Most other infomercials do _something._ Maybe not a good something, but something nonetheless. Pastafina is a tall cup.

[@cheyannei5983]

I thought it was a glass tube? Either way it had plastic fittings. Do not expose plastic to high temperatures! The plasticizers will leach out and they're all terrible for your endocrine system. Plus, the plastics will harden and get brittle. Even 150f, etc is hot enough to do it. How much this happens of course depends on the type of plastic and what plasticizers we're used but generally speaking most plastic plates/bowls should be kept cold.

Nah, these came from the "inventing entrepreneur" era in the early 00s where everyone thought they were a genius trying to patent simple things, and some of the smarter ones figured out how to make supply lines from china to make these things for cents.

Why are people who don't do react content regularly always the best at reacting? This shit is so fucking entertaining

[@nesman1927]

They’re better because they haven’t been been completely drained of all humor or interest by “reacting” to things for years on end. The only time reactions are truly entertaining is when they’re genuine, and the person watching actually has a passion/interest/hatred in what they’re reacting to. Most “reactors” just leech off of other peoples content for free entertainment value and would be nothing if they didn’t have the videos to react to.

[@SilverlineXZero]

Because this is Jerma we talking about.

[@velvetpetunia]

depends on what they're reacting to, too. if it's another youtuber's content, then it's kind of scummy unless they can add to the dicussion / only show the highlight reactions. if it's something like old advertisements, it's more forgiveable, i.e Chadtronic and Jacksepticeye react to old commercials, think 80s, 90s, early 00s

[@SpectralMarker142]

Jerma truly is a “family” Streamer. Because he treats his chat like family. The way a father would treat a son. He tolerates them when they’re rowdy, and even calms them down at times. Jeremy listens and watches chat when they talk. When people say “goodnight” Jerma says “have a good rest.” He listens to the suggestions of chat and does everything he can to make them happy, even if it means planning things months in advance. He reads every question he is given, and answers them honestly. He treats his chat like one big family. Which makes Jerma a “Family” Streamer.

[@JacobKinsley]

This reads like something from talk to transformer

[@HabitualThinker]

Family roleplay andy

[@JacobKinsley]

3/6 marks for the analysis. The key point you missed is this is "How the ideal father would treat his son". The crucial fact is that Jerma acts as a role model for these people, especially those without a good father figure in their life. This is a key distinction as to why jerma provides a more soothing and relaxed experience to other streamers of his caliber. In a way, you could say that jerma’s beta dad style approach as a video game streamer is what many wish for in a father figure. Most of these individuals grew up with a very fractured relationship with their fathers and relied heavily on their mothers to support them in a sense that it was their mother who provided the father figure. What most lack is a supportive father figure to help guide them through the confusion of life. The qualities Jerma portrays through his "father" character allow the chat members who frequent his channel to relax, be themselves and most of all never feel that they are in danger of being called out. And when they are, it is either of no real consequence or actually brings something positive to the chat. Fear of speaking out is very common among those without a real father figure, and that is where Jerma truly shines because he provides a safe haven for those who feel alienated, as long as you follow the rules. The problem for Jerma is that he is mainly focused on being a gamer and just that one stream. One which is special to him and has nothing to do with his new role as "dad". He is in fact, the only dude we know of who is focused on gaming at the moment. If he sticks with that niche and just brings gaming with him, he has a pretty good chance at keeping his audience despite the popularization of esports. That being said, I personally believe it is not the right choice for him to change and try and expand his audience. With so many people streaming in every genre nowadays, the audience for video game streams is rapidly growing so the opportunity to gain a large following is now high. If Jerma can expand his viewership to, say, a bit more than 40,000, he can start thinking about growing his popularity to the point that he can break into the mainstream community. With that and a competitive mindset that allows him to grow on his own without being controlled by the idea that you need to be the "streamer" in order to survive. This is probably the case of the "slow burn" trend that many successful esports personalities employ. This brings us to one of the biggest differences between jerma and the traditional twitch streamer: Jerma isn’t really a streamer. He is essentially a community member that has been given the power to direct a community. In a way, you could say he is the "father" of Twitch and Twitch chat. The only thing he has to do is provide a safe and exciting space for the community to let loose and talk to one another. He has the power to fire out bad messages, which he does for any given reason. An ideal answer to the question is as follows: "If I had to choose between streaming as jerma or as dad, I would choose dad". Jerma has grown a following of mostly dads and he also has a large audience which probably sees his words as guidance rather than insults. As a father and streamer, he is the father that the people in his chat love and trust. However, as a Twitch streamer, his brand has to change. He will have to be exposed to more people and have to interact with them more, which does not appeal to him as a streamer and will probably not appeal to the Twitch chat.

I think that the war on cooking oils was around the same time that elementary school gym class was really pushing the food pyramid. Oil was at the very top, meaning it was meant to be eaten the least. Which is true i guess but no one is drinking cups of the shit. I also remember that around this time, acne medication commercials also talked about limiting oil consumption.

[@warbossgegguz679]

People have these weird and dated ideas about dieting and wellness that are dated af, but thanks to pop culture and marketing persist. Case in point, excessive carbs are usually what ends up being stored as fat, but everyone thinks that eating fats and oils = storing them as fats and oil. My other favorite example is how everyone is always afraid of sodium when in reality unless you have a heart or kidney condition all you need to do is drink enough water.

Someone needs to tell jerma the thing about the metal utensils only applies to non stick pans because itll break the protective coating which beneath is Teflon which causes cancer

[@ismaelrodriguez714]

I was actually thinking of that when I watched the vod. For cast iron and steel pans the scratching is more about extending the lifespan of it, but even so it's more of a suggestion because even if you make an active effort to scratch them every use they last a fairly long time. Teflon on the other hand!! You got to either use a bubble wrapped silicon spatula with a laser thermostat attachment or perfect your gravity defying telechintic pan flip in addition to developing daredevil heat sense ability to scramble some non-stick cancer free eggs in the morning. In addition to that remember to clean them with the soft spot of the sponge, make sure nothing is in contact with the teflon while drying and eigther buy a pan cover or remember to not put anything on it while in storage. He talks about it as if it's some weird cooking "respect your tools" etiquette, when in reality a scratch in that thing is a serious biohazard.

The crux of at least half of these devices is that they say 'its simple to clean and dishwasher safe' when its actually that you now have this device that has like 12 different pieces that take up half the dish washer plus if its an electric appliance theres probably a base you need to clean from stuff that drips onto it. I laughed out loud when they were showing them put the Hulk grill into the cabinet and said 'its as easy as storing a box of cereal' But the cabnet was like a trash can slotted space and the thing took up a good 10" in width. Like 4x the size of a family sized cereal box. But sure, just as easy to store away because physics and universal displacement laws dont apply to it.
