[@GameGrumps]

Steve was an amazing artist and friend to many others in our GGA community. Thank you for the animations and laughs you left with us, Steve. You will be greatly missed.

[@dacoolmaster9239]

R.I.P

[@InvaderTim7]

Rest in peace you absolute legend of a man. You gave us so many laughs. So many good moments. It truly is a shame how the good die first, but it just proves he was one of the best. We'll all miss you LemonyFresh. Sleep easy friend....

[@davidmc102]

RIP 🙏🏽

[@jortalus]

Had to come pay my respects on my favorite one of his animations. I will miss his style and creativity...RIP

RIP Steve

[@Frostiwars]

this has a similar energy to “does bruno mars is gay”

[@MangaGirl232]

I think it is from the same site

[@Pup_Pryde]

I believe they learned later that articles like this are written by algorithms, not people. So it makes sense that they sound the same.

[@Jayfive276]

Its "like" the other thing. Just say it's "like" the other thing. It's not hard.

[@enraversadi2903]

Rumor mill.

[@ALEJOwhatever]

*The rumor comes out*

[@haysee25]

“Dan is one man with a massive group of talents” That little smirk and nod is my favorite part

[@omegaxtrigun]

Haysee One might say he has a large girth of talents.

[@haysee25]

Tree Sapp Ok? Is it weird to say something I liked about the video?

[@agiar2000]

I also love how his neck extends a little bit around 0:50 when he says "America?"

[@haysee25]

Tree Sapp I hardly ever comment anything on KZbin. I genuinely like a little part of the video and express that and you come in here being rude.

[@haysee25]

Tree Sapp Ouchie my feewings. You didn’t mean that did you?

[@xXSpaceMexicanXx]

Im so happy that the "Direct" sexual orientation is finally being represented

[@KairuHakubi]

is that why it's taken me decades and I still haven't had any sex? too indirect?

[@CommanderKatelyn]

Game grumps say “directsexual rights”!

Ya it would have been hilarious if Arin was in the background bleeding out... and also laughing

[@Sockums]

Yeah, it's a missed opportunity

[@aidanod9541]

I wish he was a person in the crowd mocking Dan for giving wrong information

[@joeyb7408]

Or in the audience..being the only person oddly 3 rows up and slightly off left of center lol. Just to piss people off

[@fluttershy1126]

But he was operating the camera

[@MerchManDan]

"Dan is composed made of America and contains American descent."

[@pervyturtle2673]

I mis-heard that as "American Dissent"

[@JaneXemylixa]

Warning: May content American descent

[@APoliticalConfusionAndMess]

I heard “Dan is composed Native American”

[@slubls]

Israel: am I a joke to you

[@whateverworksmate.721]

There are at least 3 funny things about this sentence. That article is a work of art.

[@Alizudo]

And that he was a murderer at the age of 7.

[@AtlasBlizzard]

[@Mariorox1956]

Firedrake Smolder I know it was part of Mario Sunshine, but I can't remember which part.

[@Dark0neone]

The Qumran Caves bit is from Mario Sunshine but the story about him being a murderer and pooping himself at Dairy Queen is from one of the Mega Man's. 3 I think.

[@Jonoker73]

If Dan ever has a child and has a gender reveal party for said child, Ninja Gender Party is 100% the name of that event.

[@Foxy02016]

Jonoker and Brian is the MC

[@sphealingit222]

"Is it a boy or a girl?" "It's a ninja Run."

[@Mariorox1956]

Twist: the baby is a manticore.

[@liamfunnyman6965]

Better start making a G-Rated version of NSP in that case. ...the "S" standing for "Song" or something. Yeah, Ninja Song Party. Danny...uhhhh...Songsberg. And Ninja Brian is still Ninja Brian.

[@deviantartguy0]

Well, sex is another word for gender sometimes, but yeah I'd change it.

A Brief History of Arin *At age six, Arin was born without a face.*

[@Evanski]

And five chins

[@JohnnyD1986]

He also didn't come out of the womb drawing Mozart.

[@daborshy4089]

He later notably crapped himself at dairy queen

[@skyler6987]

And you can't forget one of the greatest triumphs of Arin's life, when Danny was 2 and Arin was 77, when Danny defecated nearly 14 times in a row and Arin was also there.

It absolutely sucks that I only learned of Lemony's death today. This, the Mark Zuckerberg and the Ringo animation are amongst my favorite GG animated videos. Rest in peace, Lemony Fresh.

RIP LemonyFresh. One of the best GG Animated artists to ever do it. Your art will continue to inspire countless GG fans and independent artists/animators for years to come :)

[@mmgmagic]

They clearly forgot the most important part of Dan's history. When he was 2, he and his 77 year old friend, Arin Hanson, went to a Dairy Queen where he proceeded to shit himself.

[@cutecats532]

I thought this was going to be about the caves again

[@Shadamyfan-rs8xc]

17 times. At a dairy queen.

[@SFTMKW]

he was also a murderer at the time

[@AtlasBlizzard]

In Kansas in the 40s, no less.

And he dug the Qumran caves
