WAAAAAAHHHH, COMMENTS HURT OUR FEELINGS! /SNIFFLES

It's weird. The Grumps have a huge internal support network (each other) compared to other youtubers who still interact with their fans. And apparently Arin said something about their target audience being 11? That's not knowing your fanbase. Most polls that have been taken seem to indicate that at least a large minority of their fans are in their teens to twenties. I don't understand how they lack the emotional fortitude to read the comments. Can you imagine if they were famous enough that a really large amount of people gave a shit about what they do? Enough that stuff was written about them in gossip rags or talked about on tv? They'd have to become hermits. Heck, despite hundreds to thousands of fans begging for their attention, despite being a group channel with people like wives who know what the fuck their going through, despite being friends with other youtubers who can somehow still pull through looking at what their fans have to say despite meanies on the internet, despite fucking Ross who I cant believe puts up with this and Brian who I'm surprised hasn't told them they're acting like children, they somehow can't bear to look at the comments section or go on their undying hugbox of a subreddit. Look, every youtuber I know of has said it's shit to read mean things about yourself like that and I'm sure it is. Yet every last one of them, somehow, pulls through it and in someway interacts with their audience. And weirdly, none of them have a hugbox, most don't have best friends or SO's they see everyday to fall back on. Yet somehow, they don't die. I have to agree. Dan and Arin, you're fucking adults. Act like it.
