Not sure if it's been said yet, but fatboy's gonna get so assraped in prison. :lol Nah, he'll get a fine, restraining order and probation, probably. Probably first offense as an adult, and no one could convict that doughy little goof. PEACE.

I came into this thread expecting to read about him being arrested for Child Porn or something... I guess, this seems more fitting....

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.

You're pretty sure that you work at Boston University? Do you need to go check?
The girl whom he made the threat against doesn't go to BU. HE does, though.

ive been bi-polar all my life.
altho i dont KNOW, i dont think the guy could have actually pull the trigger on anybody.
it takes a special kind of person to do that.
but it really just takes a poor little depressed dude to SAY things like that.

it was hella stupid on his part to say things like that, especially using the VA killings to add a bit more shock value to the whole thing. if the guy said things like that, then the guy was obviously in a hell of a low.

i know how these go. things seem absolutely hopeless...you get "despair attacks" where maybe for the span of one nights, things looks like theyll never get better. you say things. you do things. you regret them. i pitty the poor ****er that he got mixed up with this VA mess. it wasnt alright of him to pull that shit, and i cant blame the girl for being freaked out and calling the cops. but oh boy, what bad timing.

also, most of you are all ****ing jerks.
imagine being a pudgy jewish kid with googley eyes and what seems like somekind of mild mental illness... imagine being ridiculed on the internet because you dared put together an earnest little review show. it has to SUCK to be this guy. suck HARD.

one of the bigger challenges of being bi-polar is damage control. or atleast trying not to say and do those things you KNOW you shouldnt do. but sometimes you cant help yourself, you **** up hardcore and you get in that kind of trouble.

When you put yourself out there, not everyone is going to be rational or agree with you, so if people are going to rip you, take it in the chin or get the **** out.

Poor girl......now everyone knows she slept with that guy :(

Just because he went out with her doesn't mean he got to bone her.

At least, I hope that's the case for her sake.

Sometimes people find their lives suck a little less when they stop obsessing over Nintendo games and lose weight.

I dont mean the site itself...the video still isn't live

I'm not trying to be an ass or anything... but it kinda goes without saying that if all of YouTube is down... there will probably be some difficulty viewing any content hosted on that site.

wow. the ending was so awkward

It got to the point where I just didnt want to talk to him anymore, so I started flipipng the questions around.

Fun fact: his hand shake was SO loose, felt like i was going to crush his girlish hands.

Um, that logic works for normally intelligent, mentally healthy and socially adept people. Andrew is very clearly none of those.

It's like making fun of a 5-year-old kid when he falls off his bike on his first time on it, shouting "shouldn't have gotten on it if you didn't know how to ride!" -- it's just not fair. The worst part is that people do realize that this kid is kinda "slow", but they still make awful fun of him just because they can. People suck.

I'll tell you, what impressed me about him is that although he clearly has absolutely no social skills and is as awkward as one can get, he seemed have have massive guts exposing himself to the world in the fashion that he did regardless. I mean, if my demeanor was like his, I certainly wouldn't be conducting interviews and videotaping myself. I credit him with that. But I wonder if he was aware of his awkwardness, or kind of oblivious to it.

What a horrible mess.

I never understood the following of GameLife.

Unfortunate, then, that it got the following it did and MTV decided to push it to the forefront...now we get to hear the parade of talking heads using this situation to make the violence/video game link.

Sigh.

I was taping that one, she was taping the other one... I have no idea why we thought dual cameras for the interview would be fun! But it was. I guess.

Lets just remember before we continue this thread any further that NOT getting help to those who are mentally ill and teasing them and ridiculing them is only going to make things worse.
