The Holism

With my house suddenly quiet, kids off to bed, and TV off I decided to spend some time going over some of the earlier The Holism videos in YouTube that I have not seen before.  Out of curiosity I did some number crunching.   The Holism vlog gets on average over 6,300 views. I believe that is something that no other deaf vloggers can claim when it comes to average viewership.  Even one of his videos is clicking upward to almost 30,000 views, an unheard of number for any deaf vlogger to attain. My best vlog video has over 14,000 views (averaging 5, 177 views) but mine is an altogether different story when it comes to blogging. Yet Barry wins it hands down on getting the most on average viewships for his YouTube vlogs. 

If you don't know Barry you will find out that he provides a lot of useful insight. Watch his videos and you will see him as a down to earth person who is in tune with nature in the outdoors.  Although he has retired from making vlogs be sure to watch some of his videos (many are captioned) and you might learn a thing or two. One of these days I'm sure I'll meet him in person soon.  Who knows?

The Suckees and the Suckers....

I'm thinking about all the whiners out there who are unable to debate or argue intelligently and knowing when to disagree tactfully so. But instead they throw temper tantrums like a 6 year old kid because their "feelings" were hurt or felt "insulted" and how they demand that the offending person be removed for having an opinion that targeted no specific person. In life, how are they going to learn to suck it up once in a while? Of course, what I'm referring to is the whole DVTV debacle (not Tayler's but the whiners' own). For those who learn to "suck it up" when it comes to vloggers they find "offending" they know what to do by either ignoring the vlogger, put a block on him/her, or able to learn to control their emotions by not getting unnecessarily upset over it. They're called "Suckees." For those who refuse to put a block on the offending person in DVTV or refuse to ignore vlogs they don't like, they're called "Suckers." Why? Well, they are suckers for drama and would rather be on the sucker end of the joke. Weak-minded and unable to resist the need to have drama in their lives, and so they are the suckers.

People can disagree tactfully by voicing their displeasure or disagreement in a reasonable manner. I have no problems when it comes to disagreeing, even strongly, and be respectful about it. But to put on a drama show, stage protests, walk-outs, act intimidating in front of the camera, crying and demanding that the offending person be somehow banned, create vlogs specifically to harass, mock, show extreme hate, name calling, and so on against a person or vlogger they do not like for whatever reasons make them....Suckers. Because once they go down that path then you know they are unable to reasonable debate or argue effectively on why they disagree with that offending person's point of view or opinons. They are unable to agree to disagree and move on. They MUST have drama.

Suckees know what to do, say and act. They refuse to be suckers, and would rather be on the "suckees" end and not on not be "suckers." They learn how to suck it up and not let emotions cloud their judgements. They try and see from other people's point of views and perspectives. They try and see it objectively rather than emotionally. Suckers are unable to debate or argue their case cohesively and clearly, and are perhaps temporarily "crippled" mentally-wise. They are emotionally "crippled" in their own pool of thoughts on hate, contempt, derision, and anger. They are unable to be reasoned with, perhaps on a temporary basis, and how they are unable to objectively argue. In short, they throw themselves on the floor and do these temper tantrums like a 6 year old kid who can't get what he wants and demand that Mommy or Daddy do something about it to make him happy. You need to stop running to Tayler Mayer for every little vlogs that you don't like. Making a personal attack does not replace an effective, well thought out argument.Throwing a temper tantrum doesn't help, either.

And so, in the case of Barry (The Holism) in DVTV, you have the weak-minded group of people who cannot even use the basic common sense to use DVTV's block feature to block out any vloggers they do not like. If not DVTV but in YouTube, they are unable to avoid watching vloggers they don't like. But I suspect that many refuse to block certain people or through act of will power learn not to watch certain vloggers they do not like because many are simply addicted to drama. They want something to complain and whine about. Tayler Mayer is not your Mommy or Daddy for you to cry and run to. If you don't like certain vloggers in DVTV you can easily block that vlogger. Easy! Tayler Mayer already explained recently on how to do that by spoon feeding you that information. But for your own sake and sanity, it's better to avoid watching any vlogger that you don't like in the first place. Use your willpower to make sure of that and get that peace of mind.

I'm telling you. Suckers are addicted to dramas. They want that. They *THRIVE* on that. Suckees know better than to let emotion get the best of them. DVTV is an open book for the world to see and what do you think they see once they take a look at vloggers in DVTV ? A bunch of Suckers? Or a bunch of Suckees? 

Are you a sucker? Probably so. Prove me wrong.

Sign No Evil

Bordering on hate speech with derision and contempt against a deaf man and his kids and wife. Mental objectivity is no longer there when that happens. Carl needs to learn to let it go.

A puzzling irony.....

I was in an email discussion with a deaf person I know (a non-blogger/vlogger) who explained to me what he saw in some videos vlogs with the name Barry Sewell coming up. He further explained that one of the basic complaint from those vloggers is that Barry is trying to seek attention to himself in his vlogs. This was funny considering what my friend said about those vloggers who were doing the same thing by vlogging on much more frequent scale than Barry! Pretty ironic when it comes to complaining about others "seeking attention." Kind of like the pot calling the kettle black except it was done in poor fashion by actually whining to the video audience seeking their attention that Barry's videos were done to seek attention. I can only shake my head with this laughable irony. Except this time Barry wasn't doing the whining or complaining here. It was some of those vloggers. Maybe they need to take their own advice this time and not complain so much like a squealing stuck pig?

Now, I like Barry. He's a good conversationalist. He seeks to understand and learn a variety of things about life. He a natural outdoors fellow and love all things natural seen in nature. Loves horses and animals. There is something to be said for living out in the open land away from the congestion of polluted and crowded cities in favor of a more natural and spiritually enhancing place. There is nothing wrong with living in the great open spaces of America. In fact, it's one of the best places to go to seek refuge and peace for the sake of body, mind, and spirit. If you don't believe me then why do Americans take off on their vacation to go camping, visit the many great outdoors like Yellowstone Park, the forests, raft the rivers, swim in the lakes and such? If anybody is smart enough already it is to avoid the crowded cities or the rat race of city life. Like me, I seek the open spaces as well as much as possible. And I'm fortunate that I am able to experience that on a daily basis. So is Barry.

Avdism

I decided to write the word "avdism" from now on after seeing the Holism blog on the subject. The "v" letter replaces the "u" letter. The original word has been abused too much using it as a weapon of choice much like the word "racism" was used in order to play the race card when there were none to be had in the first place. This not only proves damaging but does nothing to help the situation. "Avdism" has increasingly become an insidious word lately. I'd much rather focus on the inequalities and discriminations rather than become enamored over a single word or two hoping it'd be recognized and placed in a dictionary. I'll also include "avdist" into my own personal "dictionary" seeing that I'm the inventer of those words.
