When was the last time you were around middle schoolers? They do that all day every day - he speaks their language.

Yea I never got why he became so famous. I'd watch him do a gameplay of some scary games and he would just scream like a toddler most of the time.

"Forbes has named Felix Kjellberg, more commonly known as PewDiePie, as the top-earning YouTube star on the planet after earning $12 million in the past year."

Holy shit.

And I don't get the appeal either. I've seen a couple of videos that my son was watching when he was into Minecraft and I guess he's entertaining (certainly a strong personality), but I don't really get it.

His fan base is 98% pre-teen. Sponsors are getting hosed.

I don't let my kids watch any YT'er who curses. Instant "turn that shiz off!"

And this guy should just stick to the video games rather than branch off with his personality.

Dude is like 27 years old now. Wonder how long he'll be acting like a little kid while playing these games.

Then again, he has so many millions just stacked up he never has to work ever again. Though, at this rate he might just go Anders Breivik.

He is risking $12 million a year to branch out of his typical videos. Seems pretty stupid to me.

What's more bizarre is the people that like him, how do they enjoy that I don't understand.
