Everyone on my Facebook seems to love him but he’s highly fucking annoying Hmm
He must be a sodding nightmare to live with (despite the fact half his stuff is clearly very staged)

He giv s me the rage 😳

I agree, very contrived, boring nonsense. Really annoying that he keeps popping up on the Unilad feed, keep that shite to its own feed.

Steelesauce · 07/09/2018 11:23

Argh it's so staged and fake. The early videos are funny but now it's just annoying.

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 07/09/2018 11:31

Pleased it’s not just me!

The lunchbox one was funny

Now he just looks like an idiot, it’s so so fake it’s laughable...and not in the way he wants!

Yes!! And his wife’s stupid bloody faces she pulls. Get a life the pair of you.

Also was he given a dad of the year award recently? I genuinely suspected he just made that up for himself to win Grin

Anastassiabeaverhausen · 07/09/2018 11:33

Agree. Batdad is also no longer funny and everything is staged.
I fear that I Mom So Hard are going the same way.

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 07/09/2018 11:35

I was so annoyed he won that dad of the year award, he begged for votes for week apparently. Especially considering people like Simon Thomas were on the list.

Yes batdad also

I've met them both IRL- they came to my place of work and asked if it was OK to film. They were really lovely and polite, told us what they were planning to film etc. Ladbaby is a bit of an act but it's working so they're clearly clever people, even if it's not my thing.

He really is extraordinarily tall.

IfIWasABirdIdFlyIn2ACeilingFan · 07/09/2018 11:38

I wonder what makes perfectly nice people be absolute knob was part of an act.

IfIWasABirdIdFlyIn2ACeilingFan · 07/09/2018 11:38

Knobs as

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 07/09/2018 11:40

He may be a nice bloke but he comes across as an absolute prick in his videos

It says something when lovely, clever people have to dumb it down so much to get anywhere on SM in Britain. It’s quite depressing really.

Notquiteagandt · 07/09/2018 12:13

I still think the fish shoes /clown shoes thing was the funniest thing ever.

They are getting faker and faker but its all good fun.

Although I think now they are apoarently going to start charging to watch their videos is a bit barmy!!

Umm, you’d be very naive to think that wasn’t the plan all along!!

Notquiteagandt · 07/09/2018 12:42

I dont know of any other youtuber or blogger who charges you a subscription to watch their videos.

Call me nieve but ive genuinely never heard of it before. As they get so much from advertising etc

IfIWasABirdIdFlyIn2ACeilingFan · 07/09/2018 12:58

I don’t know. I just know that from the very first video I saw I knew thats what they were at. I think it was very obvious they were building a product and a following to sell to.

lackingimagination · 07/09/2018 13:09

It’s as if you’re being forced to watch it? If you don’t like it, don’t watch it. Scroll past. Problem solved.

IfIWasABirdIdFlyIn2ACeilingFan · 07/09/2018 13:10

Since when did prankster become a job anyway? I blame Dom Joly.

CrazyDaisy2018 · 07/09/2018 13:59

I saw them on an advert for eBay yesterday!! Shock

Jigglypuff85 · 19/09/2021 21:24

I don't see the appeal of it at all. Some of the jokes are not funny, and the obsession with silly sausage rolls! I bet his farts stink!

Timeisavirtue · 19/09/2021 22:29

Here’s an idea, don’t watch his videos, you must have watched enough to think he’s annoying, so just scroll on down...

Jigglypuff85 · 20/09/2021 22:02

I just watched 2 and I had enough.... so yes I don't watch them I am simply replying to the message on the original forum?

Quirrelsotherface · 20/09/2021 22:37

I posted something on here about them and received a barrage of 'theyre so great'. Still can't stand them. Her face and the dancing! All so contrived. Agree with a comment that kind of behaviour seems to be very popular with a lot of people. It's fucking depressing.

Jigglypuff85 · 20/09/2021 23:23

It is indeed a case of what people like :/. I wasn't even looking for it, it randomly came up on a feed on FB. With something about sausage rolls.... I saw 2 videos then said I didn't want to see anymore 🤣🤣.
