Celebrating Five Years of Blogging

I don’t know how long it’s been. Four or five years. That Pac-Land video of Erin’s really made an impact. How could somebody making videos about video games possibly know so little about them?

Anyway, the blog is no longer a priority for me. None of this is.

But I’ve read the comments here and on Reddit. I appreciate the kind words.

If people want a place to talk about Newt and other Z-list YouTubers, I can open the blog up for other writers. The blog attracted intelligent people. Any of the regular commentators should be able to write articles. The format is straight forward. Or do your own thing.

It would be an opportunity to widen the scope of discussion. People sometimes say ‘You should write about (whoever)’ or ‘You should write about the singularity’, so here’s your chance. Dust off that singularity short story that you’ve been working on.

You don’t have to write every day. As much or as little as you want. If a few people want to do this, that would be great. I just have to add you as admins to the site.

I’ll continue to pay for the site.

So if anyone is interested, just leave a comment along with your email address. I won’t approve the comments so your email address won’t be seen by anyone. It’s just so I know who to add. You need an email address to be added as an admin.

If nobody is interested, that will be it for the blog. Download all 1400 articles for your personal archive.

It’s been fun. As I’ve always tried to make clear, despite my criticisms, I wish nothing but the best for Newt, Tony, Erin, Metz, Pam, Destiny, Bobdunga, Pelvic Gamer, Ali, Johanna, John, Chris, James, Mike, Mint, and whoever I’m forgetting. I hope these people find what they’re looking for. Find what they’re good at. Because for the vast majority of them, being a YouTube and/or Twitch streamer isn’t it.

  1. Appreciate all of the quality free entertainment over the years. Sorry to see you retire, but wish you the best in your endeavors.

  2. We’re glad you’re okay…some of us were fearing the worst…

    Thank you for sharing your dark humor and wit with us. You have a great talent for researching and writing, hopefully you don’t let that fall by the wayside. I will continue to read the blog randomly for a quick laugh even of there’s no new entries.

    You were much more than just a…idk what to call it “Cinemassacre world writer” it was all the other shit, tangential evidence and side stories, along with the brutal roasting that kept it entertaining.

    I wouldn’t have “followed” stupid Cinemassacre world shit if it hadn’t been for you, honestly. Where am I going to go now? TCT??? Pffft. If you’re retiring from it, so am I, honestly.

    Best of luck to you and your endeavors. Please somehow let us know if you start a new project or anything. ✌️

  3. It was an awesome ride! Thanks a lot for all the work. And yeah, I think this means that I will retire from the retro-youTube world altogether… What’s the point if there’s nobody to share a good rant.

    Just let me know if you ever start another project.

  4. Thanks for the years of blogging. It was great while it lasted, but nothing lasts forever. Good luck with whatever you do with your life.

  5. Hey man, I’m sad to see you go but hope that the future brings you happiness. I hope that whatever you’ve chosen to focus your time upon in the future are joyful endeavors both fulfilling and fun. I wish we’d gotten to know a bit more of each other but that wasn’t exactly the point of all this and I’m just a bit sentimental like that anyway, so…. Good luck, God speed and may the force always be with you. Take care, my grumpy brother. Much Luz⁷6

  6. Hey brother. I’m glad you’re ok and wish you the very best in all your future endeavors, whatever they may be. I know you always thought me a weirdo for showing awkward concern for your disposition in life and whatnot, but you just always remained an incredible conundrum to me and a riddle, forever left unsolved. If you’d like to add me so I can drop in from time to time and say something stupid, it would be pretty alright. It’s been interesting bud. All my best. – James, aka u/Ship_Adrift

    1. Two comments from you. I didn’t approve the first one because it’s your usual autistic, self-obsessed bullshit. You didn’t take the hint so you posted another one a month later.

      Other people have posted on the blog over the years. All kinds of people. Some people posted stuff that I didn’t agree with. Some people posted personal attacks on me. But it’s no problem. I got along with everyone.

      Not you. Why do you think that is? Can you do some self-reflection? If I get along with everyone but you, you must be doing something wrong. Not me.

      Read the room, asshole. Something catastrophic obviously happened so I stopped the blog. Everybody understood that except you. Everybody left gracious and respectful messages except you.

      You continued with your autistic ‘Oh, I’m such a nice guy. Why don’t you love me, Mr Grumpy Pants?’ BECAUSE YOU’RE AN ASSHOLE. Do you get it now? Framing it as you being a nice guy doesn’t work. You’re not a nice guy. You’re a complete and total asshole. You’re a tone-deaf, scummy, piece of shit who is totally self-absorbed.

      You live in an autistic haze where you’re the nice guy and I’m just some unreasonable asshole to you for no reason. No. Get it through your thick skull. YOU’RE 100% the asshole. I don’t want to talk to assholes. Nobody does. Fuck off with your stupid bullshit.
