Oh, why are the Sarkeesian Effect dudes so endlessly hilarious? It almost makes me want to donate to their Patreon.
I know I’ve been posting a lot of videos lately, but, come on, this one from hbomberguy is pretty good.

And he can’t even pronounce it properly. I wonder if he actually thinks it’s “in mass”.
I know, right? When I saw the third room and the third appearance of the fucking skull all I could think of was “he’s gonna lose it, he’s gonna lose it!” And he did. And I couldn’t help but laugh with him.
Few things measure up to laughing heartily at a couple of self-important assholes together with funny, witty people. Which is, coincidentally, why I love reading this here blog.
Great pick, David. Well worth the watch.
The Skullkeesian Effect.
I wonder if Owen has a remote control for his cam. There is no way he actually gets up off the couch to turn it on.
Not on the agenda: Davis Aurini’s ‘Are we the baddies?’ moment.
He might not be moving them around if the skulls are from the local Halloween shop.
Perfect! 😀
We actually have a skull on a shelf as a sort of Hamlet-esque/memento mori thing in our house. But moving it around to be in shots for some kind of gravitas… while also having Sims open on your desktop……… priceless.
@Xanthë – That’s true. You know he could mix it up a little and show two skulls in one room. Or three on top of his bed mantle. Hell why not make a game of it. He should move the skull around and see if his audience can spot it somewhere. Where’s the skull!
Maybe the skull is self replicating. Anton Levey Jr’s house is just the first stop on its way to total world domination. I’m expecting to walk into my bedroom and see that a skull has appeared on the nightstand.
A guaranteed TWO empty skulls in every shot!
“I was going to make a rebuttal, but all you can really do is laugh” : the only sane conclusion anyone exposed to more than 5 minutes of these guys can come to.
Also the skull. I imagine it’s following him like a pet, which is somehow less ridiculous than him moving it to be in every shot.
Oh thank you, thank you for posting this… I freaked out my neighbors with the volume of my laughter. I hope to inject that whispered catchphrase into my conversations at least (fifteen thousand dollars) once a day.
Oh, hell…just pissed my knickers!
David, you are paying my laundry bill, duuuude!
$15,000 dollars!!!!
Pleeeaaasee!!! Make it stop!
Wow. Most of the laughter and fist table banging did not post. Anyway, all of my previous post contained gales of laughter, which explains the knickers.
I really shouldn’t be laughing this hard in the office!
As for the skulls: maybe someone is gaslighting Aurini? He walks into the kitchen, and he’s like “wait. Wasn’t that… wasn’t that in the bedroom last night?”
Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear to be working. Try harder, Amelie!
I want to know what Aurini keeps in his little belt pocketses. Undoubtedly something cooool.
I figured he bought multiple skulls from a bargain bin and distributed them all over his house.
The thought of him owning only one skull and moving it from room to room for videos, carefully calculating its position for each shot, amuses me that much more though.
“the feminists have dropped Davis in a forest and he doesn’t want to get dirt on his turtleneck”
This video is beautiful. Thank you, David, for improving my Monday.
I love this video so much.
And yet, he couldn’t figure out he out to take the pizza box out of the shot in the Teaser. The red bull and coffee cup are explained, though. Cool people ingest substances CONSTANTLY while on film. Cigarettes, whiskey, coffee, red bull. As long as something is going into your mouth, then whatever you’re saying is Very Important. Um, wait, that doesn’t sound right at all…
Spell components, obviously. But they’re a hassle. You have to try keeping a cricket alive if you want to cast a sleep spell; and the ability to cast fireball doesn’t justify getting all whiffy from keeping a mixture of bat guano and sulphur on your person. I mean, there are very few women who are prepared to go to bed with you when you smell like that.
Or, y’know, so I am told. ::shifty eyes::
Oh, and don’t mess up and keep said live cricket in the same pouch as the live spider you need for spider climb.
My laughter scared the cats. I tried explaining it to them but they don’t understand. Now I have confused and frightened cats. THANKS OBAMA.
Maybe the Precioussss? Must be the PRECIOUSSSSSSS!!!!!!! We wants it, yessss, we does!
