mindcracklove | The Doctor and the Dude make sand and go caving. EDITED: also, Orange Wool and some unrelated stuff.

Fun stuff!

And some really honest thoughts about balancing life and Youtube, and Doc confessing that his relationship with his girlfriend may be suffering due to his ridiculous video output.

Everyone always says they don't think Youtube will last forever. I hate to think about it, but since it's brought up, I wonder if it'll be just due to each LPer burning out one by one by not having a "normal" work/life balance. And that just makes me really sad. :(

On a lighter note, Doc mentions a well known FIFA 13 player with an American accent botching up European names and chuckles about it. Note to self: practice your pronunciation of everything just in case you ever get to talk soccer with Doc. (I actually once had a soccer-fan friend from the eastern part of Germany record herself saying the full names of the entire German National Team roster so I'd listen to it regularly to get pronunciations right and not make a fool of myself, so I pride myself on that. Lesser known Spanish/Italian/Portuguese/etc players though? Eeeeeeeeek.)

Orange Wool Tiiiiime

I want the fanfic where Matthew actually does go to Wales to be ~~Millbee's~~ Max's date to Phantom of the Opera. (~~...Do we even know Millbee's real name? /terrible~~ EDIT: I stand corrected.) EDIT EDIT:

mzrootbeer wrote it and it is adorable! :D

Darksiders: The Legend of Zelda, now Darker and Edgier.

Mehthane. Meethane. I've only ever used "naught" for zero in the sense of H₀ being read as "H-naught" in statistics, and I pronounce it how MC pronounces it.

Oh my god the public displays of affection from the villagers and then the sheep, so hilarious. Also Evil Melon Gundam Robot...of Fertility. OH GOD.

These boys dissolve in laughter over nothing and it's so excellent. I love them so much.

Also unrelated to anything, here's Joe Hills giving me images of him crossdressing. (There are other tweets from that day that expand on the image as well.) AUGH.

I may watch this a second time to catch the bits I missed while busy. I love seeing these two together.

I feel so bad for Doc sometimes. He works really hard, and his sub numbers are great, but the views (which = money) just don't go up at the same rate as the others. I don't know if it's the accent or some aspect of his personality that is keeping the views down, but something's not quite clicking for him the way he wants it to. At least he must be surrounded by good advice.

Millbee's name is Max, which I believe is short for Maxwell, but I'm not entirely sure if it's short for something or not at all.

Definitely will have to watch Orange Wooooool later, it sound incredible.

It was a cold December evening, and snow frolicked down from the skies in Wales. Max had eaten dinner and was sitting in comfortable chair, excited for tonight. In just a few minutes he would leave for a showing of his favorite musical, Phantom of the Opera. Stirring slightly he looked to the clock, it was early but he couldn't just sit here anymore. Standing Max headed out the door, locking it behind him.

At the theater he sat the second row back, twiddling his thumbs. Then out of the corner of his eye he spotted something orange. A man in a bright orange suit walked in, at first it seemed very odd. Suddenly everything clicked in his mind as the man approached Max. Way back in October while recording Orange Wool, MCgamer had promised to accompany him to this showing. "You told me not to show up on your doorstep you never said I couldn't come here." Matthew (MCgamer) said with a chuckle.

The entire show Max felt well, a lot of emotions. Someone, no not just someone. Matthew had come all the way to Wales just to see a musical with him. How was he supposed to react to this? When it was finished the two left to a bar. It was late, but it was also the first time they had ever met in person. They sat and talked for a bit before Matthew had to be heading back to the states.

Max drove home, already missing his friend. Exciting the warm car into the cold wind he noticed a familiar face on his doorstep. With a spray painted orange rose in had, and a slightly cold flushed face Matthew waited. "Since I was your date tonight, I have the right to demand a goodnight kiss."
