    Hey everyone! To those who weren’t already subbed, please do so! I’m planning on releasing another clips video of the most recent Game Changer episode tomorrow (with a whole lot more effort put in. This was kinda hastily made just to get the idea of this video out, and because I love Raph). To those of you who were subbed already, don’t worry about the new videos I release getting deleted. Even if I stop making videos at some point, everything I make will still be up on my channel. Like, comment, and subscribe!

      I loved how outraged Jess(the whole ep really) got at his first price guess, arguing that price efficient ones that do their job exists! The sooner we stop shaming masturbation as a whole species, the sooner we get more price efficient vibrators y'all!
      ngl, my first one, was not cheap, and it was at a friends house as if it was a Tupperware party, but for vibrators, where we all took turns going into a separate room to make our purchase private.

      All strategy dies when you get a taste of victory. The endorphin rush of betting all your points and doubling what you have is too addictive for anyone to resist, success breeds cocky arrogance and will nearly always construct the downfall of any successful gambler.

      Normally I’d refrain from correcting your grammar further, but since you’re a linguistics major (and corrected my end card) I feel compelled to do such. The “U” in “underlyingly” should be capitalized, as that’s the first letter of the sentence. The “E” in “English” should also be capitalized, as it’s a proper now. There should be a comma before “actually.” And, finally, there should be a punctuation mark at the end of that sentence.
