SMPSpam

I had to post about this, because it cracked me up.  I was browsing through the comments again on the last Katers video when I saw someone comment about Cory having said something.  Took me a bit to find it, because he posted it as DudeLikeHella instead of SMPFilms.  What cracked me up is that the comment was marked as spam.  If that's not proof of peoples' attitudes about all of this, nothing is.

As for the content, blah blah:
Hey guys! First of all, lets take a big breath in together. Ready? In.... aaand out. Feels better right? We all just need to relax. There's a good reason for all of this. She'll clear it up for everyone soon. On behalf of myself and Kate, we're sorry this happened. We don't hate you but we do appreciate you all for the years you've given us. As for the rumors... I'm pregnant. :D

Don't you think it's funny that his attempt to calm people down came shortly before a Tweet from Kate to plug Ding Ding's Youtube channel debut?

 ..I swear I think my intelligence drops a little every time I say that poor dog's name. 


Anyway, if it turns out that the car break-in incident is what triggered this, then give me a break.  She's an attractive girl on the internet who shares her life with thousands of people; of course one of them is eventually bound to get too close.  If the car had been locked and the alarm set, then maybe they wouldn't have gotten inside very easily.  Cory's jeep is another story, because any random kid could get into one of those.  And besides, we've heard no evidence that it even was a fan who did it.  People break into shit.  If you park two cars near each other then it's no surprise they'd target both. 

Not to mention, does she think her address is a secret?  Quite a while back I found out where they lived after a few minutes of Googling and some looking around on Google Maps.  I was able to figure out exactly which apartment was Kate's (back when she had her own) and Cory's just from various camera shots of one vlog.  And this was purely out of curiosity.  I think it was back when Kate had said that her mother told her not to walk around at night time, and then a few videos later there she was out walking around at night to Target or something, which prompted me to see just how far out she was dawdling around in the dark.  I think around the same time I also found out where Shay Carl's fancy new house was in Idaho, because I wanted to check the property value, which ended up proving to me that he had way more money than he let on, because he'd bought it outright.  Regardless, point is, nobody's information is truly secret.  It's just a matter of degree as to how difficult it is to obtain it.  In the case of the aforementioned Youtubers, it was incredibly easy.  Don't be surprised when someone with ill intent shows up, and then suddenly screw over your entire subscriber base and career in response.  And again, we're still assuming it even was someone from the internet.

So anyway, yeah.  Kate will likely release some tearful video soon, then, trying to reconcile with viewers (read: limit lost income potential).  Many of them will come running back to her to say "I knew it" and immediately attempt to separate themselves from everyone who posted a negative comment.  A number of others who did respond negatively will then apologize, or simply accept Kate's apology, and resume their regular posterior endearment of her.  The amount of negativity from everyone else, however, is still yet to be seen!
