This guy has a pretty big chip on his shoulder over advertising and people.
He is right though, this type of advertising does get a lot of views and works pretty well.

He does have a chip on his shoulder, and for good reason. Hes pretty cynical of today's society and I believe hes right a lot of the time.
My problem with Buckley is that his viewers are just as stupid as the people he criticizes.
I've always wondered the meaning behind viral facebook trends, his theory of "selling large followers to businesses" makes a little sense at least.
These are really really bad. They're just such an obvious plooy that I just feel embarassed for people falling for it. The worst ones are from random people that somehow have millions of facebook subscribers posting pictures of deformed kids or something captioned with things like: 'IF YOU FEEL SORRY FOR THIS KID: LIKE IF NOT: SCROLL'. Fucking idiotic
I feel like punching my "friends" who fall for the retarded pics that say "hur hur Comment 'what ever stupid shit' and see what happens." Any more I have a Facebook because that's how I connect to a large part of my family. I am only on there for a few minutes to see whats going on then I am off of it.
Spread this to the retards on reddit. I don't even think anyone here apart from maybe new users to the forum would be dumb enough to do any of these things. We all know what a gif is. We also see bullshit a mile away, those photos where they are like "LIKE IF YOU LOVE YOUR MOTHER. CARRY ON SCROLLING IF YOU WANT HER TO HAVE CANCER" and that hurts me because my Dad passed away from Colon Cancer a year on the 12 this month but I don't turn around and go "Oh it's happened already I don't want my Mum to get it so I better like it" The first thing that comes to my mind is fuck you playing with my feelings. If anything people who are stupid to fall for that shit still deserve to get spammed.

Then you don't have a problem with Buckley, but his viewers?
[QUOTE=Derpmonster;40297967]Then you don't have a problem with Buckley, but his viewers?[/QUOTE]
He shapes his viewers through his content.
I think Buckley's "top 10 worst songs of ______" being full of songs that he just refers to as "hipster bullshit" without actually trying to explain faults with the song shows how sharp this guy is. I mean, don't get me wrong he's got some good points, but he's still a fucking idiot.
Ah yes the guy who thinks you need to spend 1,500 to get a half decent gaming computer. Obviously an intellectual and a master of comedy.
[QUOTE=Winters;40299038]Ah yes the guy who thinks you need to spend 1,500 to get a half decent gaming computer. Obviously an intellectual and a master of comedy.[/QUOTE]
also the guy who agrees with the death penalty
I understand this guy wants people to be skeptical and things, but goddamn is he cynical. I have a feeling he's one of those people that can barely enjoy anything in life because they see faults in everything and nothing can make them happy, etc. He has a point, but just the way he seems so angry about it just kind of makes me want to say "dude, chill."

Uh oh, someone has a different opinion than you, you better use that to damage his credibility!
Dude, chill.

considering that he puts off the impression of being some all-knowing asshole genius, it's kind of funny that he doesn't know something as simple as "computers aren't that expensive as long as you're not stupid."
also him agreeing with the death penalty harms his reputation because it proves he really has no empathy for anyone. he straight up said something along the lines of "they're wasting space, why don't we just kill them?"
I still believe bringing in this guy's other opinions into the mix is a bit much, I guess, especially given the topic isn't really all that serious. I don't know, it just doesn't seem really worth all the trouble.

I imagine he isn't that cynical irl.
Hes obviously not as cynical in real life

Except claiming that a good gaming PC will burn a hole in your pocket the size if Texas isn't an opinion based o fact. He is either A. Being ignorant on purpose for the sake of "comedy" or B. being ignorant because he is saying the first thing that comes to his mind.

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;40299426]also the guy who agrees with the death penalty[/QUOTE]
Agreeing with the death penalty or not is a simple matter of opinion.
Claiming you need 1500 dollars for a decent gaming PC is just being flatout wrong.
he has a good point but half is video is like
"ur a fucking idiot"
"cunt-sultant hah lol"
"why is everyone such a dumbass lol"
all this cursing puts me off. he could have said the same thing better had he not sounded like a pissed off neckbeard with no anger control
There is one dude on my friends list that every fucking day finds a new "ignore if you love santans" picture.
[I]Santans.[/I] Could you BE any more dense?
"Tag a friend if they woudl bang dis fat chick xD!!!!"
FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF
Why does this keep popping up, are my friends actually falling for this shit too?
Super long names with completely different randumb pictures are about 99% of my wall too
And of course you try to block that garbage and it just gives you an error because LOAD$AMONEY

Uh, no it doesn't? I support the death penalty and I am quite the empathetic person
The only reason I have Facebook anymore is to chat with people.
My friends comment on this shit but most of the time it's like "wow all of you are a bunch of fuckwits"
also i've never used the ticker, this shit comes up on my news feed
I think this is just a persona he presents himself to the Internet and it's his thing for his channel.

People thought that about TAA too. These overly cynical types to me always seem to be venting a repressed personality. I couldn't act that bitter and cynical if I tried.

Thats just you.
I could easily act bitter and cynical though it wouldn't be very entertaining since I don't have a way with words like some people do
I dont have Facebook, I have heard it's a horrible place.
