Playing some Game and Watch Gallery 1 2 and 3 (GB, GBC) – Mike Matei

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4U_vOQI4DM

19:45 – Mike goes on an extended rant against people on Twitch who speed run games that they’ve never played before.  

21:30 – “Literally, they’ll be like, ‘I’ve never played this game before and I’m speed running it.  It’s like, you don’t just start with speed running.  You have to play a game a bunch.”

He’s talking specifically about speed running but he might as well be talking about Erin.  He uses the phrase, “I’ve never played this before” a lot during this rant and that’s like Erin’s catchphrase.  He must know that her videos are complete trash and that she’s a fraud. 

1:14:00 – The music in the game reminds Mike of a different song but he can’t place it.  He thinks that it’s music from a video game, possibly Mega Man.

1:14:45 – Somebody in the chat suggests, “It’s a 50’s song.”

Then Mike sort of hums a few bars.

Somebody in the chat suggests that music was from a Popeye game.  After some reflection, Mike says, “Yeah, you’re probably right.”

No.  Mike was clearly thinking of I Will Follow Him (1963) by the surprisingly still alive Little Peggy March.

He’s a big Little Peggy March fan, guys.  That’s embarrassing.  Although, I knew the song as well.  It’s just something that you hear.  Maybe it was in a commercial or something.  Actually, it was probably in a movie.  What am I thinking of?  

Oh.  Sister Act.  Yeah, that’s right.  Mike is a big Sister Act fan, guys.  Also embarrassing.  But, again, I have to admit that I’ve seen Sister Act as well. Plus, that song was in every fucking commercial for that movie, if I recall correctly.

Mike is just sitting there watching the entire Whoopi Goldberg filmography.  Jerking off.

She was also in Star Trek: The Next Generation, of course.  I can’t recall Mike ever talking about her, though.  He sometimes talks about Star Trek characters who he’d like to fuck in the ass but Guinan is always curiously absent.  

Oh, also somewhere in the first 30 minutes of this stream, I think, Mike mentions that Shishi made some animated gifs for him.  So if you subscribe (pay $5/month) to Mike’s stream, you get to use these animated gifs that Shishi made.  What an incentive.

And Shishi is such a disgusting scumbag.  He’s constantly jerking off to the love of Mike’s life.  Plus, Shishi makes A LOT of creepy as fuck comments just generally.  But as long as he keeps giving them money, Erin and Mike overlook everything.

1:35:00 – Mike is talking about Saturday morning cartoons.  Somebody in the chat suggests the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon but Mike says that when he thinks of Saturday morning cartoons, he thinks of earlier stuff like Saturday Supercade and Looney Tunes.

Really.  I’m about the same age as Mike and I never even heard of Saturday Supercade.  Let me look this shit up.

It ran from 1983 to 1984.  No.  There’s no fucking way.  Mike was born in about 1980.  He remembers watching this show when he was four years old?  I’m older than him and don’t remember this.

And fucking Looney Tunes.  Yes, Looney Tunes were shown on Saturday mornings but it’s not what somebody of Mike’s age would think of when they think of Saturday morning cartoons.

Smurfs.  Snorks.  Foofur.  Flintstone Kids.  Gummi Bears.  Those are just off the top of my head.  And Foofur was shit but I remember it just for the name.

1:36:00 – “I remember like the fucking Q-Bert cartoon and all of that garbage.”

What?  There was a Q-Bert cartoon?  He’s so full of shit.  Let me this up.  This has to be before his time too.  Yeah, he’s just talking about Saturday Supercade again.

1:36:30 – “There was like a Pebbles and Bam Bam cartoon.”

What?  I have to look this up too.  It sounds like something from the 1970s.

Yeah.  1971 to 1972.  What is this shit?  Does he have the same affliction that Erin has where you pretend to like stuff from before you were born?  

This show was not broadcast at any point in the 1980s on Saturday mornings.  Why doesn’t he just name actual Saturday morning cartoons that were aired in the 1980s?  Stuff that was then contemporary and that he actually watched.

Oh finally, he mentions Snorks and Smurfs.  

What about The Mr Magoo Show?  Did you enjoy that one on Saturday mornings, Mike?  Or The Ruff and Reddy Show?  Any fond memories of The Adventures of Pow Wow?  

Fucking Pebbles and Bam Bam.  Fuck you and your totally invented *nostalgia*.

Somebody in the chat mentions Mr T.  No.  You were too young to watch that, Mike.  Again, I don’t even remember it and I’m older than him.

“That’s my era.  The Mr T cartoon.”

Oh, do tell.  It ran from 1983 to 1985.  You were no older than five when the show was cancelled.  What’s your favourite episode?  

1:38:30 – Mike says that he was no longer watching the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon by the fifth season, or indeed any cartoon.  “I was more into watching sitcoms by that point, like Roseanne.”

Really?  On Saturday mornings?  Roseanne was on at that time? 

This would have been about 1992.   So he’d be 10 years old.  Personally, I watched Saturday morning cartoons until they ended which was when I was about…13?  14?  Maybe I was just slow to mature.  But what else were you going to do on a Saturday morning?  I don’t remember Roseanne being on.  Because it wasn’t.  Not on Saturday mornings, anyway.  

After the cartoons on Saturday mornings, they would show sitcoms.  This was by about the afternoon.  The sort of sitcoms that were being shown were The Brady Bunch, Gilligan’s Island, shit like this.  Stuff from the 1960s and 1970s.  Not programs that were still being aired on network, prime-time television.  The stations couldn’t afford that.  That’s why they showed these old shows over and over again.  The broadcast rights were cheap.

He’s just totally winging this.  Same as Erin does.  And that’s why Erin constantly gets caught out in lies.  Erin has never done anything in her entire life so she has to just guess at everything.

Why the fuck would Mike lie about this?  Just name some fucking cartoons that you saw as a child on Saturday mornings.  

I remember Reboot.  I liked that.  That was in the early 1990s.  There was some Scooby Doo cartoon from when they were kids.  Oh, there was Muppet Babies.  That was shown for like two hours at one point.  Garfield was another popular cartoon.  They had that Garfield/US Acres hour or 90 minutes.  I preferred the US Acres cartoon.  This was based on a short-lived comic strip that Garfield author Jim Davis had at the time.

These are genuine.  You can look any of this up.  These were cartoon that all aired on Saturday mornings from about 1986 to 1993.  This is the era that Mike should be able to remember.  

There was no fucking Pebbles and Bam Bam or that Saturday Supercade or Mr T.  And there sure as fuck was no Roseanne.

1:38:45 – “I remember that there was like a Dungeons & Dragons cartoon.”

Fuck you.  That’s another one before your time and I don’t remember it either.  Let me look this up.  Probably 1981.

1983 to 1985.

Either he’s older than he’s letting on by a good four or five years or this is all made up bullshit.

“Maybe Scooby Doo.”

Well…I definitely watched Scooby Doo but was it on Saturday mornings?  I don’t think so.  Maybe on Sunday on some cable channel.  And the show was from the 1960s and 1970s, of course.

I know that this is petty but it’s totally baffling to me.  He must have watched Saturday morning cartoons.  Why can’t he name any?  

“I think a lot of it, when I was watching Saturday morning cartoons, was stuff from the 70s.”

No.  It wasn’t.  Other than Looney Tunes, which was a show that was broadcast for about 30 years by that point, there were no old cartoons being shown on network television on Saturday mornings.

A horntard suggests Superfriends.  I definitely watched this but it wasn’t a Saturday morning cartoon to my recollection.  I think it was on weekdays after school.

He says that he was watching Superfriends in 1983 and 1984.  He was literally three years old.  I mean, the dates are all agreed, right?  Mike was born in 1980.  Right?  He’s not disputing that, is he?  

So he wants us to believe that he has memories of watching Superfriends, on Saturday mornings, when he was three years old.  

Why not name cartoons from when you were actually old enough to be able to form memories?  There were loads of them.  I gave a list already.  

Yeah, then he says, “I was probably 3 or 4 years old.”

It’s ridiculous.  Wasn’t he watching cartoons when he was eight years old, for example?   Name some of them.

Anyway, I think that I’ve made my point.  There’s another six hours of this stream.  I’ll put it on my to do list.  But now I’m going to watch my favourite childhood cartoon: Crusader Rabbit.
