Here's someone I haven't talked about in

0:01

a really long time, but today I saw a

0:04

clip of one of their streams recently,

0:08

and I fell down the rabbit hole again

0:10

just kind of checking up on them to see

0:12

what's been going on. Only Use Me Blade.

0:15

Only Use Me Blade might have just

0:17

triggered like a Winter Soldier moment

0:18

in some of you watching this because he

0:20

was one of like the first big Call of

0:22

Duty YouTubers. He was huge back in the

0:25

day in an era where YouTubers weren't

0:27

really like a thing that existed. He was

0:31

very popular and beloved by the

0:33

community, but he unfortunately had a

0:37

struggle with alcoholism. And over the

0:39

years, that demon only grew. It got

0:42

worse. He became a full-time degenerate

0:45

streamer doing awful and he grew a

0:50

community that was there to eat some

0:52

popcorn and point and laugh at the clown

0:54

putting on a show of pathetic, terrible

0:58

shenanigans. I made a video on him many

1:02

years ago now, covering his sad journey

1:05

and the awful that he had been

1:08

doing during that time. But I hadn't

1:10

checked in on him in a while until

1:12

today. And somehow

1:15

against all known sciences, against God,

1:20

he found a rock bottom below rock

1:23

bottom. It seems like he is even worse

1:26

now than he was then. He went below the

1:28

bedrock straight to the Nether.

1:30

And it is actually so like sad. And I

1:35

really think this can serve as like a

1:38

big PSA to to anyone out there about

1:41

what alcoholism actually looks like. I

1:43

I've been seeing like a lot of those

1:45

headlines about how, you know, the new

1:46

generation isn't drinking as much.

1:48

That's a really good thing. That is a

1:50

very positive thing. I swear watching

1:52

clips from his stream is like an episode

1:54

of Scared Straight. Now, Only Use Me

1:58

Blade is not a good guy. Alcoholism

2:01

aside, he has done horrible things like

2:04

I mentioned. And a lot of it is in

2:06

combination with his drinking, but even

2:08

still, it's not like that's an excuse

2:11

for some of the that he's done.

2:13

This includes some really unforgivable

2:15

ones like a possible sexual assault.

2:18

Now, as I said, he is fully back into

2:22

excessive drinking, and he recently

2:27

confirmed speculation that he lost his

2:30

toes, that his toes needed to be

2:32

amputated.

2:33

>> Show us the toes. Show us the stump.

2:36

Show

2:38

>> um Okay. Well, during my the

2:43

poetic part about it is yeah, um during

2:47

my year off from drinking, um

2:51

the I got an infection in my foot and

2:55

the

2:57

uh years of abuse in my body,

3:01

I lost my toes, dude. So,

3:05

uh I tried to hide it. Um,

3:09

but

3:10

still got my foot and uh not proud of

3:13

it, dude.

3:14

>> Chat asked for a little show and tell,

3:16

so he brought up what's left of his foot

3:18

and now they call them only lose me

3:21

toes.

3:23

I also saw some pictures from some of

3:25

his older streams that showed the state

3:27

that his toes were in prior to the

3:29

amputation, and they look like

3:32

charred sausages. It actually looks like

3:34

Frostbite. And it's from his excessive

3:38

drinking. It's called alcoholic

3:41

neuropathy. What happens is through this

3:44

much consumption of alcohol, it damages

3:48

the nerves in the foot. And what

3:51

happened here is he probably lost

3:54

sensation down there and didn't realize

3:56

that something was ary that because

3:59

circulation stops, you know, functioning

4:02

optimally. And so when he got that

4:04

infection, he probably had it for a

4:06

while and didn't even know it. And then

4:07

by the time he did recognize something

4:09

wasn't right, it was too late to save

4:12

the toes. Thus, they had to amputate

4:13

him. That's how it typically goes as I

4:16

understand it when it comes to alcoholic

4:17

neuropathy. And this is actually

4:19

something a lot of people saw coming.

4:21

You didn't need to be Nostradamus nor

4:22

Babaanga to predict that he was going to

4:25

have something like this at some point

4:27

because it was pretty well documented

4:30

that his legs were rotting. He had

4:33

holes in his legs that looked

4:35

like the honeycombs you collect in Banjo

4:37

Kazouie. He had soarses all around his

4:40

legs. It even had like some necrosis in

4:44

some places that look to be starting.

4:46

They were in rough shape. So, I don't

4:48

think anyone was really surprised to

4:50

hear that his toes had to be amputated,

4:53

but he did mention that this happened

4:55

during the break that he took with the

4:57

year of sobriety. So, it turns out he

5:00

actually took a pretty extended break

5:02

from streaming to be a full-time

5:04

caretaker for his mother. So, he is

5:07

currently at her retirement home as her

5:09

caretaker, but he's also very much back

5:14

into excessive drinking

5:17

like constantly.

5:21

>> Well, give me some death.

5:23

>> All right.

5:24

>> You're a black person.

5:25

>> Look at me.

5:27

>> You You assault us. Hawks.

5:30

>> There he goes. Seahawks.

5:32

>> You didn't

5:34

come to D. I don't know if you've been

5:36

drinking because I'm a

5:37

>> No, I've been drinking a lot. Dude,

5:38

>> you say I assault you. Don't come to me

5:40

with that

5:41

>> There are quite a lot of moments from

5:42

these streams where he's just this

5:45

wandering vagrant around the retirement

5:48

home just harassing the people around

5:51

him on stream. Like there's another one

5:52

where he's talking to an older lady

5:54

about how much she squirts. What's her

5:56

squirt ratio? What's your squirt ratio?

6:00

>> Like what?

6:01

>> Your squirt ratio.

6:02

>> You did not say that, did we?

6:04

>> I did.

6:04

>> Oh,

6:05

>> cuz I love you.

6:06

>> I love you.

6:07

>> And you got a dog and you need you need

6:09

to squirt, ma'am. You need to squirt,

6:12

ma'am. Fingered out.

6:14

>> Yeah, I promise you.

6:16

>> Hey, what's up? Free squirt. Get it.

6:20

>> Cuz he's trying to put on a performance

6:22

for the chat. So, he's, you know,

6:24

honking his nose. Bozo the clown here

6:26

and he's sloshed, absolutely hammered,

6:29

blackout drunk. It's just it's just an

6:32

entire life of lowlights. It's really

6:35

sad to see, especially

6:36

considering that he's supposed to be a

6:38

full-time caretaker for his mom, but his

6:41

mom is the one that seems to be having

6:43

to take care of him, her early 40s son,

6:46

who is now just unable to stop getting

6:49

blackout drunk and is passing out drunk

6:51

on stream and having the cops called as

6:54

a wellness check to make sure he's still

6:55

alive.

6:59

>> Yo,

7:03

hey,

7:12

Brian.

7:19

>> Yeah, I got you.

7:26

>> Hey, you good, man?

7:29

>> I have seen multiple clips of only use

7:31

me blade in that exact position. the

7:33

Peter Griffin falling down the stairs

7:34

pose there. Even after losing his toes,

7:39

he is still drinking to a catastrophic

7:44

degree. It's a miracle he is still

7:46

alive. Like it is unbelievable with how

7:48

much he has abused his body over the

7:50

years. And in between,

7:53

you know, drinks, he has like some

7:55

self-awareness moments about how much he

7:57

has destroyed his body and how awful the

8:00

alcoholism is. But he can't stop

8:02

himself. He He can't help it. That's how

8:05

strong the addiction is. I don't think

8:07

I've seen a clip with sheets on his bed.

8:10

And I imagine it's because he keeps

8:12

passing out drunk and pissing in the

8:14

sheets. Like no matter how bad things

8:17

have gotten for him, he just can't seem

8:19

to kick the habit. And that's not

8:21

exclusive to just only use me blade.

8:24

This is a very real, very evil and

8:26

insidious addiction that tons and tons

8:29

of people struggle with. Only Use Me

8:31

Blade just happens to broadcast all of

8:33

it for entertainment and has tied his

8:37

drinking to his income to a certain

8:39

extent. So like there actually have been

8:41

times in the past where he has attempted

8:43

to get clean and sober and he's gone

8:46

weeks, sometimes even months without

8:48

drinking. But each time he has relapsed

8:51

and I do think some part of it is

8:53

because there are people that watch his

8:54

streams that are solely there to giggle

8:56

at his misfortune. So they kind of

8:58

encourage it. Not everyone. There are a

9:01

lot of people that actually try and root

9:02

for him to, you know, come out the other

9:04

side and actually beat this. But there

9:07

are some that are solely there because

9:09

they want to watch him completely

9:10

torpedo his life and continue to

9:13

be in this state. So, like I can find

9:16

clips of him, you know, after a couple

9:18

weeks and then eventually he just says,

9:20

"You know what? I'm gonna have a couple

9:21

drinks." And he does it on stream. And

9:22

there are people that donate trying to

9:24

encourage him to stop. There are people

9:25

that reach out telling him like, you

9:27

know, "Please don't do this." And then

9:29

there's also people in his chat that are

9:30

like, "Yeah, yeah. Finally, we're

9:32

back. We're so back.

9:33

>> It's over tonight."

9:36

>> Uh, I'm going to have some drinks, dude.

9:37

I appreciate it, but I'm gonna have some

9:39

drinks.

9:40

>> You're doing so good, man. You are doing

9:42

so good.

9:43

>> I'm not I'm not making it a habit, dude.

9:44

Dude, I'm just going to have some drinks

9:45

and relax with chat.

9:46

>> You say that, but then you know, next

9:48

week you're going to be like, "That's

9:49

not making a habit." And you're going to

9:50

be right back to dropping end bombs and

9:52

getting in trouble again.

9:53

>> I do. Hey, man. I do appreciate you,

9:55

dude. Uh, thank you. Uh, this definitely

9:57

isn't going to be a habit. This is just,

10:00

you know, I'm going to have some drinks

10:02

tonight.

10:02

>> Spoiler alert. It did become a habit

10:05

again.

10:07

>> There it is, boys.

10:09

>> JRock has just donated $5. Love you,

10:12

buddy. After this, let's go out and

10:15

let's smoke some weed or something. But

10:17

Terry, THIS IS LIKE A VERY special

10:20

occasion.

10:21

>> There donated $3. Dude, please don't do

10:24

this. Don't throw away all that work.

10:27

Think of how good it felt to have

10:28

control in your life, to have your life

10:31

back.

10:35

>> We are good. Thank you, Terry. I love

10:37

you, dude. I'm definitely not doing a

10:38

quad, bro. Uh, I'll have a couple shots

10:41

for you. Um, but let's do this and go

10:44

smoke a sig and figure it out, right?

10:45

Like I said, there are a lot of people

10:47

really trying to get him not to. And

10:49

this has happened a couple times from

10:51

what I can tell. But again, there are

10:54

still some people in there that

10:56

encourage it. And I think to a certain

10:57

degree, only use me blade believes that

11:01

a large part of his content is drinking,

11:03

so it makes it even harder for him to

11:04

like fully stop. And he did take an

11:07

extended break where apparently he did

11:09

stop for a year, but he did come back

11:13

and he is now drinking just as much as

11:15

he ever did. He even recently got

11:19

arrested for urinating in front of

11:21

officers that were called to kick him

11:23

out of an area where he was just

11:25

publicly intoxicated and being a

11:28

nuisance. Just a pest that was bothering

11:30

everyone out in public.

11:39

Nice.

11:57

>> Okay, I'm going. Calm down. Your

12:00

breakfast ain't good,

12:04

The is she talking about?

12:13

>> All right. He's under arrest.

12:15

>> Oh no.

12:17

>> All right.

12:17

>> What' you do?

12:18

>> He's pissed right in front of me.

12:20

>> All right.

12:21

>> He can hardly even stand up and he's

12:23

bouncing around from person to person

12:25

there like a pinball

12:27

and just like stumbling around spitting

12:30

out mumbo jumbo. not even able to form a

12:33

full sentence. He was talking to the

12:35

cops for a little while there, too. Then

12:37

he came, got the camera, and then pissed

12:38

on some stranger's car in front of the

12:41

officers, just pulls his out,

12:43

pisses on the car, and gets arrested

12:46

right there for it. So, he's not

12:47

isolated to just the retirement home and

12:49

harassing everyone around there. He's

12:52

spreading his wings and taking it all

12:54

over the place while being able to

12:55

hardly stand or speak. And of course, he

12:58

still loves to be weird and creepy to

13:00

women every chance he gets.

13:03

>> L What's your name?

13:06

>> M. There's more people out here than

13:08

there are inside.

13:09

>> Is it okay if I ask you your name?

13:11

Sorry.

13:15

>> What's up?

13:16

>> I'll be the little

13:19

person. Hey,

13:22

>> I love you person.

13:24

>> Love you, too.

13:25

>> You're awesome. You should What's your

13:27

name?

13:28

>> You You cuddle really hard. I'm sorry.

13:30

>> With my like cuddle cuddle with my dog.

13:34

>> You cuddle your dog. Figure it out. Hey,

13:37

my name's Brian. I love you.

13:40

>> You girls. Okay.

13:41

>> Yeah. I need to take a photo of this.

13:42

This is

13:44

>> That's a certified. Now, that's what I

13:46

call RZ moment right there. Holy

13:50

regular old Casanova.

13:53

So again, he is blackout drunk here.

13:57

He's trying to get this stranger's name.

13:59

She doesn't really want to give it to

14:01

him. Uh so she she gives like an alias

14:05

and then he just keeps saying like,

14:07

"Hey, figure it out." And and then says

14:10

his name and then says that she cuddles

14:12

really hard.

14:14

I I guess I guess that's flirting,

14:19

I suppose. And then her and her friend

14:22

are like very weirded out by it. So they

14:25

both start recording. Well, we can see

14:27

she starts recording, but the other

14:29

person she's with also said that she was

14:31

taking a picture or something for the

14:33

memories. I imagine they're doing that

14:35

just in case things get hairy.

14:37

It's for their own safety so they can

14:39

videotape the wacko that's

14:41

approached them here. It's just a

14:44

disaster, man. It's absurd. So

14:48

yeah, I I hadn't seen anything from Only

14:51

Use Me Blade in a while and I he just

14:54

got put back on my radar today and I

14:56

couldn't help but just jump down the

14:57

rabbit hole to see like what's been

14:59

going on over the years with him. Still

15:01

not good. And I genuinely think he

15:05

showcases what alcoholism really looks

15:08

like and just how hard an addiction is

15:12

to beat. I it is something very very

15:16

serious and it's awful man. It

15:20

really is. So anyway, just wanted to

15:22

yapp about it. That's it. See you.
