stalking ice poseidon-35f264a1-68ba-4151-ad85-b260c83b1e2e

It was supposed to only be 10 minutes away, dude, from the VR place, and we are 15 minutes away from where I want to go. We drove past it for 20 minutes. That's kind of wild to me, bro, that this dude is just driving and he has no destination.

Yeah.

He's just saying, we just, we just in this bitch because he's going for a ride. Like, what the hell?

Did I? Did I?

I don't know. I'm pretty sure I told him where to go, dude.

And you don't know, and you also not ask where are you going. You're just driving, bro. He's just driving. He don't know where are you going. No, nothing.

Show him the map.

He start the meter.

You know where to go?

Emporium?

Emporium?

Yeah.

All right. I mean, it's— I think Sukhumvit 24 or some shit.

Sukhumvit?

I think it's Sukhumvit 24.

Oh, Sukhumvit 24.

I think it's something like that. It's near From Phong.

From Phong.

Yeah, Sukhumvit 24 Alley.

Sukhumvit 24 Alley. Sukhumvit.

Deepak, listen to this video. It's the video that he made about me.

Oh, really?

Yeah, in case— and for anyone in chat, in case you didn't see the video, this is the one that— this is a video that he made about me.

I want to see.

These games are pretty punishing in terms of time, not to mention just to unlock this place we had to grind.

Hold on, not that one. My message to Paul.

Can you type for me?

Can you type for me this video?

I would never think those disgusting thoughts about those cute little Japanese schoolgirls. I was just joking around, messing around, trying to make the stream entertaining to the people who were watching. But no, people took it the wrong way, didn't think it was a joke, thought I was actually being serious. I can't even believe people would accuse me of thinking those dirty disgusting things. But anyway, I stopped live streaming outside Because I moved in with my wife and then I started streaming inside and it's just much more convenient, less stressful to stream inside compared to outside. So I'm really not, I'm really not exaggerating when I say that Ice Poseidon has been a huge inspiration to me and I could easily say that he's in my top 5 list when it comes to my favorite, you know what, streamers.

Thank you, thank you, Daniel.

You're welcome.

I appreciate that a lot. Yeah, that was, those are nice, nice words.

Yeah, I do like online entertainers or whatever you want to call it. So when I found out that he, he came to Japan and he was in Osaka, the city that's 20 minutes away from where I live, obviously I got a little bit excited and I ran out the door, jumped onto the train, and I tried to find him. And me and my wife, we tracked them down by watching their stream. We found them sitting in this little bar drinking and we introduced ourselves to them. We had a little conversation and then we went for drinks afterwards. And this is when I started to do a live stream and the The reason why I did a livestream wasn't so I could talk. I didn't do the livestream so I could start doing commentary. I did the livestream because I wanted to document this special moment for me, because it was a very special moment for me, a very big deal for me. I was finally meeting—

You really—

Someone who I—

You kind of do talk like ChatGPT.

Really?

Yeah, you kind of like, you just say a whole lot of shit with nothing out of your mouth.

I do kind of, as I used to say, I wouldn't even be able to say it because that Gary wouldn't shut up. It was like a machine gun, a bloody machine gun firing words 120 minutes a second.

Yeah, fuck Gary.

I'm a sniper rifle. I wait for my opportunity to say something. I'm not the kind of person who just feels comfortable screaming at other people because I want to say something. Where I come from, I was raised to listen to what other people are saying, wait until they finish talking, and then I start speaking. Usually in a conversation, it's called manners. It's called being polite.

Yeah, Gary.

Fuck you. You wait for them to finish speaking, and then you speak, and then they listen. You don't just start screaming on top of each other. Maybe if they gave me a chance to say something, then I would have said something. My other problem is that my voice just isn't very powerful. I don't have a very loud, assertive, dominant voice.

Me too.

If you haven't noticed already, my voice is very soft, very gentle, and I think this is normal speaking volume right now. My voice is at normal speaking volume. Gary and Ice Poseidon, they have such loud voices. Their voices are at least 50 times louder than my voice is. It's like they're using megaphones to talk. I would actually need a megaphone if I wanted to compete with them for conversation. If I wanted to be heard by them, and if I wanted to join in the conversation, I would have to start screaming and shouting. I would have to start speaking like this.

Maybe you should.

I'm sorry, but I'm just not very used to shouting.

You should.

My voice would run out of energy.

Try it.

My voice will run out of energy.

Yeah, but that's way better.

It hurts.

No, come on, it's nice.

You'll get used to it, bro. Hold on. Do it for a couple days and you'll get used to it, bro. Come on.

Okay, I'll try.

No, not like that. Just assertive. Use your diaphragm. Come on. Hey.

Hey.

There you go.

What's that better?

Hey, fuck Gary.

Fuck Gary.

Fuck Gary.

Fuck Gary.

Fuck Gary.

Fuck Gary.

You say you look up to me, right?

Uh, yeah.

What?

Yeah, can't hear you. Yeah, so then talk louder, bro. How you gonna look? You gotta talk louder. That's what I do.

Yeah.

Okay.

Look, this is a church, guys, and I find it kind of offensive when you get these loud extroverted types and they call me weird or they think I'm a weirdo just because I'm very quiet and I'm not joining in with all the conversations and I'm not shouting and screaming like everyone else is. I'm just not a very loud person. I think it's a little bit unfair to call someone a weirdo just because they're not as loud as everyone else and they're a little bit quiet. Some people are just quiet, some people are just loud. I also felt a little bit annoyed when Gary and Ice Poseidon started wrestling inside of the elevator. They started body slamming each other into the walls.

That was pretty scary.

The whole thing was shaking like an earthquake and I was actually scared.

I won, I beat his ass.

I was worried my wife would get crushed. I was worried that the elevator was going to break.

Oh, your wife got crushed, alright.

Yeah. Me and my wife, we're just tiny people. I'm only 5'8, nearly 5'9. My wife's about 5'4. Ice and Gary, they're like giants. They're 6 foot something. And they could have easily—

6'3, baby!

And I wouldn't be able to stop them physically because I'm, I'm not big enough. I guess I was a little bit shocked and surprised that they acted so childishly, so immaturely in front of a lady.

I would expect that kind of behavior Would you say that you act more mature than, uh, than myself in front of ladies?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I guess.

I don't know, because I don't talk much, so that seems kind of immature.

Not, not grown adults. I'm not great at talking. Nice Poseidon as well. 25. And they were acting like a couple of kids. And then there was this bell at the paying counter and they started hammering the bell until it fell off the counter. It was so embarrassing. I just felt really embarrassed. Yes, I feel a little bit disappointed because I didn't get to speak to Ice Poseidon much and he didn't really show much of an interest in me. And this was a surprise because usually when I see his other fans approach him in streams, he shows interest in them and he talks to them. But I just felt like he wasn't interested in me.

He was very quiet.

Quiet. He just talked to Gary Woods, Gary's stream, not—

Because I wasn't talking?

Because you sit there in silence and don't say anything. I can't talk to you. Even right now, I'm trying so hard. I'm literally putting all of my brain power into trying to have a conversation with you for the stream, and it is—

Is it hard?

It's nearly impossible. So if I'm not even streaming, because Gary was streaming, I wasn't even streaming. If I'm not even streaming, I'm not gonna try this hard to have a conversation with you. You either open your mouth and talk, or you gonna sit there and be a weirdo, which is what I called you. That's why you made that video.

I'm sorry.

He made the video because I said he's a weirdo.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's pretty weird.

I'm not saying you don't think it's like we we met up and then you sat in silence the whole time. Yeah, weird as fuck, dude. Just talk.

I don't know what to say. Don't you ever not know what?

Well, if you don't know what to say, why do you? Why did you meet up with me? What's the point of meeting up with somebody and then not talking? You might as well just stay at home.

It's interesting.

Yeah, but then then what?

I don't know.

It's interesting, but then what? Like okay, when just sit there and stare at me the whole time and say nothing.

I was waiting for an opportunity to—

An opportunity?

Jump into the conversation.

There would— no, there's never going to be an opportunity. You all— you have to just do it. You have to just jump in. There's never an opportunity. No one's ever going to be like, all right, it's Daniel's turn. You got to just jump in, break up the conversation.

Yeah.

I know that. It's just hard.

Then do it.

It's hard.

Why?

Because I might say something and then no one hears, and then I feel silly.

No, you got to scream it.

Yeah.

You just got to be louder, dude. What is this? Oh, and here's the elevator thing you're talking about.

Yeah, that was cool, buddy.

That was your wife.

Yep, I think she likes it.

I'm telling you, she wanted it, bro.

He's not even filming it!

He's not even filming it!

I don't even care if you're racist, try it.

Things get heated with Ice Poseidon and Gary the producer in an elevator.

This is a Japan video?

That was what you were talking about. Yeah, the elevator wrestling.

No, she wasn't even in danger, dude. Yeah, seems like she could have been.

You know what, Daniel? Listen, I'm willing to help break you out of your shell, bro. I'm willing to help you, but you can only help yourself. I can guide you, but you can only help yourself. Yeah, like if I tell you to do something and we get out here, stop. Stop, stop. We we get out here. If I tell you to do something, you gonna do it?

I have to think about it.

No, no think about it. Just do it, bro.

We get out now.

Okay, let's get out here.

Drinking.

He says he gets more quiet, bro, when he drinks.

Is that yours?

Oh yeah, that is mine. Thank you. Did I lose that power bank?

Got it.

Okay, all this If you took some modafinil, you'd be hot, bro.

What does that do?

If you took modafinil, bro, you'd be chilling. What's it do? It's gonna break you out of your shell.

Fuck. I'm gonna get—

let me get a coconut water from 7-Eleven real quick. And you're gonna talk to the cashier.

About what?

About the coconut water.

But you don't need to talk. You just say, "Can I have a coconut water?" No, no, no, no.

I'm gonna force you to talk.

What?

And if you don't talk to her, then you gotta leave.

What should I say?

I'll tell you what to say.

Don't worry.

Okay. Oh my god!

Hey, what's going on? Yeah, thank you.

What? Yeah.
