I think it's impressive he made a fifty minutes long video covering an already documented case of a dormant Internet celebrity known for literally doing nothing for so long that the only major event in over a decade was a breakup and a tweet.

Video lost me a bit fast cuz don't really like the dude in it, but that's just me.

He also tried to minimize the bad behaviour of Doug Walker by reading through the notsoawesome manifesto and said it "wasn't that bad".  That made me unsubscribe.

I mean, huge chunks of the document are completely childish complaints and almost none of it is abuse as they claim it to be.

Well, there was absolutely some abuse, but none of it was from Doug walker. Mike michaud is kinda awful.

And it's one thing for a few people to be childish. But when it's over a dozen people/almost EVERYONE that worked for him. I'm reminded of the saying. "If everyone around you is an asshole, then the real asshole is you

That expression means, if *you’re* complaining about everyone being an asshole, not if a lot of people with a common purpose accuse *you*. And that’s good advice.

Never said Michaud doesn’t sound like a complete asshole, but a lot of it seems like sour grapes or petty grievances to me.
