Dudes who drive pickup trucks: easy to dunk on, but there is A LOT more going on here ---- some of it hilarious, some of it disturbing. But, strangely, in re...
I’m a big SUV and pickup truck dissenter, but fuck, this guy has got to be the most annoying person I ever heard speak. Does he have to slur the end of every sentence??!
It sounds like a slowed down version of a California Karen accent…
Anyhow, this is clearly why his channel is popular: he is is presenting logical arguments with arrogant cheeky remarks, and he sounds like an annoyed emo on xanax. So the people who don’t want trucks come for the logic and validation, while the truck fanbois come for trashing him (since he is plenty irritating) and peer validation.
It’s just the guy’s style. His whole thing is to be super dry, sarcastic, and sassy. He leans into it big time. I get that it might seem annoying if you aren’t used to his content, but it’s just his personal style. His videos are actually really good and often very informative since he has a background in city planning.
I definitely agree on the content, it is the presentation I was criticising; and furthermore my point wasn’t to criticise, but to highlight that his popularity is beyond what it would be with his content alone, since the presentation probably makes a lot of people cringe.
Basically, the number one rule of engagement is: do not leave anyone indifferent. Those who you can’t appeal to, irritate, or offend. And I believe he does that part better than most.
