  • Personally, Veritasium is out of that list for me due to some of his more recent videos. He still has some good content but I really disliked that “rods from God” video where it feels like he’s basically doing the same thing as the “How Ridiculous” guys and trying to disguise it as science communication. And the (admittedly few) ones where he’s basically disguising advertising as his regular content.

    I nominate BobbyBroccoli to take his spot.








  • “Twink” is also an old MMORPG term that designates characters specially optimized to play in the lower pvp brackets with the biggest advantage possible.

    For example, back in my days, in wow, a lot of people would play level 19 characters (Levels brackets for pvp were 10-19, 20-29 etc) with the best pvp gear for this level and enchants that no one in their right mind would pay for on a character that was not meant to stay stuck at this level forever.

    A non-geared level 19 hunter in a battleground was already scary if you were around level 10, but these mfs could basically only be defeated by other twinks.
