What kind of monster pronounces MMORPG?

The humiliation online for money is something I saw first hand last year and I found it deeply disturbing. Storytime: I love the video game Subnautica. It’s this awesome combo of horror, survival and exploration taking place on a water world where you need to dive deeper and deeper under water to progress. It’s an awesome game and I love watching people play it because it offers a lot of freedom in its game play and everyone approaches it differently. Well, last year I stumbled upon a YouTube recommendation that was advertised as “I have thalassophobia (fear of deep water) and I play Subnautica!”. I thought, that sounds interesting, he will have to face his fears! It was one of the most disturbing things I’ve watched on the platform. This guy was not lying about having a phobia. He had these disturbing physical reactions while playing the game over and over. He constantly had to keep psyching himself up to continue by telling himself he needed to build his YouTube fanbase and that it was worth it. It went on like this for hours of gameplay. I had to stop after the first couple of videos because I started to feel complacent in someone’s humiliation and desperation. As far as I could tell based on his uploads YouTube kept showing me, he must have finished the game. This wasn’t the extreme of this Black Mirror episode but it was too damn close for comfort.

Basically British though

This is the second of recent episodes where an Irish actor has been labelled British. Chris O'Dowd, Paul Mescal, Barry Keoghan are Irish...

I didn’t want to spoil it but, since there’s already a couple comments about it, “muh more pug” has to be one of my favorite film cast moments of all time. Devindra and Jeff’s reactions are priceless. Great ending to a great episode. This alone makes me glad signed up today.

David is definitely not the first person to pronounce it “meh mor puh guh.”

I'm not exactly sure where I would rank it but Eulogy is in my top 5 all time Black Mirror episodes easy.
