i think the first time i realized arin was an asshole was when he was at a game grumps panel and some socially broken nerdy guy was asking him about his animation and used the word gimmick as a filler word to describe it and Arin (who I dont think had animated a single thing in like 5 years at the time) went "ARE YOU CALLING MY ANIMATION A GIMMICK?" and tried to menace the guy

After that I started noting just more and more aggravating things about him. He endlessly nitpicks games he doesn't like and acts indignant that he "has" to play them for game grumps, acts like a huge bitch any time anyone calls them out about something, and in general just seems really unpleasant.

Game Grumps reminds me of other stuff like Critical Role and My Brother My Brother and Me that got popular with zoomers and younger millenials and tried to clean up their image a lot. Except those two are a lot better at looking corporate and proper, whereas when Arin and Dan try to do it they end up looking fake and obnoxious.
