I think what gets me is Arins earnest desperation, it reminds me very much of how he acted in House Party where he gets pinhole vision when completing tasks and as a result ends up making mistakes which of course is always funny. Ross and Dan co-hosted the show together, and on July 9th 2013 Arin was introduced on the show during their playthrough of, to act as another co-host as Dan was increasingly busy with both his Game Grumps schedule, and working on Ninja Sex Party and.

Those kind of inconsistencies led me to believe they have a team of editors they don't have regular contact with, and different people edit different episodes leading to slight differences in editing styles. Ive stopped watching and just listen to the videos now because its annoying when I notice. Endlessly white knight for them is pointless since they don't give two fucks about you. I will admit that between the enormous cast of characters, the numerous jokes and references they stop to make and the overall structure of the plot which is quite repetitive at times their progress is quite slow, which of course can be quite frustrating but I found that my interest was maintained throughout nonetheless. He probably got a bunch of shit but its shouldve been expected since there was the Bieber precedent. Ask yourself: are you really okay with Arin letting a man who constantly hounded a boy from the age of 13 for nudes continue to work for him, to the point of downvoting/reporting any post that brings it up? says u/marx_is_secret_santa.
