I can't think of a dude that's more annoying than MM. I followed him for about 2 weeks a few years back. Seems like all he did was fudge on people.

And deets on the auction:
In addition, we’re going to be having a silent auction for some of Gabz’s The Force Awakens prints, which were signed by director J.J. Abrams! As with Glen’s print, all proceeds of this silent auction will go directly to AJ’s GoFundMe.

Is MM popping off about this too? Wouldn't know. The snowflake blocked me. Couldn't take questioning of his criticism of the Florey Marvel Faceoffs.

I heard he started out by tracing and then filling in his shadow. But leaving out, like, a sword shape, or something.
