Watching those videos got me thinking what’s a good antonym for charisma. A quick Google search points to the word obnoxious which is close, but not quite right. Then I started wondering if the sudden rise in popularity in the word cringe as an adjective is because there just aren’t that many words to describe this kind of anti-charisma.
I can't think of a single word for it, but in Berra's case it can be described as a deluded egomaniac.

He has been like that since at least 1994. I showed him around Idaho falls with the old foundation team and he threw his board in front of one of the ams that was killing it at the spot. Steve literally waited for him to go try the trick and pushed his board in front of him and kind of hurt him. Berra has been awful for a very long time

Anyone else noticed they changes the title of the "Influencers" video to "Community"

“Community” “Cariumunity” is the theme of the entire BATB12
This fuxxin’ shoe company gonna straight up PURCHASE their credibility by buying up a big chunk of The Borrics debt & forcing those shills to cram their brand down the throats of kiddos. I’ve never seen so many cases of (to invoke Dave Fuck here) Who?!?
That Joes list is packed with their version of the Braille warehouse crew.
Very ugly look, Steve.
And,I might add, desperate.

Jeron Wilson, Kelly and Chris from 9 Club are confirmed then? They mentioned on last episode.

I've seen a lot of YT comments saying how John Hill will go far, but I don't know... I've never seen him do a hardflip back 180 or whatever that trick everyone does is.
[close]

He's pretty average in both flatground and everything else - especially if you consider "he's a pro". Maybe he can beat one or two influencers, but he will get skunked eventually.

Let's see if he'll pay the Berrics 10,000 dollars.
[close]
Said he's not doing it, told them no apparently but they still announced him.

[close]

How funny is that. Some of the influencers realized they don't need berrics as much as berrics needs them. Good for them.
[close]


this is the funniest part to me. This feels like a really weird "gotcha" attempt by Berra but it's really more of a self-own. I just checked and that Andy Shrock guy alone has like 4 times the number of subs that The Berrics has.
[close]

Well yeah, but not even Berra stoops low enough to extort his kids by posting videos of them playing with Legos…

If this John Hill screen-cap is real... it's actually really lame. Pulling a "power move" on the Berrics for what reason exactly? What a pussy.

They were the best. Diego Cepeda was gnarly too, but I think he quit skating (I think I read somewhere he had some trouble with law).

They should’ve just had an open call cuz every skater is gonna claim “I’m not in the right headspace”
John hill is a bitch
Just go skate and lose who cares

Still offended they didn’t get anyone from slap in the influencers category. The real influencers are right here

If John Hill and Andy Shrock are too cool for school (and the Berrics)...  How about some fill in skaters... Shaun Rodriguez.  Other names mentioned on the YouTube clip. Jewburt.

I didn’t come here just to defend John Hill. In fact, I know very little about him. I looked him up and skipped through a bunch of his videos. That guy actually seems like he’s got some weird introvert shit going on. He skates by himself, talks to himself at skateparks, coffee shops restaurants. No wait, he only talks to his subscribers through his Vlog camera. It seems very unhealthy. It’s like he lives in the weird little YouTube bubble. I can’t speak for any other other YouTube guys but this ones a bit eccentric.

Here’s a video where he does his best attempt at making this behavior pass as normal

What’s a ribs man? Is it some cross promotion with McDonald’s where the guy skates in a McRib costume.

i know skateboarders aren’t typically known for their intellect, but this is a gross misunderstanding of what the word icon means
