    People forget that the Try Guys couldn't LEGALLY say a lot when it happened because who was in the HR department? Yep. Wife Guy.

    Keith hit the nail on the head about why the SNL skit didn't work -- they were trying to minimize the situation and didn't make any punches at Ned at all. SNL boiled it down to this undeserved rage over a "consensual kiss," and it wasn't that. This was a boss of a company having a year-long affair with an employee, where they not only slept with each other, but also went out on very public dates; SNL tried to act like it was outlandish to hold men in power accountable for their actions (which given their own allegations shouldn't be shocking). I think the reason this became such a scandal is because there are SOOO many layers to how many people this affected, apart from just Ariel, the kids, and Will. It deeply wounded the partners involved (I will always stan Ariel) but it also had the potential to destroy years of work, not just from the guys, but also from all the 2nd Try employees and the guys' side projects. It was messy.

    I never side eyed the other Try Guys when Ned did what he did because they didn't know until Reddit caught him and once they got confirmation about the affair they got rid of him. They didn't cover for him. They didn't let years of friendship to the point of found family hood cloud their judgement. He had to go for professional and for personal reasons. Nobody wants to be friends with someone who lies so easily and after all the facts were put out there, they moved on. They didn't milk it. And honestly, all of them are better off without Ned. The chemistry is better, the videos are better, and they're happy so as a longtime fan, I'm happy. I hope Ariel left Ned in the aftermath like Alexandria's fiance left her. I hope the children are doing all right regardless of their parents marital status. As Ned and Alexandria, they can both stay off the internet and lay in the bed they made with their selfish decisions.

      @@manejimenez8601 it’s not just them thinking they are smart. To “fill their bucket,” and feel things (since many narcs, ASPD, BPD do extreme things) they push the boundaries. When they don’t get caught, don’t cause their expected chaos, etc. they up the ante each subsequent time.
      It’s similar to how lotto jackpots keep increasing until someone finally wins. These people keep on going until they are held accountable, or have a major crisis. Even then, it will only be a temporary lull until they need to fill their void (bucket) again.
      Many people like this describe themselves as seeing others feel and experience emotions but that they cannot do it themselves. They learn to mimic what feelings look like but they often don’t feel the same feelings or feel them in the same way. It’s a muted internal response. So these people have to go way overboard just to experience the stimulation of feelings or to fulfill their boredom.

They made a point of not uploading something in a similar style or attitude to their regular content to show that this wasn't for content, it wasn't something to joke about, that there were huge repercussions for lots of people, that the situation had caused a lot of people pain and created way more work, and that the actions of one person could seriously tarnish the reputation of a brand that so many people had worked for years to build.

    I went through an engagement breakup, and I idealized Ned and Ariel, so it really was a huge shock to me.

    I met Bill Nye outside of a hotel where I was at an industry wedding years ago, and he was a lovely and very kind person. Not proof of anything, but I found it hilarious that he was a little starstruck by the bride while I was so incredibly blown away starstruck I was standing next to BILL FREAKING NYE.

  • @maleficentmistressofallevi3252

    Controversial opinion but they’re both to blame (Alex and Ned). Just because she’s a woman in this case doesn’t mean she didn’t also contribute to just as much of a downfall, and the pain that resulted in it. She wasn’t tricked or deceived, she was in videos too. She knew Ariel, she knew the business- not like he claimed he wasn’t married. Fully aware, fully to blame. Not defending Ned at all, he deserves the full brunt of everything he is getting and doesn’t deserve another chance with Ariel at all. But that’s her choice. Anyway I hate seeing Alex defenders when there’s literally no way she wasn’t also equally to blame.

    to them it must've been something so small that they truly believe it was an over reaction. Because they don't understand how important the relationship with the audience is.
