I do not understand the celebrity of PewDiePie. I really don't. He's not... just not remarkable to me at all. I don't get it.

I saw a video in the comments under his Know Your Meme page that attempted to explain it, and I guess I can buy the idea that he's popular mainly due to Youtube's popularity algorithms just happening to work in his favor and then it all feeding back on itself. Aside from that, I really don't understand it either.

The only video of his that I've watched all the way through was of the SCP-087 game, and what little I recall of it was mostly him just screaming like a tiny baby at every little thing. I later attempted to watch his Slender video and just couldn't tolerate him at all a second time. (Not to overhype the Two Best Friends Play guys or anything, but I much preferred the Slender playthrough vids that they did.)
