i had a HUGE argument with my mum - no more inheritance money -( [u_lX7FSWd8w]

Hello,

testing.

Hello.

Hello? Testing. Forgot to turn my mic on.

Oh guys, I'm sick again.

I can't believe it. I didn't think you can

get sick twice in a row.

I don't know if it's, if it's the same

sickness or if it's a different one.

God damn it.

3 weeks of this. It's been over 2 weeks,

I think, since I first got sick.

You can get sick twice in a row.

So I got sick over 2 weeks ago and it was

really bad, and then it was getting

better, and then for a few days

I was fine, and then I got a sore throat

again. The worst sore throat I've ever

had. So painful. And then I

got a fever again. Not as bad as the first

time, but it's still pretty hot

temperature. Now I've got this stupid

cough. I don't have the splitting headache

like before, so it's not as bad,

but now my voice is wrecked and I got this

cough. Really annoying. I keep getting

sick. And then

I was eating and some food got stuck in

my molar, and then I bit down

hard and And then it cut into the inside

of my mouth. Now it hurts on this side.

Got a gash on that side now. Stupid food.

I hate food like crisps because it's

really sharp and jagged and then gets

stuck in your tooth and then you bite down

and it cuts into your mouth.

Really dumb. Why can't they put some

tougher skin on the inside of the mouth?

All this sharp jagged stuff moving around

in there. I know, all these pimples on

this side of my face, all around my mouth.

Look, stupid pimples all around my mouth.

Why am I— I just, I'm in constant pain.

Ever since I came to Thailand, just pain

after pain. What is wrong with me? It's

like my body is falling apart.

Uh, Thailand has not been kind on me.

I don't think I have any weeks where I'm

just okay and I don't have any problems.

First few months I got here, I got these

hand rash things, then diarrhea every day,

and then ulcers inside my mouth. And then

I got that weird finger thing. This side

of my finger swelled up and it was really

Ah, so fed up. Why can't I just be

healthy?

And then I get gum infection because of my

wisdom tooth. Even though I use this

thing to, to keep it clean, sometimes it

still gets infected.

Or I accidentally bite the inside of my

mouth. It's one thing after another,

isn't it? Now I can't speak properly.

And because when I'm asleep I'm not

coughing, all the fluid builds up in my

lungs, and then I wake up and I'm just

coughing to try and get it all out.

Turn on TTS.

No, not if you spam that stuff, get me in

trouble. Uh, good news, my last

stream got monetized after the stream

ended. Like, after an hour it went green.

So it seems like keeping things clean, it

definitely fixed things. Just got to

restrain myself, just keep my mouth shut.

No, I'm not letting TTS play if it's gonna

get me in trouble. Have you heard Vexed

died? Yeah, I thought people were trolling

at first. Couldn't believe it. That's kind

of shocking. The guy was so young.

I didn't know what he was up to recently.

I heard he was in Thailand with a Thai

girlfriend. I thought he wanted to learn

Japanese and become a Japanese

interpreter.

How did he pass? Wasn't he taking some

kind of weird thing?

And then he got sick.

Am I still doing Cooking with Daniel?

Uh, I randomly do it on my second channel.

I'm kind of into baking pies right now,

so if you want to catch my— if you want to

watch my pie-making journey,

subscribe to Chef Daniel.

I made an apple pie yesterday.

It wasn't good. I might try again today.

I need to buy some stuff.

I made the dough completely wrong. You're

supposed to put cold butter, but I melted

my butter. The butter is not supposed to

melt. It's supposed to stay as like a cold

lump. It's not supposed to get

all blended with the flour,

so I got it completely wrong. And then

you're supposed to keep it cold, like put

cold water and

then put it in the fridge to cool it down.

I want to get a pie dish. I also made the

filling wrong. You're supposed to boil

down the apples in sugar and make like a

jam. I just chopped up the apple and threw

it in raw. It was so bad.

Hopefully my next attempt is going to be

better now that I know. It tasted okay

though after you chewed it all up in your

mouth. It wasn't bad. It's just the

initial texture and consistency was sort

off. I get a headache when I talk a lot.

It's like the vibrations in my head make

me dizzy. I should make Streamlabs put

a timer to link my second channel.

I think you guys know what it is by now.

It's just called Chef Daniel, should be

easy to find.

So my bank sent me a new bank card

because they expire every damn 5 years,

which is really annoying. My mum

messaged me saying, your new bank card is

here. So I say, Can you send it to me?

Now, does anyone think that there's

anything wrong with saying that? Yes or

no? Hi Daniel, your new card's here. And I

say, oh, could you send it to me? And then

she makes this big fuss because I didn't

say please. And then she's

like, well, I say we're family,

we don't have to say please all the time.

We're not strangers. And then she says,

no please, no card. And I get, I get

annoyed because she's like forcing me to

say please. And I basically say, oh, get

lost. I don't have to say please. You're

my mum. I'm not like a stranger. You're

watching too much Mr. Darcy. We're not

like 1800s Elizabethan English,

are we? Where we say, oh, Dear Mother,

please may I have some apple pie?

It would be ever so kind of you, dear

Mother. I was not raised in a family where

we speak like that. Sure, okay, if you're

like higher class, upper class, kids sent

to boarding school, your parents are like

aristocratic members of society,

then yeah, maybe. If you're like Boris

Johnson, but we're not high upper class,

we're like middle class. And she's not

even English, what's she going on about?

She's Chinese. Chinese people don't even

say please and thank you all the time.

Like, if Chinese people want something,

they just say gimme. Gimme the

butter. I don't know

about you, do you say please all the time

when you just ask your parents to do

something pretty simple. I just feel like

it's, it's too polite, it's too formal,

and it feels weird to say please.

But my mum has this weird thing about me

not saying please, like it triggers her

because I don't say please. I say thank

you. I got no problem saying thank you.

And if she had said, okay, I'll send it,

then I would have said thanks. I say thank

you all the time. But please? No, I never

say please. I don't like the word please,

especially when used with your family.

It's just weird.

So I go on this big rant to her saying

British people don't say please all the

time. What is your problem with language?

Why do I have to lecture her about about

English and class differences and stuff

like that. She doesn't even know what

she's talking about, and then she's having

a go at me because I don't say please.

Yeah, well, I wasn't raised to say please,

was I? If you wanted me to say please,

you should have raised me that way.

Come on, are there any English people

here? Do you say please when you ask your

parents for something simple?

Like, oh, could you send me this thing

in the post? Or could you buy some milk?

You wouldn't say, please, Father, could

you buy some milk for thyself? It's weird.

Don't you think it's weird? I don't want

to say please.

Why are you so heated about something so

small? Because it's stupid. I don't want

to be lectured about my language from a

foreigner who doesn't understand the

intricacies of the nuances of certain

words. She's not even English,

so I don't know why she's making a big

fuss about it.

Why do I have to speak so formally and

polite like she's the Queen of England?

Get lost.

And then I don't like being told how to

speak. I'm not a kid. I'm 34 years old. I

can choose how I want to speak. And

there's nothing rude about saying can you

or could you. Could you, can you is

already pretty polite. I think she doesn't

understand the different levels of

politeness. Like, send it to

me now is very rude, obviously. Send it to

me is like a demand and is rude. Could you

or can you is not a demand, it's a

request. I'm asking you to do this thing.

You don't have to do it. I'm just asking

you, could you do it? Like, can you do it?

I'm not asking you as like an

order.

If she doesn't want to do it, then fine,

I'll ask my sister to do it. It's not a

big deal. It just—

it really triggers me, people telling me

how to speak.

Is it because her original language has

different variations of politeness?

Cantonese is like the most blunt,

unpolite language ever.

They just use a few words to convey things

like, give me this, I want that, you want

food, I want food, I make food. You make

food. I want dinner now. Do it. That's

what Cantonese people speak like. Parents

say please and thank you? Maybe in

like the upper-class elite Chinese people

might, if the kids are like sent to

boarding school.

Oh, thank you, Jenkins. Do you say please?

I actually never say please even when I'm

talking to staff because I'm paying them.

They got to do what I tell them to do.

That's how they make money. I don't have

to be polite to them. They got to

be polite to me. I'm, I'm the boss. I'm

the one paying their wage.

So if I'm ordering in a restaurant, I'll

just say, can I have this and that? And

then I'll say thanks. I'm not like, oh

please, may I have it? I'm giving you

money. I shouldn't have to beg you to get

me something on the menu. That's your job.

Get my food, idiot.

Ahem. Also, Japanese people never

say please either. They don't say kudasai

all the time, do they? Like, Chihiro never

once said kudasai, and if she did, I'd

think that's weird. I'd say, why are you

using keigo with me? I'm your husband.

You don't have to speak so polite. Also,

if I had a kid, and he said please to me,

I'd smack him around the head. I'd be

like, why are you talking to me like I'm a

stranger? I'm your dad. Just speak

normally. Why are you saying please? Just

speak casually. Why are you speaking like

you're talking to Mr. Darcy or something?

It's weird.

Did you find Koreans to be super polite?

Yeah, when I was with that Korean woman

She phoned her mum and I was listening,

and she was using keigo, the Korean

version of keigo where they put yo on the

end of everything. And then she finished

and I said, why do you use yo and ieyo

with your mum? And she said, some Korean

families are like that.

But I never saw Japanese family members

say kudasai to each other. It would be

weird.

Well, I refuse to say please to family

members. It's just stupid. I don't know

where— I don't know when my mum started

thinking like this, because she didn't

really— she didn't used to do this. I'm

sure 5, 6 years ago she never used to make

a big fuss over me not saying please. And

I say thank you all the time, so shut up.

Ah, why is it such a big problem?

I don't get it. I get triggered because I

have a lot of arguments with my mum over

language. She thinks I'm being rude

when I say stuff when I'm not being rude

at all. I'm just asking or saying stuff in

a very casual manner, but she thinks I'm

being rude, and I don't know how to

explain to her that I'm not being rude.

And I don't— you shouldn't be getting

upset over what I'm saying because there's

nothing to get upset over. Like, I would

ask her what's for dinner, and then she

would get mad and like tell me to shut

up. All I did was ask what's for dinner.

Or are you making dinner? And then she

gets mad. I don't know why she's getting

mad. You know, one time she

got really pissed and she was like, oh,

shut up, Daniel, go back to your room.

Just because I asked what's for dinner.

The hell? I didn't

do anything wrong, did I? What's wrong

asking what's for dinner? I don't know

what's wrong with that. Is it such a

crime to ask your mom what's for dinner?

I don't know why she gets so mad about it.

I think she thinks I'm demanding that she

makes me my dinner. That's what she

probably feels like. She's probably

thinking, oh, stupid 34-year-old son can't

even make his own dinner, gotta make his

dinner every day. I'm just asking if

you're gonna make dinner or not, because

if you're not, then I'll go and make my

own dinner. Everything is so bloody

hard. That's why I can't stand living

there. Otherwise, you know, I would have

been happy living at home if it wasn't for

all these language problems.

So I just don't ask her anything if I can

get away with it, but sometimes I gotta

ask her stuff. I can't avoid not asking

things sometimes.

She gets really triggered over weird stuff

like food.

Oh, thanks, Jenkins. See, I say thanks all

the time. But I'm not gonna say please.

I'll say thanks, but I won't say please.

Like, I won't say please subscribe.

Really? How did you get it?

She's frustrated you live at home all the

time. But I don't! I live at home for like

a few months every year. What are you

talking— what's she talking about? I was

in Japan for like 3 years, and then I came

home for only a few months,

and then I went back to Japan. Then I came

back from Japan and I was at home for a

few months, and then I went to Germany and

Netherlands, and then I came back home for

a few months, and I went to Manchester,

and then I came back home for a few

months. I never even been at home for more

than 6 months.

Mostly. I'm barely at home

much. I always have like a plan

to, to go to Asia or to go to some other

country to meet a girl. I don't want to be

at home for that long. I just need to be

at home for a bit to like save up some

money, um, write up some plans.

So I, I don't know how to talk to my mum,

and I refuse to talk in like

18th century Elizabethan English. Why does

she think English people speak like—

English people don't speak like that.

Like, dear mother. She also gets annoyed

when I talk to her and I don't address her

as mum. So if I just say,

uh, do I have any post?

She'll be like, where's the mum? Where's

the please? Where do you think it is?

Up my backside.

Why do I have to say mum at the beginning

of the sentence? Why is she dictating to

me how to speak my own language? It really

annoys me.

My dad used to say please to me, and I

thought it was weird. Like, if he needed

help with some DIY, he would be— he'll

come to my room and he would ask very

formally, like, uh, Daniel,

could you please give me a hand for a

second? And I'd be like, Jesus Christ,

can't you just ask like a normal human

being? I'm your son, for God's sake. Just

say, Daniel, could you give me a hand?

And then I'd be like, okay, sure. But my

dad was always like, p-p-p-please,

could you spare 1 minute from your video

game, son? It was so weird and awkward the

way he talked to me. Found her on Tinder

and got some serious— Oh, thanks, Jane.

Good job. Always pleased when my viewers

succeed in the marketplace of women thanks

to my advice. Yeah, I didn't want to help

him, but I was okay with it. I mean, I

don't want to help people because it's

just wasting my time. I don't like helping

people unless I get something out of it,

but I know sometimes, you know, I gotta

help. It's not a big deal. Sure, okay,

I'll help him carry something up to the

second floor, whatever.

I just— I found my dad's over-politeness

to be too much, too formal.

It just makes it feel— makes the

relationship feel weird and distant.

I wouldn't want my kid to be pleasing me

all the time. Be weird.

Please is like a very formal, cold word

used with strangers.

Also, it sounds really passive-aggressive,

don't you think? Like, uh, could you

please do this for me? Could you please

pass the butter if you're not doing

anything else with your life? Like, could

you please do it? Thanks. It just sounds

really sarcastic, don't you think?

Cantonese people are pretty direct in

their speech. Yeah, I know, that's what I

thought. So it's not like it's her

upbringing to say please all the time. I

don't even know what please is in

Cantonese.

In Mandarin, it's qing, isn't it? Qing.

I googled it and it said usually they

wouldn't say qing. As if Chinese people

are the bedrock of politeness and

formality. They're literally the least

polite people in the entire world, next to

Indians probably. This is like grunts

command to each other.

I wonder how my cousins speak to their

I don't know, I can't imagine them saying

please either. But my cousins and uncles

and aunties, they're pretty— they're

pretty polite English people. They're not

like factory workers and van drivers.

They're like well-educated

Excuse me. I gotta flush out my

sinuses.

I don't know any English people to ask,

that's the problem. Who can I ask so

I can prove that I'm right?

Your sister? Well, my sister says, oh,

why don't you just say it to like make her

happy? And I say, no, I'm not gonna— I'm

not gonna bow down to her demands over

something stupid. I'm not just gonna give

in and admit defeat. I gotta stand

up for myself and what I believe in. Not

kowtow to her. It's just like

a power dynamic thing. She thinks she can

exert power over me. She doesn't like that

I'm grown up and I make my own money now,

and she can't exert power over me because

I can just do my own thing. So she finds

other ways to try and exert power, like

holding my bank card unless

I say please.

She sent it anyway because I guess she

didn't want to argue about it. Do not try

and argue with me. I always win. Don't

even try. You think you can win in an

argument against me? Good luck. Oh,

thanks, Jenkins. Do you get along

well with your sister, bro? Uh, question

mark. Yeah, we get along. We don't have

any problems.

I don't say— my sister doesn't say please

and thank you to me, and I don't say

it to her. We just speak normally.

Really annoying, these bank cards keep

expiring every 5 years. I guess I could

just ask the bank to send it to my new

address, but are

they gonna package it properly so it

doesn't look like a bank card? I hate

having to rely on my mum to do stuff for

me. I hate having to, like, owe her a

favor because then she holds it against

me. So I try my best not to ask

her for favors, but sometimes I need to,

you know. I always try

and do things myself.

So she does have power over you. Well,

yeah, because I need my bank card,

otherwise I can't get money out.

No, I'm not saying please. I shouldn't

have to beg my mum to send me my bank

card, which is a lifeline so I can get

money and feed myself. It's like the most

important thing, the bank card. She should

just send it to me without me asking.

Actually, she should send it to me without

me asking for it. She cut up my bank card

the first time, then I had to phone up the

bank, send me a new one.

Really frustrating. I got really mad.

I really wanted the time. Get lost,

idiot. Maybe she

doesn't feel like you respect her. Well,

she doesn't respect me either. If you want

someone to respect you, then you got to

treat them with respect first, not just

demand it.

You got to earn the respect, not like

demand it out of the person.

How dependent are you on your mum? I'm not

dependent on her at all. She doesn't send

me any money. As if my mum would

just send me money. My girlfriend's mum

literally bought her sister a brand new

car. And she's going to buy my girlfriend

a new car. We might get the BYD Seal.

Have you heard of it? China has this EV

brand called BYD. They got some new cars,

BYD Dolphin, and the BYD Seal is like

a budget EV,

their answer to the Tesla Model 3. We

might be getting that next year. As if my

mom would just buy me a car. Can you

imagine that? There's no way.

I never, I never once expected my parents

to send me any money. I've always been

proud about making my own money. And

paying for my Japan trips and stuff like

that by myself.

Okay, I had a free place to stay because

they didn't ask me for rent, but I would

pay for my own tech and my own

subscriptions, and sometimes I pay for my

own food.

Why not just say please? I shouldn't have

to say please. It's a level of politeness

and formality that shouldn't be asked for

in a family,

unless you're like Boris Johnson or Jacob

Rees-Mogg or Tony Blair. Like, I can

imagine Tony Blair growing up in a

household where he has to say please and

thank you every second. But we are not

part of the elite upper class,

are we? We're like basically middle

average, lower middle average class.

She feels like you only contact her when

you need something. Yeah, because I don't

really want to talk to her because every

time we talk we have some argument over

stupid language nuances.

I don't know what's happening with the

tax. They still didn't reply to me. It's

been over a month now. What are they

doing? I'm scared they're like building up

a court case. They said,

send us proof that you were in Japan. I

sent it, and then I've heard nothing since

then. It's been like 5, 6 weeks now.

Really weird.

Oh, can you see I got cardboard on my

keyboard now? Look,

I put cardboard on the, on the E key

and the spacebar. Because it was burning

my fingers when I play Rainbow Six. My

laptop gets so hot it burns my hands

putting it on this metal chassis.

I superglued this cardboard. I had to put

2 layers of it because it was still

burning through. I don't know

what's wrong with my laptop.

Whenever I put a game on, it just gets

really hot. Actually, it's pretty hot now.

I might put some on the G key. So I hold

down G to deploy armor, and it takes like

2 seconds. You gotta hold it down for 2

seconds, and it's causing me pain to hold

down the G button.

Oh, thanks, Makoto.

Don't you have an actual computer? No,

I'm too broke. I'm good. I made like

$1,000 last month, probably gonna make

like $800 this month. I can't get any

views doing anything. I thought the

illustrated stories would do well, but Not

only did they not do well, they also got

rubbish CPM. And then my girlfriend got

really upset, and then I had to like— I

had to talk to her and like try and

explain to her why I told those stories.

Then I had to tell her that I wouldn't do

it again.

She was on the verge of like breaking up

with me. Oh,

thanks, Makoto. Can I get a recap on mum's

situation? Uh, so my bank card came,

and then I asked her to send it to me,

and then she was trying to make me say

please. Then I got triggered because I

don't believe you should have to say

please to your family. I don't like saying

please to people. And then she was like

trying to force me to say please, and then

she said no please, no card, which really

got me mad. And then I went on a big rant

to her about how British people don't say

please all the time, especially not to

family. She's got this idea of like the

British gentleman, thinking that all

British people are like that

when they're not. So she sent the card

anyway, so I won. I always win.

Yeah, I'm asking for a favor, but, but I

said can you, which is already pretty

polite.

Okay, if I ask her to send me a my gaming

VR headset, then maybe

I would be a— I'd bump up the level of

politeness because I'm asking her to do

something which, you know, she's got to

pack it, put it in a box, take it to the

post office, and it's not really

important. It's just like a stupid gaming

thing, not really necessary.

Okay, then maybe I'd bump up the level of

politeness, but it's my bank card.

This is really important.

Maybe I would say, could you, instead of,

can you.

I would absolutely say please to close

family. Well, maybe you're just upper

class and like posh or something.

No, most people wouldn't ask. Most people

would not say please.

I refuse to believe it.

Especially not working-class people.

They'd be like, Dad, could you buy some

milk while you go down the shop? Cheers.

Dad, we need more bacon.

Dad, we're out of bread, could you pick

some up? I really don't, don't think

they're gonna say please.

Oh, thanks, Jenkins. Your mom sounds scary

mean, bro. Phew. Yeah,

she doesn't understand.

I can't believe you people are taking her

side over mine. This is why I hated doing

YouTube, because people just kept taking

my enemy's side in instead of agreeing

with me. You know the number one reason

why I got fed up doing YouTube? Because

every time I had a problem, people was

like, no, Dadu, you're wrong. Me, me, me,

me. What's the point doing YouTube if

people don't agree with everything you say

without questioning it? It's like the

whole point of doing YouTube, isn't it?

You're supposed to be on my side. I really

got sick and tired of doing YouTube around

Probably like 2020 when I felt like, oh my

God, these people, all they want to do is

argue with me and like tell me I'm wrong

about everything.

Sucks the fun right out of doing YouTube.

Why do you think I got fed up with it? I

used to love making videos, but the

combination of people just always

disagreeing with me and then people in my

real life fighting with me, telling me not

to make this and not make that,

constantly like trying to threaten me to

not make certain types of content. My mom

was always mad, like, oh, don't, don't

stop making videos about Chihiro. And then

Chihiro telling me, oh, stop making videos

about me. Then Meila saying, oh, stop

making videos about toxic stuff.

And then I did, and I listened to Mila to

try and please her, and then she dumped me

anyway. Stupid idiot.

All these people stopping me from— I want

to make videos that I enjoy making.

That's like the whole point of being a

YouTuber. You make stuff you enjoy making,

and then every time I try to do stuff I

enjoy making, people try and shut me down.

Don't do this, don't do that. Why do you

think I don't enjoy doing YouTube anymore?

I used to love it before, you know,

people started trying to piss on my

bonfire all the time.

And then I have to, I have to,

I have to listen to them because there'll

be very harsh negative consequences if I

just said, ah, screw you, I'm gonna make

what I want to make. Like, I can't just

say screw you, I'm gonna make what I want

to make, because these people do hold a

degree of power over me that relate

to my happiness and well-being.

I don't like being single. I feel very

miserable when I'm single. I like being in

a relationship.

So I got to, to some extent, I got

to please them.

Why did your card get sent to your mum's

in the first place? Because that's my home

address and

I trust my mum to, to do a good job of

sending me the card more than I trust the

bank, I guess, because she can bubble wrap

it and hide it. I don't know if the bank's

gonna do that. And also, is the bank gonna

pay the postage? It's like £10.

Do you resent your mum? Are you mad at her

for how she raised you? No, I'm mad at her

because of the way she treats me. She

treats me like a child.

And she's always like belittling me

or complaining about how I am. Like,

even with the garden, she'll say stuff

like, oh, I wish I had a son who could

chop down the tree. Oh, so nice if I had a

son who could do the gardening.

I don't really want to do the gardening,

to be honest. It's not really my thing.

And it would cost like £20 to pay someone

to do some gardening, wouldn't it? Like,

pay some kid. Some kid wants to make some

money, looking for some side hustle. Just

give him like £20. Let him do the

gardening. Why do I have to do it? I'm

busy. I've got YouTube to do, got

livestreams to do. I'm not a gardener,

okay? I'm a famous YouTuber.

And then she's like, oh, you don't do

anything. And then I say, I'm not a

gardener. And she'll say, what are you

then? Say, I'm a fucking famous YouTuber.

What the hell do you think I am? What do

you think I've been doing for the last 7

years? Think I just sit here talking to a

camera for nothing?

I'm a mother-effing YouTuber.

200,000 views every month, that's what I

pull. At least acknowledge it. She doesn't

even acknowledge that I'm a YouTuber. She

thinks I sit around playing games all day.

Wonder what Mila's up to Oh, thanks,

Jenkins. Yeah, I don't know, she's

probably dating some hippie guy with

dreadlocks at some concert,

living in a tent. I don't know, doing

something stupid probably. Oh, I was on

my old phone messing around with it.

Guess what I found on it? A 15-minute-long

voice recording of when Mila slapped me

and I turned off the stream. I guess I, I

secretly started recording thinking I

could use it later, and then I just forgot

about it. And she's like crying and stuff.

I thought, damn, did Mila actually love

me? Because she was like really emotional

and stuff. I don't know if I should play

it. It's kind of messed up if I played it,

isn't it? She's like crying and asking me

why I said mean things and Why did I say

that stuff when she was here? And I'm

like, I don't know. I didn't do anything

wrong. I don't know why you're crying. I

sound like such a dick.

And then I get mad and I'm like, I just

want some alone time so I can stream. And

then you won't give me alone time.

Sounded really awkward. I don't

think I was that mean. I just said she was

a bit annoying because she's like loud and

stuff, and then she got all upset and

started crying. Why are people such

crybabies?

If you're annoying, at least own up to it

or stop being annoying, maybe.

I don't know, what if she's pregnant or

something? That'd be crazy. I mean, she's

nearly 30. If she wants to have family,

now's, now's the time to do it. Can't

waste year after year messing around in

Korea. Anymore. You're not 22

anymore. Those days are over.

I don't know if she really wanted a family

though. She, she didn't really express

wanting a family much. She seemed like she

was into self-development and growing as a

person And doing tarot cards and

positive chakra and energy and that kind

of nonsense.

I got a bit grumpy, I guess. 'Cause we

were stuck in the house for 2 weeks

straight and we couldn't go anywhere. The

whole world was like shut down, wasn't it?

And I wanted some alone time. I just got a

bit stressed out and I snapped a little

bit.

Why is it so hard to get on with people?

I seem to argue and fall out with everyone

just because of the things I say. It's

weird. I don't even feel like the things I

say are that bad. Oh no, I called someone

boring. Oh no, I called someone annoying.

And then people were like so outraged

over the most tamest, benign insults.

I want to buy that microphone they use on

Trash Taste. What do you think? It's like

a £300 pro mic.

Mainly want to get it because I want to

make vlogs on my old Samsung phone because

it makes me look more attractive. I don't

know why. I was messing around yesterday

practicing with this phone and my old

Samsung S10 Plus, and every time I look so

much better in the S10 Plus. My hair

looks darker, my skin looks more vibrant.

On this phone, it makes my hair look gray.

I don't know what it's doing right now on

this stream. My hair looks fine, looks

nice and black, but when I sit in that

room and I try and make a vlog, it makes

my hair look like it's going gray or

something, and then it makes my face look

old.

I don't like the selfie cam on this phone,

but the problem is I can't use this mic on

the S10 Plus. Because for

some reason DJI didn't make it so this mic

is compatible with the— I don't know, the

kind of chip. It's like a Snapdragon chip,

and then this is an Exynos chip, and it's

not compatible with Snapdragon chips. So I

can't use this mic with the S10 Plus. My

old mic broke, the one with the, you know,

like the, the USB micro Rode mic.

So I don't know, I want to buy a new

plug-in mic. I could ask my mum to send me

my Blue Yeti Pro for my bedroom, but then

she'd be like, where's the please?

Maybe I'll ask my sister, but that's gonna

be expensive because it's heavy.

It's gonna cost like £20.

I wish I brought it. I didn't think the

USB Rode mic would break. This stupid mic

cost me £100 and it broke just because

somehow the USB socket soldering on the

circuit board broke off the circuit board

from me plugging it in and unplugging it

over and over again. What a stupid design.

So I would like to get a new mic, and that

is called an Shure M78BT,

whatever. They— all the pro YouTubers use

it. It's like that black mic with the foam

thing. Don't you think that would sound

really nice for my streams and my videos?

Right now I'm using the Flip 4Z for the

I don't know why so many of my viewers

left recently. Did you notice my view

counts dropping by like 50%? I went from

getting 8K, 10K to like 3K now. It's

insane. I don't know where these people

went. They all just disappeared. I don't

know why. I didn't even see like a load of

people unsubbing all at once. They didn't

even unsub, they just stopped watching. I

didn't get like 5,000 people unsub. I got

a couple, maybe like 150 people unsub.

My views are so low now.

I don't know why. It's really baffling.

I think because there's been no major

drama or

no major news and they don't care

about my regular content.

The algorithm is really annoying. It will

just decide to stop showing your new stuff

to your subscribers based off some stupid

metrics on YouTube Analytics like watch

time or whatever. Also, I don't have hate

watchers anymore. You notice that?

Before, I'd make a video and I'd get

hundreds of comments of people just hating

on me, and regularly I would

have 40 to 50% dislikes. Now I get

like 90% likes, which means all the haters

left. So I don't know what happened to all

the haters. I guess I gotta get rid of— I

guess I gotta just ditch my persona now

because I created a Daniel persona. To,

um, to like maximize optimization

for the hate watchers, to get them to keep

watching. I had to like create this

character called Danny Boy or

Daniel, and Daniel was like scumbag

cheating husband man-child who was an

idiot. And I like, I exaggerated my main

personality to be even more annoying,

to like get these hate watchers to keep

coming back. But now they don't come back,

so I'm thinking I ditch,

ditch the persona now and just be me.

It's just hard to detach from it now

because the persona became such an

integrated part of myself. I basically

became the persona to play the role well.

You know, like the whole, oh my god guys,

Chris Broad said he would have a drink

with me, he's such a dick. You know, like

that stuff. That was the persona.

Like, obviously I understand that he's a

very busy guy and he's not really

interested in having a drink with me, but

you know, I got to play up the persona to

get people to click on the videos and get

outraged, but it doesn't work anymore.

Is it because I, I admitted that it was

like a character and they just don't

believe it? They don't buy it anymore.

The problem with playing a character is

you always got to stay in character. You

can't break character. So either you got

to be really good at not breaking

character, or you just shouldn't make a

character. Just be yourself. I made the

fatal flaw of breaking character. Cuz I

couldn't do it anymore. It just— it got

too much. I got too fed up with it. It's

too hard to keep in character all the

time, especially when you livestream.

Like the whole divorce and marriage stuff,

I was playing a character, in case you

didn't know. Oh my God, I can't

believe my wife hates me. All I did was

cheat on her, you know. That was all the

character. Come on.

But people loved it. Like, they loved the

whole stupid man-child Danny who can't

stop cheating, gets kicked out by his

wife. They, they lapped it up. It's just

I couldn't do it anymore after I lost the

But there's nothing to fake anymore. I

don't know what, what kind of character to

I need to get outraged by something.

I'm not faking when I was outraged about

my mum. That did actually trigger me. I

get very triggered about people telling me

how to speak.

So yeah, it's kind of weird now.

What do I do if the character

doesn't work anymore? I might as well

ditch the character, but then how do I

revert back to pre-character

Daniel? I'm not— I turn on the camera and

I'm like, okay, how should I present

myself? Am I mad? Do I just be me?

I don't know anymore. It's weird.

I'm very confused now because

the past few years I've just been playing

that character, haven't I?

It was a fun character to play. I watched

an interview with Richard David— what's

Wait, I can't believe I forgot his name.

Hold on.

Uh, Rowan— why did I say David?

Rowan Atkinson, who was talking about

playing Mr. Bean, and then he would say he

absolutely hated the Mr. Bean character

because Mr. Bean was a horrible person,

but then he actually kind of enjoyed

playing into the character because it was

like such a different person to himself.

Because he's like playing this horrible

selfish man. And I felt like, yeah, I kind

of felt like that too sometimes. I

actually kind of enjoyed playing the

character because it was funny.

Mr. Bean is like a really horrible man.

I kind of like it because it cracks me up

because I find rudeness to be a funny form

of comedy.

But I feel like they really softened up

the Mr. Bean character over the years to

appeal to the more woke crowd.

But the early days of Mr. Bean, he really

was like this horrible man.

But it was funny because he was so unaware

of how stupid he was.

That's what made it funny.

You ever watch Austin Powers? Yeah,

Austin Powers is really funny too.

I like characters that are like very rude

and very stupid, like Homer Simpson.

I drew a lot of inspiration That's why

I wanted to make like a really rude,

horrible persona to play on the

videos to like piss people off. I found it

so funny they didn't, they didn't see it

and they thought that I'm like being real,

being serious.

I couldn't believe it. All these people

think that's actually me. Oh my god.

Oh,

it was

fun. Like, me and Chihiro would, would

talk and say— we'd try and come up

with ideas to get the people to watch and,

and like brainstorm ideas. I say, oh,

I could say, oh, I cheated on you, and

then you could get mad, and then you say

you cheated on me. And she was into it.

Like, she would sit— I was asking her,

could you make a video? And she'll say,

okay. Like, she was enjoying

making the video. She never said no when I

asked her. She went all the way to

Caesarea and made a video Talking

about how I cheated on her.

It got like 100,000 views.

I need— I mean, I won't say that actually.

I need nothing. I thought

that nearly got me in trouble if I said

that.

No, I need nothing. Nothing.

Next topic.

That's why I got so pissed off at Mida,

because she wouldn't do stuff with me to

like troll the audience. I nearly got her

to start doing it. Remember, we would— she

was dressed up with a hat, and then we sat

down to drink tea, and I said, let's

pretend I moved in with

you. And then I, I put the key under the

doormat. As you remember, I was staying at

the Airbnb. I put the key under the

doormat, and I pretended, oh look, I'm

sneaking in, I got the spare key. And then

we sit down in her room. I actually filmed

that video in 2 different apartments, one

at the Airbnb pretending I'm going in

there, and then the second part of the

video where we're in the room was actually

in her grandmother's house because I

didn't want to dox the Airbnb.

Is that video still up? I think it is.

It's called Moving In with My Girlfriend

or something. Like, I had to meticulously

plan every stage of the video.

The intro, the setting, the theme.

People say I don't put effort into my

videos. You have no idea the amount of

scheming. Okay, maybe my videos don't look

the best, but at least give me the credit

of the amount of scheming and planning

that went into the creation of the videos.

I don't give a crap about the video

quality. Well, that's— it's just fluff.

Content is king.

But I got pissed at Mila because she

wouldn't take it to the next level because

I had much crazier ideas, but she wouldn't

She, she wasn't interested in playing

along, and she kept saying, oh, you need

to get good viewers, you're just gonna get

toxic viewers doing this.

And I was like, yeah, as if, as if I'm

gonna be able to build a new audience of

good viewers. These are the only viewers

we're ever gonna get. Let's, let's face

Uh, I miss those days though. I don't

really know what to scheme now.

I need a plot and a storyline,

but I don't really have any ideas. I'm

kind of creatively empty now.

I don't know why though. What is wrong

with me? Something broke in my brain so

that I seem to be unable to

do that stuff anymore. Maybe I just grew

What could I do now?

The problem is there's no interest in

anything I'm doing, so I can't really— I

don't have any leverage. To create

a really interesting storyline because no

one's interested in anything now.

Maybe the tax stuff is like the only

interesting thing I've got.

No, I don't want to do the gay stuff.

If I had an actual male friend who would

play along, then maybe we could do it.

That's what Onision and Cyr used to do.

They used to like gay bait, make gay bait

What can I do with my girlfriend? I could

do like fake pregnancy. Now people

won't buy that. It's too— it's too

obviously fake.

It's got to be at least— it can't be

completely fake. It's It's got to be at

least kind of real. It's got to have roots

in reality. It can't be completely

fictional. I don't like doing that.

I don't want to completely make up a 100%

fictional story. I think that's

lame and it's boring.

I like to take a current situation and

then, and then take that and make it into

something more interesting, mold it into

something a bit more exaggerated.

It's just right now I don't have anything.

Are you sick? Yeah, I got sick again. I

recovered from the first sickness and then

I got sick again. Got a really bad sore

throat and then a cough. Everyone at

school's sick as well. The teacher didn't

come, so we had a different teacher, so I

think she's sick. The Taiwanese girl

hasn't come for like a week. The British

girl was sniffing and sneezing.

Oh, I talked to the British girl twice

now, and she initiated it twice.

The second time caught me off guard. We

were in the elevator, and then we got out,

exited the building, and then she just

suddenly turned around and started talking

to me, which was, um, a very unusual—

she just asked me if I was okay, if I was

still feeling bad. I said, no, I'm good.
