I thought the screenwriting course he was considering was one in the States? I presumed Paris was just to continue working similarly to as he was in London - the research assistant stuff for Ali and YT?
According to this interview from this month, he's doing the screenwriting course in Paris:

I’m still not over the fact that he’s in a relationship… with a woman.

Doubt anyone who has holidayed in Paris would ever want to live there for any length of time. Stunning historic city but it's the dirtiest major city I've ever visited. Makes London look spotless.

At the end of the newest second channel vlog he filmed a couple in front of him and then captioned it “feeling: single.” 🤐
Doubt he'd put that if he was still with his girlfriend. I guess he never mentioned them splitting because she's not a regular in his content.

Especially since he could have just said "feeling lonely" instead of "feeling single".

They are still following each other on instagram. But he just celebrated his birthday in Paris and his family came to visit him. But she didn't seem to be there.

She works in education I think and if she’s back in Durham it’s a nightmare to get to/more travel time than it would be worth paying for

As someone in a long distance relationship, I wouldn't be too happy if my boyfriend said "feeling: single" whilst still with me lmao I highly doubt they're still together, or he's just got a weird way of phrasing his loneliness/missing his girlfriend

Uuurgghhh I cringe so hard when people refer to themselves as 'the main character'. It's so disconnected from reality, and not in a good way.

Yeah even if he means it ironically, it's not a great turn of phrase. Implies a level of self-absorption.

Also...he forgot to bring adaptors. How?

I used to think youtubers acted dumb for likes and engagement but tbh, working with students for many years there does seem to be a steady increase in those that are supposedly academically strong but lack any common sense or logic at all. It's worrying some days considering the job roles they are training for

IDK if he's "playing dumb" or actually dumb sometimes. If he is playing dumb, I don't see how it is relatable in any way?? The "main character" trend is over and done with (thank God). Is he pandering to a younger Tiktok audience? I've been a long-time sub and its so jarring to see him infantilize himself instead of maturing like his OG audience.

Does it annoy anyone else when he makes jokes about his bank balance being low? He said in his Kylie Jenner video from today that his bank balance is like the numbers on the Squid Game uniforms (3 digits). We all know he's not actually living in poverty and it's honestly insulting for him to cosplay as poor when most people couldn't just up and move to Paris on a whim (not to mention have designer clothing, buy tons of books, etc.). I guess it's part of his quirky, relatable, "I hate capitalism" act but it's exactly that: an act. I know it's probably meant as sarcasm and I actually like Jack most of the time, but it's insulting when so many people are struggling to make ends meet.

Jack is the kind of person you meet at uni who always goes on about being "broke" while they have an upper-middle class family at home who would be able to send him money if he needed it, what they really mean is they've spent their student loan for that month, not all of their savings and any other income they might have. He can still pay for his phone bill, rent, wifi, living costs etc, he just wants to appear more "relatable" to his younger audience who are still in high school or at uni :rolleyes: It's so irritating to see people (not just Jack) put on this act.

Is this just an extension of what he used to say while at uni?

Didn't he go on and on about something, like being first generation, or being working class or something?
