Removing a fake mustache to reveal your real mustache is such a power move.
Not as powerful as the line behind it.
Gene Parmesan vibes
Joel Haver vibes
You watch Ryan George
@@simonwyzik8661 I do, yes
I just realized how hilarious it is that Artorias is considered an average manager, but his dog Sif is an exceptional manager.
Jon is an average loser but his cat is an exceptional loser
Sif as any dog is a perpetual emotional con that you know it's there but fall for it anyways.
Think about it would you like to be told you're doing overtime by some boring old knight or a wolf with fluffy fur and a sword?
@@minaashido518gardfiel?
My sister's cat is keeping me from thinking about a pun...
Artorias is the guy who just runs of to do his own stuff and then comes back to work like nothing happened.
My title is “Crucified Sun Guardian,” and I must say, I sound RAD as *HELL*
lucky, I got the crucified aerobics instructor
My title is “Luminous Golem” and that is a boring title

Why is this so accurate...?
@@castafiorept7309 because it's true
You mean '90s.
who needs parents when you have bdg looking like both of yours, right? is he planning to adopt us all or something?
I'm expecting him to come trotting up, jorts and socked sandals, with a big grin saying something like 'hey there, sport!'
"I'm not your friend, and you have no say over what I do with my body" is both the most powerful and quotable phrase BDG has ever said.
which is saying something
I beg to differ. God has cursed me for my hubris.
I stopped the video and liked for that sole reason alone. I don't like Polygon, but holy fuck this man is very good at being hilarious.

The best part of this video is that the 5 C's of being a good boss are actually really applicable to real life bosses
Especially the last one
@@DaveTheVader you have clearly always been a boss
It’s a shame that the Ivory King was put in the “good boss-bad guy” list. He used to be an all-around great guy but after that whole Old Chaos business he really let himself go.
At least he left management to Alsanna who has plenty of common sense and clearly values the company.
Brian David Gilbert is incredibly lanky for carrying the entire weight of the game journalism industry.

I love the fluidity between the take where Brian still has the wig and moustache in his hand, and then turns to a new shot where he's got a mug held in the exact same position. It almost feels like he magiced the wig and moustache into a mug...

Pat saying "hey yo can I gape in here?" At the end sent me, I didn't hear that the first time I watched
I'm so glad BDG evolved into Ned Flanders
Holy shit you're right
Now that I’ve seen it, it’s clearly the best choice.

There's no way this is even his final form.
"im not dancing this season."
nothing has crushed so much in me so quickly. i am devastated.

It’s best it was done early because now you have time to heal and love what he’s evolved into.
Mr. Hatcher.
He ain’t dancing, but he is emoting very physically and violently
"I am devastated," thank you, Raymond holt
14:58 "Santiago, Sunken Giant" sounds so accurate and badass it's almost scary
I’ll never forget at work one time a coworker was trying on a pair of slacks (I’m a wardrobe consultant) and the waist band was too loose.
My tailor said, “it’s good in the legs but you’re gaping” and I _LOST IT_ and then had to explain to a 60 year old tailor that someone took the bad guys from a video game, ranked them as managers, and said “under no circumstances should you be in a work setting and described as gaping.”
Brian: I’m getting mustache surgery
Pat: It’s gonna be okay

Me: "Yeah... I give him 3 videos."
As of today it’s announced he will break that in his next video, yes they announced this, this isn’t a joke.

2:58 "The kind of boss you can chat with at the Estus Cooler" Had to watch this video a couple times to discover that gem
Honestly love that he pushes back against parasocial relationships so strongly in the beginning of this one. I'd forgotten about it, but it's an important thing for a public figure to do.

Top comments with no replies are depressing.
Thank me later.
@@isiabet8049 yeah I agree
@@isiabet8049 I think it's nice. The replies on top comments will almost always be worse than the comment itself, for statistical reasons if nothing else. Seeing no replies is like knowing that everyone appreciates it, and nobody is self-important enough to feel the need to spoil it with their own stupid, entitled opinion.
Of course, now I've gone and helped you ruin that, so oops.

Stan - *St* alker F *an*
Comes from an Eminem song from the same name. It's honestly a VERY bad thing that people used to label stalker-ish obsessive creeps but the K pop community and the Mctwt just ran with it and changed its meaning to just super fan. Which is weird, because now we can't pick out bad things people do, and now criticise "stans" and there will always be the counter-argument that "not all stans are bad", which is inherently wrong, like saying not all criminals did illegal things.
That's what a Stan is, check out jawsh for pretty much everyone who's not a stans take
@@honkstheclown8631 yeah, that's why I said, the k pop *and* mctwt communities.

@@AnaRodriguez-cg1bc Hello Depression! I wanted to talk with you for a long time. I have just one thing to say: Fuck You.
2:38 best theme on google slides no doubt
Using the BDG method to evaluate my Manager Beth, who got sent to us when our normal manager had to cover a different hotel, but is now not leaving and is our new manager.
CV: Beth managed to sort our entire linen closet in about a week using three employees she brought in. Legend. Our hotel is in much better condition since she joined, and she’s balanced job responsibilities better throughout staff.
CF: Beth regularly sends our housekeeping group chat reviews about the rooms, both bad and good, asking us to pick up where we lack or congratulating us with doughnuts when we do well.
CE: Beth treats us all with equal footing. Just because you’re older or you’ve worked here longer doesn’t mean she’s going to cancel someone else’s holiday for you. Beth works on a first come, first serve basis, and tries to get everyone settled in a fair way.
CL: Beth buys us doughnuts and drinks, makes sure we have freezer space, keeps up with our lives and checks in when we’re not doing okay, going as far as to offer help.
CRGTTOAMF: I have been harassed at work three times. Beth has sworn up a storm and defended me two of those three times. The third she didn’t know about. Though customers are on a two strike basis, she typically assigns me rooms as FAR as possible away from the room of the customer who harassed me.
In an interview a month ago, I was asked what qualities I liked in a boss. I answered the five C's (almost) verbatim
I have my first job in an office now
I'm assuming CGTTOAMF was the part that forced you to put that "almost" in there.
If it wasn't, you have power inside of you and deserved that job anyways.
SLICES! DICES! BIG OL' CRUNCHERS!

It's funny because the Ivory King is the corrupted form of a guy who was actually incredibly good before circumstances changed, and I feel like that describes more than a few managers.

The fact that my dark souls boss name is Jimmy the Joyless Orphan ironically brings be so much joy, as I can just imagine you walking up to the orphanage not expecting a boss battle but little jimmy is lookin real joyless today and he just starts swinging at you. Fighting him isn’t very hard, the main challenge is just dealing with the moral repercussions of killing a sad, small orphan in order to progress through the game.
Same vibe as Sif
Bro I'm joyless orphan too and believe me, I will revive you
im the accursed mistake LOL
Listen, if the orphan didn't want to be drop-kicked into the next life, they shouldn't have challenged the guy with a sword in armor. They started the fight, and I'll fuckin end it.
