...Say that five times fast.

I don't want to brag about someone losing their job instead of me ike she did. Just curious how long before she goes full bitch, and screams wrongful termination, or sexism. That's what i imagine they were scared of this whole time.

A few things. Note this is not aimed at you TC. But there are so many people I very much dislike happy about her firing.

She was joking about not being fired a few days ago.

It is sad G4 died again, but still not as sad as TechhTV dying.

According to one source, Kevin Pereira, the host of Attack of the Show!, is also set to leave G4 sometime in October. Pereira did not immediately respond to a request for comment

It was always weird to do this massive, multi faceted relaunch without testing the waters with a smaller, cost effective operation first.

On some level, they had to know this wasn't going to work.

Why should anyone want to save G4 when they were already made redundant by independent content creators on YouTube? Just let it go at this point and remember the good times you had with it in the past, bruh.

Frosk said she was excited to be a part of something she grew up watching as a child. But she noticed that every time G4 is brought up, even in their own YouTube channel, there are waves of backlash due to Frosk not being as "bangable" as previous female hosts.

"It has somehow become acceptable that you can talk about how much you jerk off to a woman as a compliment," Frosk said. "It's dehumanizing and it's weird. Women do not exist to be nice on the eyes for you. Olivia Munn didn't exist to be nice on the eyes for you."

It was never acceptable but just like this board's number of cringelords like vegy, certain dweebs just never learned how to tune off outside their jerk circle forums.

My thoughts as well. In any case, she seems to be keeping a low profile at the moment, which is likely for the best after she celebrated being the last person standing at G4 as if the layoffs were a corporate version of a battle royale, much to everyones chagrin.

To be fair, the only thing Georgie Boy cared about was getting at all that oil in the Middle East, no matter the consequences. Now that I think about it, didnt Senior also oversee an invasion of that part of the world back during Desert Storm?

I can't believe that guy who stood up to everyone and called out what he saw Bush down. Is not in the fucking back pocket of Trump. He lost his mind after his mother died. I know that is a hard pain, and just flipped his mind .

i don't even disagree with frosk, i'm just wondering why she thought it was a smart play to put both her employers and the entire viewerbase on blast during the middle of programming. and she was excited for this job? she wanted to keep it and see G4 succeed? she took the money, she was on the clock, there's a time and place for the soapbox. she can be correct in her message while still causing harm to the brand and herself, and that's what she did. not surprising that certain users here have to politicize it and insult anyone for calling it like it happened. it's business.

anyway, G4 is absolutely eating itself from within regardless with shows like... ugh... God of Work... have mercy. it never really had a chance, and the painful amouranth ball pit damage control bit only proved frosk right, lol

Cause it turns out that when some people really love something and want it to be successful they speak up about the sucky parts in hopes that those sucky parts go away.

Crazy concept I know.

Oddly enough, every time I've seen that quote it only includes the last two sentences.

Really kills the context and makes it seem like more of a non-sequitor.

yes, of course you can't even respond without the snide sarcasm. this is what i mean. sometimes if you want change for the better, you actually have to think about your actions instead of running your mouth just because you think you're punching up, or whatever. that seems to be the crazy concept.

basically she pulled CE shit on the air, instead of, you know, reminding herself she's at her job and perhaps some tact is required to see change over time.

I still try to watch attack of the show on YouTube, but unlike old g4 where it aired 5 days a week, now it's once a week, with crappy attempts at unrelated offshoot shows on other days. Hard to really ever catch it live when views matter most since they also have pretty random breaks, especially while these layoffs are happening.

Well now she's gone and gamers can finally rise up and regain their channel now that bad woman is no longer there holding up a mirror to their behavior.

Of course that's not actually gonna happen because the former Cheaters-network is actually outdated and no longer serves a purpose now that everygamer and their mother has their own favorite YT or twitch personality to watch. Blaming the decline on Frosk is just disengenuous cope from people that didn't know it's actually less than a compliment to tell a woman she's great spank material.

i didn't say otherwise. my question is why the fuck would she want to work there to begin with if the heads of the company, and its target demographic are largely deplorable? obviously it wasn't in hopes that it would change, since she pulled a sapper operation to blow it up at its foundation, lol. frosk may not be solely responsible for where G4's at right now, but i think it's reasonable to say that if G4's a zombie, she definitely gave it a nice blow to the head
