Guys rip on other guys all the time when they play games, why is it, all of a sudden, sexism when a woman gets insulted for being shitty at a game?
pfft, I swear, sexism is the new race card.
It really is getting that way.
+Not my sheckels! Because he told Boogie after the incident when Boogie talked to him "it is because she was a woman". It WAS sexism.
+Brian Crocker So he makes a video in which a large part is dedicated to sexism in magic, but fails to mention IN THE VIDEO how the man was actually being sexist, then throws it out in the comments section like "oh yea, by the way, he said it was because she was a women." That should raise an eyebrow about the authenticity of his claim of sexism in magic.
riiiiight.
I set my Sexist Trap Card!!! Oh wrong game.
Don't ever be afraid, I support your freedom and I will die before someone stops you from using it.
+RolandRED he's supporting a content creator who put their heart and soul into his videos. he is supporting him and you are laughing at him! that shit doesnt add up.
RolandRED I'd die for yours as well.
Son, please come home and stop swearing your life and fealty to people on the internet. You're scaring your mother.
***** Wasn't a serious comment m8, pls, don't do this to me. I have a reputation to uphold.
o7...SIR
So, a girl is bad at a magic game? Oops, I used "girl" and "bad" in the same sentence. I guess I'm a sexist now.
boogie is delusional if he thought that was sexism
fuck your amazing at copy pasting
kalackninja If you're talking to me, then you're wrong because I didnt copy and paste this comment. However, I do find it hilarious that this whole sexism situation is so ridiculous that people are commenting similar things
***** yeah the Kevin fellow literately copy and pasted the same thing a dozen times.
and for some reason it wasn't letting me reply to people that day, so i was like fuck it
kalackninja oh ok lol
i went to a yoga class and it was almost exclusively women!! can you believe this shit? sexism in yoga is out of control.
+asdfers absolutely disgusting I can never get a male nurse either this world is so sexist towards men
King West disgusting, i say. disgusting !!
He's not complaining about the amount of women, he's complaining about how a lot of the women who do play are being insulted because they're women
It's a lost cause, I mean the comment alone is so completely disconnected from reality... Boogey is talking about a single person's behavior and the comment is about how more men play Magic. It's... I don't even know where to begin with how completely messed up the logic is...
Never in my life had I expected "You're not a real magic player" to be counted as an insult
No True Scotsman is the fool's fig leaf.
+NecroBanana The FUCK does that mean?!?!

Boogie, _sexism_ is a subjective term, and that example you mentioned involving your wife wasn't _sexism_, just a guy being an ass based on what he perceived from the situation (considering he apologized, it might have been intended as a joke that didn't go well - or in other words, maybe he wasn't an ass).
_Sexism_ is mostly a paranoid trap people fall into (thank you feminism!), and I'm telling you this hoping you stop yourself from falling for it. I'm not trying to be a pain in the ass, hammering your head with this.
It's just that the reality is that there are very little instances of actual _sexism_ in the western world, and most of those that people call _sexism_, in reality have alternative and more plausible explanations (like your example).
And btw, _diversity_ is also a subjective trap that leads people to the mindset of trying to please everyone, to the potential detriment of whatever quality their product has.
I'm a writer, and I can't think of diversity (whatever that means exactly) when I'm writing: I have to think of what makes sense in my story and to what I want to achieve (plus, I'm white, so my characters naturally tend to be white. My protagonists tend to be females, because I'm fascinated by badass hot girls - tough shit if anyone doesn't like that. They can write their own stories).
+skaruts if you use gender as a qualifier for why a person is bad at something, that is sexism. when you use race, it's racism. just because you don't acknowledge that fact, doesn't mean it isn't true. I'm also a white male, and when I tell stories, they are usually based on my knowledge which happens to be as a white male. that isn't racism or sexism, b/c they come from that perspective. diversity is also not subjective like you might believe, but hey, maybe you're just a troll who felt like coming out from under your bridge for the day.
Danny M *_"if you use gender as a qualifier for why a person is bad at something, that is sexism."_*
When did anyone put that into question? I didn't, and certainly nothing I said implied not acknowledging it.
Although sometimes things are said jokingly that some people with no sense of humor might find sexist (not referring to Boggie's case).
In the case of Boogie, in his own words _"one guy took that as my wife being too stupid to play"_. The guy took what he perceived as *her **_stupidity_*, not *her **_gender_*, as the _qualifier_ to take his conclusions and say what he said.
Diversity is an undefined term. I have no clue what you mean by it when you say it. Does it mean you need to include women? Anything probably already does. For some it means to _"to include more women"_. So, when is it diverse enough?
Does it mean to include blacks? Asians? It's probably a matter of relevance. Not all fiction makes sense with "diversity". The American Gangster and The Raid:Redemption surely aren't diverse movies.
And what about Inuits and the Amazonians? Were you even thinking of them? Should you? Why?
If you're relying on undefined subjective terms, then it's not people trolling you, it's something wrong with your notions.
+skaruts "after discussing it with him he did straight up say it was because she was a woman."
Naftul Zvi That was quoted from?
skaruts Mhm, he replied to one of the top comments.
Anyone who plays MTG is CRAZY is they think I'm going to tolerate sexism at my local gaming store!

Lol, yeah. I love your channel dude.

Uhhh.....no
Modern "sexism" nearly always seem to be guys just saying stuff to women that they normally say to guys. People really need to sit down and decide if women want to be treated the same as men or differently.
gynocentrism
It's the song and dance if the western world
Boogie, when someone moves in your community and starts calling everyone a sexist and misogynist and that what you're doing is wrong, you won't take to that kindly. These people have invaded who knows how many communities now with this tactic and I have yet to see a community that has turned into a more welcoming and inclusive environment. They turn into a divided war zone with two camps who hate each other.
your hobby ends when my feelings begin
+misterPloms Fuck your feelings.
+misterPloms Let me reply to this. Your feelings ends, where reality starts.
+OMGEpyonistaken Sadly, yes. The best strategy is what happened with Metalgate, where metalheads flipped the intruders and went on with their lives.
I rmember awesome cards with female characters from way back in 4th (Unlimited) and Fallen Kingdoms. People claiming MtG is sexist are cherry picking..... that's their favorite pasttime.
I don't think it's just magic that has sexism. I used to regularly play Yu Gi Oh! TCG and everyone thought I was fresh meat. I've had grown men go crazy and FLIP OUT over losing to me. :/
+LizaByte People lose their shit when I beat them at a game they're good at by just mashing buttons.They're just immature, not sexist. Not everything that happens to a woman is because of sexism.
At my locals only one girl as shown up and everyone treats her the same as if she was one of the guys
+LizaByte That sounds awesome. I wanna be a girl just to throw everyone for a loop then. You don't get that kind of reaction doing "girly" things as a guy, you just get weird looks and people silently judging you if anything. (At least in my experience. Well, guys might call it gay or something too.)
***** LOL, exactly!
+Flashyshooter Well, it's hard to say, different people consider different things to be that. Oftentimes I don't really agree myself. Long hair is one example, some people take it one way and others the other. Painted nails are a lot easier to get away with as a girl, I feel. Certain kinds of classes or activities, like I was one of like 2 boys in school in a health and fitness class and volleyball class. I wanted to try cheer but I didn't have the balls.
I like certain kinds of anime that might count, including the magical girl variety. Just liking the color pink can bring comments. Shaving/waxing anything that isn't the face.
I could name a few more, especially if I count things I have no experience with, but I think that'll do for "an example." It's getting uncomfortable, lol.
***** True, I might be mixing things up. Those are good examples though.
Gamer Gate people are not against diversity, they are against people shoving problems down their throats that isn't even a real problem. Diversity is completely stupid IMO. We put quotas on things, that is really just about making sure there aren't a lot of white males in a community. Gaming is the perfect example. I don't give a shit how many black people are in my community or white people or Asian people or Muslims people because I don't care about race or gender I care about WHO THEY ARE NOT WHAT THEY ARE. It's just another double standard by radical leftist that are unknowingly making more racism and sexism.
+Owen Falvo "we're not against diversity, we are just against any effort to promote or encourage more diversity".
+Owen Falvo Wait I thought it was about ethics in gaming journalism. I guess not.
+xkristianx
"Gamergate are sexist, racist and homophobic. It has nothing to do with ethics."
-"Stop clouding the issue. It's about ethics in games journalism."
"Gamergate are sexist, racist and homophobic. It has nothing to do with ethics."
-"No we're not. Stop clouding the issue. It's about ethics in games journalism."
"Gamergate are sexist, racist and homophobic. It has nothing to do with ethics."
-"Oh, FFS! No we're not. Stop clouding the issue. It's about ethics in games journalism."
"Gamergate are sexist, racist and homophobic. It has nothing to do with ethics."
-"Look, we don't care what race, gender or sexual orientation you are. We don't care about gender politics. We just want to play games in piece and leave developers to make their own choices without pressure from people with an agenda forcing their ideology onto others on the threat of labelling and shaming just like you do now"
"aHA! I KNEW IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ETHICS, YOU SEXIST, RACIST HOMOPHOBES!"
Give over. You act as if they can't be multifaceted. As if they must have one issue, one topic that they must stick to at all times and not stray from. Even if it's to rebut their accusers.
Maybe they need to add -and ethics in games journalism - to the end of every sentence out of their mouths.
***** "purists like Sargon" LOL
I only speak for myself when I say this, I'm not against diversity, but I'm definitely against *forced* diversity, because I feel like it loses any meaning if you do that. "Oh look we put this black guy/girl here, and made this woman that can kick any white guy's ass mentally *and* physically without breaking a sweat, aren't we so progressive and "with it"? Now give us your money."
Having black characters, or female characters, or whatever the fuck kind of characters just because its the "right thing to do," and not because it benefits the story in any way, isn't good enough. Not only is that bullshit, because you're pandering to people that pay way too much attention to physical traits and project said psychological and/or emotional problem onto everyone else, but it can be an excuse to not actually make a decent character that is atypical.
I have no qualms if people can make games (or any kind of fiction for that matter) more diverse in a natural way, by making characters that seem like actual people with real problems and aren't just there to satisfy some quota. That way you make them seem like actual human beings that you can sympathise and feel a connection with, overcoming whatever makes them different from you. In that process you hopefully break down whatever barriers more stubborn and prejudiced people might have as well. What's definitely not going to ply them is forcing shit down their throats.
Maybe I'm mistaken, but that appears to be the general consensus of GamerGate on how they feel about diversity.
I think if developers want a cast of mainly/only black/white male/female casts, they should be able to do that without being labelled anything incorrectly. Because some people apparently take anything and everything as an affront to their and other people's existences if they can twist it into something negative, and I don't think those kinds of people should be taken seriously.
Basically, it creates an unavoidable stigma for a product, in the view of people like me, where it becomes hard to tell if a black character or a female character (or whatever demographic is decided as the new underdog) gets a lead role in something because that's just what the author/developer/etc. envisioned and thought was best, which is perfectly fine by me, or if it's an empty character made to serve as a sly grab at the cash of some gullible, overly-zealous types. I mean I usually give them the benefit of the doubt, but it's something that I can't help but think about since I started seeing and hearing about people being so forceful with their agendas.
I don't know, if it takes some empty characters before creators learn to make real diverse characters, then I might not have a problem in the end, but I still don't agree with slandering people and forcing them to submit to diversity. Sorry for long comment if you aren't interested in some random guy's thoughts about a thing. Maybe somebody else will appreciate it though, or not.
To everyone saying "that's not sexism", please try to understand the MTG community.
Magic the Gathering is a great card game that unfortunately has problems with its image. One notable incident happened a couple years ago where a guy posted an photo album on Reddit of him at a large MTG tournament posing next to a bunch of guys' exposed asscracks. It was hilarious. But the takeaway is that a lot of the guys who play Magic really aren't that socially adept. They actually bear a lot of resentment toward those who are, and toward women. You need to understand that like all people, they have romantic desires as well. But no woman (or man, for that matter) would ever want to associate closely with an unattractive dude with hygiene problems who doesn't know how to act socially.
Basically, MTG has become a hub for these kinds of guys. There are *very* few female Magic players, which is sad. But looking at the community, one can see why. You hear stories of guys saying "you're too pretty to play Magic" and blatantly hitting on the girl during a game. There's also stories of guys getting salty about losing to a girl, as well as Boogie's story that reflects the pervasive trend of the Magic community not taking female players seriously.
Like it or not, Magic's reputation unfortunately keeps many people, especially women, from getting into the game. And when you have a community that treats females uncomfortably just because they are females, that is sexism.
+Chris Tang Oh good point, women tend to dislike MTG players for being unattractive people with social problems, but fuck them for resenting being treated like shit and not welcoming everyone that has shown them no kindness before.
+laertes104 I agree.
Just because they are nerds, doesn't mean the have the appearance and social skill of gremlins.
+Chris Tang I know a lot of guys who played in MTG tournaments 10 years ago and now they have girlfriends , stop generalising plz
+Chris Tang
The magic community doesn't change the fact that this instance isn't sexism, just a guy making a snark comment.
Turi Caederynmab So... was the comment sexist? Boogie mentioned in a comment that he later found out that it was in fact because his wife was a woman.
You're speech capabilities are still 100% better than mine. I can't go 20 seconds into a conversation without going "What's that word again?, Oh, ya! The."
* your
+GummyTumor I do that too. "Not that, you know the word, blahhh"
Love how your correction got more likes than the original comment lol, but I agree I use the word "like" way too much haha
+GummyTumor Try to pull it off.
I own a MTG store, just because someone doesn't give you exact situations of sexism doesn't mean it's not there. I assure you, it is. I'm not saying inside a game store is akin to a 3rd world country, no. But there is a long way to go, for both genders.
It's just a tough topic to tackle, everyone is so sensitive about it, confusion takes place and instead of progression, we instead devolve into drama, attacks and in-house fighting with each other. We spend all of our energy fighting people, instead of actually discussing any potential issues.
Thank you for being brave enough to bring up sexism, Boogie
+Vanyel Harkema It wasn't sexism. Quit being a spineless idiot trying to put divisive labels on everything.
Wasn't sexism.
Just a asshole that wanted to have a moment of spotlight by insulting Boogie.
End of story.
+asdfers ur mother. hows that for an argument.
Because on the internet today, in gaming circles especially, talking about sexism usually triggers people... Just look at the comments... Everyone is saying it wasn't sexism... They all apparently understood the context better than Boogey, who was actually there...
..and for that... they lay into him like he's running Feminist Frequency...
Sexism, even Feminism triggers a certain type of folk.. and those folks are VERY vocal... It sucks... It shouldn't take bravery to do this, but it does... for very obvious reasons. You'd have to be living under a rock or live in a very protected bubble or circle to not see why it takes some stones to talk about sexism, online, on a gaming oriented channel.
***** "Maybe we're just of sturdier stuff than you are. "
.."than you are?"... I'm assuming it's the proverbial "you" and not actually me... lol I personally don't care. I was just explaining why online, it takes a certain amount of bravery to talk about sexism, because it triggers folks online.
Do I care? Well... I like to talk about it, because in my free time I like discussing things. But when the rubber meets the road, I couldn't care either. I'm in much the same position as yourself. I just assume the vast majority of people who resist are just trolls or ignorant fools.
Dude boogie.... Gaming is the reason your channel got so big and now all your gaming videos are on your gaming channel... THIS is where people want to see the gaming videos.
I was just abt to say this...5 years later lol
Great to hear that the medication is helping Boogie. It's good to see you feeling better. I hope the speech mishaps are manageable.
I haven't looked too far into Magic the Gathering but I am intrigued. Any sexism in general especially in games is just stupid. Glad to see you taking a stand for your wife and yourself. Your wife seems like a very nice person.
Please, Please, do not be afraid of what we say. Please speak up for what you think is right. You can not please everyone. There will always be people that assume prejudice does not exist because they do not experience it. I have played magic for 6 years.... the community is difficult at best. I have often been treated differently because I don't fit the general stereotype... if you look a certain way, or act a certain way, people often assume you aren't a "real player". Love seeing the reactions when I kick their butts.
Boogie is your wife cheating on you?
I think it's cool that you let your wife sleep with black men since you can't give her what she needs. That's being a real man.
I don't consider gender stereotypes in gaming to be harmful sexism. If you're a girl that goes to a gaming tournament of almost any type, the guys who make up the majority of contestants will most likely think that you're not very good. If you aren't good, well, aren't they kind of right? If you are good, kick their butts, make a point to prove them wrong, and strut your stuff!!!
+Alicia Capps as a guy you can just go and play, even if you only play casual and only go to have a bit of fun, but if a girl does that it proves somehow that women all are bad at mtg.
Why do women have to prove anything? why is it ok to have such pressure on just one gender? and how is that not harmful sexism?
Because life isn't fair, and when the majority of ppl competing in the tournament are guys, it's natural for guys to think guys are best. Nobody expects a volleyball player to be good at football, but they might be anyway. And personally, I find it fun to "prove them wrong" and kick them off the high horse.
Alicia Capps your volley ball / football analogy makes no sense in this context.
Ofc it's fun to prove them wrong, but if girls who rather play casually are afraid to be judged more harshly just cause of their gender, then that is harmful for the community.
It does make sense. If you're wearing a volleyball uniform, no one expects you to be good at football. If you look like a girl, no one expects you to be good at certain games.
Then don't be in a tournament giving someone a free win...? Invite some friends over to play casually or something. If you play in public and can't handle ignoring a comment or just laughing at them, kindly let them know that their conclusion is wrong?
+Alicia Capps
I fully agree.
Some people can't view themselves as just a person and have to define themselves with what they've been fed about their identity. They can't base a decision on what they want, but on what they have to do because of X physical trait. If people could just view themselves as an individual they would realise that they can do anything they want. Like play MTG for example. There is no body scan at the door of tournament centres and the other people there have the ability to be an asshole just as much as the next person down the street. Treat an asshole like an asshole, but don't treat everyone like an asshole because someone else was one and they share a trait. That's called stereotyping.
That wasn't really sexist, he just kind of said she was bad, although it was a false statement it wasn't sexist
+chris mcquarrie Exactly. Might have happened all the same if Boogie was helping his brother (if he has one) or a male friend.
People only complain about sexism when women are the _"victims"_.
+skaruts if he was being targeted for his gender it is sexist
Chris Tauscheck That much is obvious and no one ever put that into question. The point is: she wasn't. And so weren't many who claimed they were.
+skaruts In the comment section of this video, boogie has clarified "after discussing it with him he did straight up say it was because she was a woman."
***** True, I found it. Thanks.
I have to wonder, however, why did that little detail escape him during the making of the video. That would have been *the detail* that would stick to his mind as the premise for his whole reasoning, and the ultimate objective point that would support the whole notion he was trying to convey.
I'd hate to think Boggie is lying (unintentionally?) because I genuinely like the guy, but... everything he said in the video doesn't fit with that comment. Something's not right about that story.
(It may still be that boogie misinterpreted what the guy said later, much like he seemingly readily misinterpreted the guys words as sexism - like I alluded earlier, these are easily intellectual traps)
Really enjoy your rambling series, it's nice to just have people sit down and talk about what's been going on in their lives sometimes. You've been going through a CRAZY journey with your body and I'm glad to hear that this week's been going your way. Keep it up and keep looking forward :)
500,000,000 views is just around the corner Boogie. Crazy!
haha weird upload times waking up to your vids
Lol same ;)
Once upon a time there was a treadmill and it cried out " play with me" to boogie. The End
+Agil Mills I'm saying this because hes a BIG problem.
LadyGaGa is hot
Ya, and he knows that.
So, thanks.
I love this series because of how raw and uncut it is. Boogie is one of the few TH-camrs who can film all in one take without all sorts of jump cuts through out and still have a logical discussion. Thanks for making these videos Boogie.
"I don't feel like I'm speaking as quickly, or as fluently, and I've never been that good at that"
That surprises me to hear you say that, because you gotta know, you're incredibly eloquent and pleasing to listen to.
Your rambling videos are the thing I enjoy the most on your channel. Maybe it's because it's you at your most candid, with no edits, talking about yourself and what's going on in your life. Call me crazy, but it's true! :)
So telling someone that he/she is bad at Magic because he/she can't memorize the cards, is sexist....ok. So when i tell my roommate that he is bad at cleaning his dishes because he collects them in his room, its sexism? When i tell my mom that she is bad at giving me some space to breath, because she would visit me every day if she could, it would be sexist?
Don't get me wrong but as long as it doesn't invole the sex of a person, its not sexism. Was it a douchebaggery? YES
Was it sexism? NO.
Maybe it was his reasoning that she is bad because she is a woman, but as long as he didn't say so you can't call him out on such a thing. Because that would mean that you would know what he things. And we already have people who call out other people for assumed thoughtcrimes.
Please Boogie don't turn into a SJW!
He explained in the comments that the guy admitted he insulted Boogie's wife because she is a girl.
you acknowledged that sexism exists, prepared to be showered with "SJW" comments
Boogy makes me CRAZY happy. I actualy use his videos to sleep sometimes, or I'll have it playing in the background. You make me happy dude. Cheers. 👏
I've introduced a lot of people to Magic over the years, friends and girlfriends alike. I usually take them to draft after a while and I've noticed that if they're a male friend and forget a rule or something, the other play will go "Oh, you forgot your draw step" or "hm, that wasn't a very good play, you probably want to use your creature like this" but if they're a girl/girlfriend, they receive less help and usually the other player just says kinda rudely "you have to tap that to play" and is usually more focused correcting than helping them. I've been to multiple stores and experienced this, it's crazy, but it's there.
What's crazy is today is my birthday!
On a different note, Boogie, would you ever consider doing a Francis rage video on free to play pay to win game? Also, if you've been going through your old videos, why not make a playlist of your favourite old videos?
+From the Back Oh wow, I didn't know that about myself, thanks for informing me!
Also, I said that because he said to use the word 'crazy' in the comment section below. ( 12:43 )
+MySmilie Happy birthday, friend.
happy birthday!*blows part favor*
+Th3K1NGT4K3R *blows party favor*
Happy Birthday to someone I don't know, also, you single?
JUST
"After a while I just felt spent..."
This is exactly how I felt. My playthrough was on nightmare and probably up until 3/4 of the game, I literally had a shit eating grin on my face when I died, because "this is so cool OMG they just sent me a BARON OF HELL WTF". But at the end of the game you're right on, I started to get fatigued. My grinning turned to cursing and cursing to yelling loudly at my screen. All in all though, I had a very enjoyable experience with it and am looking forward to going back and hunting down the secrets.
first world problems: dude tells other dudes wife she's not a "real gamer", dude gets pissed...ffs people get mad over the stupidest shit.
Why are people so content with defending someone they've never met, or know anything about, even though people abuse buzzwords such as sexist or racist doesn't mean you should turn a blind eye or defend things that are actually sexist or bigoted
+Chris Tauscheck Because to every story there are at least 2 sides, so it's good to consider both if you want to get any closer to the "truth"...
+lcg3092 well I definitely agree with the statement that you should look on both sides of an argument but you shouldn't choose a side that you don't know anything about, and Boogie said that afterwards he said those things solely because she was a woman,
Chris Tauscheck You are not the first to say that, I seem to have missed it, where did he say it?
+lcg3092 on a top comment, boogie replied and said as such
+lcg3092 a top comment from deadmeat89000
I generally wanna see what you eat on a daily basis. I've been able to get fit really easily when I was you're size from dieting and workout a few times a week. I hate to be mean but it looks like you've been overweight you're whole life, what do you eat?
+Rathalos i know exactly what he eats. Too much
+Rathalos Probably Too Much. Plus looking like a sad human being gets more views.
Bel Rick hes been saying he's been on a diet for years. I'm really interested at how somebody could be obease for years if there dieting for years
*****
I bet he has a big pantry where he keeps all his 'genetics'
***** No attack just truthful accurate observation and one that could be life saving
Save your pathetic excuses for your liberal arts degree majoring in gender studies class
I am crazy in love with your rambling series. you're one of the most genuine peep I know
08:08 "I didn't flip a table", is that a reference to Francis? XD
Health problems??? You??? No... This dude's been making excuses for years about health. Go to a fucking rehab center and get yourself straight dude. If you have to, starve yourself for a week or two and you'll lose 20-50 lbs easily. Or... Stop playing video games all day long. listen, I'm not hating on this dude at all, but I can't believe how years later he is still this size, if not bigger. Honestly, it's fucking depressing man lol.
Who the hell puts cheese & bacon in their salad? Gross as fuck, just eat the fucking salad.
Lots of people do actually.

It sounds fucking disgusting thats what im saying, unhealthy bastards cant even keep a salad clean.
+solame10101 you would be surprised thats the norm in the u.s.
Like literally everyone

Probably everyone that looks like boogie, yes.
I recently picked Magic up again after a 20 year absence. A lot has changed with the game, especially the complexity of the mechanics. What hasn't changed? In the two months I've been playing again, I've yet to face a female player. The local shop I play at is a great environment with very respectful and friendly people, but not a single female plays there. I think the image of Magic needs a 'nudge', like you said. The Spellslingers series over at Geek & Sundry with Day[9] is a great example of how to make Magic more accessible to all people, whether, young or old, male or female. Hopefully, we'll get there. The more diversity in the game, the more fun and casual Magic can be.
Don't just think about leafy greens salads. Bean salads and pasta salads can also be really good for you. To maximize the benefits fo a pasta salad, use whole grain pasta. Beans, in general, are a great food that you should eat regularly, and it's really easy to toss some vinegar, hot sauce, a dash of sugar, some herbs, garlic, and add a bunch of other veggies to make a great bean salad. Plus, you can always make bean burgers or burritos with leftovers. Potatoes are also really good, although they've gotten a bad rap because of their carbohydrate count (which isn't really even that high). A 250 gram potato (with skin) will give you over 1,000 mg of potassium, which is roughly 30% of the Recommended Daily Intake. Add a side of a cup of cooked spinach and you now have roughly 55% of your RDI for potassium. Potassium is incredibly important and it's something that most people do not get enough of. For a complete diet of micronutrients, like zinc and iron, eat a serving (typically 1 cup) of fortified bran flakes (Total or any generic brand cereal is fine, just make sure it's fortified) and use raisins or any other fruit to add sweetness.
A great website that I've used to tweak recipes to be healthier is MyFitnessPal.com. (I'm not affiliated with them in any way) Their Recipe counter does a great job of showing just how much nutrients and calories are in each serving of your recipes. It's helped me design recipes like a bean and spinach salad that contains 100% of your RDI for potassium while having a very low caloric count.
The dude said your wife isn't a real magic player because you were guiding her plays (according to you). He only addressed her as your wife because she IS your wife. he didn't say anything related to "females aren't real magic players" so you can chill with the butt hurt sexist cry. he did sound socially awkward to make that comment though lol. And on a side note, I just subscribed only to unsubscribe again because you tend to whine about shit that is pretty leftist and not really as bad as you make it.
try weed insted of pils
dude weed lmao
+Herman Quiahuitl What's wrong with weed?
+TheMystikMoonshiner it was a joke lol cant i forgot to write and heroin
+TheMystikMoonshiner i forgot
+Herman Quiahuitl weed helps dude i know how boogie is feeling with not talking as well as he use too i understand that 👍
OK so here's something crazy. I sang in front of a sold-out audience at the Shanghai Arts Centre. So about 1500 people. We were all wearing full-length dresses, and for the second half we went commando.
Hey boogie, long time fan loved the crazy video. thought I would share an instance I had with my wife at FNM. She, like your wife plays magic for more of the fun aspect as I for the DCI side. we where playing in the local FNM standard tournament (this was back when Rise of Eldrazi came was part of the standard rotation. My wife had an elf deck that she made to have fun and mess around. well to make a long story short she went 3/2/3 that night, first time ever at FNM. her last match was with the stores best player, she beat him and when he made the comment I helped her build the deck and told her how to play it. the store got quite. (everyone thought I would do something too to him for being rude.) my wife stood up very slowly and professed the true. she made the deck herself, learned how it worked and you just got beaten by a women. we left after that with a round of applause from the store owner Eli.
Your story around 7:00 with MtG and your wife is not an example of sexism. Not in the least. You were witnessed doing prep work that would normally be done by the player. The guy reasonably concluded that you were doing it because your wife couldn't do it herself. That would be exactly the same if it were the other way around, and she was doing your prep work for you. You misread it entirely, and reacted like a moron.
When you insult people for no reason, you are the one who looks like a moron.
Can't tell whether bait or just a moron
swf If you are looking in the mirror, the question answers itself.
the way the guy said it was completly uncalled for. no its not sexisim but it is outright rude. if someone were to say that to my wife i wouldnt be fucking happy either all boogie was doing was helping her with a new set like he said she hadnt memorised the cards as he had
He did make a valid point. "What is a real Gamer?" A gamer is someone who plays video games. She plays this game so she is a gamer. But it isnt sexism in that example, it people trying to claim who is and who isnt a "real gamer" so people can place themselves higher than others.
Wow Boogie you truly scratched the back of a monster on this one.
I wasn't actually expecting the Magic community to have a massive group of ignorant people, but you woke them up!
Hello sexists! Good morning racists! Aloha elitists! XD
Gamergate will happen to Magic if there continues to be a massive group of disrespectful people. Just sayin :/
Agreed. In general, there's this movement right now to just resist anything that implies equality. It's pretty insane how bad it's gotten online. Of course, it depends on the circles you're in. Only in gaming does this shit show up like this. In most other areas, people are reasonable, kind and thoughtful. Online, being a hate filled peon is apparently seen as a positive trait....
My life is becoming crazy, all my friends and I are moving off to college all over the world, my love's parents won't let her speak to me which has been bumming me out for the past week, and this is the last month I have in the place where I have spent my life up until now. Me and my friends are just playing Magic until we all leave one by one. Thank you though, you also deserve to have fun man, at least more fun than my miserable ass. Life's just crazy man.
Last Saturday we had a CRAZY day of magic. 13 hours of Commander & Cube, with a bit of bbq in between. Was a great day with friends!
The rambling videos are the best background noise for gaming ever.
it's crazy how much I enjoy these rambling videos
yeah its crazy how youtube thinks its the next tv lol i know when i look at my watch times it fluxuates so much that I just kinda ignore it haha but if I can get people to watch past a minute im happy HAHA!
With sexism in magic, I have seen this first hand. I have had a guy at my local mouthing off to his mates saying "women dont play magic because they arnt smart enough." I turned around to him and said, "So how many of these so called stupid woman have bet you that go to this store ha?" I knew they beat him all the time and are always in the top % at the store & nation wide (livinging in New Zealand) So he wasnt happy about that but I was happy to just put him in his place because really there is no need for that type of thing.
So I think you should totally make that video! It would be interesting to get more of your views on it :) Great video, sorry your meds are making you so tired and crappy but I am happy to see your not in as much pain. Take care! XO
It's crazy that i've been watching your channel and you grow for the last 3 years. Time sure does fly.
Boogie--I stopped following your vids for a few years, and then decided to look you up today. You seem happy. It brings me joy to see you doing so well. :)
My first experience with two headed giant was less than a month ago. One team was a couple a girl and a guy. The guy was forcing his ideas on her and wouldn't listen to her ideas. If he had listened to her he would have won both of our games. Finally I confronted him and told him how controlling he seemed and how she didn't seem like she was having fun. He told me I didn't know what I was talking about, but she agreed with me. I don't know if this is a thing in the mtg community or just controlling partners in general
Crazy creeper here, been watching your content since your hacked account rage or even ICC Francis rants. Been a good ride friend. Keep it up, all the best. I admit I don't always watch the content on the daily when it's released, but I still set aside some time to go through them in a lump when I've fallen behind :D
Craziest thing I've ever done was probably playing guitar while standing up in the bed of a moving truck for a music video my friend was making.
Being an avid rpg player i got told that because i'm a girl i was too stupid to play real rpg's and that diablo is not a girls game so i should "stop pretending to play" it is insulting but had no issues with magic thankfully
Pulled on a rope to make sure a tree fell away from a house. Tree fell, I pulled, I ran, tree missed me. In retrospect, crazy....
The crazy thing is, we still live in Arkansas. :D
*"She's a smarter person than i am."*
It takes a grown up, emancipated, intelligent and strong man to say these words!
You are one amazing bloke... Yes a UK guy here, starting up a tube channel within the next few weeks, you're an inspiration to slot of people. You have the ability to make your viewers laugh, or even just sit there and listen. Have a great week Boogie
I never had any problems with sexism at the old place I played magic, but I just moved and now I'm kind of nervous. I have social anxiety so I often look a bit less intelligent than I am when I'm meeting new people, plus I've only been playing the game for a few months, and I'm a casual... Whew. Hopefully it goes fine.
It's crazy how sexism is still a problem in magic. I haven't played in a tournament for quite a while now, but I remember that it was always present. Even if it was subtle.
I love this rambling series, I listen to them during school (when allowed don't worry) and they're very fun to listen to, you're like a radio host for gamers, keep it up man 👍
If you don't get enough food, order a pizza.
It's crazy how much I love your rambles Boogie.
Crazy. I've watched you for years, and I'm so glad to see how things have improved for you. You've worked very hard, and while I doubt you'll see this comment, the numbers don't lie; a great many of us enjoy your internet presence.
I am crazy for even starting my channel, there is no way I can compete with people like yourself. But you know what I am going to try, I am going to get better, I will find my unique style, and if I get popular great if not, don't care I am having fun playing games, recording, editing, uploading and being awkward on the internet.
I think it is crazy that a few months ago I commented on one of your videos asking about whether you had seen DDP Yoga and then you mentioned it in this video. Afterwards, I search your channel for DPP and found that you have multiple videos for it already and a couple, I had already seen. So it's crazy that I think I may have actually been introduced to your videos through your DDP Yoga reaction to Jared and then I completely forget that even happened.
I have only recently found your channel, but I am sincerely crazy about your videos.
I was deeply saddened when you account was hacked, but I'm thrilled so many people stepped forward to help you; and I am truly enjoying catching up on your older vids.
Anyway, stay safe, be well, and thanks for sharing your creative efforts with the rest of us. ~ Tim.
A good way to keep a salad low calorie and still taste great, just use salt, pepper and lemon juice. No need for oil at all.
I'm so ducking happy that people are spitting out this shit. There is hardly any sexism in the western world. You can't force creators to adhere to your never ending list for diversity, and you can't always be jumping at shadows for sexism and shit whenever something less than friendly happens to a girl. Enough of this victimizing game!
I'm so crazy happy to have heard today that my brother's girlfriend is expecting, and I'm going to be an auntie! Happy doesn't really come close to what I feel right now, so proud of my brother becoming a father.
I find it crazy that I'm regularly watching a youtuber again! I don't know how you do it, Boogie, but I love seeing you happy and I love hearing what you have to say. Speaking of which, as you said you've been taking an easy week and producing just what feels good. Hell yeah! Keep that kinda thing up. When you're feeling good, we're feeling good :D
The Francis Mountain Dew rage. Hands down, the craziest and the funniest thing you've ever done imo.
That's why it's good idea to play Doom singleplayer in short bursts. Maybe 2 levels at a time. Not 13 hours in one go.
I am type 1 diabetic,been so for 45 years.Your tiredness might be blood sugar too high.Watch your Carb intake.Brilliant channel,keep it up.
It's crazy that I'm still up at 5AM spamming TH-cam....
You are a crazy cool guy Boogie. We are all happy that you have a special person in your life to share your love of Magic with. Seeing the transition from your old videos to your new ones, you can clearly see how much her love for you and your love for her shows in your face. Continued blessings to you and your lady from Ontario, Canada. :)
Wanna know what's crazy? That if it wasn't for this man boogie, I wouldn't have gotten motivated to lose 60 lbs since the beginning of this year. ALL HAIL BOOGIE
You should talk about the Overwatch animated shorts and stuff, if you haven't already.
I wouldn't normally say this, but they're just so fantastic.
My ex girlfriend, who I would call CRAZY, definitely felt some of the sexism in gaming. She was afraid to play fps games because she didn't want to be harassed by teenagers on the internet.
I do like watching you look back at your older content. I'm sensing a throwback Thursday series, maybe bi-weekly? That'd be awesome.
EDIT: That'd be CRAZY awesome ;)
It's crazy how much of a down to earth guy Boogie is.
Man that sucks because for me it was my wife who got me into magic and she's the one who taught me how to play properly and have a love for the game. Because people like the guy who insulted your wife and you were the type of people who pushed me away from the game with their words. But it was good that you stood up for the both of you.
Also Have a CRAZY AWESOME WEEKEND and have a safe and happy Victoria Day weekend celebration from your pals to the north! Up here in Canada ^_^
Boogie it's crazy how I played overwatch for 8 hours straight yesterday and the day before that
+boogie2988 It's "crazy" how mean some of your viewers can get in the comments section.
I love you very much and and I'll listen to you again soon.
For some reason I want to comment about how great that camera quality is.
It's dank.
As someone who used to play YuGiOh semi-competitively, I actually know sexism in card games all too much. At our old YGO locals, it was shared with the Magic group. I have to say, one thing I always pointed out was how much nicer the Magic players were than the YGO players; they most definitely didn't have any problem with prejudice in any way; they group was really varied. But the YGO lot? We were very... "cis white male" to use that awful term. Not all of us were horrible people, but a lot of the group really was. Back then, I used to take a big group of friends along, which included females and not-white people and I always felt horrible how other members of the group treated them. Heck, it was this that made me quit playing the game competitively in the first place. Now I just play casually on a Sunday on Twitch. But, to me, it's just baffling as to why a group of people would belittle others who just want to play the same game as them. They are trying to enjoy the same hobby as you, why would you try to alienate them? I dunno, it's just crazy to me, but that's just me 2 cents into the topic.
It's crazy how far you've come! Keep up the great work - you're an inspiration to many.
I have personally experienced a lot of sexism in MTG, to the point where I don't go out and play with people, because I just can't deal with the way people look at me like I don't belong or comment about me when they think I can't hear. I love the game, but the community is sexist, and I have been told explicitly that I can't play because I'm a girl, and it's crazy, and fucking bullshit.
Not to stir shit, but if your wife was letting someone build her deck for her IN FRONT OF OTHER PLAYERS, I can see why the other players would think that she wasn't as skilled. It's not sexist.
Proud of ya for making those changes! :) im 55 lbs down in a year after dropping pop last July and working out twice a day 3 times a week ( one in the gym and one in the pool )
Loved Doom. my only complaint would be the amount of times I've entered "horde mode" in the game. I would have liked to see the demons spread out better but that's about it. I'd like to see the future of snapmap too. the idea is good, they just need to add the ability to make multiple maps on one set , similar to some wads that have multiple maps
It's crazy to see how far this channel has come over the years. I love all your content man. I like these rambling videos just as much as your old story time videos. You can feel the sincerity in them. Keep it real boogie. 😎👍
To avoid a disastrous MTG Gamergate conflict, we just need to find a way to explain to Feminists why the victim complex culture and the oppression olympics are toxic and self-destructive without sounding like a mansplainer or a misogynist. aka mission impossible.
