  Nah his biggest audience was FNAF kids.

    Sounds about right.

    I believe FNAF getting mega-popular was the precise moment when the scales tipped for me and I officially became old. I looked at it, and I decided that it’s just dumb and I can’t comprehend why the kids these days are so into it. I mean, I know the real draw is watching streamers or whoever freak out at all the jump scares and act ridiculous. But that’s just a pastime that doesn’t appeal to me in any form whatsoever. Just, get that kind of thing off my lawn.

    I did watch a ton of Game Theories videos, though.

      I wanna point out, recognizing something isn’t for you doesn’t make you old. Your refusal to recognize it as something someone else enjoys is where that boomer mentality comes in. That’s just a theory, a BOOMER theory

      Truly an internet staple

    I never played FNAF, but those were the only Game Theorist videos I really liked.

      He had a couple I enjoyed and actually bought the premise, but I’ll be damned if I could tell you what they were
