Bdubs: I’m—yes, I’m learning the, uh, the Twitter thing. The thing that I find funny, and I don’t know if this is being put on or not, but it’s almost like a secret sect area of Twitter that nobody’s supposed to know about. So you never @ somebody, you never tag somebody, but you talk about them, and you all communicate through the secret T-W-T phrase. Right?!
Bdubs: So Etho has a secret Twitter community. But, when the actual person that that Twitter is about—so it’s a secret community, you can talk about the person, but you don’t have to tag or @ them. And—but if that person shows up it’s like “Everybody scatter.” The mo—the number of replies I’ve seen that are people saying “Scatter! What is he doing here?” Like, “Get out!” Uh—is very funny. I’m learning. I’m—I’m—this is a whole new world to me. I’m having the best time.
Bdubs: I really couldn’t wait to talk to you guys about this twit-twit-this twitting thing that’s going on on the tweets. On the online? You guys. On the online, on a Twitter? There is a thing called slab T-W-T. And they are all talking in secret about Etho.
Bdubs: Oh man. The funniest thing. Somebody said, “All you have to do is look in a mirror and say Etho three times. He won’t appear, but Bdubs will appear behind you. Um—Bdubs will appear behind you anxious to see Etho as well. Or something like that. They worded it much better, I worded it like an old guy. But, um, I really love, I love this dark corner—it’s a dark dark corner of YouTube. It’s crazy! You guys—like, I had no idea this was a thing! How is this a thing?!
Bdubs: Somebody—what’d they tweet. Uh—somebody tweeted something, I have no idea who they are, and they got nine hundred likes! On the tweet—I don’t know how, like—M-C, M-C-Y-T burner tweeted an interaction I had, and got like nine thousand likes on it! What—how is—where is this dark hole?! Is it a cult? Close! Maybe!
[reading chat] Bdubs: “It’s Twitter, Bdubs. We gotta find each other somehow.”
Bdubs: @ me! I’m—I wanna be—I want in. Why has everything gotta be a secret. CCers—I had to look that up. That’s content creators. They’re not meant to find the stan Twitters. Stan T-twits. Aha. Voltz [?] that’s it, right? We’re not supposed to see it! Why not?! We got big egos! We need to feed—what—we’re starving out here! We’re browsing the @s—oh, who messaged me, who said something, oh they said I’m the best builder in the world, oh they said I’m jacked, they said that my muscles are huge. Ah! That made me feel good. That feeds my monster.
Bdubs: And—and then there’s this whole other feast going on! I could be feasting! And you’re doing it in secret. You’re hiding all the food. Er—suckling pig over there, and I ahven’t even had a bite. And I’m tall. See?! People are out there saying that, they say “Oh wow, he actually is tall.” But all I get—the only people that @ me are the people saying I’m short.
[reading chat] Bdubs: “Create an alt account?”
Bdubs: I want to come in as me. Moss and all.
[reading chat] Bdubs: “Please don’t look our way.”
Bdubs: See. (laugh) You really don’t love me. Otherwise you’d share some of that delicious wine. Alright, I’ll make a secret stan account. Or maybe I already have. No, I’m kidding, I haven’t. (clears throat) But I—I’m really happy that you guys are having fun, and I’m happy I found out that there’s like a different Twitter.
[reading chat] Bdubs: “How tall am I?”
Bdubs: I’m five ten. There’s a picture—you can find it, on the slab T-W-T, or maybe it’s on the traffic T-W-T—yeah, I’m gonna tell everybody what all of ‘em are. Traffic T-W-T is Third Life series. Yeah, that’s right. No more secrets! I’m sending everybody, and I’m gonna send ‘em mad. I’m just kidding. I’m just kidding.
Bdubs: Oh, let me just check the slab Twi—Twitter real quick. Slab Twi—Twit. Oh, looks like I’m still—everybody’s still scared of me.
Bdubs: I’m going to bring up an old Bdubs video! I play—of course! I play uh, an Etho video, since I’m his biggest fan, but let’s go through here.
Bdubs: How do you do, fellow kids? How do you do, fellow dark side of Twitter-ers? Talking about Etho as I am?
