The latter makes sense. His sexual role in the bedroom does not.
Are you arguing for the sake of arguing, or do you really not see the connection I'm trying to make here? I don't want to make this vulgar/gross, but if you'd like me to illustrate my point I'd be more than happy to.
Some people are dense, or they want to argue for the sake of arguing, or be offended for the sake of being offended.

I'll be the gross one. Let's just say he's not going to eat spicy food before a romp in the bedroom because it'll make taking it up the poop shoot painful. That's a painful enough activity without outside influences making it worse, capisce? My favorite porn star says when she knows she's doing an anal shoot she eats little and does enemas. Another porn star my friend used to photograph said she uses an empty 20oz coke bottle to "warm up." Hey man, whatever works. *shrug*

I understood that comment the same way as FAKEBLOOD and everyone else seems to understand it. For the record, I'm bi but fairly new to all this, so it's been enlightening, haha.

I checked the Kickstarter, and Joey's at $85,448. He has 19 days to go, so that works out to an average of $766 per day if he wants to see this funded. Taking out the obscenely large donations (>= 1,000) his daily average has been $4222.55 so far. I don't think he made that much today, though. Kind of makes me wish I would have graphed this, so I could estimate whether he'll make it or not.

There's no doubt in my mind he'll make it to $100,000. I just hope the Kickstarter has something in place where they check before the pledge period is over to make sure those who bid large amounts are legitimate. I'm almost tempted to bid $8k to see what happens...I won't though ;) .

Honestly, if he did a live stream every week until it's over he would hit well over $100,000. That's when Luke got most of his pledges, when he was doing a live stream.

I'm currently 3 minutes in and I'm just.. ugh.
They've already shot each other.
Also, from his vlog, we saw that Stacy was setting up her lan world and all that in the living room, or dining room or whatever, but Joey's sitting in his bedroom. Are they actually in different parts of the house, skype calling?

I'm baaaaack. Due to internet-related troubles (I blame the poor university student lifestyle), it felt like I had an involuntary, month-long psychiatric hold, where they tried to cure my YouTube addiction.

Speaking of gay reparative therapy, how is Joey Graceffa doing?

Bingo! (As if proof is even needed anymore).

Funniest post from the 37 pages, because it's so true.
FAKEBLOOD wrote:This whole Kickstarter debacle brings to mind something that was said by Willam Belli (about Joey in a gay bathhouse) in one of his Beatdown videos -- "You're one of those guys that only wants to pay for a locker even though you want a room." How true. He wants more, but more comes at a price, and he is not willing to pay that price himself.
This is a bang-on analysis, as usual.

Co-signed.

Aside: With all due respect, I have been in complete agreement with the Joey Graceffa discussion, until I got to the blackface apologists. Instead of arguing the deep historical significance of blackface in Western culture, I am going to keep my statements to Joey: Everyone who says (1) Joey's blackface is "off-topic," or (2) Joey's blackface isn't racist because he doesn't know better, is actually doing Joey a disservice. On GG, we have rarely given Joey a pass to make statements borne out of ignorance (e.g. his ignorant/dangerous statements about catching AIDS on the prayer box, and his idiotic/untrue statements about nutrition, etc.). Similarly, ignorance does not preclude racism. Furthermore, Joey is not a racist, insofar that he does not overtly/deliberately discriminate. But to think this is the only "racism" is misguided. Joey was acting in ignorance of the historical significance of blackface, and I think we are allowed to take defence to his statements. Does he know what he is doing could be perceived as defensive? Almost certainly not. We're dealing with a dolt. But if someone with 1 million subscribers can't serve as a teachable moment, then there is never a right time to learn about one's flagrant ignorance, and we might as well give up on Joey altogether. Every time he says something stupid, we always chalk it up to his namesake ignorance. But at what point does ignorance become woeful?
bloodymarysmith wrote:Ugh. It seems like he's trying to corrupt Connor in his new video. Talking down to him about how he remembers when he used to eat candy, go to college, and try to keep his channel PG...
And there we have it! We've gone full-circle. Joey Graceffa trying to convert Connor Franta into becoming a weight-obsessed, sexualized, college-dropout is the epitome of what Joey's channel has become: "24/7 Nutrition. The Male Body. Gay For Pay. Is He; Isn't He? College Sucks. Learning is Stupid. I Take Defence to Your Criticisms. Now Give Me $100,000." Joey Graceffa is a nutshell.

Has anyone else seen his newest hungercraft? I am so annoyed by those moderators playing music. Anyways, did anyone see Brandin throw his enderpearl? I rewatched it a couple of times but I didn't see it at all. :/

I think it's quite sickening just how easy he has it. 100k is an extreme amount of money, people are struggling and working themselves to the bone for pennies and this tosser has creamed thousands by producing a very unprofessional kickstarter that doesn't even give a break down of costs/schedule and producing idiotic videos from the comfort of his home.

It's really sad that all he will take away from this is that he ~proved his haters wrong~ and in the future, if he needs more money, all he has to do is ask.

Stacy uploaded a small video where those damn annoying moderators just HAD to pop in with some ghast sounds and what not. Ugh what is the point even.

I'm so effing done with him. A whole video on the new clothes he bought. Why buy clothes at this time when you say that you have no money for your project, but you have bought clothes. Really, why can't those little minions see, that they are taken advantage off.

I don't like hauls in general so I didn't bother seeing it. Did I miss anything?

I'm still rolling my eyes at the comment a few pages back that Joey shops at "discount" stores like Topman/ASOS. Someone who claims All Saints and Topman to be her "top" stores isn't pressed for money. So irritating.

He looks RIDICULOUS with that blue tank top from Urban Outfitters (also not a ~budget~ store).

Nope, just the regular stripes, tanktops and blouses

Joey's "NEW CLOTHING HAUL!" video is beyond ridiculous.

(Edit: Haha, I just came to post the exact same screenshot as pie).

THAT IS THE UGLIEST FREAKING BLOUSE* I'VE EVER SEEN. (*deliberate word choice; it hangs terribly).

And the shorts are just too much. The whole video was one big parade of awkwardness.

That tanktop is going to give people headaches. Why would someone buy that.

Idk what the discount stores in the US, but in NL we have Primarkt, Pull&Bear and like H&M's why don't he shop at H&M ? I think that is one of the affordable and good clothing stores. Tanktops that looks good for 7 dollars I think at H&M and he buys a 25 dollar headache giving tanktop at J. Crew smh.

But seriously it really does look like a dress when he's showing it.

Towards the end he said something like "this shirt is not my style but David made me buy it." Was he referring to David Camarena or some random fuckbuddy of his?

Also, I liked the shorts.

100k is more than most people working full time jobs make in an entire year. I can't even wrap my head around the fact that Joey has acquired it off having a pretty face. Because, honestly, I feel like that's what all of his success boils down to.
