===== Transcript =====

What's up fellow Youtivers? Um... Well, Chester Bennington, the lead singer of Lincoln Park, committed suicide. And, um, last night when I made a video about it, I sang along to the song by Lincoln Park called Shadow of the Day. And YouTube got a hold of me and they said, well, your video is blocked everywhere because Shadow of the Day is not approved to be played on YouTube without the written consent of blah blah blah blah blah. So basically, I got a copyright infringement strike and honestly fuck YouTube's double standards man I've seen I watched a video called Lincoln Park Shadow of the Day with lyrics on YouTube and this is quite common for a lot of artists and their songs. They have several videos on YouTube, or people make lyric videos for the song, and the people who have those lyric videos on their channel obviously don't have the right or written consent to play that song on YouTube, and yet somehow their copyright claims are not being filed against them. But the minutes I try to sing along to the song Shadow of the Day by Lincoln Park, a memory of Chester for committing suicide. I really wish she hadn't done it. YouTube's like, nope, you can't play that song. Your video is blocked everywhere. Crawling in my skin, these wounds they will not heal. Fear is how I fall, confusing what is real. Just comfort pulls itself upon me, distracting, reacting. I felt this way before, so insecure. How many times, YouTube? How many, motherfucking times, am I sang? Lincoln Park on YouTube. Oh man, I've lost count. And right now when finding out about Chester committing suicide at the age of 41, it's upsetting YouTube. It's upsetting, YouTube. It saddens me, it's upsetting, you know. One of my favorite musicians kills himself. How the fuck would you feel? You know? How the fuck would you feel if one of your favorite musicians killed themselves? You'd be pissed off too, wouldn't you? You'd be pissed off and you'd be sad. Yeah, exactly. I had some lunch earlier and I got the hiccups from it. But, um, yeah. But yeah, I want to smoke some pipe tobacco here. Look at that big old bag of tobacco right there. Black cherry, blackberry brandy, creamy vanilla. There's like two ounces of each one mixed into here. And this combination of tobacco smells really good. I have not heard a single complaint from anybody whenever I've smoked my pipe in public and I've had my personal ash cigar, cigar store custom blend. And the reason I want to say personal is because I personally buy it myself. Now the ash cigar store does not have a tobacco blending license But they do have a tobacco selling license. So If I buy it if I buy the tobacco separately and then mix it in my own personal bag. You know what I'm saddened and upset by the death of Chester. It was a damn good singer. I seen him on Good Mythical Morning a couple episodes back. I was a minute ago. I was one of my favorite episodes. That was one of my favorite episodes of Good Mythical Morning. Yeah. Well I'm going to work today at 4. and it's like 2.03 so I got plenty of time to shower and get dressed out of my pajama bottoms and all that I did shave earlier because my face was looking a little bit scraggly and using a razor and shaving cream. for your face is the best way to do it because they get you a smooth clean shave every time. Unless of course your blade goes dull then you got to change it. You know. Um. I get off topic as I normally do. Um. And well, the reason why I don't commit suicide, YouTube, I have too many people that care about me. And even if you don't have anybody that cares about you, you know, you still shouldn't do it. You know, you shouldn't commit suicide, you'll never never know which will miss out on in life. You know, I'll use myself as an example. When I got fired from Wendy's, I was unemployed for five long, miserable, god-dam months. And I hated it. I hated it, I hated it. I wanted a job so god damn badly, you know, something closer to my apartment and something that I could do good in, you know. And I did just that. I got a job a little bit to my apartment. And I did just that. I got a job a little bit closer to my apartment and I get paid $10 an hour and on top of that I get along with all my co-workers, you know. So if I would have committed suicide in those five months I was unemployed I would have missed out on my current job you know like legitimately so yeah life can be crap sometimes but it has a way of turning around, you know. Quite often, YouTube, I've seen people who struggle a lot worse than I do, and they manage to get up every day, you know? So... And if people who struggle a lot worse than I do can get by in life, what the fuck is stopping me, you know? It really, like, it puts things into perspective, YouTube, when you see somebody struggling a lot worse than you are, and they're able to get by just fine you know they may not have the easiest life in the world but they still get by And yeah, it just seems a bit weird YouTube that, you know, YouTube doesn't care too much about videos with lyrics in them. But if you're showing your face and actually playing the song and singing along with it, YouTube might have a problem with it. You know... I'm Chester, I hope you know bro that you have a lot of people. a lot of people you pissed off and saddened with this suicide of yours. There are millions of Lincoln Park fans all over the world that are like man this is some bullshit. Because you think YouTube that once you commit suicide that that the depression stops? It doesn't. It just gets carried on to somebody else, you know. You know, we're all gonna die anyways, why rush it? You know, take time to enjoy life. That's the best advice I want to give anybody, really. And if you're depressed or suicidal, talk to somebody you trust about it, you know. For me, when I'm upset, sometimes I'll make a video when I'm upset because it helps me with, uh, coping. I mean one thing that prevents me from committing suicide, besides family, friends, and people who care about me, that sort of thing, you know, is smoking my pipe, you know, kicking back and enjoying some delicious pipe tobacco, the air waffling with the smell of sweet delicious pipe tobacco. And yeah, YouTube. That's pretty much all I have to say on this video. Rest in piece Chester, you're gonna be missed, man. I've opened up these cars. I'm bleeding out digging deeper, just to throw it away. Just to throw it away. I've been out. I've opened up these cars. I'll make you face this! I've pulled myself so far. I'll make you face this! I've pulled myself so far! I'll make you all this is only one thing you pushed as far as I can go for all this is only one thing you should know. Anyways, YouTube, this is King Cobra JFS with another video. And... Thank you all for watching. And I'll catch you all on the flip side.
