Gurl, puh-lease! Have you heard of Joel & Lia who have a YT channel that goes on & on about America

They like to "trigger" people it seems. The Americans take offense - but love them really. That sort of scenario.

They even went to America a few weeks ago and went to Walmart etc...

I thought they were a couple - but it seems not. Even though they seem to share a bed in hotels. Joel has trouble with "dating" - but doesn't say if he's gay or not. I implies he's str8, which confused me little.

Actually, I find their channel strangely addictive, in spite of myself.

Anyway - I thought to link this here for DL's reckoning.

Oh please. He’s an ex-fatty gay (fatigué). I do love his voice though.

Why to the promo shots for youtube shows ALWAYS feature people making idiotic faces?

Oh - a couple of people picked up on this eventually.

I guess people on DL are major eye-roll about vlog channels. I think I am too usually, but these two seem to have caught my imagination.

They've been pretty successful now and get sent places by companies to promote stuff.

I was just watching - they went to Paris this summer and had all their stuff stolen at the reception of the hotel. She was in tears etc...and they saw film of the guy who stole from them (I'll link it)

Their viewers were so sympathetic that they sent them enough money to buy new cameras and stuff.

Thunder thighs! Used to be a chunky gal.

They're annoying. They always pretend to be so 'baffled' by American shit (like proms) and need to make a whole video about it, when a quick Google search would instantly clear everything up.

There's a weird subculture on YT of non-Americans who make videos trashing on American things or claiming not to 'get' some American concept and how everything is better in THEIR country, and their viewers are mostly Americans who masochistically agree with them and beg for further abuse. Weird.

Joel is fit and healthy now.

Isn't there a body of water near Boston we could dump these bitches into?

Have they done pancakes?

You mean there is actually someone on the planet who thinks that guy is straight?

This was the video that got me interested in them - I saw the word Cotswolds and was drawn.

They roll around the bed together and stuff and seem so in love - but NO SEX.

[quote]You mean there is actually someone on the planet who thinks that guy is straight?

he's NOT out.

He's very elusive on their videos about dating.

But I think they're fun. They REALLY laugh about stuff.

He might just be closeted. He does eat his feelings.

Yes, they're always tucking in.

[quote]There's a weird subculture on YT of non-Americans who make videos trashing on American things

Not ALWAYS

Oh, well, that makes up for the zillion others that trash on Americans, then...

His dog is a dollface - no doubts about it.

His father's looking a bit swish here.

I think they're GENUINELY sweet people.

I think they’re tedious and not nearly as clever as they think they are.

I'm British, and even I find them annoying. Trifling actually.

The dog is cute but has whiskers, like a cat. Odd.

OP, I have seen them before, they are ebeggars. Stop trying to make them happen.

[quote]OP, I have seen them before, they are ebeggars. Stop trying to make them happen.

I'm NOT "trying to make them happen" - they have 170,00 subscribers. They HAVE happened.

I find them entertaining - in small doses and like anything one links on DL I wanted to see what people round here think of them.

(But I can understand where you're coming from)

They were in America (NJ) a few weeks ago and went to Walmart

Nothing sounds shillier than some faux hip version of "girl please."

All this and a dozen links to their crap. You're either a sucker or a shill.

You're SO SOUR. God knows what your life is like.

I know we've discussed them here before.

I was confused by their reference to "ATM machines." Don't the Brits call them "Cashpoint?"

I prefer the snarky Irish youtubers who try stuff

[quote]I was confused by their reference to "ATM machines." Don't the Brits call them "Cashpoint?"

No, we call them cash machines

R39 funnily enough the company that they all worked for (Facts!) shut down due to horrible management. So they all went back to their original channels.

No, R41, they've started a new channel called the TRY Channel. Unfortunately they've brought back the asshole leather jacket guy who had quit the original channel and started up his own which was devoted to bashing all things American. His presence has always been a turd in the punchbowl.

Oohhh now I have more videos to binge, r42! I love John, he is a cutie!!

God they're fug on that Irish channel

I've now got these VLOGS coming up on my YT feed - which didn't used to happen until I started watching Joel & Lia.

This came up and I've been watching this guy and he seems really charming (I guess that troll is going to accuse me of shilling for saying that) and his videos really professional.

R42 no, they shut the company down. Someone may have started a new company after that but the Facts. bloggers all got laid off. They all complained about it on their channels.

The leather jacket guy wasn't that funny, although I do like the sound effects on his shows.

This one as well - he went to Poland for £5 (about $8)

He has more subscribers than J&L - but he's a teen so I guess those are the age group most into this sort of thing.

That deliveroo video got 2,3M views in under a week. That's some following.

start your own fucking thread with those fugly Irish cunts

I think Lia got a nose job and it seems to me she is in love with Joel, who for some reason won’t admit he’s gay..

[quote]no, they shut the company down. Someone may have started a new company after that but the Facts. bloggers all got laid off. They all complained about it on their channels.

Yes, I know they shut Facts down, I was just saying that they were no longer dispersed among their individual channels, they'd started a new one one, Try. Semantics.

[quote]I think Lia got a nose job and it seems to me she is in love with Joel, who for some reason won’t admit he’s gay..

She MUST know - but I think they've decided to keep it secret. He's very elusive in the "dating" in America VS England video. They seem to find their "partners" online....which is odd for attractive young people.

[quote]No, we call them cash machines

That's what I always called it (in DC).

Why did they stay in NEW JERSEY when they went to New York? And she admits it "got boring" and now they're moving to Brooklyn. Staying in AirBnBs. They couldn't swing Manhattan? Very odd.

They have to keep taking trains into Manhattan. What a bore!

He's got some dreary English girl friend who lives there who's showing them around.

They don’t have a ton of money so that’s why they stayed in NJ.

I don’t think Joel has a girlfriend, that girl was one of his old friends from England who now lives in NYC.

My Lord, Brits. At least attempt to hide your envy of Americans. Be posh about it.

He's gay. Reminds me of a toned down Perez Hilton. This duo is just nothing special even by Brit standards. Their outright envy of Americans is just "pitt-able". 😅

[quote]I don’t think Joel has a girlfriend, that girl was one of his old friends from England who now lives in NYC.

I didn't say she was his girlfriend - I said girl friend.

I think they're pretty fucking keen on America - they never stop talking about it.

I can't think of anything more depressing than going to NYC and having to stay in some Air BNB in New Jersey. Shit!

They're brought out "products"

T shirts that say "not my vibe" - $30.00

and

Baseball caps that say "triggered"

and NO, I am NOT promoting them - I don't imagine in a million years any DLer will rush to buy them

CORRECTION: The fuck you caps aren't Joel & Lia's - Joel & Lia's stuff is a subdivision on that site.
