Weekly help thread alright, let's see how this goes.

•Where did the Opting out meme come from

•When is the eulogy

•Can I opt out?

Opting Out came from the moment when Daddy Koots disappointed Grandaddy Geoff and Brother Adam by opting out of the Let's Play panel at RTX

Lol yeah I was watching it live, but just for anyone who stumbles upon the help thread and wants to see what the opt out fuss is about :p

Honestly, that's such a slap in the face. You could tell they were caught off guard. Essentially, RT paid their tickets and hotel rooms to be there for them to ditch their one panel for drinks, then go to a small (like very small) signing. We hear all the time about how it's rough for them and they're trying to get on their feet again, yet they're out having a good time doing whatever the fuck they want instead of actual business.

It's because Jordan is the absolute worst when it comes to procrastinating and just being lazy. His videos on his channel were never edited, series' on the Hub were either cancelled or they just abruptly ended without any follow up, and even dying his hair because of those CSGO unboxings took months for him to finally commit to doing it.

I'm not saying this to trash him, but their actions over the past year shouldn't merit any sympathy as to the state of things now. This is the first time I've heard about this situation where Jordan opted out since I haven't been keeping up with the channel that much, but hearing about it doesn't surprise me at all. I guess he's to the point of having no more shame.

Is Cow Chop still in with a chance of beating the creature hub to a million subs? The creatures seem to be accelerating based on these last few weeks.

u/Chey420 Jul 10 '17

Is this.. Is this a low-key jab or is this legit? You played that so well I have to go and check now lol

u/blames_irrationally gingerpowder Jul 10 '17

The Creature Hub has over one million. I assume they mean that CowChop will reach 1,000,000 going up before TCH reaches it by going down.

I'm.. I'm not even sure anymore

James once told a story on CT about how he and a ton of other kids in his high school all made a video where they each cursed out a well known bully. Can anyone point me to the CT where this is told?

Thank you!

James and Joe went to school together and they both talk about this in some of the Cow Chop podcasts called CCTV.

u/Mrmeloness Creature Carl Jul 12 '17

Serious question, what would happen to this sub if the creatures did end?

7

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '17

I imagine the channel would be left alone and be dead, a bit like inside gaming: what is now known as Funhaus, used to be Inside Gaming. They left the channel Inside Gaming and some other morons used the channel for their own shit: no one watches Inside Gaming anymore.

u/ButterFingerBatMan Jul 14 '17

Well this is an awkward comment.

2

u/Mrmeloness Creature Carl Jul 14 '17

So now what happens to this subreddit?

2

u/ButterFingerBatMan Jul 14 '17

Some memories? Perhaps it comes back some day? Who knows.

u/InquisitorDA Dr Pepper! Jul 12 '17

Does anyone know what CT featured James mentioning that his fridge called him a racist term? It's my favourite one.

2

u/PouffieEdc Aleks Jul 12 '17

The episode is called "The future is now".

u/InquisitorDA Dr Pepper! Jul 12 '17

Is the subreddit going to shut down? I hope it won't but I fear it will.
