Yeah I also thought they went pretty over the top, I also don't know why the demographics of Twitch would map to "poor seeking steady income, the vulnerable longing for stability..." I mean are the poorest kids in the U.S. and those in unstable environments really on Twitch for hours on end? Maybe, but those seem like exactly the kids who wouldn't have as good access to wifi and computers as slightly wealthier families.
- Waterfall 6y agoDepends where you live, I know someone who joined to remove a DUI, my cousin was not poor and just wanted discipline before joining a biotech phd program with the military paying for it. Poor kids are not online for hours on twitch, they are caring for their other siblings while their parents are at work, and probably playing or helping with homework, not watching hours of their favorite US military streamer play CoD.
- atlasunshrugged 6y agoYou can remove criminal offenses? Wow, I think I'd seen that in movies (or maybe that Simpsons episode about Seymour Skinner?) but didn't realize it was really a thing
- Waterfall 6y agoThe judge let him go because he told me he needed a licence for driving the amphibious vehicle and he wouldn't be able to do it if he got a DUI so it was dismissed, but hes told me about screaming camel spiders I googled and called him out on. I don't think he lied about that one though but I'm just rehashing what he told me.
