I'm kindof thinking that regardless of all the ridicule and scorn he received, he actually got what he intended out of this whole charade, which is clicks and internet engagement. Sadly, on the internet, negative attention is the same as positive attention. Over a hundred years the phrase "There is no such thing as bad publicity" has been around so it is not just the Internet. Just maybe even more ramped up. I want to to know how with liquid water available you don't know you could cold soak a FD dinner against your torso if you can afford the body heat (maybe armpit for extra flavor?)

Just maybe even more ramped up. Very true. I do think social media content and youtube channels in general thrive on negativity, so yeah, definitely ramped up. It looks like his channel has picked up almost 1,000 new subscribers in the past few days. His average video views are 5k and this one has almost 300k so its probably mission accomplished for him.
