They both have seen better days, but I’m not as quick to ignore a new Nerd video as I am to do so with NC.
I've never heard of this guy in my life and now I'm non-stop seeing memes about him. Did something happen with him recently?
Not sure which you are referring to, but they've both been around as creators on YouTube forever. They are both still actively making content. I'm not sure what memes you're seeing, but maybe you're just coming across communities with people that grew up watching this stuff more now. AVGN started in 2004 and Nostalgia Critic in 2007 so there's a long history out there.
The only thing i know him by is his absolutely awful take on “The Wall” by Pink Floyd.
From the Folding Ideas video essay about it.
"cringe. there's no other word for it, this makes me cringe. It's embarassing"
That essay really sums up well how i felt about that video, got a new channel to binge thank you.
Which one? Angry Video Game Nerd or The Nostalgia Critic?
Well now that you mention it, both!
Careful, he might have a samurai sword on him
Or some other mall ninja "gear"
Maybe comic book stores look really similar, but that reminds me of Graham Crackers in the Chicago loop.
