PDPs fanbase is annoying, there's far worse content creators than him though.

The fanbase is annoying.
 

and incapable of identifying satire.

I really hope that he was completely serious here.

Go on the front page of the site.

I'm still confused. It seems to be mostly trash articles, but I can't exactly see their angle.

I wish, but money has a way of getting to peoples' heads. Anything above $100k and you'll do pretty much anything for money.

Specifically, I hope that he was serious that this was all a ploy for money, and that he wasn't actually even close to being the person he portrayed.

Just like that Cyanide and Happiness video, he's a 20 (?)-something adult male with the mental faculties thereof. He chooses to act like a 12-year-old boy to attract 12-year-old boys.

So yeah, it's a ploy.

Who's this PDP?

Letsplayer. His main gimmick when he started out is that he was all shock humor.

I HEAR he got better recently... but frankly there are only a few letsplayers I actually enjoy.

Basically the best way to describe PDP is he is what would happen if Fred was Rated R and did Letsplays. Except with none of the subtle social commentary.

Who's Fred?

The interview never happened AFAIK. P4R gaming is the games journalism equivalent to The Onion (now that the Penny Arcade Report shut down) that has humorous takes on real events and stuff that never happened.

Oh, that makes the whole thing so much clearer.

¡Éduquese!

Basically, the primordial YT moron-for-pay from whom all the others are descended.

I don't really dislike him mind you.

I've seen, thanks to my younger sister, interview with Fred and he seems as off put by his own success as others are... and to my knowledge he never sought out to be that popular.

It is one of those "I hate that it is so popular".

Also Kid? To my knowledge he was WAAAY into his Teens when he started it.

Alrighty.

Also, I knew that, I used kid as a more general term. Apologies.

Today, my computer has taken up the habit of not loading the desktop. It gets to where the desktop should be, but it's just a solid black background, no icons, and no start menu. Another unrelated window pops up like it normally does, but the desktop itself is just not there. I can ctrl+alt+del and restart, then everything comes back. After some searching, I still haven't the slightest idea why this is happening. It's becoming concerning. I really can't afford a new computer. Anyone else had a similar problem? I'm running windows 7.

Sounds like Norton Antivirus?
