HORROR RETRO CLEANING [Janitor Bleeds]

[@phoenixwhittaker]

6:45 I'll admit, I'm another of those that was like "Oh, Gary is much more handsome than I expected." Not that you came across as grumpy, sullen or anything, I was just expecting an average dude but you have quite the infectiously uplifting personality and it comes through a lot more with the cam than just as a voice through one of the others videos.

I found you on Gab's channel, since I follow her for years and I love her content and Gary, let me be honest with you for a minute. I already thought you were a funny and kind person before thru your voice and now even more so! You are such a sweetheart :D I like your bubbly and positive personality.

[@thehotcross2]

@@Kittyfriends-x6v aw thank you so much, I really appreciate that! 💛

[@fabletowns]

Super delighted I found your channel through John, you're SO fun to watch and a total sweetheart! This game is cool as hell too, thanks for sharing your stream on YT and can't wait to see more of your content!

[@thehotcross2]

Aw thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the content! 🙏💛

This is why I have removed 99% of my family from my life. I staunchly oppose the idea that we are required to keep such people in our lives just because they happen to be blood family. That's BS if ya ask me. Found family is what brings me peace and joy; I'll stick with them instead. I hope you are able to find peace this holiday season, Gary, and anyone else who struggles with family.

“What if the shop has my new favorite chocolate?” I felt this!!! 😂

[@Tired_heron]

I've really enjoyed watching your VODs on KZbin - thanks for uploading!

[@eggsplicitly]

“i just really like finding money” Me too Gary 😂 Glad to see you looping Megatron 🤣 Thank you for the VOD uploads Gary!

[@Anna-qy8md]

Monty sounds like my dog Winston😂. Winston has eaten a whole shoe and a tube of antibiotic ointment (among other things). He is actually also a rescue lol. Recently, he was put on anxiety medication, and it has really helped with the eating issue.

[@thehotcross2]

Yeah Monty was a rescue dog as well, maybe he was just anxious thinking about it. Give Winston an extra treat from me! 💛

[@s0r480]

Ayyy it's TheHotCross2! Digging the VOD uploads man!

The family's political talk is so relatable tbh. But it happens almost daily for me, unfortunately. My dad used to be pretty opem minded back then & quite progressive until he reaches his mid 50s. Idk what happened but now he's suddenly so vocal about against all of the things he at least neutral about before. So we kinda argued a lot bcuz of it. Hope someday in near future you finally get a wonderful memory where it make your whole December finally a beautiful & happy one! Btw the game is so fun!? Thanks for playing this btw!

[@tiffinihansen6054]

Speaking of long games......I'm playing RedDead Redemption 2 with John Wolfe (obviously not "with" him😂). But watching him play got me into the game. Yes, I know it's been out forever, but I have had 0 spoilers so far and know nothing besides what I've watched John play. I'm ½ way through chapter 4, and have SOOOOO many hours in. Like, at least 80+ hrs😂 But I love secrets and trying to 100% as much as possible. Anyway, carry on good sir❤

[@tiffinihansen6054]

Every once in a while when you're reading Gary, you go full "Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous" voice and I LIVE FOR IT😂 As always, thank you for still uploading to YT!!! Love from Iowa, USA!!!!!! ~ Tiff

[@jesseract07]

Been a Dragon Age fan since Origins. The new game is super fun and the romances and character relationships are super well done! I hope you do end up playing it!

[@FaultyGlow]

Feel your pain about unpleasant politics during holidays. My uncle wore a Trump shirt to Thanksgiving solely to try and get a rise out of me this year

[@skeptism27]

i don’t know why, but i wasn’t expecting you to be so happy and sweet!!! maybe from listening to you and john mess with sinow hehe!

[@D3AD3ND3D]

😍 so cute

[@caitlinjudkins2964]

I love how his voice sounds like >:D when he sees teddy bears lol

[@auddie6639]

It's less that you came across as grumpy and more that when your face was added to your voice you very clearly radiate happiness. I think the tone of your voice makes you come across as kind of flat toned (for lack of a better description) until we see you smiling. For some reason I also pictured you being dark haired (like brunette) with a dark mustache. No idea why.

[@AbbaJoe26]

I don't know if you guys have heard about it, but apparently the Buckshot Roulette video game has just come up with a multi-player mode now. From the simple but diverse content and openings for humor and sassing each other, this might be a GREAT try for a one-off (or multiple eps) for your EZ Small crew Gary. :) Or at least a great chance for you and John and/or Sinow to take the piss out of each other in a fun goofy game mode environment. lol Like you did with John and Sinow on the game system tier listings............but with shotgun and random "implements". heh heh Saw Markiplier try it out with his regular crew and it looks like it would be even BETTER with you guys and your great natural camaraderie. :)

[@thehotcross2]

I'll mention it to the others! Thanks for the heads up! 💛

[@AbbaJoe26]

@@thehotcross2 Awesome! And thanks for checking in on your vids, and responding. :) That's really neat and effortful. It's nice to see good people on here, and with lots of uncut content to enjoy the flow and your full you-ness and your experiential. You make things a lot more fun on here, and help with lots of long play videos for the tough days and long days sometimes. Makes everything a bit better. You're a role model sir. :)

[@thehotcross2]

Aw I'm glad you're enjoying the content, I really appreciate that! 🙏💛

[@AbbaJoe26]

@@thehotcross2 Always. Not only the banter and fun, but I've been into games since way back, so I love hearing you go flow of thought on game design, and choices and elements in the game. I live in that mind space (on some layers, while also enjoy the games on other layers too) while playing games too, so it's like coming home to hear your thinking and talking about it like such. But now I wish I'd gotten to hear your courses teaching. Probably a hoot. :) I love nothing more than people who are original and tread their own way with things.

[@maley422]

Glad you get to meta clean up in this game 😆

[@cafsurfine]

I would say you are more handsome than I expected, but I was not expecting the mustache and curly hair. Like you and John are the very stoic dry retorts and banter compared to sinows more bratty sassy behavior, so I expected you both to look like older brothers to him. I think it is like you've mentioned you were/are a professor for UI which I can hear in your voice but then as you are streaming a video game your appearance is as a streamer and not as a professor so there is cognitive dissonance. Like my dad was a teacher and it was always funny going to the store, a student spotting him in the wild and flabbergasted that he dressed casual.

[@thehotcross2]

I still to this day have an irrational looming fear of going out drinking and bumping into my ex students in the wild 😂

[@cafsurfine]

@thehotcross2 when I was getting my series 7 in finance, our virtual instructor for margins and options had a full "streamer setup"(like dslr camera, the gamer chair, led red and blue lights, sound proofing wall, and one of the professional effects sound boards, and in introductions to the class went, "I was a professional twitch streamer. Being a financial instructor pays more talking to fewer people. Yes, my vods are still up. No, I will not share my username or friend people until you have at least passed this course, and i am not your instructor. I don't friend losers." It was a wonderful class. I just remember first arriving in the zoom session and going, "This isn't an overwatch charity stream, is it?"
