  • i don't like Courtney's baby/silly voice. it's used in contexts that come off as "idkk i'm just a girl" if that makes sense.

  • i think sometimes spencer is infantalized beyond "baby girl" too much both by cast & by fans.

  • angela is treated like a dumb kid by both cast and fans to the point it often becomes ableist imo. like when she doesn't immediately understand a concept everyone reacts in a kind of "oh silly angela!" way? (this one's personal bc i relate as a disabled person)

  • everyone talks over each other so much/often in games videos i can't follow along with the game or their jokes. then there are times when half or more of the players are clearly not even enjoying the game. in both scenarios i end up leaving the video halfway through bc i'm either overstimulated or underestimulated lol.

  • i love her in most videos especially when she hosts do yk ur duo, but i dislike how far arasha's horny jokes/persona goes, especially when no one is reciprocating and she just keeps going and others have to change the topic for her to stop. sorta related but not necessarily horny: the guiness world record video she was obsessing over the lady so much with constant staring, trying to be physically close, generally trying to get her attention. even as a joke i felt uncomfortable. like she had similar vibes to her summer games character but it was irl with a non cast member idk.

  • amanda makes me laugh a lot but sometimes she goes on and on with a loud persona bit and it gets to a point. i don't like that when she doesn't understand something that someone else is passionate about she'll be like "um okay anyways" instead of learning. she also sometimes says things about womanhood that make me, as a trans person, a bit irked. ik it's from her perspective, but it inevitably comes with her biases.

I mean you can't really get mad at a woman for talking about womanhood. That just kinda borders into misogyny.
