So Twitch is basically OF for tech nerds now?

JTV

There's that facet, but that's not all. They're basically trying to grow into being the video streaming version of reddit. Browse through the categories and you'll see the scope of it beyond just gamers and thirst traps.

Way earlier than that. It's just short for simpleton. My first time hearing it was in old Looney Tunes cartoons

yea that’s why I said “at least”. Thanks for the help though.

The Pimp himself Chad Butler (RIP) was my first time hearing that term as a kid

Yea he definitely made it popular. He’s the reason that word still exists in my opinion.

Twitch (clip of the people who made the decision to ban these words)


the girl on the left, is also the girl who banned the phrase "blind playthrough"

twitch has made the fatal mistake of hiring non gamers, to run a gaming platform

The gaming community has been injected with those types. Fresh Communication graduates. Look at games in general, game magazines, etc

They removed "blind playthrough" too since it might offend blind people

White male fragility

 

[goatmane]

They banned simp because female twitch streamers started complaing to staff that those words were affecting their pockets (people started making fun of simps for paying twitch streamers)

Neekolul went from obscure streamers to being signed to a big gaming team off shaking her fake t*ts and getting 45 mil views

Crazy. Theres no excuse for a woman under 40 to be broke in this era...

Should of have banned the whole damn site who in the fukk enjoys watching other people play a video game
