Re: Markiplier - Part 8
People commenting whether if he was marrying Jack or not. Give it a fucking rest.I read through the comments and there was someone wondering if it was actually his wedding....if he pulled that off I'd give him an Oscar....
Sean has a girlfriend.
Mark is straight.
I know people ship them in all good fun but I see people who are genuinely upset that they aren't together and it worries me.
IS THIS EASY MODE

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
While I won't deny that Mark looks very handsome in a suit, in my personal taste, his dyed hair kinda clashed with the grey suit. Maybe if he had used a black suit instead or had his tie and handkerchief red it would look a lot nicer. But otherwise it looks kinda weird to me.Striker693 wrote:Oh man, could you imagine the the fallout... there would be a tidal wave of salty fan tears!Screenid wrote:Have you guys seen Mark picture on facebook?

Not sure where anyone could get the idea that Mark is getting married just because he's wearing a suit, but I think if that was the case, a certain someone from AZ would be gushing all over the internet and taking selfies in her wedding dress.
And it definitely ain't Jack because he's currently in TX probably stressing out over hosting the SXSW Gaming Awards tonight. Plus the obvious fact that Jack is happily living with his gf and Mark is basically a single father of KWP and Chica.
But hopefully he has a nice time and congrats to the happy couple.
Unfortunately the bigger his channel gets and the more crazy fangirls he attracts, the less likely he will ever get to have a livestream that's less than 1000 viewers with a chat that's actually readable. Unless he really does pull a stupid ass stunt like put in a clip of him masturbating in a video (though idk if it will be that the fans would be disgusted or thrilled) then he's never gonna get any peace until he retires from Youtube and leaves the public eye.Striker693 wrote: It probably didn't even occur to him that it would be unfair on those who missed it.

Imagine if Mark got secretly married. It'll be World War 3.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
People are already losing their minds over that suit alone. I only briefly visited tumblr but I bet there must be Septiplier photoshops with that suit in there somewhere. I never understood the whole suit thing a lot of people seem to have...I know it's a fetish for some and I'm not judging, but I really just don't get it. It looks almost unnatural on him because he's always shown a preference in his work for a T-shirt or hoodie and casual/lack of pants. But either way I hope he enjoyed his time at the wedding.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
Well he had a picture of Tyler at his table making silly faces, so hopefully he managed to entertain themselves as best you can at a wedding. Especially since Mark can't drink any alcohol.kei wrote:People are already losing their minds over that suit alone.

There is something about a well-dressed man, but people do take it too far. I even saw someone taking that picture and making a 50 Shades of Grey reference. So you want to associate Mark with an abusive BDSM businessman? I thought Tumblr collectively hated that book/movie? Why would you want to paint Mark in that same light?

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
Speaking of suits, Jack put up a picture of him getting ready for hosting the SXSW Gaming Awards and already the Septiplier group is having a field day putting both his and Mark's picture side by side.

Tumblr, I get that Septiplier is a thing. It was funny, at first. It probably would still be funny if the more serious-minded shippers didn't run it into the fucking ground. Hell, even Mark and Jack get that it's a thing, as if it wasn't being thrown at them in every way possible to the point they can't avoid seeing it. But somewhere in the distant past, Tumblr got the idea that "just keep it PG-13 or under" translates into modern English as "yes, please write and draw the two of us in every position imaginable for the insatiable pleasure of your pubescent fantasies." So now, even two people wearing suits on the same day for entirely different reasons becomes more Septiplier fodder.
I can hear the hardcore Septiplier shippers calling out in indignation "They should have thought of that before putting on the suits!" Yes, they should have. Fuck, they probably did think of it. And the fact they even had to, highlights the whole problem in that scenario.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
Ugh.
It seems you can't even reason with these guys either, they will just defend themselves, saying "It's just a joke hurr dur!" "OMG YOU HAVE NO SENSE OF HUMOR!"
1.Not all jokes are good jokes.
2. Oh-but I do have a sense of humor! I just don't find the pairing of two straight guys together funny, esp. when one is in a relationship already.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
I just came from Tumblr and honestly, I'm horrified. I wanted to reblog the photos of both Mark and Jack in suits, cause hey, I follow both of them and their photos side by side please my aesthetics. However, I wasn't able to find a single one post without any lewd or "OHMAAAGAAWD" captions. Not. A single. One.
And then I saw the 50SOG manips.
I felt so uneasy about the general tone going on in the tags that I had to log off without finding and reblogging what I wanted. This is upsetting, and even terrifying to some degree.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
I think the scariest thing about the super obsessive Septiplier shippers is that they've convinced themselves that Mark and Jack are secretly in love/destined to be together romantically despite the fact that both men have made it abundantly clear and openly stated that they are 100% straight and find the pairing creepy/concerning.
I can't even begin to fathom how someone can work themselves into such a fanatic state over two real-life people that they completely delude themselves into believing this "ship" is real despite evidence to the contrary. Bizarre.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
Did any of the other ships involving Mark ever reach these levels? I don't recall it ever getting this aggressively pushed (or this aggressively sexual) during the Markimash/Minxplier/*insert other Mark-ship here* days. The only other ship I've ever seen that's this loud is the Supernatural Destiel ship, but those are 2 very fictional characters.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
I thought it was funny that Mark tweeted Jack that a green tie would've made him look "legendary". How about a red tie on Mark with that suit? I guess he didn't want to be THAT legendary haha. It was definitely a huge contrast but he looked good nonetheless.M0nkeeButt2590 wrote: While I won't deny that Mark looks very handsome in a suit, in my personal taste, his dyed hair kinda clashed with the grey suit.

What makes you think he would marry her? that would be a Mess (pun intended).
At this point I expect fangirls to get wet even when he's showing some ankle but I don't blame them for that, it just bothers me how some cannot separate fiction from reality and how they shamelessly objectify him, and when they get objectified, they get their panties in a twist.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
Omg the Supernatural fandom! I was a huge fan and I followed many spn blogs and they can get craaaaazy, but at least the actors can have succesful charities and can brush the lewd comments aside because their work doesn't get affected and they have bodyguards etc.Striker693 wrote:Did any of the other ships involving Mark ever reach these levels?

Better make your own post than waiting for the "community" it's sad, really.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
You know, it's very bizarre, considering that Tumblr was on 50SOG's ass as soon as it was released. The was a huge uproar not only in the BDSM part of the community, but amongst the general tumblerinas as well. The thought that the book is trash and that a certain Mr. Suit is just a plain asshole was unanimous.alex_underwater wrote:Ugh.

Now why the heck and how in the world they started gushing over it as soon as the Mark-Grey comparison was created on the basis of the poor dude just wearing a suit?! Monkeee mentioned this before, and I totally agree. It's blind and hypocritical and makes me shudder violently. Hello double standards!

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
That was mainly a quip, but considering her obsession over him and the fact that he's still prevalent in her life despite the messy breakup (how else would he have known about those "rumors" when none of us have seen anything?) as well as the fact that girls are constantly after him just because he's famous, I wouldn't be surprised if he'd be stupid enough to settle thinking he can't find anyone else who wants him just because he's Markiplier. (even though she's a glorified fangirl herself) And I can think we all agree that they are far from good for each other.alex_underwater wrote:

But back on topic, it really is disturbing how these fans can't distinguish reality from fantasy. Have they been so coddled by their parents so much that they think Harry Potter is real and that video game characters actually feel oppressed? It's frightening to see that somehow trying to force two straight guys into a relationship is okay. What if it was something like forcing Tyler Oakley into a heterosexual relationship with MyHarto, both openly gay Youtubers? They'd be screaming homophobia because that would be going against their sexuality that they were born with and cannot be changed. Why is it different for two straight men?
Then again Tumblr seems to be the epicenter of hypocrisy, not just with 50 Shades of Grey or Septiplier. There is some disgusting shit on that site that even 4Chan would back off from.
Also a little update on the "hate blogs" in the Markiplier tag. It seems there was a long ass thread of fans misbehaving. Some fangirl got butthurt over getting called out on her Septiplier "inside joke" that was public and her friends white knighted for her something fierce. It ended up with one calling markiplieriscreepy Hitler, that's how vile the fandom has become.

Re: Markiplier - Part 8
Yeah I was watching that thread on Markiplitesarecreepy (MAP?) with an increasingly "WTF" vibe. The more those people were claiming it was just an inside joke and there was no reason for anyone to get upset, they were getting even more dramatic themselves in trying to discredit MAP. The only reason they would feel that threatened is if they realized there was some truth to MAP's words. I don't know where anyone got the idea that Mark and Jack tolerating the ship and doing things for fan service every now and then automatically means they ship themselves just as much. If anything it means Mark still thinks it's fucking hilarious, though the last time I ever remember him actively mentioning Septiplier in a humorous fashion was right before he moved in with Cyndago. Then the Daddy thing started after that, and now he's dealing with both on a daily basis.
The only times I hear him mention it now are when he's re-stating in livestreams that he's not gay or bi. And people still don't pay attention, considering the recent thread on Reddit that suggested his sexual humor must mean he's bi. Someone on MAP pointed out that there are legit, out and proud LGBT Youtubers who actually can be a vanguard for gay or bi fans, but it's like the NSFW Septiplier shippers aren't interested because they only want to turn Mark and Jack into a sexual fetish. Fuck, even that would probably be okay if they didn't expect the two of them to go along with it. I still can't understand that. Who enjoys being turned into a sexual object when they didn't join a porn-related industry or ask to be treated as such?
