Christmas Update
Added 2022-12-24 20:06:38 +0000 UTCHello, Smellies.
Happy Christmas (we said 'Happy,' not 'Merry,' in my household, and it's the only tradition I respect) to everyone who celebrates it.
Since I forgot to post about it here, as you probably saw, the Oof video went up for everyone else. It has, uh, exploded, in a way I wasn't fully prepared for. As a result, a lot of people have reached out with more stories and interesting notes. Somewhat shockingly, upon a close fact-checking by knowledgeable parties, my main mistake appears to have been giving Tommy too much credit. I don't normally do follow-up videos but one feels inevitable for this. I'm going to put it off for a little bit, just to make sure Tommy has time to respond if he wants to (or if he can, lol).
I have a little bonus video planned which I wanted to get out before I started travelling to see family for Christmas, but as I write this post I am no longer at home, so I've missed that deadline. I aim to get back and have it finished before the new year, along with a proper update on the state of the channel and what to expect going forward. It was fun keeping the Oof a secret but the next few videos are really stupid and I want you to know in advance.
Thank you all so much for supporting me making stuff. I continue to be astounded, shocked, and above all thankful, that this is my life.
When my loved ones and extended family open the awful gifts I got them because they are worth nothing to me, the brief flash of joy on their faces before they see what it is was brought to them by you, your kindness to me allowed me to afford to do so. Really, you are my real family.
Fuck off Dad,
- Harry

Whether Tommy posts a response or not, I 100% want this follow up!

2023-09-28 03:03:07 +0000 UTCCongrats on the success of this one! Also, just wanted to say that your Bloodborne video inspired me to beat the game back in April. I went back a few weeks ago and platinumed it. Now I'm starting Elden Ring. God help us all

2023-01-03 06:27:52 +0000 UTCFrankly, whenever I read "Merry Christmas" I hear it yelled in Alex Jones's voice now. Thanks for that Hbomb!

2022-12-30 20:05:56 +0000 UTCI hope Joey sees your video and realizes his work is appreciated and there are people who still care about creators and actual facts. Plus, that video made me realise to never piss hbomb off.

2022-12-28 09:09:28 +0000 UTCI appreciate that you take the time between videos for yourself and your process. It's not easy to be deep into other people's worlds to research a video and then translate that coherently. Sometimes, the most fascinating stories (such as OOF) are the most unbelievable and really challenges us to accept what our culture and society has wrought. You bring with that a deep sense of empathy that I definitely can feel through your generous portrayals of your subjects (even if they don't agree).

2022-12-28 06:08:01 +0000 UTCthat oof video was spectacular thank you hbomb :) i've been rewatching your vidsm and i gotta say most of them are fantastic, funny, and informative (i don't agree with your dark souls 2 opinion but that's fine it's ok to be wrong sometimes ;)

2022-12-26 17:45:01 +0000 UTCYour videos got me through the pandemic, god bless. Also, I know a half dozen larval TT's in the gaming industry... I don't know what the deal is with that industry in particular... but man the video gave me flashbacks to dealing with a former friend and colleague

2022-12-25 01:38:12 +0000 UTCJust a little thing--presumably you've already found out about Tommy seemingly writing his own Wikipedia page, but that page also states (or at least stated when I read it) that he was the FIRST playtester at Virgin Interactive: that's right, the very first one. The provided source doesn't back this claim up at all. Extremely funny that even randomly looking up Tommy I found another weird insane lie without even looking for it--makes me wonder what other ridiculous nonsense he's said that nobody's realized yet.

2022-12-24 21:34:33 +0000 UTCHappy Day Formerly Known As Christmas, Mr. Splimby! May your day be filled with the joy of watching your family members suffer as they try to look excited while opening the presents you got them. And remember, the War on Christmas is real and people are laughing at you for even saying “Happy Christmas” 😁 For real though, love the channel and hope you have a good holiday!

2022-12-24 21:15:28 +0000 UTCI knew I should've checked the comments to see if somebody else made the Bill O'Reilly joke first.
Penny Gotch
2022-12-24 21:11:01 +0000 UTCMore lies? Did Tommy actually pay other people to write his music? Is Tommy's mother not actually proud of him?? Is he actually incapable of pissing and thus the waterfall doesn't affect him??? I'M ON TENTERHOOKS. Oh, and Happy Christmas! Not that we're allowed to say that considering the War on Christmas. Remember, as PJW says, it's not just some Bill O'Reilly nonsense any more!

2022-12-24 20:40:33 +0000 UTCTake your time. I'll await the treat of you continuing to roast Tommy. Also I have a feeling he was lying about his involvement with Earthworm Jim 1.

2022-12-24 20:14:34 +0000 UTCCHRISTMAS?! Have you defected to the side of Christmas? Or were you always a double agent? I feel betrayed
Wolfgang Bailey
2022-12-24 20:14:09 +0000 UTCYesss, there is nothing I want more than an update to this crazy ride! I keep thinking about the part where he claimed they designed the Metroid weapons around his sound effects. That might be the single wildest line to me out of a buffet of wild claims.
Mary Cagle
2022-12-24 20:13:23 +0000 UTCHarry won't even say Merry Christmas! This is not some Bill O'Reilly meme anymore. This is a full on WAR ON MERRY!!! Enjoy the holiday, hbomb, love the videos
