Well now I've heard everything. Do people really dislike intellectualism that much?
I like him, but he gets cunty a LOT of the time.
You're just Vince Carvel now.

WTF? Why some of you making Austin out to be this party pooper who goes on angry rants every time he speaks? He's a chill guy.
Yeah not sure I get it. Dude is always cordial.WTF? Why some of you making Austin out to be this party pooper who goes on angry rants every time he speaks? He's a chill guy.
The words that you are typing, are you actually reading them?You're really going overboard. I just said he's cunty a lot. That's all. You can like cunty people yet still recognize their cuntiness. And you can be chill and cunty.

This isn't footie GAFYes. It's not a big deal.

Calls someone cunty. Says other people are going overboard.
Austin is pretty cool, I have no idea what you are referring to. Seriously would be the last GB member I would refer to as that.
No Bakalar?
whats the point in living
You can be both! He just has a weenie attitude sometimes. I said I liked him. What more do you Austin stans want?
Austin is a fun jovial guy. Some people have a strange impression of him just because of the way he speaks. He suffers from the same issue that Alex and Tricky went through with some listeners.
Austin talking all smart on a giant bomb thing is like an episode of raw ending with John cena doing geometry
I think it's fair to point at the recent youtube fair use discussion and how, "they don't get it" when GB literally made a successful business out of doing precisely what he said they don't get and say he gets a little salty in unnecessary ways sometimes.
im sure he is but He's the only wrestler I know right now. The statement still standsJohn Cena is more intelligent than you'd think, pal.
Dan can't be a real person, at this point I'm sure he's the most elaborate prank ever.
roflI dunno, it just seems kinda shitty to handwave it and dismiss Dan instead of explaining it to him. It's a learning opportunity.
I think that at times too. He actually seems really intelligent when he speaks at times. So I can't believe it's not a tiny bit of an actDan can't be a real person, at this point I'm sure he's the most elaborate prank ever.
I've never once listened to the Premium Bombcast despite being a sub for over a year
The ads are hilarious. They're probably the only media outlet that does ads in a way that their community actually likes them

Same here. I actually never watch the premium videos either, just subbing to support them.
I've been following Austin since 2013 with the stream friends channel and he's just the best. He's strikes a great balance of being serious and critical with being jokey in the GB way. It's something the site needs in order to evolve and expand. He's also awesome with the improv comedy on the beastcast. Sidenote, I would love a hip hop podcast with Jeff and Austin.
Austin also seems to have a taste in games that's fairly unique amongst everyone else. No one else is talking about playing Paradox games or Satellite Reign. I imagine Vinny has some of the same taste just not nearly enough time.

Had he explained it, ther ewould be people here saying he's being condescending or "I don't listen to GB for this (i.e. being made to think)."
... That can't count as "salty." Having a disagreement, and not folding to the other side just to avoid potentially making people uncomfortable isn't "salty"
Even if it were, when has that happened elsewhere? Anytime I've seen people complain about Austin, it is always made up of general and vague points, as if they can't articulate why they are uncomfortable with what he says.
Then you have trash like the "cunty" idiocy above posted, and you're left with a notion that he's unfavorable floating around, but with absolutely nothing to back it up.
wat, some of the best content is premium only now.
you are missing out, there is alot of premium content that is worth listening to.I basically only listen to the bombcast and the E3 coverage.
It's a bit silly to argue about someone's personality--but it wasn't a disagreement so much as it was ignoring empirical evidence from the mouth of people that have literally been there and have had to deal with it. I'm seriously not going to comb through things Austin has posted on the internet to come up with evidence as to why someone gives a certain impression to some people. That's... creepy?
Also, I think you're latching onto a specific word that is used far more liberally in different parts of the world and in a far different context. Cunty is not the same sort of swear in the UK as it is in the US.
It should be said that I genuinely like Austin and his taste in games, but it's not difficult to see why people might have an impression that he's a bit highfalutin compared to the other folk.
