Well technically that video came out a little over a year ago so we can't say he necessarily hates us how we are today just what we were a year or so ago when he originally posted that video.

He's pretty much right. But that's why we have a separate area for that sort of thing and it seems to work well in the scheme of things. The rest of the board? Not serious at all and just here to waste some time and have fun.

Wait... when was this magical time when forums had productive discussions where people listened to each other's arguments? I certainly don't remember it. Was it before AOL carried newsgroups?

I can't watch the video, because my internet's really slow. But knowing the guy who makes Foamy, it's not very funny or clever. I'm sure he makes some good observations here and there, but I feel I could go the rest of my life without seeing another one of those dumbass videos.

Yeah, this has been my opinion of the guy ever since he did that video complaining that his fans only wanted to see Germaine naked and didn't care at all about her suicidal tendencies or the fact that she has resorted to adult films/prostitution to make rent... completely overlooking the fact that he himself had made a handful of quasi-pornographic flash games/videos starring her, or the fact that the only reason her life sucked so much is because HE was doing it to her. Why the fuck should they care about her when it's apparent she only exists as a means for him to make whatever point reinforces his personnel views? THEY aren't the ones exploiting her sexuality. THEY aren't the ones selling "I Love the Jiggly Butt" merchandise. THEY aren't the ones who've increased her bust every year.

Jonathan Ian Mathers, YOU are what is wrong with your flash series, not your fans.

Why no one posted a link to the infamous video?

Which infamous video? Just about anything with Germaine qualifies for that.

^You pretty much hit the nail on the head, Ash. Those are my feelings about him exactly. When I heard he was criticizing people for how they thought of Germaine and weren't understanding the depth of her character, I was dumbfounded. It's a ridiculous series. Give me a few minutes, and I could round up a huge list of people who do ranty/observational/crude humor far better than he does, without the annoying squeaky voice.

The video seems kind of hypocritical to me. Maybe that's the point though? I'm not all that familiar with foamy so maybe that's his thing.

Foamy is basically an avatar for Mathers any time he's doing a rant video. If it's a Germaine video, he's not and just plays the asshole.

I've been banned from forums before for having conflicting opinions.

Now, it was a very conservative Christian forum, so that might explain that. I mean, I exchanged a few posts with a girl who claimed (no, I am not exaggerating) that women should not peruse higher education, because it means that they are seeking a career for themselves and not trusting in God to provide a man to take care of them. Which is offensive to me on two points: that university educations are only useful if they land you a hot career, and that the proper function of a woman is to operate as an accessory to men.
