I'm vietnamese and hearing rice's mom talk about him in vietnamese shows how dissapointed she is with him. She probably went to america with little to no english skills looking for a better life. Chances are she had nothing when she came so it must be devastating to see her son throw money around like it's nothing.
Oh cool, I've been hoping to hear from someone who speaks the language. Do you find the subtitles for his mother to be accurate? Also, there is a section at the 5 minutes and 3 seconds mark of RiceGum's "MOM BEATS ME UP FOR BUYING $100 UNDERWEAR" video where he doesn't subtitle and he gulps nervously; it looks like she startled him. What does she say there? Thanks in advance, if you feel like sitting through that :)
His subtitles are pretty accurate but i don't think it shows how dissapointed she is. In the underwear video she said: "go return it, why are you bragging to me about a 75$ underwear, why are you wasting my money". I guess he was left speechless by how mad she was and he couldn't tell her that he was flexing, therefore revealing to her that he has spent more money on more stupid shit. Love the content btw, keep it up !
"That's like two months of my salary." Flexing on his own mother who raised him, having a working-class income, and recorded it because he thinks her reaction was funny and because he needs views. This is just sad. Wtf.
but. what if he's attempting to 'get back' at her for hurting him in the past?; maybe he needs empathy because he didn't get it as a child, but now he's won the rat race of making money and is trying to show the person who introduced him to it. Ⅎ┴M 𝓭𝓸𝓸𝓭
ningis Doesn't mean it gives you a free pass of being such a grade-A asshole to the person who gave birth and raised you from dirt. Ricegum should've know this, but considering how much of an entitled brat he is, it's no surprise how he ended up being such a disappointment to his own mother.
@@mfThump I guess that's a reason to feel sympathy towards him if that were the case. But even considering that, he still feels like a young child who is trying to rub his expensive things onto someone he feels is lower than him. Even in her replies (which he poorly translated as well as giving her a more malicious tone), she is worried for him because of the amount he spends. Which tells me something about how he was treated at a younger age. This just makes me think that he simply did not get everything he wanted as a child and became angry over it.
I think its has something to do with the fact that his audience is young children. Like, rubbing your wealth into your parents faces is something that an entitled 12-year old, who didn't get his third console for christmas, thinks would be totally cool behaviour.
He's probably trying to impress them. He doesn't get that it doesn't make him look like a success, it makes him look like an OD or a car crash. He's a stupid kid who got too much money and fame too quickly.
He's just so stupid and ungrateful. His mother worked her whole life to provide for him, just for him to become some bimbo on the internet with way too much money that he rubs in her face.
Just gonna clear up some translations because ricegum's manipulates these so much and I'm Vietnamese. What ricegum's mom said more accuratly translates to "why did you have to buy that?" Which in my opinion is even worst. She also didn't say why are you wasting money, she is asking him why money is so meaningless to him. She is pretty pissed that her son trys to piss her off on purpose. The one that's pisses me off the most is how his mom just doesn't want him to call her when he buys expensive items and he acts like his mom is a bad person on the translation.
Man what a dick. I won't even say he's wrong or stupid for buying stupid expensive shit, I mean it's his money and he made it and it came easily so whatever, waste it if you want dude that's fine. But why go out of your way to make sure your mom knows how much you're wasting and is upset about it? Why not just buy the shit and enjoy it and let her be blissfully unaware and secure in the fact that you are at least currently feeding, clothing, and sheltering yourself quite effectively?
Also, she DID NOT SWEAR when she talked to him. Viet moms don’t do that because they don’t want to be bad influences to their kids. I pissed me off that he tried to make her sound malicious. And what she said at the end ‘(When you) call (to talk about things like that), it hurts me and I cannot sleep.’ I mean, dude come on.
@@ThanhNguyen-ky9vr Yeah Im vietnamese too and his translation are exaggerated. She never cursed and was just really disappointed at him, she wasn't really mad. One of her words literally translate to "this type of stuff you do really hurts me, I can't sleep well" It's disgusting how he treats his own mom like that
I'm listening to the mom (im viet) and it's heartbreaking... she said at one point "buy whatever, don't call me. If you buy anything expensive, don't call me. You hurt me every time you call and I can't sleep at night." EDIT: HOLY CRAP I DID NOT REALIZE THAT THIS COMMENT WENT OFF, couple of things i wanted to clear up 1) yes, he translated it, but it's not really the right translation. he translates her in a "gangster" kind of fashion 2) yup nguyen is a popular last name lolllll i did not realize there was another commenter by the name of luke until yall said so
metaphysicalgraffiti Two of my best friends are Nguyen’s, ten of the people I hate most are Nguyen’s. The middle school I attended in 7th grade had exactly 69 Nguyen’s out of like 400 people, in just 7th grade.
His mom is the true victim in all of this Imagine the pain she feels, watching the child she spent the better part of her life raising act like an absolute buffoon in front of millions of people
lol it's all just acting on youtube, in a behind-the-scenes video, she hugged and said she's proud of rice with a contented face ( so don't feel bad for her when she's proud of her child) , and In the videos he brought his parents in, they all looked so happy , his net worth is currently 8 mil so I think they will have a better life than most of you. and they weren't even poor , they lived in Las Vegas with an average economy, since Rice wasn't popular yet
@Bill Blass Here ruclips.net/video/GstY54bpsso/видео.html I saw her proud bright eyes with him. a few more videos with his parents that I'm lazy to find, most of his videos are acting for entertainment, his parents and friends were with him, so don't be too serious
Honestly, when I clicked on this video I expected for it to just be someone reiterating the points that iDubbbz made in his content cop, but you actually brought a lot of new stuff to the table. I didn’t think it was possible for me to hate Rice any more than I already did, but you proved me wrong. Absolutely eviscerating. Well done.
littleblueclovers Yes, poor mom. Her son turned out to be a fucking idiot. She doesn't deserve that shit. Let's hope he grows up one day and better sooner than later.. or it might be too late to apologize.
asian parents don't like being reliant to their kids, no matter how rich their kids ended up being. they take pride in making a living on their own, and work until they reach retirement age, and some may even work pass that.
The Block Hell I don’t think so Yes, some do work till retirement even if their kids are rich. Some do not rely on their kids But I think most of them rely on their kids after retirement Also, Asian parents is an awfully big area It is probably gonna not be true for all of them Try south east Asia or Vietnam
@@chuuchu6078 even with diamonds I think it's stupid to buy such expensive shoes if you can't wear them. You'll have to walk in the dirt , in water , dust and other stuff with those it will only get dirty or damaged. What a waste of money... ^^""
Yeah I'm loving this channel so far. He doesn't just do lazy jokes, he actually analyzes the subject and uses humor to deliver the idea or whatever. A lot if people trying "this type" of video, always nice to find someone who is good at it.
@@jimmyhopkins1 content cop gets like 10x that, and keep in mind this comment was made over a year ago which means there was probably significantly less views at the time
13:06 - 13:16 almost made me cry... I was raped when i was 13 and i almost turned to prostitution, he explained it very throughly how it felt and i only realize it now
He resents his parents for not raising him to be rich and spoiled like his dream. Now that he feels accomplished doing nothing, he feels entitled to run in his parents faces what he feels he never received. He's pretty entitled and heartless.
lol it's all just acting on youtube, in a behind-the-scenes video, she hugged and said she's proud of rice with a contented face ( so don't feel bad for her when she's proud of her child) , and In the videos he brought his parents in, they all looked so happy , his net worth is currently 8 mil so I think they will have a better life than most of you. and they weren't even poor , they lived in Las Vegas with an average economy, since Rice wasn't popular yet
@@Jester8492 you are misinformed my friend India no longer has a caste system and fun fact in India the so called 'lower castes' , receive reservations in government jobs , colleges and schools. India has already had a female Prime Minister and the current President of India is from a "lower caste" community. I don't need to research all this information because I'm Indian . (Pardon my English it is not my first language)
I kinda feel bad for rice's mom, she probably came from a family who didn't have alot of money, enough money to get by but not enough to get nice things. She then came to America to like make something of herself, to have a nice job and a family who she cares a lot for. And after all this after all the hardhsips she went through she's know the mother of a kid who doesn't understand the value of money, a kid who doens't know that all his money can be gone in an instant. That's why she probably tells him to become a doctor, because she knows that one day his youtube career will be over.
She's Vietnamese, has low wages, and lives in the west US, so most likely she's South Vietnamese and came here with no money to live a better life after the communists took over Vietnam. She's seen war and the power of brainwashing/selective education, so she wants her son to go through all his education in a good place. Now her son is constantly wasting money and being a horrible influence to kids. She must be one of the most disappointed parents of RUclipsrs.
@ElephantsLover pls dont speak like you even studied history. You clearly are not knowledgeable to comprehend any of the thing you just said. The fact that use accuse VN gov of doing this things is so stupid and misinformed that i sure you just made it up to hate over some foreign country. But pls know that your misunderstanding could teach some impressionable young mind the wrong idea of history ... For Example The people who leave VN after the revolution was mostly rich and well off NO one in the lower class: factory worker, farmer would ever go to refugee from the north VN when they are trying to free them, they would fly or board passenger ship i cant even find any of the thing you mention and even so alots of VN people will go study abroad and find work opportunity outside if they are talented, rice mom could have been born in america and have VN parent or come to work there before give birth to Rice IN CONCLUSION you are a FUCKING IDIOT.
@@thanhlam8763 in the maritime museum of the Australian Navy in Sydney harbour, if you go there, you can find a tiny fishing boat anchored next to a large warship converted to a museum. That tiny fishing boat was one among many used by Southern Vietnamese who fled South Vietnam after 1975. They are called "boat people" or "thuyền nhân" in Vietnamese. The current government carefully scrub the records of the true number of people who fled the country or perished at sea. Some boats san; others boarded by pirates, who kidnapped the prettier women for god knows what. Many of these refugees are still alive everywhere from Australia to America. You can ask them if you can find one.
@@VT-mw2zb the assumption that she come from north VN in the 1975 is still very baseless specially by those fishing boat. Which is rarely record in history not mentioning the fact that, its unlikely to happen consider many different ways that she could had come to america. Even then my criticism still stand about the lack of knowledge on subject matter of ElephantsLover.
Ricegum, as much as I hate to admit it, went from rags to riches. He was poor. Most children of immigrants are. She asks him why money means nothing to him in the video.
@@bigman489 do you even know the guy? some people desperately want to go to good universities that are incredibly expensive so stop assuming people are idiots like you
mshesh16 but see that would be a mature and intelligent thing to do. But, being in some over the top mansion in L.A fulfills all his materialistic dreams. He literally has show money, nothing else. Eventually, his channel will die down to the point that Gum will have to downgrade and for Gum that’s akin to death.
Chairman Meow i like nerd city better. I feel like he uses way better facts, proof, and the whole layout and editing of the video is better. No hate to him but, I’d rather watch this.
@Tall Jakee She said that in English, so it isn't a translation. He's actually flexing on a woman who makes just above minimum wage; and additionally, if that was the only income in the family (which I hope it isn't, because this poor woman has obviously been through enough), that is not very far above the poverty line. Like, close enough to the poverty line that a back injury that put her out of work for a month would put her below the poverty line.
On top of being witty and putting together a gorgeous video, I think you did a great thing by addressing the way Ricegum mocked that girl. While idubbbz did bring up his scummy rape comment, I am so glad you highlighted the psychology of sexual abuse and underscored how truly horrible he is for not only saying disgusting things to/about her, but rubbing it right in her face-literally. She seems good-natured despite what she’s gone through and that douchebag took advantage of her. So thank you for spending a good chunk of the video on that. Subscribed :)
Yup, I figured there would be "brooooo booooored!", and "women aren't people", but pretty much nothing. Dr. Downvote had to embellish a little. It's actually really hard to get into a caveman's mindset.
William Haire hahahaha, indeed. I liked this version much better. It'd be hard to make an entertaining video while also staying true to just how vacant that mind is. The lights are dim, and nobody is home.
Nerd City Well you’re bringing property prices down at least. You do what you can. When my bank account makes it out of the red I’ll be donating to your patreon to insure your neighbors stay terrified. Thanks for the free content man.
K.i.D Oh he will be poor btw. That guy will either be robbed of all his money or he will throw it away on chinese slaveware, prostitutes and blow. You'd be amazed how fast your money will go, but that will for you to find out when you blow away all your parents money.
@@nerdcity I only just discovered your channel and this video and my reaction to it was just immense sadness. Especially in the part where he calls his mother and she´s disappointed that his attention on her is only there to flex rather than a genuine interest or care. I don´t care what he does with his life but I hope he learns to at the very least appreciate the people around him
For me the saddest part while he was flexing on his mom was when she asked if that was all he hd to say to her. Like, imagine working so hard for the majority of your life so you can give your kid a better life, and then when your kid finally gets big, all they wanna call you for is to upset you. I wonder what she was hoping he might call her about. Maybe to tell her about how things were going, or ask how things were going for her? Maybe see if she wanted to spend some time together or give her some money so she could finally retire? Or even just hoping he would say that he appreciated all she did for him and that he loved her? As I grow older I realize just how much parents appreciate when their kids do things like that. I’m sure if the only thing I ever wanted to talk to my parents about is how I can waste so much money now, they’d be quite heartbroken by it. That’s what I get when I see that section of the video.
Yeah, why the fuck he is not paying her salary when it's that low?? That's ridiculous and breaks my heart. Sshe could easily be spending the last of her years doing something besides working at whatever shitty job she's wasting her time at, because her son could easily just give her the whole the next year of her salary, tomorrow. Allow her to actually retire. Give her what I'm sure would be the first time she actually has had the time to relax.
i applaud this channel for not only its clever content, but apparently the only RUclips channel that knows how to insert ad content at proper break points in the narrative
If rice continues this in a few years he will fall. It is inevitable as youtube fame is fleeting and can barely be held together. And once that happens he might be forced to move back in with his mom. And judging by what a little piece of crap he hqs been to her, I hope she shuts the door in his face. Because this is the worst way you can treat your parents
She won't mom's don't work like that. Especially a mom who enabled her son to grow like that... Naw, a mom like that is too awesome. She's gonna tan his little mid-twenties hide too. Might even give us a chance to watch.
Nerd City's editing physically exhausts me. Not because it's bad or boring, to the contrary it's so meticulous that imagining all the work it took is giving me secondhand fatigue.
Why he's even relevant still is beyond me. he ridiculed a rape survivor and basically shared the idea she wants it to everyone ON HIS MASSIVE PLATFORM. Hes excusing not only rape but belittled her as a human being and treated her like a prop and object for his entertainment. This is how aggressive abusers can form. Thank you so much for this video, it really covers the topic properly and puts things into perspective for individuals who haven't experienced sexual assault or don't understand psychology. I've always been a big fan but I can't thank you enough for using your platform to say all the things I wanted to say about this situation as a survivor.
Emily, I’m awfully sorry to hear you were put through that; I hope you’re okay. I agree with you, I found that pretty stunning. Doubling down was the one direction not to take it, and I think his reply would have come off better had he not tried to address that point at all.
@@nerdcity I really appreciate you reaching out and your concern, it means a lot to feel heard, honest. And I fully agree, whether or not the situation was in house or not he shouldn't have included it in the response much less said what he said in the first place.
"whobuubs and whatgum" best moment. Nerd city is like that extra special pricey cake you eat only once in few months, ussually very late and you enjoy every moment of it and you make it your special me-event. Love from czech rep.
Sky Max OMG that’s crazy. It’s so cool that there are so many people from so many places around the world that watch the same things. I know how stupid that sounds haha but sometimes you just get these surreal moments. I don’t know 😛
Whoa whoa whoa! You're the first person who I've seen mention that Ricegum intentionally buys expensive shit to piss off his mom. I already disliked him, but this is just another level. Doing that to his mother is so disrespectful. He calls her up on video chat, she thinks she'll get to have a nice conversation with her son, and all he wanted to do was rub $5,000 shoes in her face to intentionally make her mad.
rallaa - there were so many Rice Gum critiques in the aftermath, I kept waiting for one to address the financial humiliation of his mom, but it never happened. Those videos make me sick
rallaa I just want to bring her some home made cupcakes, put on a pot of tea and ask her to tell me about her day. It really hurts my heart that she's talking about a salary. If I had Rice Gum money, all my mom would have to worry about is what colour chairs she would want to put in the library I would build for her. Or how many seats she would need in her home theatre.
It's even worse because I think she has some food items in her kitchen you can only buy during holidays like Lunar New Year. I just feel so bad for her and to have that on the counter in the shot to let everyone know you disrespect everything your parents have ever worked for is terrible.
I know that this video is literally almost 3 years old, but as someone who is a rape victim, her behavior towards Rice feels like she is trying her best to take back her power. If she can use this humiliating moment where someone she looks up to asked her if being raped "felt good" to mask that it didn't hurt and only empowered her more, it might just make that trauma hurt less. Now, obviously, I could be 100% wrong, but as someone who has been in her shoes, it just feels like she's trying her best to move on from being so publicly humiliated again.
Dude your videos are so friggen immaculate. Its like pristine perfection at every second. I swear its like you are a youtube god. You deserve millions of subs, your videos have higher quality and better writing than basically EVERY CHANNEL IN EXISTENCE.
A little overexaggerated But given what you said "A little over the top" Is still god damn good I think pristine is the most fitting word you used BUT Even though this is very very good content it seems to be god level only because there is so much repetative shit out there Still subbed and liked Would also consider donating
I have an asain mom and yes, she does complain about me "wasting" my money (i have a hobby than is somewhat expensive) , but not in a hundred years would i ever make fun of her for it. I know that she grew up poor and has worked very hard for a comfortable life for both her and I. Frankly ricegum made me want to go tell her how thankful i am for working her ass off while raising me.
Watched Contect cop, and you realised you hate ricegum. Watched Nerd City, and you deepen your disgust toward ricegum. Do you know just how heartbreaking it is to see his mom like that? The worse part is that the child himself doesn't even realised his wrongdoings. Damn, I hope I won't become such a living being.
Nerd City dude I gotta say I really appreciate your works. Not only it is entertaining, but at the same time, it educating. It teachs me to see things in other POV, not just one. Keep up the good work, bro~
The whole, "I'm bored..." concept is SO TRUE. I teach blind children and that's one of the 1st lessons I teach them is to NOT SAY OR PARTICIPATE in "Bored", "boring" behaviors.
I might sound like the ultimate virgin, buti highly value exotic dancers like you because you provide an outlet for the primal human carnel desire to mate, and im sure a good chunk of your customers really value you for helping them release themselves after many stressful days and hours at work and not having a lover to help them destress, so you should really better value yourself because as inhonorable as society labels your profession, you are actually helping many men in society
It's okay nothing wrong with that profession. My dad dated several exotic dancers as I was growing up and they were some of the sweetest, most genuine people I've ever met.
I love how much more concerned random RUclips commenters are about Ricegum's mom than he is. Kinda makes me want to send her a Mothers' Day present, not gonna lie.....
Jesus this is on the same level as content cop, maybe even better. The way you analyzed him is the shit dude. I am so happy to have found your channel; I'm binging all your videos right now. Thank you for the great content man. Greetings from The Netherlands
honestly these nerd city “videos” (read as: well-produced documentaries) and content cops are on such a high plane, these are the only youtube videos i can really sit down and immerse myself in. i love it. this is probably my 5th time watching this.
idubbbz's diss track: "I'm going to reiterate all the facts I stated in my Content Cop video with actual points about why I don't like Rice as an artist or a person combined with clever lyrics that my very talented friend boyinaband helped me write." Ricegum's diss track: "I'm gonna disprove the guy who accused me of flexing on my fans by doing nothing but flexing throughout the video and because I have no actual points to make against idubbbz I'm just gonna call him gay for me! Oh and even after the music ends I'm just gonna keep throwing my temper tantrum of a rap and not shut the fuck up! God I'm a musical genius!"
It is a diss track, but it's a fucking lazy diss track. He makes fun of Ian's head (two or three times), compares him to a school shooter (three times), calls Ian a nerd (same ammount as the other two) and takes a few pot shots at H3H3 and pewds. He only has like three lines of original points and in all of those he only makes himself look dumb. The rest of the song is him flexing about the same shit he usually flexes. Oh and he repeats a part of his diss (he probably did it as a chorus, but it just seems lazy since it only comes up one time before the beat cuts). Even by his own standards the track was a dud.
Sarjohn It is a diss track. But a terrible one. Instead of criticizing iDubbbz (which is pretty hard, i’ll admit), he just made fun of his appearance. And half of the “roasts” aren’t even valid, he just calls him a school shooter and gay several times.
He is pathetic. It's even more sad that it turns out he uses a ghostwriter. I mean, isn't the point of that to have them create some fire for you? If that's what his ghostwriter has been writing for him all this then just imagine how shitty his writing raps must be. I bet it's just as bad as his actual rapping.
Being a second generation south east asian, idk how he can just flex on his mom who most likely had to work so hard to get to where shes at just to raise her kid with a better life then hers, like how can you waste all that money just to flex and not give back to them as thank you
I am so glad that I am not the only one who thinks that Ricegum is the Asian version of the Logan brothers. And Wow! The way he treats is Mom is so disrespectful and gross.
the biggest question i have from this is- why is RiceGums mom even working? It better fully be by choice. And he better send her a paycheck every freaking month damn
I know where you're coming from but many parents don't want to do anything with their children's money. In my family, everybody minds his own business, for example when my foreign grandparents want to come visit, I am not even allowed to pay for the plane. I feel like his mom does the same thing out of (really unreasonable) love to her son.
Who knows maybe Gum boy gave them a new house or a car to help them out but the parent wants to keep working. That's how I imagine my parents would act if I'm as rich as Gum boy. I'll give them good living conditions but my Dad would definitely still want to keep working because he doesn't want to heavily rely on his Kid. Its harmless Pride which isn't inherently bad.
People like his mom does not take hand outs. They're not idiots, like her son. Unfortunately she probably worked so much so idiots raised her son to be a complete idiot.
Frog1 Dog2, I feel like his idiocy was an innate ability, it was always there not from genetics, but from being a rare dying breed of fuckbois. There are still fuckbois but not as cancer as ricecum.
You know what really pissed me off about that "apology" to her? He could have genuinely apologised and said something like "I'm sorry, I kinda panicked because I didn’t know how to react to her telling me she got raped... I didn’t know what to do and I just let my mouth talk for me rather than thinking about it. Im ashamed of myself for that and I’m incredibly sorry to not only her but to you guys... blah blah blah." In fact, if he had just made a video accepting his shitty behaviour and (truthfully) say he's going to try and change his ways to become a better person and that he's just a dumb idiot that can't think about his actions like a fucking adult... I'm sure people would have been positive towards him for it. Rather than this bullshit.
Yeah he could have filmed anything he wanted to come across better. His instincts are so terrible, this was one of the worst possible ideas he could have had
Honestly, his point of "people change, that was 2 years ago" was actually good enough to at least somewhat get him off the hook. Not completely, but it would have at least lessened the negative impact. But no, he had to completely backtrack, it goes from "People grow up, I'm sorry for what I did 2 years ago" to "By the way, look at what iDubbbz did years ago, what I did was fine because others have changed too". It's like he asked others for actual, legitimate points to counter iDubbbz, but tried coming up with everything himself, so certain points were decent enough, while everything in-between was just bad
Also that was kinda iDubbbz's entire point of making Content Cops, to make people better. People just take the criticism and get mad, instead of seeing what kind of morons they are.
Forrest I don't regret it. He's kinda funny but not enough to keep me entertained. He also apparently doesnt like H3H3 very much which is a shame but hey, he can get better some day.
The only upside to not having discovered this channel earlier is having a backlog of amazing videos to binge on. This is high quality, entertaining, well-made, thoroughly researched content and I'm genuinely shocked you don't have millions of subscribers...yet. I honestly couldn't hit that sub button fast enough. Looking forward to seeing more from you.
yes, I couldn't agree more! I honestly find it criminal that he does not have more subscribers. 2nd favorite channel...only to internet historian due to his very pleasing voice.
Late as hell to this or not, its actually pretty upsetting looking at his mom’s reaction. You can see the true disappointment in her eyes and the realization that she truly did fail as a parent, independent of how hard she tried.
I wouldnt say she failed just that her son got influenced by other people during his development most likely due to the school system and the inner workings of the whole hype beast thing(yes i know hype beast is a new term but flexxing isnt)
I just saw this video and i totally see Rice in a different light. Before,i thought he was just a fundamentally flawed, insecure man child with godawfull content,but that never really bothered me since hes from the side of youtube i could never simpathize with(simple,flashy,empty,devoid of meaning or charisma,you know,there is a lot of those type that break the 3 million subs but you never heard of them ?),but after seeing the bits with hes mom.... That women is NOT acting,you can tell pretty clearly by her gaze and demeanor ,that shes very ashamed of hes son behaviour abd feels awfull to have raised such a piece of shit person. She probably struggled a lot when she was young to prosper and move to America just to see her child act like absolute shit ,being wastefull and unrespectfull besides superficial and meaningless. This made my day,to be fair,asi hate RiceGum channel and everything he represents
There are, however, musicians who transitioned onto RUclips. Boyinaband is an example. YMS has been a member of his indie band An Unkindness since around 2010, which is about when he started the series YourMovieSucks, and likely well before his channel got popular. So he semi-counts, I guess. One of his songs actually ended up getting spotted on RUclips and picked up by Blondie on one of their albums, so he technically has a writing credit on a professionally performed song.
Troye Sivan is probably the only true RUclipsr, aside from Bo Burnham, but Bo is more of a comic who uses music in his standup. But Justin Bieber, Carly Rae Jepsen, Tori Kelly, 5 Seconds of Summer, Charlie Puth, Shawn Mendes, James Bay, Alessia Cara, Halsey, and many more got started by just uploading their covers online and then being noticed by a newspaper or a talk show.
All The Artsy yea, but I think the main difference between Joji and all of them is that Joji was a RUclipsr in the sense that he made videos, played characters, wrote skits, etc. whereas people like Justin Beiber or Carly Rae Jepson were musicians who uploaded them playing music on RUclips and were “discovered” by the industry. Joji quit making videos and completely switched gears to make music. Even the music he made for his RUclips was completely different that the stuff he makes as a professional musician. That’s where he differs even from people like Jared Dines or Sarah Longfield who make content around the fact that they’re musicians so starting bands is just the next logical step for them.
I don't usually bring this up, but I was a stripper during college. I was raped, and so were many of the girls I worked with - a lot of them (including myself) before they entered the industry. Thank you for this video. You've said everything that needs to be said. What's so disgusting about this guy is that he's teaching the next generation to be sexist, judgmental, pseudoscience-embracing (the only video I've seen of his was a shitty one where he pretended his flat was haunted) assholes. That really pisses me off. As always, you're fucking awesome - you're the only channel that I've turned on notifications for, and the only channel where I click straight away if you have a new video. Thank you.
I think we need to sign a petition to get Ricegum deported from the country, I don't know where he's going to go, but as along as it's far away from here I'm good.
What are you fucking five? That is some fucked up logic right there, so your telling me that just because she was a stripper in her past, it's her fault if people wanted to rape her? Really? Are you that dense? PS -You know liking your own comments doesn't make you cool, just keep that in mind next time okay? :)
Renegade Spark well I can tell you that she was wrong on her own side she didn't need strip next to other boys or mans and she could easily think about the consequenses it's her fault. Fuck you too .
Ah yes, to quote idubbbz " That is the battle cry of someone who just lost" Have a good day, also can you say hi to your mom when she comes to pick you up from the daycare?
I didn't know that this quality of videos are available in my era. It's just awesome. The execution and everything was just out of the league. Awesome Content!!!
Binge watching these for the umpteenth time, this channel is too good for RUclips; or maybe RUclips isn’t good enough for NerdCity. I envy this channels editing, research, visuals, characters, and basically everything. Man.. these inspire me to no end. Truly a treasure.
If he is so rich why is his mother who looks like she is in her mid 60's still working for 2.5k a month? That's pretty much minimum in California. I don't get it. He could have put so much into a fund or investments and have her mom set for life, on the interest.
EXACTLY. In some ways that feels like none of my beezwax, but I can’t help but think he’d find sharing the wealth with his mom more thrilling than embarrassing her with his shoes.
This is the second time Ive watched this and I still can't figure out how this girl didn't slap Ricegum. Pretty sure she could have crowdfunded a good lawyer.
dude she was a payed hooker ...she's basically an actor in his pre scripted shit .. dont tell me you actually belived that rape story did ya ? its all fake boi... welcome to entertainment televi....uh..Youuutube!!
What evidence do you have she wasn't raped? None. If you had any, you'd have pointed it out already. The fact is that the overwhelming majority of women who work as exotic dancers have experienced some kind of sexual violation in their life. Based on statistics alone, its extremely likely her story is the truth. You're just a Ricegum fanboy (as evidenced by your barely literate brand of communication); so you make excuses for his douchebag behavior. The irony in your shitty attempt to defend him is IF Ricegum wrote that as a script, then he is that much more of an asshole. Not less. Then this wasn't spontaneous stupid shit that he said without thinking. A script would mean he put thought into this and that's the way he CHOSE to portray himself. According to you, after careful consideration, Ricegum decided it was a good idea to make light of the experience of being a rape victim. Any way you look at this, he is a terrible human being. Unless you're a blindly loyal, starry-eyed fan apparently. Enjoy your mom's basement, Catnium.
I love how his defence for saying he was broke is that, as a minor, he didn’t have his own income You can’t flex that you “came up from nothing” when you go from zero self income at the age of 12 and a slightly more-than-average income as a 20-something
still waiting for this channel to properly blow up. i could foresee a sudden mass influx of subscribers to content like this, especially from the h3h3/idubbbz/filthy frank demographic. its just as polished, if not more so, than what those channels mostly do, and it has the right comedy style and subjects.
Cute words. I wouldn't say *polished*. It has amazing editing, art style, and personality, but you're making it seem like NC has the shit down, at the moment. They're still playing second fiddle right now, albeit, a really good looking fiddle.
Hello. 2020 here. It's funny how Ricegum often says that people are "irrelevant". I completely had forgot he exist, until iDubbbz' Content Cop got on my recommended feed. Ricegum is the one who's irrelevant now.
It’s okay. He’ll blow up soon enough. I still remember when idubbbz was under 100k just two years ago. Now he’s almost at 6mil. Good content gets noticed; it just takes some time at first.
xNoWx Pluto5 Indeed, he is, just like E;R. Both of them have highly entertaining editing skills and their type of humour is more intelligent and feels kinda unique compared to other RUclipsrs. These two need more subs :3
Especially when she's making so little money, something she wouldn't do unless their family was poor. Ricegum could easily afford to pay her salary and let her take a break from working til her death. I'm still mad about it, I feel so bad for her.
i adoooorre the dr downvote series and this dude is really doing the lords work to put together these vids because he had to tolerate idek how many ricegum vids to research this. I especially admire that they spoke about the really vehement misogyny on display here without making a pariah of the rape victim who for whatever reason chose to involve herself with ricegum once more
Damn, ricegum's mom. Suddenly I feel a lot more invested in seeing ricegum turn around in a better direction. Feels unlikely at this point but hey, maybe in the last year of his popularity he'll actually save some of that cash.
SantaFire ` he is on the better path some people that never had shit would go on a ride and get what they need by any means neccassary even if it involves pain
fuk twelve your knee jerk reaction to any topic on ricegum is to go hard and put down anyone who dissents with his life choices? RUclips success if fickle. Rice is making enough cash that all he has to do is put away a few millions and he'll never have to worry about taking care of his parents or his own future and can then spend willynilly. Instead he's blowing half of what he gets on empty things to try and reaffirm that he's successful. It reeks of insecurity and bad life choices. If it wasn't for how much this was clearly hurting his mother I would be fine not giving a damn about his choices. Plenty of people waste their opportunity every year, the audience that watches him will grow out of him sooner or later and at that point he's either going to have savings or get a job. He could live easy with some self control or continue to buy needlessly over priced gucci.
fuck twelve So you admit ricegum is a total fucking loser and not only that you also admit you’re a bigger loser throwing a temper tantrum because you’re too stupid to understand
I’ve been in a weird position. I was only touched and told all these really weird things like “you remind me of my dead wife.” And “ I love you” and a bunch of other really personal things. I wasn’t raped but something was definitely going on. He was my math tutor so I was confused why this was getting less professional and why he would force me to hug him and he would kiss my cheek for an uncomfortable amount of time. I didn’t say anything for a while. I kept telling myself I’m overthinking this or I’m over reacting. When I talked to my friend who went to him as well she told me this didn’t happen to her. I thought that was weird. I still didn’t say anything though. I kept telling myself if he takes it further, or reasoning out his weird behavior. Eventually he was getting closer and closer to uncomfortable spots and he kept on kissing my cheek for longer even when I told him it made me uncomfortable. Soon went to a therapist for another thing and I really wasn’t going to say anything but I honestly was just so done with being so uncomfortable. I thought my parents would be mad at me, or say that I made it up. When I told my therapist she asked if I wanted to tell my parents and I asked if she could do it for me. To my surprise my parents where very understanding and let me not go to him anymore. I used to think that if I was in a situation like that I would be able to speak up. It’s really not that easy. Its embarrassing and I felt like part of it was my fault.
I’m sorry you felt that way. Facts are facts though, you told him it made you uncomfortable and he didn’t respect your boundaries, the guy was a fucking creep and good on you for getting help and reaching out, you should be proud of yourself, it’s not easy to do.
Im sorry for the situation you went through Honestly it seems easy to just tell your parents if something like this happens but i guess it's not. I hope you get better
People like Dan Bull, NicePeter, EpicLloyd, BoyInABand, etc. actually have talent JP and RG do not They need to cease and desist *EDIT: Also, what his did to his mom is just....why? So many people have actual bad parents, and yet here RG is bullying his own mother.
Is anyone else just excited upon seeing this particular intro and the subsequent content? I truly appreciate the enormous effort that goes into these videos
So dude lives in a massive house, buys shoes more expensive than 3 iPhone Xs, flexs on everyone with his nice cars and shit.. But he does none of this for his mother? He isn't going to buy anything for her, but instead he's going to embarrass her and put her down for not having money? Fucking christ, ANOTHER reason to hate him
Kye Davies you raised way more questions than you solved. Why were you looking at his crotch? Do you really think women/ or men for that matter value one specific thing related to the anatomy of a partner that much? I think that you and most of the people who commented on this thread are penis obsessed fuckboys who think that a girl would be all over you if only your penis wasn’t so pathetic. Well, you’re wrong, they wouldn’t want to be around you anyway.

I'm vietnamese and hearing rice's mom talk about him in vietnamese shows how dissapointed she is with him. She probably went to america with little to no english skills looking for a better life. Chances are she had nothing when she came so it must be devastating to see her son throw money around like it's nothing.
Oh cool, I've been hoping to hear from someone who speaks the language. Do you find the subtitles for his mother to be accurate? Also, there is a section at the 5 minutes and 3 seconds mark of RiceGum's "MOM BEATS ME UP FOR BUYING $100 UNDERWEAR" video where he doesn't subtitle and he gulps nervously; it looks like she startled him. What does she say there? Thanks in advance, if you feel like sitting through that :)
His subtitles are pretty accurate but i don't think it shows how dissapointed she is. In the underwear video she said: "go return it, why are you bragging to me about a 75$ underwear, why are you wasting my money". I guess he was left speechless by how mad she was and he couldn't tell her that he was flexing, therefore revealing to her that he has spent more money on more stupid shit. Love the content btw, keep it up !
Thank you for the insight!
Luke Nguyen wait he’s fucking viet... fuck...
In hard truth it's her fault, there's a point where you can belt your child
"That's like two months of my salary." Flexing on his own mother who raised him, having a working-class income, and recorded it because he thinks her reaction was funny and because he needs views.
This is just sad. Wtf.
Agree. Found that despicable, and he did it a lot
Nerd City I didn't see that part😳
but. what if he's attempting to 'get back' at her for hurting him in the past?; maybe he needs empathy because he didn't get it as a child, but now he's won the rat race of making money and is trying to show the person who introduced him to it.
Ⅎ┴M 𝓭𝓸𝓸𝓭
ningis Doesn't mean it gives you a free pass of being such a grade-A asshole to the person who gave birth and raised you from dirt. Ricegum should've know this, but considering how much of an entitled brat he is, it's no surprise how he ended up being such a disappointment to his own mother.
@@mfThump I guess that's a reason to feel sympathy towards him if that were the case.
But even considering that, he still feels like a young child who is trying to rub his expensive things onto someone he feels is lower than him.
Even in her replies (which he poorly translated as well as giving her a more malicious tone), she is worried for him because of the amount he spends. Which tells me something about how he was treated at a younger age.
This just makes me think that he simply did not get everything he wanted as a child and became angry over it.
Man I feel bad for his mom she legit looks so disappointed in him. Like who honestly flexes on your own parents.
Dickheads
Shitdicks
Wait he flexes on his mum wtf
I think its has something to do with the fact that his audience is young children. Like, rubbing your wealth into your parents faces is something that an entitled 12-year old, who didn't get his third console for christmas, thinks would be totally cool behaviour.
He's probably trying to impress them. He doesn't get that it doesn't make him look like a success, it makes him look like an OD or a car crash.
He's a stupid kid who got too much money and fame too quickly.
Hearing his mother say "That's all you'll tell me tonight? That's it? ...Just to make me mad?" makes me sad.
Even sadder when she said she couldn't sleep at night when he does this shit.
He's just so stupid and ungrateful. His mother worked her whole life to provide for him, just for him to become some bimbo on the internet with way too much money that he rubs in her face.
Just gonna clear up some translations because ricegum's manipulates these so much and I'm Vietnamese.
What ricegum's mom said more accuratly translates to "why did you have to buy that?" Which in my opinion is even worst.
She also didn't say why are you wasting money, she is asking him why money is so meaningless to him.
She is pretty pissed that her son trys to piss her off on purpose.
The one that's pisses me off the most is how his mom just doesn't want him to call her when he buys expensive items and he acts like his mom is a bad person on the translation.
Wow. Thank you for this very necessary input.
Thanks so much, this really adds some context
Man what a dick. I won't even say he's wrong or stupid for buying stupid expensive shit, I mean it's his money and he made it and it came easily so whatever, waste it if you want dude that's fine. But why go out of your way to make sure your mom knows how much you're wasting and is upset about it? Why not just buy the shit and enjoy it and let her be blissfully unaware and secure in the fact that you are at least currently feeding, clothing, and sheltering yourself quite effectively?
Also, she DID NOT SWEAR when she talked to him. Viet moms don’t do that because they don’t want to be bad influences to their kids. I pissed me off that he tried to make her sound malicious. And what she said at the end ‘(When you) call (to talk about things like that), it hurts me and I cannot sleep.’ I mean, dude come on.
@@ThanhNguyen-ky9vr Yeah Im vietnamese too and his translation are exaggerated. She never cursed and was just really disappointed at him, she wasn't really mad. One of her words literally translate to "this type of stuff you do really hurts me, I can't sleep well" It's disgusting how he treats his own mom like that
I'm listening to the mom (im viet) and it's heartbreaking... she said at one point "buy whatever, don't call me. If you buy anything expensive, don't call me. You hurt me every time you call and I can't sleep at night."
EDIT: HOLY CRAP I DID NOT REALIZE THAT THIS COMMENT WENT OFF, couple of things i wanted to clear up
1) yes, he translated it, but it's not really the right translation. he translates her in a "gangster" kind of fashion
2) yup nguyen is a popular last name lolllll i did not realize there was another commenter by the name of luke until yall said so
And I oop-
Lol you’re a Nguyen like EVERY fucking Vietnamese person I know and I live in a town where they constitute the plurality.

His mom is the true victim in all of this
Imagine the pain she feels, watching the child she spent the better part of her life raising act like an absolute buffoon in front of millions of people
Agreed, the pain in her eyes is painful. She said some stuff in Vietnamese that was probably sad too.
lol it's all just acting on youtube, in a behind-the-scenes video, she hugged and said she's proud of rice with a contented face ( so don't feel bad for her when she's proud of her child) , and In the videos he brought his parents in, they all looked so happy , his net worth is currently 8 mil so I think they will have a better life than most of you. and they weren't even poor , they lived in Las Vegas with an average economy, since Rice wasn't popular yet
@Bill Blass Here ruclips.net/video/GstY54bpsso/видео.html I saw her proud bright eyes with him. a few more videos with his parents that I'm lazy to find, most of his videos are acting for entertainment, his parents and friends were with him, so don't be too serious
His mom isn't the victim. He was raised by her and we don't know what the fuck she was like.
Or his dad. It's their fault he turned out like that.
Did she know about his flexing on youtube or just has a little information about it

I didn’t think it was possible for me to hate Rice any more than I already did, but you proved me wrong. Absolutely eviscerating. Well done.
How does this have no replies (excluding mine)
The mom part actually made me really sad he couldn’t even help here finically then he calls her only to flex on her for ad revenue
Seeing ricescum's mom genuinely broke my heart.
He deserves a proper whopping for that alone.

Most of the shoes he gets are from freee lol. Goat sponsorship
asian parents don't like being reliant to their kids, no matter how rich their kids ended up being. they take pride in making a living on their own, and work until they reach retirement age, and some may even work pass that.
The Block Hell I don’t think so
Yes, some do work till retirement even if their kids are rich. Some do not rely on their kids
But I think most of them rely on their kids after retirement

@@Jester8492 you are misinformed my friend
India no longer has a caste system and fun fact in India the so called 'lower castes' , receive reservations in government jobs , colleges and schools. India has already had a female Prime Minister and the current President of India is from a "lower caste" community. I don't need to research all this information because I'm Indian . (Pardon my English it is not my first language)
I kinda feel bad for rice's mom, she probably came from a family who didn't have alot of money, enough money to get by but not enough to get nice things. She then came to America to like make something of herself, to have a nice job and a family who she cares a lot for. And after all this after all the hardhsips she went through she's know the mother of a kid who doesn't understand the value of money, a kid who doens't know that all his money can be gone in an instant.
That's why she probably tells him to become a doctor, because she knows that one day his youtube career will be over.
She's Vietnamese, has low wages, and lives in the west US, so most likely she's South Vietnamese and came here with no money to live a better life after the communists took over Vietnam. She's seen war and the power of brainwashing/selective education, so she wants her son to go through all his education in a good place.
Now her son is constantly wasting money and being a horrible influence to kids. She must be one of the most disappointed parents of RUclipsrs.
@ElephantsLover pls dont speak like you even studied history. You clearly are not knowledgeable to comprehend any of the thing you just said. The fact that use accuse VN gov of doing this things is so stupid and misinformed that i sure you just made it up to hate over some foreign country. But pls know that your misunderstanding could teach some impressionable young mind the wrong idea of history ...
For Example The people who leave VN after the revolution was mostly rich and well off NO one in the lower class: factory worker, farmer would ever go to refugee from the north VN when they are trying to free them, they would fly or board passenger ship i cant even find any of the thing you mention and even so alots of VN people will go study abroad and find work opportunity outside if they are talented, rice mom could have been born in america and have VN parent or come to work there before give birth to Rice
IN CONCLUSION you are a FUCKING IDIOT.
@@thanhlam8763 in the maritime museum of the Australian Navy in Sydney harbour, if you go there, you can find a tiny fishing boat anchored next to a large warship converted to a museum. That tiny fishing boat was one among many used by Southern Vietnamese who fled South Vietnam after 1975.
They are called "boat people" or "thuyền nhân" in Vietnamese. The current government carefully scrub the records of the true number of people who fled the country or perished at sea. Some boats san; others boarded by pirates, who kidnapped the prettier women for god knows what.

@Tall Jakee no someone knew the language, and translated what the mom said and it was even worse
@Tall Jakee She said that in English, so it isn't a translation. He's actually flexing on a woman who makes just above minimum wage; and additionally, if that was the only income in the family (which I hope it isn't, because this poor woman has obviously been through enough), that is not very far above the poverty line. Like, close enough to the poverty line that a back injury that put her out of work for a month would put her below the poverty line.
On top of being witty and putting together a gorgeous video, I think you did a great thing by addressing the way Ricegum mocked that girl. While idubbbz did bring up his scummy rape comment, I am so glad you highlighted the psychology of sexual abuse and underscored how truly horrible he is for not only saying disgusting things to/about her, but rubbing it right in her face-literally. She seems good-natured despite what she’s gone through and that douchebag took advantage of her. So thank you for spending a good chunk of the video on that. Subscribed :)

That guy will either be robbed of all his money or he will throw it away on chinese slaveware, prostitutes and blow. You'd be amazed how fast your money will go, but that will for you to find out when you blow away all your parents money.
K.i.D
The edge is real. Go back to your Naruto right now young man.

Really makes me mad the way he talks to his mother
Yeah that made me sick. I came out of the research thinking his mom is a lot smarter and more reasonable than her son
@@nerdcity I only just discovered your channel and this video and my reaction to it was just immense sadness. Especially in the part where he calls his mother and she´s disappointed that his attention on her is only there to flex rather than a genuine interest or care. I don´t care what he does with his life but I hope he learns to at the very least appreciate the people around him
Makes me really mad the way he talks in general.
i will never understand people with blatant disrespect for someone that raised them and taught them everything they know
For me the saddest part while he was flexing on his mom was when she asked if that was all he hd to say to her. Like, imagine working so hard for the majority of your life so you can give your kid a better life, and then when your kid finally gets big, all they wanna call you for is to upset you. I wonder what she was hoping he might call her about. Maybe to tell her about how things were going, or ask how things were going for her? Maybe see if she wanted to spend some time together or give her some money so she could finally retire? Or even just hoping he would say that he appreciated all she did for him and that he loved her?
As I grow older I realize just how much parents appreciate when their kids do things like that. I’m sure if the only thing I ever wanted to talk to my parents about is how I can waste so much money now, they’d be quite heartbroken by it. That’s what I get when I see that section of the video.
Yeah, why the fuck he is not paying her salary when it's that low?? That's ridiculous and breaks my heart. Sshe could easily be spending the last of her years doing something besides working at whatever shitty job she's wasting her time at, because her son could easily just give her the whole the next year of her salary, tomorrow. Allow her to actually retire. Give her what I'm sure would be the first time she actually has had the time to relax.
@@sorryifoldcomment8596 Yeah, I did a bit of math and she makes like 14 dollars a hour
If this video was age restricted it would have 0 dislikes
That’s so painfully true
True
@Lewd Jared i dont think so
Nah the 8 year old's would use their mom's account
They would probably make fake accounts
I just found one of my new favorite youtube channels. Loving the production level and depth of these man.
Thanks bakerXderek, glad you’re here!
You need to watch all of his videos! I found him in the Price Ea Era and they are all amazing! BINGEWORTHY!
bakerXderek just found this channel today and have been wondering why I haven't found it sooner
Cody South he deserves so many more subs and views!!!!!
Reylynn_Jin hell yeah he does!
Nerd City is like a holiday. I stop what I'm doing and watch it.
CloudTears NAILED IT.
Here I am again watching this in October 2019. It’s still perfection in every way. Your content is gold man.
i can never get enough nerd city content! the videos are well thought out, don't go off topic and highlight some of the lesser known stuff on youtube
anti ricegum videos always have a re-watchability for most, i just can't get enough of it
Good art never gets stale.
Same, except May 2020
Still fantastic in september 2020
i applaud this channel for not only its clever content, but apparently the only RUclips channel that knows how to insert ad content at proper break points in the narrative
Under-rated comment
I really wished iDubbbz covered the stuff about Rice's mom, because that's fucking heartbreaking. I feel so sorry for her.
Razur he did briefly. Nerd City drove it home, but dubbz took a swing.
To be fair, if idubbbz covered ALL the reasons why RiceGum is an asshole the video would have been about a year long
If rice continues this in a few years he will fall. It is inevitable as youtube fame is fleeting and can barely be held together. And once that happens he might be forced to move back in with his mom. And judging by what a little piece of crap he hqs been to her, I hope she shuts the door in his face. Because this is the worst way you can treat your parents
She won't mom's don't work like that. Especially a mom who enabled her son to grow like that... Naw, a mom like that is too awesome. She's gonna tan his little mid-twenties hide too. Might even give us a chance to watch.
He was definitely aware of it. Senpai didn't like it either.
Phillip Defranco as 'the teacher' killed me.
Me too
Once he was a little shit like the rest of us, now he's matured into one of the teachers.
Nerd City's editing physically exhausts me. Not because it's bad or boring, to the contrary it's so meticulous that imagining all the work it took is giving me secondhand fatigue.
Why he's even relevant still is beyond me. he ridiculed a rape survivor and basically shared the idea she wants it to everyone ON HIS MASSIVE PLATFORM. Hes excusing not only rape but belittled her as a human being and treated her like a prop and object for his entertainment. This is how aggressive abusers can form.
Thank you so much for this video, it really covers the topic properly and puts things into perspective for individuals who haven't experienced sexual assault or don't understand psychology. I've always been a big fan but I can't thank you enough for using your platform to say all the things I wanted to say about this situation as a survivor.
Emily, I’m awfully sorry to hear you were put through that; I hope you’re okay.
I agree with you, I found that pretty stunning. Doubling down was the one direction not to take it, and I think his reply would have come off better had he not tried to address that point at all.
@@nerdcity I really appreciate you reaching out and your concern, it means a lot to feel heard, honest.
And I fully agree, whether or not the situation was in house or not he shouldn't have included it in the response much less said what he said in the first place.
Because cancel culture is a myth and powerful/rich men will go unpunished no matter how heinous they act.
@@elfpi55-bigB0O85 When's the last time you've heard anything about Ricegum?
"whobuubs and whatgum" best moment. Nerd city is like that extra special pricey cake you eat only once in few months, ussually very late and you enjoy every moment of it and you make it your special me-event.
Love from czech rep.
Sky Max this is so accurate.
That's so true! Also, hey! Já jsem taky Ceska! (don't have a Czech keyboard rip)
Sky Max oh hey, so have you heard of DJ PON3 aka Scraton? He's from there too.
Sky Max This comment is perfect!
Sky Max OMG that’s crazy. It’s so cool that there are so many people from so many places around the world that watch the same things. I know how stupid that sounds haha but sometimes you just get these surreal moments. I don’t know 😛
Whoa whoa whoa! You're the first person who I've seen mention that Ricegum intentionally buys expensive shit to piss off his mom. I already disliked him, but this is just another level. Doing that to his mother is so disrespectful.
He calls her up on video chat, she thinks she'll get to have a nice conversation with her son, and all he wanted to do was rub $5,000 shoes in her face to intentionally make her mad.
rallaa - there were so many Rice Gum critiques in the aftermath, I kept waiting for one to address the financial humiliation of his mom, but it never happened. Those videos make me sick
rallaa I just want to bring her some home made cupcakes, put on a pot of tea and ask her to tell me about her day.
It really hurts my heart that she's talking about a salary. If I had Rice Gum money, all my mom would have to worry about is what colour chairs she would want to put in the library I would build for her. Or how many seats she would need in her home theatre.
anny05 - wholesome scenario, I appreciate where your head’s at.
It's even worse because I think she has some food items in her kitchen you can only buy during holidays like Lunar New Year. I just feel so bad for her and to have that on the counter in the shot to let everyone know you disrespect everything your parents have ever worked for is terrible.
rallaa
He legit leeches off his mom’s disappointment and sadness and doesn’t value anything she did for him. Dude is a piece of shit holy fuck
I know that this video is literally almost 3 years old, but as someone who is a rape victim, her behavior towards Rice feels like she is trying her best to take back her power. If she can use this humiliating moment where someone she looks up to asked her if being raped "felt good" to mask that it didn't hurt and only empowered her more, it might just make that trauma hurt less. Now, obviously, I could be 100% wrong, but as someone who has been in her shoes, it just feels like she's trying her best to move on from being so publicly humiliated again.
youre so strong and i also hope that that was the case for the girl in the video where she was just trying to keep the jokes from hurting her too much
I cant even imagine the effort you put into this video. Damn, I'm dead haha
KathLady should have seen the 2 most recent try hards.
i was literally thinking the same thing
KathLady I know right lol this guy's content is amazing
Shag504 Yep. This man needs to get on trending page one day.
Rip, you’ll be missed. Prayers to your family.
Dude your videos are so friggen immaculate. Its like pristine perfection at every second.
I swear its like you are a youtube god. You deserve millions of subs, your videos have higher quality and better writing than basically EVERY CHANNEL IN EXISTENCE.
Ben Masta for real his editing is by far the best on RUclips
A little overexaggerated
But given what you said
"A little over the top"
Is still god damn good
I think pristine is the most fitting word you used
BUT
Even though this is very very good content it seems to be god level only because there is so much repetative shit out there
Still subbed and liked
Would also consider donating
see also, Captain Disilusion
I have an asain mom and yes, she does complain about me "wasting" my money (i have a hobby than is somewhat expensive) , but not in a hundred years would i ever make fun of her for it. I know that she grew up poor and has worked very hard for a comfortable life for both her and I. Frankly ricegum made me want to go tell her how thankful i am for working her ass off while raising me.
Good. You're a better son
If you want to do it I think you should
40k breaks bank lol
Go tell her!! I support you (^//^)
I was broke when I was a baby
I've never been in danger of starving or being homeless but damn it, it wasn't my money
“Blonde teen dominates ladyboy with micropeen”
I love little easter eggs like these.
Finally. You're legit the first to mention it.
Not to mention the the huge dick print in red sport shorts, clearly also part of that same joke...
Did you also notice the house listing said their favorite/best thing about the place was "the coke dealers"?! 😪 Lol
Ian didn't talk about rice's mom. Rice treats his mom like shit.
Feels bad
He probably didn't mention her out of respect for ricegums mum
Watched Contect cop, and you realised you hate ricegum.
Watched Nerd City, and you deepen your disgust toward ricegum.
Do you know just how heartbreaking it is to see his mom like that? The worse part is that the child himself doesn't even realised his wrongdoings. Damn, I hope I won't become such a living being.
The more I did research on Rice's channel, the more I respected his mom and hated him.
Nerd City dude I gotta say I really appreciate your works. Not only it is entertaining, but at the same time, it educating. It teachs me to see things in other POV, not just one. Keep up the good work, bro~
The whole, "I'm bored..." concept is SO TRUE. I teach blind children and that's one of the 1st lessons I teach them is to NOT SAY OR PARTICIPATE in "Bored", "boring" behaviors.
13:07 - 13:26
As an exotic dancer who started dancing because of an incredibly unhealthy relationship, that statement hit me like a semi-truck.
I hope your life is getting better, I’m sorry for you feeling that way
I might sound like the ultimate virgin, buti highly value exotic dancers like you because you provide an outlet for the primal human carnel desire to mate, and im sure a good chunk of your customers really value you for helping them release themselves after many stressful days and hours at work and not having a lover to help them destress, so you should really better value yourself because as inhonorable as society labels your profession, you are actually helping many men in society
@@frosty925 You coulda said that a lot less cringily. But not a terrible point.
It's okay nothing wrong with that profession. My dad dated several exotic dancers as I was growing up and they were some of the sweetest, most genuine people I've ever met.
Frosty wtf
I love how much more concerned random RUclips commenters are about Ricegum's mom than he is. Kinda makes me want to send her a Mothers' Day present, not gonna lie.....
bibliophilianApologist Same, I feel so bad for her.
Jesus this is on the same level as content cop, maybe even better. The way you analyzed him is the shit dude. I am so happy to have found your channel; I'm binging all your videos right now. Thank you for the great content man.
Greetings from The Netherlands
Thank you, I appreciate that!
honestly these nerd city “videos” (read as: well-produced documentaries) and content cops are on such a high plane, these are the only youtube videos i can really sit down and immerse myself in. i love it. this is probably my 5th time watching this.
I love how you layered the dollar bill mid-air so you were still behind it. Such attention to detail. Amazing.
TheRealTeal - I appreciate you spotting the little things I waste too many hours on :)
Amen
idubbbz's diss track: "I'm going to reiterate all the facts I stated in my Content Cop video with actual points about why I don't like Rice as an artist or a person combined with clever lyrics that my very talented friend boyinaband helped me write."
Ricegum's diss track: "I'm gonna disprove the guy who accused me of flexing on my fans by doing nothing but flexing throughout the video and because I have no actual points to make against idubbbz I'm just gonna call him gay for me! Oh and even after the music ends I'm just gonna keep throwing my temper tantrum of a rap and not shut the fuck up! God I'm a musical genius!"
Dont foget making fun of Ian's head. Since Rice is to rap what Leafy is to commentary channels.
It's a diss track, should he compliment him on his clothes or smth ?
It is a diss track, but it's a fucking lazy diss track. He makes fun of Ian's head (two or three times), compares him to a school shooter (three times), calls Ian a nerd (same ammount as the other two) and takes a few pot shots at H3H3 and pewds. He only has like three lines of original points and in all of those he only makes himself look dumb. The rest of the song is him flexing about the same shit he usually flexes. Oh and he repeats a part of his diss (he probably did it as a chorus, but it just seems lazy since it only comes up one time before the beat cuts).
Even by his own standards the track was a dud.
Sarjohn
It is a diss track. But a terrible one. Instead of criticizing iDubbbz (which is pretty hard, i’ll admit), he just made fun of his appearance. And half of the “roasts” aren’t even valid, he just calls him a school shooter and gay several times.
He is pathetic. It's even more sad that it turns out he uses a ghostwriter. I mean, isn't the point of that to have them create some fire for you? If that's what his ghostwriter has been writing for him all this then just imagine how shitty his writing raps must be. I bet it's just as bad as his actual rapping.
excellent insight & execution as always
Being a second generation south east asian, idk how he can just flex on his mom who most likely had to work so hard to get to where shes at just to raise her kid with a better life then hers, like how can you waste all that money just to flex and not give back to them as thank you
I am so glad that I am not the only one who thinks that Ricegum is the Asian version of the Logan brothers.
And Wow! The way he treats is Mom is so disrespectful and gross.
Kevin Jones at least Logan learned somewhat common sense
the biggest question i have from this is- why is RiceGums mom even working? It better fully be by choice. And he better send her a paycheck every freaking month damn
I know where you're coming from but many parents don't want to do anything with their children's money. In my family, everybody minds his own business, for example when my foreign grandparents want to come visit, I am not even allowed to pay for the plane. I feel like his mom does the same thing out of (really unreasonable) love to her son.
Who knows maybe Gum boy gave them a new house or a car to help them out but the parent wants to keep working. That's how I imagine my parents would act if I'm as rich as Gum boy. I'll give them good living conditions but my Dad would definitely still want to keep working because he doesn't want to heavily rely on his Kid. Its harmless Pride which isn't inherently bad.
She probably has more money then he does.
People like his mom does not take hand outs. They're not idiots, like her son.
Unfortunately she probably worked so much so idiots raised her son to be a complete idiot.
Frog1 Dog2, I feel like his idiocy was an innate ability, it was always there not from genetics, but from being a rare dying breed of fuckbois. There are still fuckbois but not as cancer as ricecum.
Honestly, man, this delivery was edited to perfection. Good job, dude.
Thank you my man!
He's really good with Adobe. I'm surprised other tubers haven't asked him to edit for them.
5:32 either Nerd City put something in his shorts for the Ricegum costume or I now understand why Nicky is with him
You know what really pissed me off about that "apology" to her? He could have genuinely apologised and said something like "I'm sorry, I kinda panicked because I didn’t know how to react to her telling me she got raped... I didn’t know what to do and I just let my mouth talk for me rather than thinking about it. Im ashamed of myself for that and I’m incredibly sorry to not only her but to you guys... blah blah blah."
In fact, if he had just made a video accepting his shitty behaviour and (truthfully) say he's going to try and change his ways to become a better person and that he's just a dumb idiot that can't think about his actions like a fucking adult... I'm sure people would have been positive towards him for it. Rather than this bullshit.
Yeah he could have filmed anything he wanted to come across better. His instincts are so terrible, this was one of the worst possible ideas he could have had
Honestly, his point of "people change, that was 2 years ago" was actually good enough to at least somewhat get him off the hook. Not completely, but it would have at least lessened the negative impact. But no, he had to completely backtrack, it goes from "People grow up, I'm sorry for what I did 2 years ago" to "By the way, look at what iDubbbz did years ago, what I did was fine because others have changed too".
It's like he asked others for actual, legitimate points to counter iDubbbz, but tried coming up with everything himself, so certain points were decent enough, while everything in-between was just bad
Also that was kinda iDubbbz's entire point of making Content Cops, to make people better. People just take the criticism and get mad, instead of seeing what kind of morons they are.
Amazing as always
I've seen you on a few different channels imma check you out after this vid
+Chicken Permission do you regret it
Nerd told me you ignored my beautiful fanart. Why
Chicken Permission I love me some Alex 😛
Forrest I don't regret it. He's kinda funny but not enough to keep me entertained. He also apparently doesnt like H3H3 very much which is a shame but hey, he can get better some day.
The only upside to not having discovered this channel earlier is having a backlog of amazing videos to binge on. This is high quality, entertaining, well-made, thoroughly researched content and I'm genuinely shocked you don't have millions of subscribers...yet.
I honestly couldn't hit that sub button fast enough. Looking forward to seeing more from you.
Thank you, Cooter Marie!
yes, I couldn't agree more! I honestly find it criminal that he does not have more subscribers. 2nd favorite channel...only to internet historian due to his very pleasing voice.
Cooter Marie I’m 6 months inda future and holy shit. I stayed up all night binging.
Late as hell to this or not, its actually pretty upsetting looking at his mom’s reaction. You can see the true disappointment in her eyes and the realization that she truly did fail as a parent, independent of how hard she tried.
I wouldnt say she failed just that her son got influenced by other people during his development most likely due to the school system and the inner workings of the whole hype beast thing(yes i know hype beast is a new term but flexxing isnt)

I just saw this video and i totally see Rice in a different light.
Before,i thought he was just a fundamentally flawed, insecure man child with godawfull content,but that never really bothered me since hes from the side of youtube i could never simpathize with(simple,flashy,empty,devoid of meaning or charisma,you know,there is a lot of those type that break the 3 million subs but you never heard of them ?),but after seeing the bits with hes mom....
That women is NOT acting,you can tell pretty clearly by her gaze and demeanor ,that shes very ashamed of hes son behaviour abd feels awfull to have raised such a piece of shit person.
She probably struggled a lot when she was young to prosper and move to America just to see her child act like absolute shit ,being wastefull and unrespectfull besides superficial and meaningless.
This made my day,to be fair,asi hate RiceGum channel and everything he represents
The only RUclipsr who successfully transitioned into the music industry, as far as I know, is Joji.
Hanhil Justin Bieber. Carly Rae Jepsen.
RIP Filthy Frank. Long Live Joji
There are, however, musicians who transitioned onto RUclips. Boyinaband is an example. YMS has been a member of his indie band An Unkindness since around 2010, which is about when he started the series YourMovieSucks, and likely well before his channel got popular. So he semi-counts, I guess. One of his songs actually ended up getting spotted on RUclips and picked up by Blondie on one of their albums, so he technically has a writing credit on a professionally performed song.
Troye Sivan is probably the only true RUclipsr, aside from Bo Burnham, but Bo is more of a comic who uses music in his standup. But Justin Bieber, Carly Rae Jepsen, Tori Kelly, 5 Seconds of Summer, Charlie Puth, Shawn Mendes, James Bay, Alessia Cara, Halsey, and many more got started by just uploading their covers online and then being noticed by a newspaper or a talk show.
All The Artsy yea, but I think the main difference between Joji and all of them is that Joji was a RUclipsr in the sense that he made videos, played characters, wrote skits, etc. whereas people like Justin Beiber or Carly Rae Jepson were musicians who uploaded them playing music on RUclips and were “discovered” by the industry. Joji quit making videos and completely switched gears to make music. Even the music he made for his RUclips was completely different that the stuff he makes as a professional musician. That’s where he differs even from people like Jared Dines or Sarah Longfield who make content around the fact that they’re musicians so starting bands is just the next logical step for them.
Shout out to maxmoefoe on cold ones for bringing me to 5:14

I don't usually bring this up, but I was a stripper during college. I was raped, and so were many of the girls I worked with - a lot of them (including myself) before they entered the industry. Thank you for this video. You've said everything that needs to be said. What's so disgusting about this guy is that he's teaching the next generation to be sexist, judgmental, pseudoscience-embracing (the only video I've seen of his was a shitty one where he pretended his flat was haunted) assholes. That really pisses me off.
As always, you're fucking awesome - you're the only channel that I've turned on notifications for, and the only channel where I click straight away if you have a new video. Thank you.
I think we need to sign a petition to get Ricegum deported from the country, I don't know where he's going to go, but as along as it's far away from here I'm good.
What are you fucking five? That is some fucked up logic right there, so your telling me that just because she was a stripper in her past, it's her fault if people wanted to rape her? Really? Are you that dense?
PS -You know liking your own comments doesn't make you cool, just keep that in mind next time okay? :)
Renegade Spark well I can tell you that she was wrong on her own side she didn't need strip next to other boys or mans and she could easily think about the consequenses it's her fault. Fuck you too .
Ah yes, to quote idubbbz " That is the battle cry of someone who just lost"
Have a good day, also can you say hi to your mom when she comes to pick you up from the daycare?
Coco _ lol could you stfu
Is it a good day? Did Nerd City uploading something? Then yeah, it's a good day.
d_0hm true dat
d_0hm agreed
I didn't know that this quality of videos are available in my era. It's just awesome. The execution and everything was just out of the league. Awesome Content!!!
Binge watching these for the umpteenth time, this channel is too good for RUclips; or maybe RUclips isn’t good enough for NerdCity.
I envy this channels editing, research, visuals, characters, and basically everything.
Man.. these inspire me to no end.
Truly a treasure.
If he is so rich why is his mother who looks like she is in her mid 60's still working for 2.5k a month? That's pretty much minimum in California. I don't get it. He could have put so much into a fund or investments and have her mom set for life, on the interest.
EXACTLY. In some ways that feels like none of my beezwax, but I can’t help but think he’d find sharing the wealth with his mom more thrilling than embarrassing her with his shoes.
seriously even most real rappers who brag about their money also brag about buying their moms' houses and shit
"My mom had money, but not me!" = Mommy didn't let me buy, everything that I wanted!
This is a content cop level of effort
Senpai!
B-but you're senpai!
This is the second time Ive watched this and I still can't figure out how this girl didn't slap Ricegum. Pretty sure she could have crowdfunded a good lawyer.
I would love to see that.
dude she was a payed hooker ...she's basically an actor in his pre scripted shit ..
dont tell me you actually belived that rape story did ya ?
its all fake boi...
welcome to entertainment televi....uh..Youuutube!!
What evidence do you have she wasn't raped? None. If you had any, you'd have pointed it out already. The fact is that the overwhelming majority of women who work as exotic dancers have experienced some kind of sexual violation in their life. Based on statistics alone, its extremely likely her story is the truth. You're just a Ricegum fanboy (as evidenced by your barely literate brand of communication); so you make excuses for his douchebag behavior. The irony in your shitty attempt to defend him is IF Ricegum wrote that as a script, then he is that much more of an asshole. Not less. Then this wasn't spontaneous stupid shit that he said without thinking. A script would mean he put thought into this and that's the way he CHOSE to portray himself. According to you, after careful consideration, Ricegum decided it was a good idea to make light of the experience of being a rape victim.
Any way you look at this, he is a terrible human being. Unless you're a blindly loyal, starry-eyed fan apparently. Enjoy your mom's basement, Catnium.
Catnium Evidence? If you have no evidence, then why should we believe you
I hate ricegum a LOT. fucking asshole. But the responsibility and weight to provide evidence is of the accuser .
I love how his defence for saying he was broke is that, as a minor, he didn’t have his own income
You can’t flex that you “came up from nothing” when you go from zero self income at the age of 12 and a slightly more-than-average income as a 20-something
still waiting for this channel to properly blow up. i could foresee a sudden mass influx of subscribers to content like this, especially from the h3h3/idubbbz/filthy frank demographic. its just as polished, if not more so, than what those channels mostly do, and it has the right comedy style and subjects.
Cute words. I wouldn't say *polished*. It has amazing editing, art style, and personality, but you're making it seem like NC has the shit down, at the moment. They're still playing second fiddle right now, albeit, a really good looking fiddle.
Finally some good content on RUclips.
Some perfect content to be exact
Someone to finally relate common sense with. I feel complete
Anything other than Fortnite content is good content
How are you gonna post that, knowing content cop exists...
finally, some good fucking food
The best part about his response video is that he used a Post Malone song. Someone who was IN idubbbz’s video!
Hello. 2020 here. It's funny how Ricegum often says that people are "irrelevant". I completely had forgot he exist, until iDubbbz' Content Cop got on my recommended feed. Ricegum is the one who's irrelevant now.
Your content is punk rock in video form.
Who wouldn’t love to hear that. What a comment.
Nerd City unless it's Good Charlotte
Hey jimbo
But that's not punk.
Punk rock is raw, idealistic and technically simple. This is more like Frank Zappa or jazz-fusion.
U are one of the most underrated youtubers
So true, I don't understand how they are not more popular with the time and effort put into the edits in these videos
it's true
It’s okay. He’ll blow up soon enough. I still remember when idubbbz was under 100k just two years ago. Now he’s almost at 6mil. Good content gets noticed; it just takes some time at first.
The most mainstream comment that i've ever seen.
xNoWx Pluto5 Indeed, he is, just like E;R. Both of them have highly entertaining editing skills and their type of humour is more intelligent and feels kinda unique compared to other RUclipsrs. These two need more subs :3
i dont understand how your videos dont get more attention
you have such high production value its amazing
please never stop
roxyiguess - thank you!
they will, i just found them and i think more people will
I know I'm late but I just realized his mother is still working while he lives the way he does, sad
Right?! jfc Ricegum, your mom did all that work to raise your sorry ass, stop flaunting your stupidly expensive bullshit in her face and SET HER UP!
Especially when she's making so little money, something she wouldn't do unless their family was poor. Ricegum could easily afford to pay her salary and let her take a break from working til her death. I'm still mad about it, I feel so bad for her.
I always tell my daughter that "only boring people get bored"
Nice. Remember that old Harvey Danger song "Flagbole Sitta" with lyric, "if you're bored than you're boring!" Nicky reminded me of that the other day.
i adoooorre the dr downvote series and this dude is really doing the lords work to put together these vids because he had to tolerate idek how many ricegum vids to research this. I especially admire that they spoke about the really vehement misogyny on display here without making a pariah of the rape victim who for whatever reason chose to involve herself with ricegum once more
Damn, ricegum's mom. Suddenly I feel a lot more invested in seeing ricegum turn around in a better direction. Feels unlikely at this point but hey, maybe in the last year of his popularity he'll actually save some of that cash.
SantaFire ` he is on the better path some people that never had shit would go on a ride and get what they need by any means neccassary even if it involves pain
SantaFire ` what you see on camera is not the same as you see off camera go out to the real world fake fuck
fuk twelve your knee jerk reaction to any topic on ricegum is to go hard and put down anyone who dissents with his life choices?
RUclips success if fickle. Rice is making enough cash that all he has to do is put away a few millions and he'll never have to worry about taking care of his parents or his own future and can then spend willynilly. Instead he's blowing half of what he gets on empty things to try and reaffirm that he's successful. It reeks of insecurity and bad life choices. If it wasn't for how much this was clearly hurting his mother I would be fine not giving a damn about his choices.
Plenty of people waste their opportunity every year, the audience that watches him will grow out of him sooner or later and at that point he's either going to have savings or get a job. He could live easy with some self control or continue to buy needlessly over priced gucci.
fuck twelve So you admit ricegum is a total fucking loser and not only that you also admit you’re a bigger loser throwing a temper tantrum because you’re too stupid to understand
2018 and he's making an idiot of himself in China
I’ve been in a weird position. I was only touched and told all these really weird things like “you remind me of my dead wife.” And “ I love you” and a bunch of other really personal things. I wasn’t raped but something was definitely going on. He was my math tutor so I was confused why this was getting less professional and why he would force me to hug him and he would kiss my cheek for an uncomfortable amount of time. I didn’t say anything for a while. I kept telling myself I’m overthinking this or I’m over reacting. When I talked to my friend who went to him as well she told me this didn’t happen to her. I thought that was weird. I still didn’t say anything though. I kept telling myself if he takes it further, or reasoning out his weird behavior. Eventually he was getting closer and closer to uncomfortable spots and he kept on kissing my cheek for longer even when I told him it made me uncomfortable. Soon went to a therapist for another thing and I really wasn’t going to say anything but I honestly was just so done with being so uncomfortable. I thought my parents would be mad at me, or say that I made it up. When I told my therapist she asked if I wanted to tell my parents and I asked if she could do it for me. To my surprise my parents where very understanding and let me not go to him anymore. I used to think that if I was in a situation like that I would be able to speak up. It’s really not that easy. Its embarrassing and I felt like part of it was my fault.
I’m sorry you felt that way. Facts are facts though, you told him it made you uncomfortable and he didn’t respect your boundaries, the guy was a fucking creep and good on you for getting help and reaching out, you should be proud of yourself, it’s not easy to do.
Im sorry for the situation you went through
Honestly it seems easy to just tell your parents if something like this happens but i guess it's not.
I hope you get better
I subbed immediately after the line, “Ooga Booga, I have a caveman brain”
😂😂😂😂😂😂
How much do you want to bet that Ricegum didn't even let that girl keep the money he sprayed at her? If it's even real money that is.
All $21 probably went right back in his demeaning toy gun
At least she did the whole thing for a good price, I hope
People like Dan Bull, NicePeter, EpicLloyd, BoyInABand, etc. actually have talent
JP and RG do not
They need to cease and desist
*EDIT: Also, what his did to his mom is just....why? So many people have actual bad parents, and yet here RG is bullying his own mother.
Don’t forget that Joji used to be known as pink guy
ghastlyrose; *he
Is anyone else just excited upon seeing this particular intro and the subsequent content? I truly appreciate the enormous effort that goes into these videos
Thank you!
So dude lives in a massive house, buys shoes more expensive than 3 iPhone Xs, flexs on everyone with his nice cars and shit..
But he does none of this for his mother? He isn't going to buy anything for her, but instead he's going to embarrass her and put her down for not having money? Fucking christ, ANOTHER reason to hate him
When he started crying i was about to cry cuz he was acting as bad as a 3 year old forced to be the main character in a play...
Yeah, pretty hard to tell what he was even going for with those fake tears.
5:14 now i know how tf he's pulling nikki
Holy shit definitely missed that
Big facts
That is about 1 ft soft.
I have a feeling it was just a joke, if not this dude has to have a world record dick which raises many more questions
Kye Davies you raised way more questions than you solved. Why were you looking at his crotch? Do you really think women/ or men for that matter value one specific thing related to the anatomy of a partner that much? I think that you and most of the people who commented on this thread are penis obsessed fuckboys who think that a girl would be all over you if only your penis wasn’t so pathetic. Well, you’re wrong, they wouldn’t want to be around you anyway.
Dr. Fleischkanu its a joke as ricegum is constantly trying to show how big of a dick he has
"Like he's my boyfriend who knows just where to put his fingers to make me squirm" I died
