David Hurwitz

I'm beginning to think that we should have two Hurwitz threads.  The constant debate sours the thread for those that just want to talk about his latest content.

You, sir, deserve a blue ribbon for unadulterated optimism

The thread was not set up to discuss content. It was set up to be nasty about Hurwitz. It's no surprise people have followed through on that.

Indeed. Once you know that he invariably scoffs at any comment which disagrees with him, why commenting again?

One of the things which make him so admirable.  😎

Yes you're right.  The new thread should be about Hurwitz content and the original can carry on with the nastiness!

The dichotomy I suggested above goes exactly in this direction. I don't share at all the unqualified, nasty dismissal of his videos but neither do I fail to notice that he shows his own nastiness in the way he treats dissenting opinions.

And perhaps we now see a suggestion that there should be no dissent in this thread. Call this half- or one-third-kidding.

Dude's uploaded like 8 videos in the last 36 hours. Doesn't he know you can save 'em all up, schedule 1 a day, and take a nice long vacation??

Alot of youtubers do that so they can take Christmas off!

This is officially the first I've seen Christmas verbed! Just noting, not criticizing.

Unrelated, but I recently got an email saying "What is your address? We have a gifting for you" and it made me want to scream. We're not giving gifts anymore...we're gifting giftings.

Oh, my!  That's quite a lot!  I'll have to check out the Kubelik big box set review.   

PD

p.s.  Bach's most embarrassing work...hmm.  I'll have to ponder that one. 

[Madiel]

The dissent consists of finding Hurwitz' videos useful. I started dissenting a long time ago.

My favorite Britishism that has stuck with me is saying "we'll be holidaying in ___."

Bach's Most Embarrassing Work

Haven't seen this yet but if it is the Coffee Cantata I will be sad.

To Christmas is human, to Santa Claus is divine.
