Yep. More views and more sympathy (equals more engagement). OmG TIm, I HoPE ThAt YoU'Re Ok.
And I know first-hand that COVID is weird in how it infects, but are we to all seriously believe that both Jenn and J. have emerged "unscathed" after 2-3 bouts of "Tim-only" COVID at this point? I can't believe the stans buy their shit.
Would it still make him going to GKTW the right decision, even if we didn't know his recent COVID status? Nope.
But it sure would have caused less controversy if we didn't know. Sad to say that.
Got me to thinking - I often wonder why these two assholes don't "get" why there's 83 threads devoted to them on here when there's 0 devoted to the likes of, for example, Rick and Nikki of RixFlix.
It's not just haters and jealous trolls and "unwell 3" and all that crap. It's THEM.
Sure there's things that annoy me about Rick and stuff that could be discussed, but the Trackers just BRING these situations upon themselves with their absolute stupidity and diarrhea of the mouth, as well as contradictions, revisionist history, contorted and ever-changing stories, etc. over the course of a TON of years.
When they started to get #hosted with the big guys (e.g., Disney, Universal), they really should have taken the time to sit and sift through ALL of their back catalog and delete - delete - delete any questionable things they said / did (i.e., contagious, urban, etc.), dumbass videos, "hot chick eats poop," etc. -
anything that could be rendered in poor taste and even if that meant a loss of total views, whatever, cuz it would have been the right thing to do and the best proactive business decision.
Except that would require true self-awareness and self-reflection. Two things we know neither of them actually have. And now any wrongdoing on their part is chalked up to it being everyone
else's fault for calling them out.
