    Not thrilled about the back to back videos pushing merch.

    I get that they’re “for a good cause” but it’s not why I watch the channel.

      It’s also more than 10x as expensive as normal powder per oz (plus shipping). At some point you have to ask yourself if this is really better than just getting normal good detergent, donating a few bucks, and not have to worry about the impact of shipping. Maybe if you’re having issues with your dishwasher, but probably not otherwise.

    I have no problem if he’s trying to sell things on his channel. As a matter of fact, trying to sort through the best, economical of something these days have become a nightmare. Try searching online for the ‘best’ of anything and you’re bombarded with so many choices. He’s done the heavy lifting for you already.

    Keep it up with the quality content and promoting good products!

    I use half of what is recommended with liquid dishwasher detergent with excellent results. With pods, I don’t have a choice. It’s forced overconsumption.

    42 minute long video on dishwashers is a hard sell, life is too short to spend that much time on this

    edit: a friend sent it to me after posting this and sure enough, I ended up watching nearly the whole thing lmao

    quietly eats words in the corner

    I really don’t like this guy. Long winded and talks a lot about things he doesn’t fully understand.

    He’s basically the guy that googles shit to answer questions on messageboards so he seems like hes got the big brain. His pinball video was a masterclass in bullshittery.

        I do pinball and arcade repair for a living. If you have any questions about EM pinball machines I’m more than happy to discuss it.

          Thanks but I’d rather watch a pleasant person who makes enjoyable videos, and since I’m not likely to ever need to repair them myself, I’ll just have to suffer the horrid misrepresentation.

          You have fun though.

            For sure. And you continue to be a smug asshole to people expressing their opinion as well. Maybe don’t take it so personally next time.

              Someone’s taking things personal, that’s for sure lol.

              In fact, this is a few levels of hilarity deep. You are the one being smug about your arcane knowledge, enough to bother declaring it to the world while putting down a pretty well liked and hard working YouTuber.

              Anyways, thanks for the laugh.
