    3. Tim- fair call to delete for legal reasons.

    Maybe people should go find out about what this guy is about with google then.

    Type: blunty3000 in google and see the suggested search results before hitting enter.

    Still stand by my claim that you’re scraping the bottom of the barrel for guests and maybe should have done better research.

    Cheers.

    4. The above comments are irrelevant, it doesn’t change his insights. Good interview, I certainly learnt something.

    5. The secret of havink a popular YouTube video is to press ze “Go Viral” button.

    6. Art Vandelay, are you a profesional moron? Just because you “read it in the Internet” doesn’t make it true. Any half-wit is aware that anyone in the public eye is subject to trolls and rhumours. I suppose if you read that te PM sleeps in a silver pyramid to increase his sexual powers, or one of the websites that claim that the
    moon landing was faked, or that there’s an international conspiracy to hide the cure for cancer you’d belive that too? People make shit up to try and fuck with people, for many and varied reasons. Only a complete idiot would believe anything he reads about people online.
    There was even a rhumor once that I was an American actor and my Australian accent and persona were all fake to help me “stand out” believe that too?

    What is in the cup you drink from in the opening credits?
    It looks like a classic ‘air-sip’ to me, but maybe it’s Pepsi Max?

    8. The word “hit” has really lost relevance if applied to YouTube amateurs.

    10. Hit a raw nerve Nate?

    I’m only going on stuff you’ve said in your own videos.

    Never watched your ex-girlfriends rants which I guess you’re referring to.

    And Zac Martin- good interview or not- I’m just saying the quality of guests has gone down a bit if you’re dredging up guys like this.

    11. Even so- gotta hand it to the guy- he’s even got his own urbandictionary entry.

    12. Art, being accused of something (and then having that turn into a troll-fest on the internet) and actually having DONE something are not the same thing.
    My record is utterly and completely clear on this issue, feel free to check with any actually credible source. (and no, ED, internet trolls, and urbandictionary.com aren’t places one goes to find truth… idiot)

    13. Fair enough Nate

    Again- I was only ever going off your side of the story, in a video you, yourself, made.

    I mean, come on… You didnt really come out the other side of that smelling like roses did you.

    14. I have to say Art, you yourself are not coming out of this smelling like roses. In fact you are coming across like a bit of a tosser.

    15. Maybe you’re right DD.

    Or maybe I guess some of us dont really like guys who (partly deleted for legal reasons – Tim, Mumbrella).

    Couldnt really give a toss either way.

    16. hey Tim. Great. Start the banter with a controversial ‘ban’ .. and you’ve got us all! guessing and researching ! Brill. Joking apart – I don’t know much about dear ol’ Blunty … but if Art reckons he’s bottom of the ‘pile’ – what a great mixture you’ve got.
    I’m a fan.

    18. Hi Jenni,

    Art Vandelay is George Costanza’s alter ego in Seinfeld. If memory srves, if he’d been successful, he’d have been an architect by that name. There was also a Vandelay Industries in the show too, I seem to remember…

    Cheers,

    Tim – Mumbrella
