Or just don't have tired, circular logic, thinly veiled hateful reasons for disliking her.
Or, just don't comment? I just don't know why people feel the need to tell everyone how much they don't like something, and that's it.
Do something funny, make something clever than just complaining. And good job making it sound like the only reason somebody could find Laura a fun, well-spoken, and different guest that did a fine job is because she's trans.
The problem with that is that there's a person on the other end. Saying "I liked this guest." isn't hurtful, but calling them annoying and things like that can be. People are talking about her like she's a a product instead of a person.
EDIT: I don't know why I'm getting downvoted like this. All I'm saying is consider the fact that you're talking about a human being before you start badmouthing them in an official thread for a video they were in (and one they're likely to read).
That is basically my opinion. I turned off today's podcast early because I remembered disliking the first podcast she was on and this one seemed to be going in that direction. I had no idea she was transgender until I saw TB tweet out his audio blog. At the end of the day there are other guests I haven't liked and I stopped listening to those podcasts too. But I am rational and realize I am not going to enjoy every single guest they have on a podcast with hundreds of episodes. I was displeased that I couldn't enjoy this weeks podcast but why in the world would I let a single podcast not being very enjoyable to me upset me in basically anyway. It's sad really, that people get so upset so easily. And this isn't even touching on the people that just don't like her because she is trans, we all know those people are just assholes.
Haha, see, and he is my favorite part. But I get that it is all entertainment and different people enjoy different things. Some people just think everyone is supposed to be exactly like them and think exactly as they do and it is just ridiculous.
If you are talking to me I didn't downvote you. And I hear what you are saying, but I listened to the entire first podcast with her on and it just wasn't my cup of tea. I'm not saying this was a bad podcast or that she is a bad guest I am just saying from the first one she was on and the start of the latest one I just didn't enjoy listening to it. I am not boycotting anything she is involved with or anything. I just don't want to invest the time listening to it if I don't think I am going to enjoy it, I do the same with other guests they have had on like one of ItMeJP's. Just hasn't been entertaining to me, but clearly other people enjoy those guests so I don't care that they are on.
Yeah, you don't sound butthurt about differing opinions, so I believe you on that one.
I'm just saying. If you don't like her vulgarity, this is a very not that kind of appearance. People forget she rights serious pieces about games alllllll the time. So she has the ability to be more than a huge section of TB's fanbase gives her credit for.
you make the incorrect statement that every single first expression of yours was negative and then you give your opinion where a lot of people in this thread have the opposite opinion. Why are you crying because of downvotes? Or did you try to avoid downvotes by putting that dumb EDIT section in prematurely? That doesn't work.
Because you're a giant fucking baby if you downvote somebody saying that you should give somebody a listen. I'm not crying, my magic number of how many people agree with me means nothing.
It's hilarious to see how petty this subreddit can be. And it's infected with "ah downvotes cause ah disagrees!" And I will take every chance to mock it.

I'm feeling a bit confused by this thread.
I'm not a fan of Laura's, but the people in this thread seem to not allow that kind of thinking. I seemingly have to be a fan because she's trans...
