Just learned there is a guy called Nikocado Avocado on YouTube and all he does is put a huge amount of food and eats it and gets 100ks of views. Further research shows that this is a trend now called mukbang.

Yea mukbang was huge in South Korea maybe 10 years ago if not a bit more. It managed to spread to America

I mean, the new Twitch follower leader who topped Ninja earned many of his followers by sleeping on stream, among other things. People are just desperate for a connection, even if it's a weird one.

Was more a constant stream though, with the time extended as more people followed, so more of a stunt than people wanting to watch him sleep.

Andy Warhol really was a genius.

Have any of you actually watched Man Sleeping, at least for a few minutes? It's riveting, in that it makes you want to emulate it very quickly.

If you're talking about ludwig, he definitely did not just get popular because of sleeping on stream. He was active in the melee scene helping create content and slowly got a following from that, and then with streaming with major players such as mang0. I don't watch the dude but I definitely am rooting for him, he's repping my community (melee) and has given back a lot to the scene.
