coning vs. planking

today's children stupider than previous generations: y/n

Other things described as 'the new planking': batmanning, stocking. All pretty stupid.

That cone-ing thing is the unfunniest shit Ive seen in a long time.

epic meal time is perhaps the worst youtube channel on youtube

What... the... shitttttt was that disgusting assault on the concept of food.

youtube culture is just so so bad

I had to watch the whole freakin' channel at a family reunion a few weeks ago, and the relatives were all aghast that i hadn't seen it (or heard of it) because i "spend a lot of time on the internet"

Why did that guy keep saying "sawce", it sounded really irritating.

because... look at them? there is actually nothing right about them.

culture is just so so bad

It looks like the kind of thing that would actually poison you eating one serve of. So disgusting.

you know how people are all upset at themselves in that scarlet johannsson thread for reposting pictures of her ass? i feel the same way about the epic food time thing, except i am pretty sure that NOBODY appreciates looking at a bunch of douchebags mispronouncing 'sauce' and gorging on vile filth.

He's horrible, but he'll die. So thats ok.

novelty lasagnas: generally dud

I appreciate epicmealtime for showing us what goes on the inside of an American frathouse during the daytime

pretty shocking, not a casket in sight!

nary an elephant walk to be seen

are they 'monetizing that ish' else they are probably spending a few hundred dollars a week giving themselves cancer &c with only a moral reward

The show has become extremely popular, receiving millions of views per episode, prompting Morenstein to quit his job as a teacher and Toth to quit his as a graphic designer.[1][21] Morenstein explained the popularity by saying, "In this day and age, I feel like there's a big emphasis on organic foods or a lot of negative media in regards to obesity and stuff like that. We are there eating this, and viewers are eating vicariously through us."

i hate wikipedia editors more than i hate culture itself

haha we should do a t/s wikipedia culture vs youtube culture

vs reddit vs b3ta

In this day and age, I feel like there's a big emphasis on organic foods or a lot of negative media in regards to obesity and stuff like that

LOL seriously, fuck this asshole.

fuck the dudes wearing mirrored aviators in the vid, you can't both be a youtube celeb AND protect your anonymity

trayce are you seriously mad at him because the lasagna he's produced with a hundred fastfood hamburgers is not a viable food item??? what's wrong with you? go watch futurama this shit is funny

although i won't really get behind grabbing ice cream cones from the top

are you seriously defending epicmealtime or just trolling trayce

it doesn't need defending.

I have amended my strong opinion

epic meal time is perhaps the worst youtube channel on youtube

I don't get why they swear on purpose a lot but also bleep the swearing?

it also seems like they eat about 5% of the food they actually make, which explains how they are still alive but also makes it even stupider when they're buying 100 hamburgers or w/e

what i dont get is why they look like that

i mean i know canada is behind and everything but still

those guys also have

a TV deal
representation at gersh/william morris
a cookbook in the works

I am so, so glad we can blame canada for this one

i'm not a devoted follower of fratboy youtube humor, but it's pretty funny and they've perfected the dumb thing that they're good at... but when i see people listing these weird problems with it, like pointing out that what they've created is not really edible is, it hardens my position. but if i have to explain that the bird sound effects that cover the swear words are funny to me, wellllllllllll, i look crazy.

it's not that they're not 'edible' it's that they're not actually eating it, they show like 5 seconds of clips of them 'eating it'. so instead they're just basically...showing that it can be made?? and that you can take a few bites of it? not that I'd be impressed if they finished it, but at least it would be true to their stupid philosophy.

do you ever feel like some people are fronting with this whole OMG I LOVE RIBS/BACON/CORNDOGS/FRIED CHICKEN shit nowadays

dylann if you think the edibility of the food is the only thing I'm protesting there then I don't know what to say to you.

Like, it is just Not Funny. At All.

trayce are you seriously mad at him because the lasagna he's produced with a hundred fastfood hamburgers is not a viable food item??? what's wrong with you? go watch futurama this shit is funny

lmao

i just sat through a bunch of coning videos and it was like yelling things at people from cars-level unfunny. so, i appreciate having a visceral reaction to epicmealtime but, to me, it's funny. it's not so much the stupid concepts as the writing, the editing. watch the one where they go to a sugar shack! it has funny one liners and familial warmth and provides a good introduction to traditional quebecois food. don't get so caught up in the dumb concept of making obscene food.

I don't think anybody itt is claiming that coning is funny

oh, i thought you guys were all super into it.

no, i was just comparing your reaction to epicmealtime to my reaction to videos of people grabbing ice cream cones by the ice cream. i appreciate not being into a guy making a three headed lamb (but i think it's kind of a different thing).

coning is dumb

coning is not "real"

and also

i think all of these are fucked up in the amount of food they waste / in the peoples' attitude toward food

and also

they seem like major tools and there is nothing "familial" about them, they are a bunch of douchy hosers.

i would like to plank tbh

pretty sure you have to be in high school or the first year of college to really get into any of this

what do you mean, coning isnt real

i mean it is just obnoxious and unoriginal fuckwittery, not a fad like hula hooping or cramming people into phone booths.

I keep trying to figure out how they aren't getting ice cream on the car interior

I mean, now you have ice cream all over your hand and it's uncomfortably cold. You're playing yourself.

when that guy inevitably crashes his car one day trying to drive one-handed with a melting pile of ice cream on his other hand, he better fucking upload the footage

it is just being a straight dick to low wage employees who are just trying to do their job, then posting their incredulity or anger on the internet for laffs. worst of all is when the employee reacts, and the idiot perps drive off cacking and saying 'bitch' or whatnot and acting offended.
