hey man, Just wanted to say that I'm taking a crap right now, and when I came across your video, I literally almost threw my computer in the toilet cause you are just SUUUUUCH a piece of shit.
hey man, Just wanted you to know that I am actually taking a crap right now. I came across your video and I literally almost threw my computer in the toilet, cause you are just SUUUUCH piece of shit.
Anyway, afterwards we're gonna meet at my step dad's to watch donnie darko, and ironically watch the 700 club. I think Jason scored us some salvia so he's gonna stop by too (you remember jason right? well, he remembers you haha!) Ok, I'm out. See you tonight dude.
hey man, cool hair! seriously. that shit is EPIC. Anyway, me and my jug band are hosting a walk to end all-world-problems-ever next sunday. I'd really dig it if you'd do one of your little videos promoting it. We gotta show all these "sit in" motherfuckers that standing still (or sitting..LOLZ) is no way to initiate change! Like I always say, if you isocentrically want to initiate an isocentric movement, you have to be willing to move!
It's cool, I call my Mom dude, lol. I agree with you when it comes to working together and treating one another as equal beings, because we are. Most just don't know it yet. Thank you for posting this. Rock on man!!!
Man, there is something about him that just irritates the crap out of me. I don't want to feel this way towards the guy, but I can't help it. I wont go into details because I try real hard not to be mean. But FUCK ERRRRRR. No more Crossland for me.
It's been awhile since I've watched your vlogs. I forgot how entertaining these were. I think people will die regardless of their anger or social structure in the world, but I think it might speed up tragedy if people are angry, like with wars and stuff.
Isocentric - this is not actually a word by any means. Use of isocenter is in reference to photography or radiation therapy. Split the word apart and we have iso - STANDARD and centric - PERTAINING TO CENTER.
So weed and video games make you get into a STANDARD CENTER state of mind.
Yeah, so wow, deep or something - or rather, trying to be deep with big words and silly phrasing.
I began watching your videos because I found them funny. Watching and listening to a neophyte speak in, of, and about every academic and spiritual discipline as one would if one were the grandmaster of them all, actually amused me. Back then, I saw you as a boob; at best, you were an unprincipled narcissist headed for stardom amongst a growing fan base: the uneducated, strung-out, sycophantic morons that kept your ego inflated by giving you props when they shouldve been devising your downfall.
I misjudged you. Indeed, tonight, I've been set straight. You've moved from the utterances of the ardent, half-baked fool to the oratory of someone whom I fear could someday see himself so self-important, that others might feel shitty enough about themselves to follow as truth the "Crossland-agitprop" that flows so mellifluously from your gob. The narcissist has elevated himself to the megalomaniac. I somehow feel culpable for future horrors at your hand by having said anything, at any point.
Someone once said, The megalomaniac differs from the narcissist by the fact that he wishes to be powerful rather than charming, and seeks to be feared rather than loved. It is now clear to me how pervasive your ego truly is; all of your videos heretofore have been but preambles to the truth, washing over complex sciences and schools of theology, those things easily bastardized by your overblown rhetoric. If one looks hard enough, one can find your stench all over the place. They've but read:
The Prophet said, I have been given five things which were not given to any one else before me. God made me victorious by awe by His terrorizing my enemies. The earth has been made for me. Booty has been made lawful for me yet it was not lawful for anyone else before me. I have been given the right of intercession. Every Prophet used to be sent to his nation only but I have been sent to all mankind.
Because you feel some small measurement that you are the "one". That throughout all of humanity, you are the single "Enlighten One" out of us all. The only reason I do watch is the hope that you might have something worth watching, but obviously not.
I just got done commenting on your "Im with Revolution" video. Dude, you try so hard to not to project yourself as egocentric, but you are. At the beginning of this video, you clearly were attempting to imitate Jim Morrison. Your videos are like reality t.v. shows. You want other people to waste their life to watch your own. Why?
Christ Ian is a moron, tribes all over the continent? What is it that you think we have? groups of people spread across the continent, in cities and towns, with their own "semi-culture" and "culture".
"Connected through the internet"? do you know how the internet works? do you even have the slightest clue how the modern world works?
That's funny ofze... wrote Ian a week or so ago and a whole bunch of other yt'ers asking them to address the current political issue (tho an anarchist could care less but still realize it's important)
How about something interesting from U with your little 4 favorite channel?
I'm taking my own advice, u see, I can only ask people to stick together and be productive. But I'm going to have to say what I have to say with or without support. I'm aware why people abstain. Sad but it's not my prob.
"test the limits"? Those stoner videos are all exactly the same. You smoke some shit then sit then babbling theories about pseudo-physics. It "test the limits" about as much as leaving the house without wearing socks.
And after all this time of doing it, you have learnt nothing.Therefore you repeat it again in the belief you are being cutting edge, "testing the limits".
It's boringly pathetic.
At least your videos about cocksucking were unpredictably interesting.
And that's why you're back for more, saying the same shit, blah blah blah.. "Ian you're so boring but I'm so lifeless and wasted myself that I still find what I consider boring... interesting" w.......t..........FFF??
STFU already. Really.
And the rest of you with your thumbs down (or up) bs? You have something to respond with, say it. Otherwise, shove your thumb somewhere useful. Pathetic, obsessed waste of bandwidth mf's make Ian look like a GOD.
What's being said is, if people can really get over their hang-ups on relationships (in OOOR out of bed) and be more loving... we're all fucked. Not that complicated. Thank you.
oh, and, for the next two months, we need to stop the 15 minute star shit. I've been silent for too long and had a complete turn-around the last few weeks considering Sarah Palin being on board.
By the way Ian, *favorited*.. and thanks for all your support, commenting all that stuff thus far. Oh yes. Thank you so much. Because you know what a dirty, dark, fag asshole I am. You know how I use YouTube to be famous.. not like I ever did anything before the net on television and shit. *shrugs*
At 5:00 onwards you remind me of Dennis Hopper's mad photographer in Apocalypse Now 'Do you know that IF is the middle word in Life?' And i feel like a dazed Captain Willard observing the horror...the horror (lol only kidding mate...good videos)
Being conscious of your perspectives during said perspectives is key, I think. It's just the process of constantly widening your preceptors. More bandwidth.
yeah Ian, when you can get a handle on lusting you will become master of the universe!!!! ( from our POV your head will just stop resembling a pressure cooker. )
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
damn it why so many thumbs down to me? i was just saying that just because sometimes ian is a "tad" eccentric doesn't mean all of his ideas are untrue. learn to commonsense you negative goombas
eye em one two! iam12! the universal formula that explains everything. E=mc2, iam=1-2, same formula, different perspective, a singularity then a "Big Bang" the kicker "Time" what is time???past.present.future, I am so afraid of "Time!" Today is the tomorrow I worried about yesterday! cogito ergo tempus habetur! I think therefore I have time! a universal cogitator who has all the time in the universe? I am immersed in time, a goldfish in water, me in time! I AM A TIME THING! now'zitimetogo!1-2
I thought a "bluey" was a pernicious sociogenic slur used against Australians of varying sociogenic upbringings. I could be mistaken. Someone will correct me.
In my comment (to which your comment alludes) I suggested Ian abandon his culture entirely and immerse himself completely in another kind of society for some years. Be a blank slate and learn again a language/culture from the beginning as a child does. Succeed or starve.
A side effect of this experience is that the brain is retrained along the way to distinguish between the map and the territory, between the menu and the food. Ian is always chewing the menu.
Hey, em, please remember that you are discussing a human being...he may not be the best of them, but I'm sure he reads your comments. You seem to be good at the therapist thing, but psychoanalysis does come with ethical standards, which I'm sure discourage obsessively analyzing someone against their will. Everyone finds it creepy and I don't think its helping.
All I'm saying is if you are going to discuss this kind of thing at least talk with him, don't talk above him. I think you are big part of the reason that Ian is weirded out by the response he gets on youtube. I'm willing to guess that a reason that you are so interested in Ian is that in some way you relate to him, even if you disagree, so maybe try to find some common ground some time. I respect what Ian is doing even if his paradigm is off the mark. So are many of ours.
nonescheton, To be clear, I am not a medical professional of any kind so naturally I am not bound by the professional ethical standards to which you refer.
Besides, Ian asks for it:
"That's what I want when someone talks to me. I want someone to tell me that I am fucking getting out of hand and I want them to tell me why..." Ian Crossland 4-11-2006 /watch?v=WYcqpt_SK3I
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Who the hell really feels bound to "professional" ethical standards? Don't you have your OWN ethics to uphold? I'm sure you are a decent person, I'm just not sure that you are as aware as you should be that some of your shit could be pretty negative. You've been trying to convince him he is insane for what, like 2 years? If not him, are you trying to convince others? You must have a reason for posting this stuff instead of writing yourself a lab report. whats your mission?
1) I find it ironic to be lectured about ethics by a sockpuppett.
2) Since you have been watching and reading comments for 2 years you surely know those questions have been asked and answered several times already by me. What do you hope to gain by asking again?
I only meant well here. I'm not sure who you have me confused with, (sockpuppet?) I've been watching Ian's videos for awhile, I don't typically read every comment as they are all mostly hateful but sometimes Emwharton is hard to ignore. But anyway peace to all of you.
Yes, so you claim to have watched Ian for two years and yet this account was created only last week. Don't play stupid and pretend to not know what a sockpuppet account is. After all, a person who's been on YouTube for years can't not know what one is. Oops. Anyway, try challenging someone in your known account and stop hiding.
noneschton writes to me: "You've been trying to convince him he is insane for what, like 2 years?"
No, I do not need to convince Ian of something he already knows. I am not saying anything Ian has not already said.
For example, in his MESSAGE TO STEPHEN COLBERT his discusses his O.C.D. openly. /watch?v=pw8LXGxLlE0
He has also told his listeners about the diagnoses of depression (an element of bipolar disoorder) which allows him to purchase medical marijuana in California.
I'm confused about what a "sockpuppet" is in reference to YouTube. Is it some secret Iannuendo that one only appreciates after two years of obsessing with his hollow musings?
"I'm insane! I'm insane! I'm insane! Please supervise me! Please medicate me! Please help me have another meaningful masterbation event soon or my mind will "wet-dream" me again, oh man, sirens, they're coming to take me away, more exposure is the solution at hand to all this stimulating in-put!!! to sleep, to dream, to ejaculate one more time! Please, please, please, m'aidez! m'aidez!
Ian, In this video you claim to be learning by decompensating on camera (time index 0:00 to 1:23) but I cannot think of one instance where you have admitted that the facts and assumptions asserted in a previous video have been wrong.
There is no evidence in any of your videos that you have ever learned anything.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
wow, some of you actually don't understand that you can communicate without words? so when i flip you off because you can't perceive inherently simple concepts which part don't you get? the part where i'm angry or the reason why?
onefourzeroeight muses "...my guess is he actually views these videos as a form of creativity."
It is much more grandiose than that. He considers them his magnum opus.
"This not a cult. This is a fuckin rock band, movie, scientific theory, OK maybe, you know, I use that term lightly.... This is my magnum opus." - Ian Crossland (15-9-2007) /watch?v=jpA-mypI38g
hey crossmack iv watched you for a long time very good words there you made me think you should look at this video u should find it here on youtube its called equilibrium it stars christian bale
ian, the silent bullshit is whack. seriously, watching the beginning of this video i thought for once you are sounding totally normal and then boom here comes silent communication. i dont know what youre thinking of in your head when you do that shit, but everyone else is thinking "damn i wanna have some of what hes smokin"
ur adorable Ian don't worry about what we think cuz like you said we kinda know when your brain is fried and when you're okay =) so continue just being yourself cuz you're supercool Ian!
People have these little temperaments, nuances, idiosyncrasies and weakness. You can give everyone a chance, but you have to work with these things... sometimes.
Message for the masses? Cool title I thought, but then you blather on about nothing. I was all ready to digest a message and react to it. Yeah, I feel like I know you now as do alot of people. And you are so very, very boring.
so, uh, who exactly is laughing at 1:07? oh and if no one was around last night then what the hell is up with those door noises? i dunno man i call bs
One more, because *you* are so ignorant... ignorant of the rest of the world.
"When does a city become a city of ruins?" you ask. You ponder population decreases; ponder number of buildings standing. Brave Ian, thinking about the science-fiction-esque apocalypse!! Searching for water!~
Try asking anyone from the former Yugoslavia, whose cities changed IN YOUR LIFETIME, and you'll get some idea.
"I feel like the ignorant, angry people will die. Probably due to the weather."
Ahhhhhhhh, don't worry, Ian. No one thinks you've got a screw loose.
And speaking of screwing, you seem to have quite a subtext there about predatory characters and having to watch out for them. Suggestion: instead of "calming people" through the internet, or whatever the fuck you said, why don't you go talk to a therapist about your concerns around homosexuality?
heh. In the first minute (having not seen the last video, and several before that), I was thinking, "Nice manipulative try, E. Like, yeah, there are people who know you and know that 'this is what you do' ["seem crazy"] and it's okay."
And now I'm at 2 minutes, and you've already gone off the end of the board into chatterscatter. In video veritas.
"If I didn't have that male-female thing around me I would be a constant creator. I would be a constant learner..."
Ian, You just spent your Saturday night getting stoned, playing a video game and making a YouTube video. NO ONE believes that an attraction to women prevented you from spending your time more wisely. Especially since you have already told us that you believe women are weak-minded(28-10-2007), untrustworthy(16-3-2008), whores(13-4-2008), and a poor substitute for a man(25-8-2007).
He likes a "bit o' the willy" in his backside now and again. It is murky waters, talking about sex with Crossland. Ever since his well-documented experience in NYC, it has never been the same. Waking up to a fella' yanking on Mr. Happy and knocking on your backdoor gives everyone pause to rethink their pre-nocturnal positions.
Ian, You are not an empath. You've simply redefined the word. In fact, it is pretty clear that you do not feel properly at all.
On some level you are already aware of this or you would not have experienced shame at your reaction to the slaughter of 9/11:
"...when the second plane hit I remember thinking,'good'... I remember having that feeling 'Good. I hope there's more.' In that moment I was being satisfied... I was ashamed of that thought..." - Ian Crossland /watch?v=uRrODq2KxL8
Ian, I am still not entirely convinced that you know the difference between reality and a video game.
For example, in your video SIMULATING LEADERSHIP you claimed to be using video games to prepare yourself to be a great world leader after the apocalypse. In yesterday's video you seem to believe that the rules of the SPORE game are actual principles of biology!
hahah i understand you, ian! funny shit. that last video went way over my head as do many when you're stoned and rambling. but it's hilarious and you're a good guy just trying to understand yourself. interesting to watch, anyways!

In my comment (to which your comment alludes) I suggested Ian abandon his culture entirely and immerse himself completely in another kind of society for some years. Be a blank slate and learn again a language/culture from the beginning as a child does. Succeed or starve.
A side effect of this experience is that the brain is retrained along the way to distinguish between the map and the territory, between the menu and the food. Ian is always chewing the menu.

Hey, em, please remember that you are discussing a human being...he may not be the best of them, but I'm sure he reads your comments. You seem to be good at the therapist thing, but psychoanalysis does come with ethical standards, which I'm sure discourage obsessively analyzing someone against their will. Everyone finds it creepy and I don't think its helping.
noneschton 3 years ago
All I'm saying is if you are going to discuss this kind of thing at least talk with him, don't talk above him. I think you are big part of the reason that Ian is weirded out by the response he gets on youtube. I'm willing to guess that a reason that you are so interested in Ian is that in some way you relate to him, even if you disagree, so maybe try to find some common ground some time. I respect what Ian is doing even if his paradigm is off the mark. So are many of ours.
noneschton 3 years ago
nonescheton, To be clear, I am not a medical professional of any kind so naturally I am not bound by the professional ethical standards to which you refer.
Besides, Ian asks for it:

Who the hell really feels bound to "professional" ethical standards? Don't you have your OWN ethics to uphold? I'm sure you are a decent person, I'm just not sure that you are as aware as you should be that some of your shit could be pretty negative. You've been trying to convince him he is insane for what, like 2 years? If not him, are you trying to convince others? You must have a reason for posting this stuff instead of writing yourself a lab report. whats your mission?
noneschton 3 years ago
noneschton,
1) I find it ironic to be lectured about ethics by a sockpuppett.
2) Since you have been watching and reading comments for 2 years you surely know those questions have been asked and answered several times already by me. What do you hope to gain by asking again?
emwharton 3 years ago 2
nonnie, why the sockpuppet account to address Edward? That's really quite chickenshit.
Michelle5451 3 years ago 4
I only meant well here. I'm not sure who you have me confused with, (sockpuppet?) I've been watching Ian's videos for awhile, I don't typically read every comment as they are all mostly hateful but sometimes Emwharton is hard to ignore. But anyway peace to all of you.
noneschton 3 years ago
Yes, so you claim to have watched Ian for two years and yet this account was created only last week. Don't play stupid and pretend to not know what a sockpuppet account is. After all, a person who's been on YouTube for years can't not know what one is. Oops. Anyway, try challenging someone in your known account and stop hiding.

noneschton writes to me: "You've been trying to convince him he is insane for what, like 2 years?"
No, I do not need to convince Ian of something he already knows. I am not saying anything Ian has not already said.
For example, in his MESSAGE TO STEPHEN COLBERT his discusses his O.C.D. openly. /watch?v=pw8LXGxLlE0
He has also told his listeners about the diagnoses of depression (an element of bipolar disoorder) which allows him to purchase medical marijuana in California.
And again...

I'm confused about what a "sockpuppet" is in reference to YouTube. Is it some secret Iannuendo that one only appreciates after two years of obsessing with his hollow musings?

According to today's Wikipedia: A sockpuppet is an online identity used for purposes of deception within an Internet community.

Ian, In this video you claim to be learning by decompensating on camera (time index 0:00 to 1:23) but I cannot think of one instance where you have admitted that the facts and assumptions asserted in a previous video have been wrong.
There is no evidence in any of your videos that you have ever learned anything.

One more, because *you* are so ignorant... ignorant of the rest of the world.
"When does a city become a city of ruins?" you ask. You ponder population decreases; ponder number of buildings standing. Brave Ian, thinking about the science-fiction-esque apocalypse!! Searching for water!~
Try asking anyone from the former Yugoslavia, whose cities changed IN YOUR LIFETIME, and you'll get some idea.
You have so little life experience.

And speaking of screwing, you seem to have quite a subtext there about predatory characters and having to watch out for them. Suggestion: instead of "calming people" through the internet, or whatever the fuck you said, why don't you go talk to a therapist about your concerns around homosexuality?

Ian, You just spent your Saturday night getting stoned, playing a video game and making a YouTube video. NO ONE believes that an attraction to women prevented you from spending your time more wisely. Especially since you have already told us that you believe women are weak-minded(28-10-2007), untrustworthy(16-3-2008), whores(13-4-2008), and a poor substitute for a man(25-8-2007).

He likes a "bit o' the willy" in his backside now and again. It is murky waters, talking about sex with Crossland. Ever since his well-documented experience in NYC, it has never been the same. Waking up to a fella' yanking on Mr. Happy and knocking on your backdoor gives everyone pause to rethink their pre-nocturnal positions.

Ian, You are not an empath. You've simply redefined the word. In fact, it is pretty clear that you do not feel properly at all.
On some level you are already aware of this or you would not have experienced shame at your reaction to the slaughter of 9/11:
"...when the second plane hit I remember thinking,'good'... I remember having that feeling 'Good. I hope there's more.' In that moment I was being satisfied... I was ashamed of that thought..." - Ian Crossland /watch?v=uRrODq2KxL8

Ian, I am still not entirely convinced that you know the difference between reality and a video game.
For example, in your video SIMULATING LEADERSHIP you claimed to be using video games to prepare yourself to be a great world leader after the apocalypse. In yesterday's video you seem to believe that the rules of the SPORE game are actual principles of biology!
