Even more hatred! The hate must FLOW!

Man, I really hope that the people commenting on these videos aren't typical LRR fans, because if they are, well...er...yikes!


This amuses me greatly!
Feed me your hatred people! Muhahaha!

I'm pretty sure that "typical LRR fans" are most likely people who have watched more than one LRR sketch in their life (or in the case of some of these commenters, one minute of one LRR sketch) and thus are able to tell that this is a comedy sketch lampooning these smug elitist types instead of being one of them.

Give the typical LRR fan some credit, is what I'm trying to say here.

Reddit has found the video, and it's kind of glorious.

He obviously makes a good living, and he's obviously not making that living from writing comedy.
He is literally doing exactly that.

I almost wanna make a sock-puppet G+ account just to fulfill your aspiration. ;)


But yeah, the other shoe dropped...finally. :)

Good vid, good performance, good song.

Thank you. :)





Oh, and as much as I hate to be 'that guy', and burst all your bubbles regarding the 'rage comments'...but...

Image

Back when I hung out on /b/ regularly, you'd frequently see threads linking to someone's YT vid and suggesting we all go over and 'troll him with raeg'. :|


...but then, even if the 'hate' is actually a 'performance', does that invalidate the feelings you get from it? Just like a threat made against someone that is perceived as genuine still counts as Assault in many jurisdictions, so wouldn't this stuff still give you all genuine schadenfreude?

...and best of all, all these raeg posts - whether sincere or fabricated - are STILL creating buzz, and upping views for this vid!

There really IS "no such thing as bad publicity."

Oh man, this is fantastic. Reddit comments are basically the same, but the views keep going up. I hope you guys make enough on this to buy yourself at least one actual PS4. Heck, maybe when the PS5 comes out Sony will just send you five to make your lives easier.

This video is awesome, the response is awesome, this is just pure awesome. I hope you get 100,000+ views on this one, lets set some new records for getting there for LRR!

Yeah, don't you guys have any rights to get those videos people have stolen from you removed?

Just a quick skim of youtube finds stuff like this that people seem to be not only stealing from you, but somehow getting crazy mad hits...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xlAyxtEMFk 836k hits
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqMu6e5Dgtg 512k hits

Anyway, glad the new video is doing so well. Keep upvoting on reddit everyone! :)

A 9/9 for 4 mana with no drawback seems broken as hell.

Wow, you guys do seem to be having to deal with an awful lot of IP theft there. Are you letting them keep it up because it might link back to the site and get you more views and fans here, or do you just not care or something else? Is it just too difficult to deal with these issues?

We actually made use of YouTube's copyright malarky to take a couple of the more egregious ones down. It worked. Felt a little dirty but figured that if someone googles "Three PS3s" our video ought to be the first result.

Doing a quick google search i found this vid on a TON of different sites.
Some notable examples excluding those others have mentioned are,

meme site "know your meme"
http://knowyourmeme.com/videos/78913-playstation

PS4 site "PS4 Daily"
http://ps4daily.com/2013/12/this-guy-ha ... s4s-video/

Gaming news site "NG4"
http://n4g.com/news/1414426/loadingread ... -four-ps4s

Playstation fan site "Playstation universe"
http://www.psu.com/forums/showthread.ph ... -Four-PS4s

And weirdly enough news site "The Huffington post"

Good for you, and don't don't don't feel dirty about standing up for yourselves. These guys are stealing your product and making money off of it for themselves. Hundreds and thousands and in some cases even millions of hits? I know in internet dollars that's still just pizza money, buy darn it, that's YOUR pizza, and Paul's pizza, and Kathleen's pizza!

Also, think of all those hundreds of thousands of viewers who clicked on "OTHER VIDEOS BY THIS AUTHOR" and then DID NOT see the other great works of LRR. That's lost fans, some of whom could have been, well, fanatic.

Don't feel bad about stopping thieves, man.

I agree, you should't feel bad for stopping people from making money off your videos. Keep at it! stop as many as you can!
