YouTuber Tanks Own Channel So He Can Do Video Essay About the Rise and Fall of It

RALEIGH, N.C. — In a self-defeating effort to generate more content, YouTuber Toaster Tim completely squandered what remaining potential his channel may have had in order to produce a video essay detailing the rise and fall of his very own career.

“I just ran out of things to talk about the rise and fall of,” said Toaster Tim. “Teletubbies, Twinkies, teen movies, you name it, I covered it. Eventually, there was no new material for me to cover and I had to turn the gun on myself. The gun being my snarky brand of cultural commentary, that is.”

In order to give a clean arc to his self-critiquing video, Toaster Tim had also begun posting subpar videos with more and more strained topics which commenters described as completely different from the content his fanbase had come to know and love over the years.

“Does anyone else think these videos have been a little weird lately?” commented ToastArmy99 on one of Tim’s recent uploads. “I know Tim has been on YouTube for over 9 years now, but ‘January 6th Themed Mukbang,’ ‘Tour of the Inside of my Pocket,’ and ‘Jared Fogle Interview From Prison’ feel a little off-brand for him.”

Fans’ confusion had somewhat abated over time, once it was revealed that Tim was simply trying to destroy his own career and future for a single video essay about his own downfall.

“‘The Rise and Fall of Toaster Tim’ is Toaster Tim’s magnum opus,” commented TimStan46 on r/ToasterTim. “It was crazy to see how he came to prominence, established a loyal fanbase, and then completely ruined his career on purpose. It sucks for him that his career is essentially over now, but at least we got a final solid 46 minutes of entertainment out of it.”

At press time, Toaster Tim announced that he will be pivoting to radical political content.
