Views are down, he needed this thumbnail, even if it means showing his girlfriend affection. This is Alfie’s ‘lie back and think of England’ face. And it’s worked! Kind of funny looking at how much better videos with Zoe in the thumbnail still do...and how his snowboarding trip with tha boyz is flagging so far behind any others. Seems that the first day didn’t need to rely so heavily on her face as he benefited from a brief surge in festive feeling he was not able to sustain.
Image if Alfie gave her a fraction of the attention in real life he does when choosing his thumbnails...
Start of new vlog, an exceptionally painful misuse of “up.” In China he went to a ‘space where they were making all the samples’ (anyone else think fancy sweatshop?) and ‘designing everything up.’ You mean they were designing everything. No “up.” Ah I just find it so annoying.
I did lol at “so inspiring for future self” though. I don’t think he realises China’s huge manufacturing economy isn’t down to creative design or innovation as much as cheap production costs and low wages. But then I also don’t think he realises ‘future self’ isn’t a clothing brand and he isn’t Tom Ford.
EDIT- So they are “switching up” accommodation halfway through the trip. (No they are “switching.”) And “we’ll understand why” when they are there. Surely it will be because the brand Alfie is working with is putting them up for a few days? Or something equally straightforward?
Two my most hated Alfie habits there, in one idiotic burst (“up” and acting like the simplest things are difficult to understand). I feel unwell.
