      I haven’t ever thought less if addicts but I do not like how they try to get everyone to feel sorry for them. You made the choice to do the drug. No one forced you. I am a recovering opioids user and I’ve always been a believer in taking responsibility for my bad choices and actions. People at the meetings don’t like hearing what I have to say because they are just there looking for pitty. F that. Congrats to you for getting clean. One day at a time. God bless you.

      @@nickohler5707 they don’t try to get everyone to feel sorry for them. They made a mistake. We have all made mistakes. I feel bad for people who are struggling. No one is telling anyone else they have to feel bad. People don’t usually because drug addicts because they want to get high. They become addicts because of some underlying pain they are trying to escape. And we should all be able to relate to that in my opinion. When someone is down I feel bad for them. Unless they’re a murderer or rapist or something awful, I do not blame them for being addicted to drugs. You can judge them, like I judged by sister. It did a lot of good. She’s dead now. She’s ashes. She never hurt anyone. She got addicted to shit while being horrifically abused by a monstrous man. I was worried about people wanting sympathy. And she’s dead. So now I have sympathy. No one says that you have to.

      Yes, and our "friends" start to resent us the second we start making any progress. It's a crabs in a barrel thing. I had to move to a different apartment, trying to keep my address a secret, TWICE when I started cleaning up and applying for a job, because my "friends" would constantly come to my place and try to get me back into using stuff. One actually climbed a fire ladder to my window in the middle of the night because I wasn't answering the phone and the apartment building door downstairs was locked.

    I think a good term to describe the way Larry talks about you Pat would be "concern trolling". Which basically means that he lies and attacks your character under the guise that he's merely worried about you as a means of making him look like "the good guy" when instead his ulterior motive is much more dubious.

      Larry is a habitual liar and anyone that watches retro content would of seen his comments eveywhere on youtube making outlandish claims. Any game or system or anything, he has some outlandish story about how it screwed him over with a glitch or he got it imported before anyone else or just about anything to try and make himself look unique.
      My best example (as its easy to prove as a blatant lie) is when he claimed he locked himself in a room in resident evil code veronica because he forgot a key. Something thats literally impossible. I called him out on it being a lie in a reply to that comment, but he never responds of course.
      Eventually people got tired of seeing his comments on every single retro gaming video, upvoted by his fans, People realised its impossible for one person to have all these outlandishly unique gaming things happen to them so started calling him out in replies to his comments. Not once has he responded to a reply to a comment he made with some outlandish claim.
      Which in my eyes shows what he is doing, he's trying to spread his channel by commenting on everyone elses videos with 'unique' gaming stories (lies) about himself and getting it upvoted by his fans , giving his channel more visibility. I also think he uses multiple accounts to get his comment high up initially, but that bit is speculation.
      PS: im British same as larry, I can spot brit bullshitters so flippin easy. Larry's the guy in the playground that always tried to outdo you. If you said you got a pentium 1 pc he would say he has some prototype pentium 2 that isnt released yet. If you had a mega drive he had a snes and a mega drive. etc etc.

    That's a shame, I really like Larry's videos, but I suppose I don't know that much about him. I've exchanged a few comments with him here and there over the years and he always comes across as a nice guy, but again, I wasn't aware of his reputation or his involvement in ED. It's always disappointing when creators you like are at odds. Being completely honest, my opinion of you guys had previously been negative, probably owing substantially to the Diablo Immortal situation, but it was stupid and wrong of me to judge you without knowing anything about you. I've been listening to the podcast ever since Pat was involved in Karl Jobst's exposé of WATA and Heritage Auctions (I was also aware of Pat due to his collaborations with James Rolfe) and I'm happy to say that any bad impressions I had were completely wrong. You're people, complex, multifaceted people, and nobody should be defined by a single act or moment in time, especially when all of the information is third hand at best. Shamefully it's a trap I continue to fall into. I'll endeavour to do better.

Sad to see him being so stubborn about this and apparently attacking others too over real petty reasons.

    One thing that tends to get overlooked with the whole Larry/Dramatica connection is that he was a foundational figure in the Chris-chan "saga". Right from the early days he seemed to have a weird fixation on them, and was one of the first people to interview them on camera where they openly toyed with them for laughs. They also seemingly participated in digging up all the personal info they could find and shared it around to draw as much attention as possible. Now by all accounts CWC is a bizarre and indefensible person but it was obvious from very early on they were seriously mentally ill and seeing that sustained pile-on drive them increasingly unhinged was fucking gross. Larry's gleeful participation in the whole thing never sat right with me and was maybe the first sign he had a real vicious streak to his personality.
    I remember all the ED game reviewer stuff at the time it went down when Larry's "secret identities" were exposed right on ED itself. The idea that this one guy has been talking so much incredibly vicious shit, often about people he worked alongside, was jaw-dropping. Ofc in hindsight it all seems obvious, looking back you could clearly see any sections of these articles that mentioned Larry were often mildly critical or self-deprecating when they weren't just being openly positive about him. I remember once I noticed that style I started seeing it almost everywhere Larry was mentioned online that could be user-edited, funny that. Dude has been attempting to write his own history as far back as I've been aware of him.

      Larry is a habitual liar and anyone that watches retro content would of seen his comments eveywhere on youtube making outlandish claims. Any game or system or anything, he has some outlandish story about how it screwed him over with a glitch or he got it imported before anyone else or just about anything to try and make himself look unique.
      My best example (as its easy to prove as a blatant lie) is when he claimed he locked himself in a room in resident evil code veronica because he forgot a key. Something thats literally impossible. I called him out on it being a lie in a reply to that comment, but he never responds of course.
      Eventually people got tired of seeing his comments on every single retro gaming video, upvoted by his fans, People realised its impossible for one person to have all these outlandishly unique gaming things happen to them so started calling him out in replies to his comments. Not once has he responded to a reply to a comment he made with some outlandish claim.
      Which in my eyes shows what he is doing, he's trying to spread his channel by commenting on everyone elses videos with 'unique' gaming stories (lies) about himself and getting it upvoted by his fans , giving his channel more visibility. I also think he uses multiple accounts to get his comment high up initially, but that bit is speculation.
