Casually Screaming About Brandon Rogers

It's been a long time since I last posted a "Casually Screaming" post. I thought I'd take a break from writing about music and write about something else that consumes my life, YouTube.

I watch YouTube almost as much as I listen to music. One of my favorite YouTubers is Brandon Rogers. If you read my "The Only YouTubers I Watch Religiously" post, you'll remember Brandon ranked #3.

WARNING: EVERY VIDEO IN THIS POST IS OFFENSIVE - VIEW AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION

I got into his videos either my junior or senior year of high school. I believe that the first video I saw was Mad Tea Party, his Alice in Wonderland parody.

For some reason "Take your chair with you!" is the one quote from that whole video that stuck out to me. When I briefly had my Brandon fan account on Instagram, it was my username. Of course, I had previously seen memes and vines of clips from his videos such as "Try me, bitch" and the one where he bangs his head on the stove. You know the one.
I think I enjoy Brandon's videos because he still captures how YouTube used to be and he is not afraid to offend people with his videos, which I love especially since a lot of things - especially on YouTube - are PC now.
Though I will say my only criticism is that I only wish his videos were longer, but I'm not going to be mad if he never changes that. He gives us quality content.

His inactive posting schedule isn't bad, because he's always leaving us wanting more.

I really got into him when I was in college. I was dealing with depression so I turned to his videos a lot. I made a playlist of all his videos - at that time - and watched that playlist almost daily. My poor college roommate had to deal with that every single day for like 4 months.

When he had his show, Magic Funhouse, I really wanted to support him, but I was a poor unemployed college student who couldn't afford the subscription on the streaming site that had his show, but I supported him in spirit.

I did keep up with his Facebook show, Stuff & Sam. It was iconic. I very much religiously still keep up with his YouTube uploading. I'm pretty sure I have shared every video he's done since I became a fan on Facebook. And I will continue to do so.

I don't know if I have a favorite video, but I did enjoy his earlier videos where he recited the Jabberwocky poem and the bit from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory when they were in the tunnel. I wouldn't mind if he brought that style back.

Brandon's content is iconic, hilarious, offensive and he's earned his spot as my favorite YouTube comedian and one of my comedians period. Really wish I could have seen his stand-up in New York, but maybe next time he comes to the east coast, I'll catch him.

If you're not easily offended, check out his content. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I really enjoy his videos and I cannot wait to see what the future has in store for him.

Zac Efron and Garrett Clayton are Basically the Same Person

I, a 21-year-old adult, is still a HUGE fan of the High School Musical franchise. In high school, had I been a better planner, I would have asked Lucas Grabeel to be my prom date. And even though I was older than most viewers, I did love Teen Beach Movie when it came out. In this post, I am going to explain how Zac Efron and Garrett Clayton are basically the same person. Let's start at the beginning. You may know Zac Efron as Troy Bolton in the Disney Channel Original Movie (or DCOM), High School Musical and it's franchise. He is the attractive blue-eyed, protagonist of all three HSM movies. And I will admit that I was a huge fangirl for him in my youth. Honestly, now I can't stand him. But that's for another post. Zac portrayed Troy in all three HSM films, but he only sang in the last two. That's right. Zac Efron did not sing in the first HSM movie. That was the amazingly talented Drew Seeley whom I will love till the day I die. Similarly, Garrett Clayton pl...

Is Marvin from Falsettos Abusive? And Why is He Such an Easy Character to Hate?

Is Marvin abusive? Short answer: yes. Long answer: You've come to the right place. "I love my tight-knit family. I love the way they cook linguine." Let's get this out of the way, this blog, as all of my blog posts are, is 100% my opinion. Unless stated directly that it is fact, this is all what's going on in my mind. Thoughts from a fangirl, if you will. Also I have to use Spotify to link the songs, because the entire 2016 revival cast album is not on YouTube and I know the revival album better than the original albums. Also this post is going to be long because I'm actually going through actual lines from the musical. I am going to try to sprinkle some photos into this post. "Lovers come and lovers go." Listen to "Marvin Hits Trina" on Spotify. Let's start with the most obvious: Marvin hits Trina after learning that she's going to marry Mendel. Where can you find this scene? In "Marvin Hits Trina". It'...

That Time A President Conducted Meetings from the Toilet

Happy Monday! Another week ahead. This week's weird moment from history is how President Lyndon B. Johnson conducted meetings and interviews while on the toilet. I learned way too much about LBJ while doing research for this post and it is going to be a LONG time before I write another weird history post about him. But there will be at least another one in the future. Man was weird. Quick history lesson for my non-Americans who may not know who LBJ is. Lyndon Baines Johnson was the 36th President of the United States. He assumed the position following the assassination of John F. Kennedy. He was president from 1963 til 1969. NOW if you're like me and you grew up with the rewatching the movie Forrest Gump over and over again your first introduction to LBJ might be when Forrest was being honored with the Medal of Honor and showed the president where he was "shot in the buttocks" during the Vietnam War.  I haven't watched Forrest Gump in years, but if you haven't...
