[@goldosprey]

This story proves that Michael is a nice guy underneath the Rage face. He was more worried about Lindsey and Gavin getting mugged

[@lukem5623]

+goldosprey Everyone has a nice personality. And also rage quit was very funny but it was his job to get mad at a game . : /

[@DeathBatBabe97]

goldosprey Lindsay has said that the rage is all real so you shouldn't piss him off but he's actually a really caring guy underneath all of that.

[@goldosprey]

I think I saw something that he was the angriest Teddy Bear. Especially with Iris

[@billstone5884]

anybody ever messes with Iris, and MOGAR WILL BE READY!

[@adams3627]

Nobody mugs Gavin except Michael

[@xspondeex]

Gavin- "Sometimes you gotta side with the lunatic, temporarily." This will save your life one day.

[@YellawayHD]

Actually kind of feel sorry for the guy in the story, clearly has schizophrenia or psychosis and needs help. Michael did pretty well handling him, making sure he wasn't a threat, keeping Lindsay away, acting normal and keeping him calm etc

[@domosheep991]

YellawayHD maybe he was just tripping balls

[@aaronthirkell3376]

yeah drugs is likely as well

[@CodeDarkBlue]

Yeah, I was kind of put off by how they jumped to the whole "lmao he might try to murder us" thing... I imagine psychosis is terrifying and he was just trying to get help. :(

[@kingscott172]

YellawayHD or he’s just tripping the fuck or lol

[@gundampeacekeeper]

CodeDarkBlue or he could’ve been an addict tripping balls who the fuck cares if they’re being insensitive this stranger is seeing people make a spaceship just call the cops and gtfo

[@fakos7]

"Aheh dude you know what I mean, it's like, fucking no bodies right, you know.." HAHAHAHAHA fucking hell I love this line

[@burgerwolfbrown735]

I wonder if he had stayed would he have seen the guys in handcuffs and the police trying handcuff the bodyless guy

[@friscolopter]

Michael knows how to handle crazy situations.

[@thebread9874]

I mean he is from Jersey

[@zombiefried2363]

@@thebread9874 Michael: *rips shirt off*

[@BLOODKINGbro]

​@@zombiefried2363brix wer shat

[@flynnhooley6160]

Do you think that the police went in and said nobodies here and then the crazy guy popped his head in and yelled "see I told you"!

[@Sojuwu8000]

God damn it barb

[@angelis5157]

it took me a sec hahaha

[@Richyman397]

Plot twist: 5 or 6 guys got high on every drug imaginable and were trying to make a space ship by robbing some apartment, and one of the guys chopped the head off of another guy thinking he was against the other guys

[@thebread9874]

Fucking PCP

[@Cal6009]

2:14 gave him the ocular patdown.

[@blintonhack4029]

what's that?

[@heyitsmarbles]

+Sam Lenny he sized him up. For like, weapons. Like you would when you actually pat people down

[@michaelbarney4060]

The untold part of that story: There really were people in that guy's apartment, he was just tripping balls at the time, making him think they were building a spaceship and that one had no body

[@GdoubleWB]

My "side with the lunatic" story came when I was walking along the Vancouver sea wall at Stanley Park and had to maintain a conversation with a guy that I found out was a methhead.

[@myahitt1247]

Just realized mine was with someone who I believe was a c0ke user. Unfortunately for me, I had just gotten out of a therapy session. The building was on a Main Street in a relatively busy yet smaller city, and I ran into a woman with a dog outside the building. I love dogs, so I asked if I could pet her. She said of course, then launched on a pretty homophobic rant about how there were two gay guys trying to take over her apartment while she was still living there. She kept making it seem like it was a bad thing they were gay, if they even existed lol. I just listened and knew that even if this crazy situation was actually happening, I would be stressed as well, so I tried my best to empathize then got the hell out of there. I should’ve turned around and gone back to therapy.

[@CodeDarkBlue]

Maybe he was schizophrenic or having drug-induced temporary psychosis? :( Either way, I hope he's okay now.

[@Peglegkickboxer]

@Daniel Kintigh something like that induced by smoking weed? What?

[@Mike_droptv]

@@Peglegkickboxer Sure thing, had that happen to friends and acquaintances on multiple occasions, where they got paranoid or really anxious, when they were hitting it too hard (sometimes paired with alcohol, though)

[@AlexaelVongola]

2:20 so that's what DIO was doing during battle tendency

[@jimmy-breeze]

is this a reference to the band Dio?

[@joshuakusuma5953]

+Magic Bagel The reference to a character whose name was a reference to the band.

[@crimson5pider]

He needed a couch spaceship to escape the ocean

[@edgyusername4191]

I would love to watch DIO: IN SPACE.

[@PridesPlight]

"No body. How you gonna run it?" It said no body not no legs

[@WispyKelp]

This will forever by on my top list of favourite rooster teeth stories 😂👌

[@Akatuski2000]

I swear someone should had animated Burnie Chloroform thing with Michael just slowly pulling out a rag

[@assassinforever19]

Love that Ray is being creepy here.

[@camerontrivett3808]

Ray isn't there? I'm confused

[@Astrndl]

The poster behind Michael

[@harelchen]

This is amazing! I'm so glad I found your channel!

[@emilywilliams1170]

Lindsey comes to the door,” What’s going on?” Michael,” Go get Crescent Rose!” 😂

[@SpooniestBard]

This is my favorite Animate Adventure Michael is hilarious.

[@kobegussman7591]

Michael is scared his neighbor is gonna kill him but before he dies he will eat at the same time 12 lava cakes a monster mac a giant gummy bear 12 mcribs then drink a bottle of barbecue sauce

[@RTRyles]

I was in the middle of class the first time I watched this podcast episode and I lost my shit in the middle of class. It was the best fucking thing ever.

[@Heavenlyhounds96]

I'm guessing the guy was like...what? Schizophrenic?

[@crowg7823]

Maybe, off his meds definitely

[@krakedkraniumproduktions2448]

eh. it's possible, although there are plenty of disorders that can cause delusions and hallucinations, I obviously can't say anything for certain, but from the story in sounds like the guy might have had a paranoid variant of something, although if it is hallucinations then they must have been kind of severe, in most cases it's just hearing things, not seeing straight up, full formed people. one thing I will say, is that while Michael did a good job dealing with the guy, keeping family and friends away while talking to the guy like nothing is wrong, from what's shown I don't think the guy would've done anything violent, that's the thing most people misunderstand about these kinds of mental illness, they people who suffer from them generally don't try to hurt people unless they aren't actually seeing the person as they really are, since the guy was talking to Michael as if he was just an ordinary person, I doubt he would've done anything dangerous.

[@Heavenlyhounds96]

calvin fair I don't think he saw fully-formed people cause the one guy had no body. :P

[@mayor4797]

His lips are so red Scratch that they all look like they're wearing lipstick

[@RangerHouston]

It's the cold beer causing an increased rush of blood to their lips.

[@zaithehedgewolf4587]

mayor his Baldy son lol

[@macey_n_rose6140]

One Of The Best Animated Adventures Episodes (For Me..And Other People XD )

[@Kieranclark224]

It sounds more like the guy was high to me than being just crazy

[@vanthursday]

Aliens!!!! I'm telling you!!! XD

[@Farthover]

This is a great idea

[@warmpond]

thanks for attaching the actual video.

[@christmashake8968]

I wonder how much Gavin shudders listening to this particular tidbit now, considering he and his wife's own close shave with a psycho a couple of years ago...:/

[@sparknazo]

How did that guy even find them

[@christmashake8968]

@@sparknazo If I remember right, the guy in question was an obsessed fan who’d been stalking the two of them online for years, in particular because of an apparent desire to be with Gavin. He was somehow able to weasel out their personal information and home address online, one thing led to another, and the police wound up finding the guy dead in their home from a self-inflicted gunshot wound while the two of them were hiding in the closet, terrified as hell. Pretty fucked up, all around. :(

[@sparknazo]

@@christmashake8968 so he was in love with Gavin? Or wanted to be his friend that badly

[@bloodwolfgaming9269]

@@sparknazo It was my impression, from what I heard was that he had a mega crush on Meg and was jealous that Gavin was with her or something like that. He managed to get their information/address and drove several hours to their home with a gun. He shot into one of the back windows or something along those lines, thankfully hitting no one (maybe he thought they were away or something) because he decided to wait in his vehicle in their driveway but ended up shooting himself in the head and killing himself by the time the police arrived on the scene.

[@jdniscool]

What is Michael's Wendy's story about?

[@heavenlyking8386]

Michaels aww fuck 😂

i wouldn’t of opened the door in the first place.

Yeah I thought it was pretty weird too 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@baldbeardedbassist]

homeboy was trippin balls

[@dumass5214]

imagine letting a guy on drugs call the cops on himself

[@Likian5]

No offense to Michael, but I feel like he says he's from New Jersey more than he actually acts like it. He says all the time that he'd just default to being a complete asshole in certain situations, but judging from what he actually says and does during the scenarios versus things he says he _would_ do seem to be quite different.

[@TheBoyBen]

Just go to his channel LtMikella or something like that and watch his early videos and you will see the Jersey seeping out of him, he's just changed over the past 4-5 years

[@TheBoyBen]

+ItalianGinger LtMkilla is his you tube :)

[@Likian5]

ItalianGinger I actually already knew that and did notice he had a bit more of a Jersey attitude during his early videos, but thanks.

What's the name of Michaels channel

[@bellaoswald2354]

LtMkilla!

[@Drowninginantimatter]

Not trying to rain on the parade but this story does show a worrying stigma towards mental illness in our society. Specifically, the attitude that the mental ill is dangerous to people around them.

[@JG-Games97]

Well, in all fairness, in a lot of situations the mentally ill are dangerous to people around them if they aren't able to cope properly.

Itsa got a face but no body!

What did the phone call have to do with him mugging Michael?

[@BoboBen35]

A large majority of "crazy people" aren't dangerous...

[@hornetf18]

Matthias Bangaard Jensen He said unpredictable. That doesn’t mean they’re dangerous, it just increases the chances of them doing something dangerous.

[@Fuchimy18]

Is he wearing lipstick?

[@MikkelZilla]

That twitter post at the end was actually pretty dumb. They had a guy with no body so nobody could have flow that spaceship with gasoline. If anything that was an extremely well thought out hallucination.

[@BoboBen35]

Just because he's potentially mentally ill doesn't mean he's a murderer...

[@BoboBen35]

Yeah, but you can say that about literally anyone. 99% of mentally ill are not dangerous to anyone but themselves

[@BoboBen35]

"Significantly". Where do you get that statistic from? The "mentally ill people are dangerous and unpredictable" is mostly a myth perpetuated by the media.

[@BoboBen35]

I'm sorry but you could say that about literally anyone, people you don't know are unpredictable in general because you don't know them? I don't think the person you encounter having a mental illness is a variable that should make you instantly question or fear their actions, that's a huge part of the problem.

[@BoboBen35]

What does mentally unstable mean to you?

[@BoboBen35]

If that's how you define it, then that's a very loose term. Not everybody with mental illness is out of control of their actions or are defined by their illness itself. It's kind of a one label fits all mentality. "Mental illness" is a vague term that applies to a several different disorders with varying degrees of symptoms, and it doesn't equate to being dangerous or out of control of their actions. Hell even 1/4 of the population has some sort of mental illness. Even if someone tells you, "Cthulhu stole his cat." That shouldn't be a warning sign of that person being scary or dangerous to your safety. If that person was known for having violent behaviour towards other beings, then that's an obvious warning sign. It's very rare that a mentally ill person is fine one day, then out of control in a dangerous fashion. It's significantly more likely that they'll be a danger to themselves than other people.
