Fanboy Friday: Bandana Mask Edition photo

It's time for another video roundup! It's been a while since we've seen what all the kids with webcams were up to, so let's check in.

...ok, I'll be honest. I haven't fully recovered from doing Heavy Rain last week, so I'm taking the easy way out and giving myself one extra week off from going through all those terrible forums. I think I've earned it.

Prepare yourself.

The Xbox360 totally sucks because it can't do 3d yet guys.

I GUARANTEE YOU'RE GONNA BE LIKE *idiotic face*

I don't really know what's going on here, but there's a really fancy filter, so I suppose what he's saying is right.

Look over there! It's an elusive Wii fanboy, spotted out in the wild. And let me tell you, he is NOT impressed with Microsoft.

Finally, this guy only fanboys out for about 30 seconds before rambling about other stuff, but I have a soft spot for fanboys in ridiculous bandana masks.

Whew. Not having to wade through 3000 comments has been nice. I'll be back at it next week though, so don't worry.

Who was your favorite video fanboy this week? Have any other recent ones to share? Post 'em below, and see you next Friday.

Man, I can't make it past the 30 second mark in any of these videos. Something about the elevation from text to video just makes it all to real, and even more horrific.

These people have the worst voices I've ever heard. Not to mention half these people have their facts flat out wrong. If you're going to be a fanboy, at least Wiki the system you're trying to trash so you don't wind up sounding like even more of a dipshit.

I sincerely hope I never meet these people. I will probably kick them in the face.

@Happy Chainsaw Man: I also found these people too retarded to watch for more than a few moments.

Still prefer the text editions. Knowing I can spell and they can't makes me happy :P

The hell was with that guy in the third video squealing over the sixaxis?

It's so unnatural hearing the voices behind these text comments.

The "guru" in the first video actually taught me something, I had no idea that blu-ray won the console wars. He should win the Nobel Peace prize for ending this dreadful war.

That was truly hard to watch. I both commend AND condemn this post.

Did anyone else read the title as "Banana Mask Edition?"

Also, I'm probably the only person on earth who has to refer to the Gwen Stafani song when trying to spell "Banana".

They make you watch this stuff? Dude, ask for a raise. Right now. Unless you've come to enjoy this segment of your job, in which case you should ask for some company sponsored therapy. And a fuzzy cat.

I actually can't spell b-a-n-a-n-a-s anymore without spelling it...CRAP.

See?

To be fair, Gwen Stefani just copied that bit from Dole, who had it years before her.

Am I the only one who wants to knock out that first kid's teeth for the excessive use of a derogatory term?

Oh, and the rest of these guys deserve their teeth knocked out, but for completely different reasons. Mainly for their "People can have an opinion as long as I agree with it" mentality. Civil disagreement is the foundation of any good society.

As I've said on the last Fanboy Friday I commented on, I'm going to set all those people on fire and watch them scream.

This is seriously painful. I struggled all the way until the filter video. I couldn't finish that one. The fact that this little kid (and everyone else in this article) actually WANTS themselves to look like what they do look like, that they filmed this video, reviewed it, and said "yes that is how I want to portray myself" is pathetic. In the literal sense. I feel bad for them. I hate them, yes, but I feel bad for them.

The only catharsis I've found so far is imagining throwing full cans of soup at their heads while they're making these videos.

This is so addicting, but I need to stop reading these. I feel myself lose my intelligence when I go through these.

I didn't bother giving the others a chance, but that last guy is fun to watch. I subscribed after watching his video about the New World Order. :)

video one- since you're adhering to sad stereotypes... you never make it slingin' dope if you can't count.
video two- too much mountain dew and not enough ass beating.
video three- idiot face... especially the eyebrow region.
video four- I stopped it as soon as the icypee intro music started. terrible. wrestling is fucking gay you clown penis.

Ural-Altaic languages are well suited to the use of syllabaries, as can be seen in Japanese Katakana script.
