It was never straight up aggression; right? Humanity is juuust defending; vibing. And then annihilating the losers. Haha; wow; defensive af my man. Aaall in the name of peace.

If you notice he once said something about "narrative tripling". I believe Joseph Anderson, hbomberguy, downward thrust, captain princegaming or someone like that used in a videogame review. I do not remember which but I believe MauLer covered it on a EFAP. The word narrative tripling does not exist, but I believe the reviewer was trying to brag and sound important because he had a degree in English or something.

      @@Alpha1200 This is made up of ridiculous and nonsensical quotes and phrases from review videos he writes down while they are going through these videos on EFAP. People just use "big words" in these reviews and pretend they are knowledgeable that way ... while never ever providing a definition for them. Other people listening to them are then simply agreeing without questioning ... just like people agreed what a fine new set of clothes the Emperor was wearing ... while being naked. Basically MauLer is the child who says "but the Emperor has no clothes on" ... and this is why everyone from the movie-/game-review crowd hates him.
      Even the delivery - the "excessively WRONG pauses in the sentences" - is part of the ridicule, because some video essayists actually do that ... while reading from a script (so they could easily fix it by redoing it).
      MauLer makes a big point about DEFINITIONS of terms being very very important ... which they are or else we are talking past each other while saying the same thing. The classic example is subjectivity vs. objectivity ... This is why MauLer is NEEDED in these days of "redefining terms" in our everyday life, when you suddenly can be racist towards the irish for telling a joke, even though "irish" isnt actually a race.

    I tried to watch this a while back and left 10min in feeling like I was missing out on something that might provide some context. I shrugged off this feeling and a week ago I naturally discovered EFAP and caught up to the episode before April Fools.
    Coming back to this is the most gratifying experience I’ve had as of late and my sides and face hurt immensely, I love you, MauLer.

      I feel like there's also a reference to the Sokal hoax in there.

      I think that's actually supposed to be Mark Brown. He mentioned on one of the EFAP episodes that he based it off of his speech patterns.

    As much as the rest of the episode was hilarious, the final few minutes where you lampoon the sponsorships is the best part.

      How stupid are you, this isn't Rag's' video look at the channel. It's Word of Wolf, get your furries straight.
      Edit: This is a really strange error. I posted this reply to a different comment, but it was submitted to this one. Now I just look like I'm being a dick instead of shitposting. Are YT technicians playing April fools jokes on people?

    All the references to LOTR are fitting because this video had more endings than Return of the King.
