Seems like a real shit hole place to work

Holy fuck. I'll never give LTT another view. Fuck Linus and his company. I hope the good people there get out and find success, but anyone that stays has no integrity in my opinion.

How come anytime I read about this guy it always involves his groupies sending death threats?

I have never felt the need to use YouTube for anything aside from classic comedy clips, music, gameplay clips and trailers. So, YouTube personalities like these pass me by. I'm one of those types who instantly closes a video if I hear commentary or talking over it. I don't want to hear that shite.

However, I have watched one LTT video before when doing some electronic engineering classes, and we were shown one to explain some thing I can't remember. I do remember saying the guy seemed like a prick, to the chagrin of others in my class

Well, guess who feels vindicated today! Me!

What’s really creepy is, Linus let’s his employees and wife model in underwear to peddle his merch. I mean, what’s the job description there? You are a writer and an underwear model?
