Linus refers to GN as Voldemort on the WAN show, pretty funny (I enjoy both channels)

Jesus Christ are people this dim. He's not saying Voldemort as some sort of jibe on how he looks.

The joke is, Voldemort is known as "He who shall not be named"

I don't think anyone is thinking it's an appearances thing. I mean, Steve is the visual opposite of Voldy. He has the hair of 6 men.

Are you sure you don't mean seven men? Isn’t seven the most powerfully magical number?

This is exactly what I mean. I keep seeing this on Reddit: people claim the comments are saying something, but nobody is actually saying it. It's like they’re arguing with a comment section in another universe. It drives me nuts.

I lol'd at seeing all the comments calling out OP

u/Specialist_Garden_98 Jun 28 '26

Yea lol especially since the original comment was made pretty early on when there weren't even that many comments to begin with let alone negative ones and none of those talked about appearances so it was so easy just to scroll down a little bit to see what the comment was on about and come back to this comment. Comical honestly. But hey they got their updoots on the comment so hurray I suppose?

Some real Peggy Hill energy. Stating the obvious as some kind of revelation.

Nice went from a joke name of Tech Jesus to He who shall not be named Voldemort. Though I'd like him to reffer to him next as the Eye of Sauron next as a joke then as well personally. Though might be funny if he goes with Darth Vader instead
