 You know, I used to beat off in a school bathroom every now and then. Ah, wait, that's the wrong script. This is next week's video. I was always the person that was the last to know anything about anything trendy in school. It didn't matter what it was. Now, everyone else was out buying the new Call of Duty, buying the new iPhone 17000. You know, me on the other hand was four trends behind still trying to complete my silly bands collection. I've always seen it as a blessing in a curse, you know, a curse being that obviously people probably think I'm some sort of out of the loop dipshit, which I was by the way, and a blessing being that it was much harder for people and companies to persuade or peer pressure me into buying something solely for the fact that other people were getting it. Buy the new iPhone. Buy the new iPhone. You will buy the new iPhone. I will buy the new iPhone. Wait a minute. What's an iPhone? You know, the phone made by Apple? Okay. I will buy the new iPhone from Apple. Oh, wait a minute. What's Apple? And thank God I was so out of the loop because if not, I would have missed out on some of the funnest things in my life, like sort our online, man, sort our online at the time of me discovering it. It was like a weird amalgamation of all the things that I thought were cool. Anime, virtual reality, video games, you know, even romance, the fights or super high energy, the story, it had some really emotional moments, but the best part of SAO was undoubtedly its soundtrack. I mean, just listen to it. All right, all right, that's enough. That's enough. A few more milliseconds in the YouTube police would have put this video under money jail. I loved SAO so much, you know, I wanted to tell everyone about it. I wanted to discuss it with my friends, my family, you know, everyone I knew. For that period of time, there was nothing that I liked more than SAO, but that was the problem that I liked SAO. And as I said before, I wasn't out of the loop dumbass. SAO, the anime, right, it came out in 2012. I started watching late in 2014 when it came in Netflix. I only found out midway into the series that somewhere between those two years, the anime world had grown an irrational hatred towards the show. So much to the point where if someone within the anime community caught you watching Sword Art Online, they were legally obligated to kidnap and strangle you. I even remember walking past an American history class one day and hearing SAO class, today we're going to be learning about Pearl Harbor. Does anyone know what Pearl Harbor is? Oh, pick me, pick me. Yes, Jimmy. It was it was the second worst thing to happen to the United States. You know, the first being Sword Art Online, of course. Good job, Jimmy. Bonus credit for knowing that extra bit of knowledge. I had no one to talk Sword Art Online with and made me feel lonely, you know, secluded. Like I was an entirely different species. While all my friends were at lunch talking about the latest episodes of anime that they watched, I was distant, sitting on the sidelines in the shadows, waiting for a Sword Art Online hate to die down so I could finally tell them how good of an anime it was. But everywhere I looked, it didn't seem as if it were getting any better. You know, no one seemed willing to speak up. No one seemed willing to make a change, to fight for the small guys. I mean, come on, what's the worst that could happen until one day this one guy walks into the lunchroom and he's just screaming, I've had it. I'm done. I'm done. I had it up to here. All right, I'm tired of pretending that Sword Art Online is a bad anime. I'm so tired. We just hate it because it became cool to hate it. Why? Because we're pretentious fucks. That's why. And I shit she not the principal, right? He's at the other side of the lunchroom. He walks up to this kid. He walks up to this kid, looks him in the eyes and he just shoots him.
