uncomfortable.
It's pretty weird to invite crowd members up to read too, it's not like a concert where the band lets a little kid come up on stage for a song. That's endearing and heartwarming, this is was just humiliating and cringe

Now that I think about it, what was the point of the magical ontological guns where you had to believe that a gun would kill somebody for them to work, with the only explanation being a reference to a game that nobody in the audience has played, when nothing would change if they just used regular glocks?

Probably the author's boyfriend was a huge fan of Destiny. I really do think this whole thing was a love letter we were subjected to against our will.

Based on the start of the story and the video’s title I thought it would go a completely different direction and I’m so pissed off I would’ve written it myself if I wasn’t so lazy and also cared more.
So here’s my premise:

In a dystopian society, at 18 you get a slip with the name of your soulmate determined by some council. No one questions it and everyone pretends like the system is good, ignoring obvious red flags and various little inconsistencies. Maybe some people get divorced, but that’s okay, it only means they married the wrong John or Jane - stuff like that. If you dare question it you’re a pariah, of course.
The horror can come in many forms. One example could be suddenly being given a name that means you’re gay like in the story, but this time make it an actual horror scenario where the person is gaslit into believing they’re gay instead of this “the council knew he was gay all along” bullshit, but reddit wouldn’t like a story like that. Of course the protagonist had to have actually been gay in denial all along.

What I thought the plot would be based on the title however, was about a person who ended up getting a name that somehow landed them in a polyamorous relationship. Maybe the other person got two names and the protagonist just has to deal with that fact, or maybe the protagonist and the third wheel have the same name, I don’t know. The protagonist is obviously uncomfortable but it’s okay, the council is never wrong, they just have to learn to like it. Cue increasingly horrific events that go more and more off the rails as the protagonist’s life spirals. It can be purely psychological, it can be physical too, the potential is there.

The whole thing is an allegory to trannies and “egg cracking.” Or just the abusive faggotry that is coercing your partner into an open relationship or polyamory. The end.

Or hunter gave it that name to be funny because he didn't want to call the joke title "boring faggotry" which would have fit better.
