@@BRBonGiediPrime I appreciate that. I've actually been able to find a really nice friend group in recent years so I don't feel nearly as annoying as I did when I was younger haha
It makes me really happy as an autistic person to see people embrace Damien so wholeheartedly and have this not impact his career but open up opportunities
@@al145The point is that there is ableist stigma against being autistic. Even if many autistic people stay exactly the same, they often get treated differently just by telling people they're autistic, because allistic people can't get ableist caricatures out of their head. OP is saying they're relieved that said stigma hasn't impacted him as much, and that he's been accepted (mostly by other autistic people).
They don’t use the word but him and falin are textbook autistic. Especially in how they both interact with the other characters. A lot of the mangaka’s work (ryuko Kui) has good autistic characters.
yall have no idea how happy it made me when i found out this silly guy and i both have the tism… i love seeing neurodivergent people succeed in the entertainment industry
We got the 'Tism 'Skism I saw someone tweet during the whole april fool debacle but someone I saw on trending went "Why are so many Smosh Fans Autistic, Ace, (1-2 other things)" and SOOOO many people QRT or replied saying they fit multiple of those boxes LMAO. I myself do but its so funny how that works
That complaint coming from people who are way more hostile about only seeing people identical to them in all media is always just amazing “Why do you like to see media that represents one or multiple of your traits?” Idk jeremy why are you the industry default protagonist face
I had no idea that Damien was autistic before this, but I smell neurodivergence like a bloodhound so I knew he was SOMEWHERE in that, love you Damien!!! ❤❤❤
There’s a bright light shining through the abhorrent lack of Damien content and it comes in the form of a half hour long video and for that I am so thankful🙏
I've only been watching Smosh for bout a month and idr when/why I started watching for only Damien now lmao but omg seeing how much he's grown over the years is awesome he's a wonderful person 🥹 But also I get that he's grown a lot but lately I noticed he's a lot more calmer now idk how to explain it but I hope he's doing okay mentally and what not 🥺
If part of his masking is being very bombastic (might be since he was a theater kid) and high energy, him being lower energy might just mean he’s more comfortable :)
Me hearing that for the first time really helped me, honestly. For a long time I've been the kind of guy who would just let myself be uncomfortable just to be nice to someone else. That kind of made me be like "sometimes I need to be done with an interaction, and that's okay"
I've suspected that I've had autism for years now and I'm finally in the process of getting tested. I'm demisexual and neurodivergent in other ways. Damien is really the only guy I've ever had a crush on.
Nah dude I do this ALL the time. When I saw this clip originally I was with Damien. How else am I going to end an interaction? I would like you to leave now. “Respectfully, Get out :) ” like skmksnj I asked my brother and he was like ye I just let you do that but its not “normal’ or whatever 😂 IT WORKS
I have the biggest crush on this man. I love his creativity and enthusiasm. His stories are long and super specific and he’s awkward but super funny. Exactly my brand of autism. I wish I had such accepting friends as the smosh crew though. I have 6 friends. But two of them live very far away (Switzerland and South Korea). And the other four I do not see very often because they are very busy with university and they are in different universities across the country. I thought I made some friends at university but they ended up bullying me, which I have to say, is not the first time people have tried, but this is the first time bullies succeeded at really really hurting me. I developed a panic disorder and I still get anxiety attacks now sometimes I hate it. I did not expect this comment to go in this direction while I was writing it buy oh well I really like watching Damien on Smosh because seeing him happy makes me think I can be happy too, and people can like me for who I am. He’s do just super cute and his voice is very hot to me. Annd he did the voiceover for my biggest anime crush Laios soo…
When he first joined smosh there was a reoccurring joke that he was Joven's younger clone they even had a few times where they finished each other's sentences it was weird
Them singing Sondheim actually sent me Sondheim musicals are one of my hyperfixation and now it’s overlapping with smosh?? another thing to add to my joy collection
Does ingel mean angel? he has triggered my trap card (language special interest) I love the animals slowly circling cuz its legit like a disney fever dream
A few months ago (I don’t remember in which video) Shayne and Damien revealed that they made a backup of Damien’s Stardew Valley world before filming that video, so it wasn’t actually a big deal that Shayne threw away that item.
That made the clip okay for me??? Before knowing that it made me think way less of Shayne bc it’s incredibly childish and strange to go “Ohoohoo what if I spoil your fun because it isn’t my exact fun!” Why do you think it’s funny to genuinely hurt people over even the smallest pleasures because people on the internet you don’t know would find it funny? Ur friends deserve better, man :-/
@@LucifersfursonaThey're childhood friends, learning that Shayne didn't actually do that to him makes me happy!! Don't fuck with an autistic person's games
The clip was always uncomfortable for me, thinking shayne actually ruined something hard to get in Damien’s game. Makes it a lot better/watchable, now knowing the context
@@Lucifersfursona yeah I agree. Stardew is also a favorite game of Shayne’s, so I always thought it odd that he did that. But now we have the explanation and it makes a lot more sense
woidd0311 also he doesnt even make that many compared to other cast members.. But you are probably a teenager who wants to make him look creepy cuz he is neurodivergent
@@VivienVarga-ki3sd HELP. IM NOT A TEEN BRO. i didn't know what his sexuality was. I'm also on the spectrum. But this video showed inappropriate jokes mostly that's why I asked /gen
I can't speak for all of the autistic community, but as an autistic person, I accept Damien with all of my heart ❤️
He'll be a good addition
I accept him too. Even if he wasn’t autistic, he plays laios in the dungeon meshi anime, so he’d be accepted for that alone.
We can line him up next to all the other autistic celebrities/influencers/etc.
@@xXAlexOrWhateverXxHOLY SHIT I DIDNT REALIZE THAT WAS HIM
@@xXAlexOrWhateverXx that was my first thought upon seeing the thumbnail! He voices my fave lad with the tism~
*tips fedora*
Ma’tism
Holy shit I'd rather be called a r- 😂😂😂😂😂
OMG YES
Omg I need to show my friends this
“I’m gonna be a famous internet boy” Yes. Yes you are, and we love you for it.
I'm absolutely stunned that there are people out there that don't find this human extremely endearing and fantastic.
same although I'm so autistic most people think I'm annoying so I'm not really the greatest example
@@WishGender The best people are weirdos❤️ I'm sure you are lovely and amazing! The people who call you annoying are probably unbearable themselves.
@@BRBonGiediPrime I appreciate that. I've actually been able to find a really nice friend group in recent years so I don't feel nearly as annoying as I did when I was younger haha
real he's a solid 90% of the reason i became a smosh enjoyer 🙏
Damien's agonized "NO!" to "Is this funny?" on the Gatsby tweet is so damn funny
Ok but actually the "Gatsby, anyone?" tweet is unironically so funny lmaooooo.
The tweet itself and Damien’s reaction absolutely kill me
It is so good it's criminal 😂
seriously !!! i was watching the bit dying laughing and i couldnt believe that no one on the show found it funny JAHFHAHDHA
I literally quote it all the time
RIGHTTTT
It makes me really happy as an autistic person to see people embrace Damien so wholeheartedly and have this not impact his career but open up opportunities
He managed to do all the things he did before so it didn't damage him before, putting a label on it now won't damage him further

As a tism bearer myself we welcome him with open arms
22:08 im honestly obsessed with how well he sings "governmeeeeent"
Holy shit, yes, I really liked it, wth why was he so smooth
as an autistic dungeon meshi fan, i couldn't be more glad they got damien to play laios
best casting choice they couldve made
RIGHTTT when i heard his voice in the dub i WENT CRAZY
my one and only microcelebrity crush
Me and you both girl
Excuse me, microcelebrity? He's TV's, UA-cam and Netflix's Damien Haas, thank you very much.
Same!
2:13 absolutely took me out, the punchline is so clear yet the delivery and wording and tone are just chefs kiss
Damien being autistic makes him voicing Laios even better imo
Idk about canon but as an autistic person I read Laios as very much on the spectrum~
They don’t use the word but him and falin are textbook autistic. Especially in how they both interact with the other characters. A lot of the mangaka’s work (ryuko Kui) has good autistic characters.
If ur autistic and like a character then by the transient property they are autistic
yall have no idea how happy it made me when i found out this silly guy and i both have the tism… i love seeing neurodivergent people succeed in the entertainment industry
THE WAY I STARTED SMILING WHEN I REALIZED AND THEN SAID WORD FOR WORD 'auwh, haver of sex, dawg 😩'
Damien is one of my all time favorite Smosh members. He doesn't get enough credit.
I don't have TikTok, so thank you for introducing me to some clips. Most importantly the one with Damien and Thomas singing
Damien and Courtney have some of the best TikToks
Do you know what song they're singing?
@@vintagecringe tysm!
@@wantedwig They're singing "Agony" from the musical Into the woods
@@wantedwigAgony from Into The Woods
0:02 how does he manage to get his voice to sound that much like an old-timey cartoon car horn
as an autistic & a Dungeon Meshi fan myself, we adore Damien in this household
YEEEAAAAA!!
im in awe of his tism
haa, gaaaay
I’m so using this
We got the 'Tism 'Skism
I saw someone tweet during the whole april fool debacle but someone I saw on trending went "Why are so many Smosh Fans Autistic, Ace, (1-2 other things)" and SOOOO many people QRT or replied saying they fit multiple of those boxes LMAO. I myself do but its so funny how that works
I'd argue many Smosh fans are parasocial.
lol all my friends are either neurodivergent or queer in some way
That complaint coming from people who are way more hostile about only seeing people identical to them in all media is always just amazing
“Why do you like to see media that represents one or multiple of your traits?” Idk jeremy why are you the industry default protagonist face
55 burgers and 55 fries.
I think about “haver of sex dawg” at least every other day
4:44 my reaction whenever memories on FB brings up my posts from high school.
21:18
Their voices mesh so well
😭😭😭
This video is how I found out that Damien voices laius in the dungeon meshi dub, thats CRAZY! good for him!!
I had no idea that Damien was autistic before this, but I smell neurodivergence like a bloodhound so I knew he was SOMEWHERE in that, love you Damien!!! ❤❤❤
he's so love of my life coded
Gotta love Damien
2:02 NO HESITATION 😂
There’s a bright light shining through the abhorrent lack of Damien content and it comes in the form of a half hour long video and for that I am so thankful🙏
Damien is an icon i wanna be like him
From the moment I saw Damien I knew he was going to be one of my favourites. ❤️❤️❤️
My unobtainable hetero celebrity crush. We stan Damien Haas.
Asking Amanda if she knows about wattpad
WHAAT!

Kills me every time.
22:49 tism ACTIVATED
Damien Haas the 'tism
I love everything to do with neurodivergence (it just makes me so happy
10:55 THIS MADE ME CRY I WASNT EXPECTING THAT
I’ve always had a crush on him😩 also love how you added laios😭

damien on the smosh cast is a win for all the tism babies
shayne's reaction to randall's bits never fails to make me smile
I've suspected that I've had autism for years now and I'm finally in the process of getting tested. I'm demisexual and neurodivergent in other ways. Damien is really the only guy I've ever had a crush on.
Damien is amazing
I too love him so much thanks for making this compilation
I have ‘welp- get out’ thing so many times it’s not even funny. We were done talking, now leave me in peace!

19:14 im sorry but how perfect do their voices work together 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍.
Baby Damien looks a lot like Jovenshire
When he first joined smosh there was a reoccurring joke that he was Joven's younger clone they even had a few times where they finished each other's sentences it was weird
I wish more people were talking about the fire emblem three houses apron he wore to Mythical at @1:53
I'm always down for a little damien love
I was literally thinking about wanting to watch a video like this, and the algorithm has blessed me. thank you this is exactly what i needed rn lol
Them singing Sondheim actually sent me Sondheim musicals are one of my hyperfixation and now it’s overlapping with smosh?? another thing to add to my joy collection
8:30 that is my favorite part 🤣 besides every Damien appearance of course 🥰️
Me and damien have the same type of autism
Love damien haas
I relate to him so much
8:17 In the video where Damien and Tommy... sorry, Whoey and Beef Beef become truckers, Damien said that his bloodline ends with him.
2:43 this absolutely took me OUT
Ok but 5:10 is my humor sometimes i know im also skism and rizm with the tism but...its clever...
I found that sooo funny when I saw that episode, it's clever!!! But I'm also tism :((
100% acceptance from a possible carrier of the 'tism (i'm not sure but my autist pals think i do have a touch of it)
Does ingel mean angel? he has triggered my trap card (language special interest)
I love the animals slowly circling cuz its legit like a disney fever dream
There's a reason he was cast as Laios in Delicious in Dungeon! I'm loving him so much!
gen z being like 25% lgbtq shows us we're going in the right direction
22:17 also excuse me ? Damiens voice is just so beautiful 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰.
Learning that Damien is definitely not into men right after I discovered I am transmasc is gonna be my joker moment (/j)
God i miss the character at 0:01 he was so funny
what video is 26:41 from?
How to leave a party on the main channel
7:50 Can someone please help me find the video this is from or at least the name of the game?
