thinking about how for one glorious, horrible session of third life, skizzleman was basically the grim freakin reaper.
thinking about how in session 7, he got eight whole seconds into his episode before declaring that he had to kill somebody today, that today someone would die.
and he did kill somebody. two somebodies. two red lives.
y’know skizz is the only life series member to have ONLY gotten permakills? everyone else has gotten at least one kill on someone other than a red life.
thing about it is, skizz was very, very bloodthirsty that episode, but despite that bloodlust, he actually arguably spared as many as he slew. after jimmy’s death, scar was still relatively cornered in that same box, and while the rest of the red army did tell him that it was the banner or death, skizz was the one to rephrase that to “give up the banner and you get to live”, which was an opportunity that scar took to change the situation from Combat (a fight he would lose) to Negotiation (a fight he can, and did, win). after cleo’s death, he even more explicitly spares bdubs, allows him to go because, unlike cleo, bdubs didn’t attack ren.
it’s not just the murders that make me describe him as the grim freakin reaper, it’s the long-term effects. obviously the permakills stay permadead for the rest of third life. but the folks he spared came second and third in duration of being alive, and the guy who won the season was the guy who ultimately killed him. for one glorious, horrible session, skizz determined who lives and dies, not entirely to his own benefit.
and THEN. so obviously the permakills stay permadead for the rest of the season. and cleo’s already technically undead, so uh. bottom text.
but then there’s jimmy. the guy whose failed bomb defusal set both himself and skizz to red life, the guy who skizz was hanging out with during scar’s death, the first permadeath of third life and of all other life serieses since. i could make a pretty convincing argument that jimmy is still feeling the consequences of the arrow skizz put through his him, seeing as uh, he’s still permadying first in life series to this day. grim freakin reaper. long-term consequences.
and this is a kind of ridiculous tangent to go off on about someone who is generally just a silly goofy guy who is unflinchingly loyal to his friends, but like, it’s also true.
it’s like. skizz caused the first two permadeaths of third life and then became the third. we’re all just normal about that?

what i think some people don't realize about skizz is that. that guy is NOT pg. i mean technically he is? but... honestly. he's like sausage. it's subtler but once you notice. he does Not stop making innuendos and dirty jokes like. ever (over-exaggeration but still)
and then there's the podcast. take this post from @theworstbiscet
for those wondering yes he fucking did. body language and the exact length of the bleep noise? yeah he did.
imp & skizz podcast is a *prime* location for Concerning, definitely-not-pg clips from skizz
also just wanted to share this quick animation from the lovely @colliewolf because a) i can't find the original clip and b) collie's art is amazing and you need to see it !
i'm going off the top of my head so here's two more! though i don't have the time or energy to find the clips, we also have-
"I can't beat off four people at once!"
(this was physically painful to type) "Get in the butt! Are you in yet?"
what the Fuck is his idea for the poe poe office. why is that so. dick shjaped

Jimmy may have a bad memory but he is a CLEVER and hardworking boy
who pays very close attention to how other youtubers do things, and takes notes, and works so hard, and now he has 810k subscribers because he knows how to do it.
(well, sometimes clever and always hardworking)
context:
If anyone wants my spreadsheet just lmk. my data mostly came from the youtube wiki and MaxData's visualization of new life smp members' subs numbers. oh, i'll include that!
Jimmy was at 609k when new life started in may 27. he made a (lovely!) pink house.
Twenty one days later he's gained 201,000 subs.
Between cpk and pix now probably, having jumped ahead of oli & pearl.
Y'all when people talk about jimmy being dumb, watch and think how much is an atrocious memory, and how long is not being quick to understand things. If he settles in and works at it! If he's in a group event in mcc and not individual! If he has a strong team captain in mcc who he can listen to! (he's said the last one is how he succeeds).
Jimmy can fucking do it, just in his own way - and he doesn't care to put a lot of effort into learning some things that some viewers want. As I barely care about minecraft, I do have an interesting perspective here! <3
Jimmy can't just get by on his minecraft skills plus his winning smile, comedic timing, charisma, and skill at social rapport and interpersonal... okay I've made it sound like a lot but he has some brains. Those brains just don't know the recipe for... things I also don't care about.
Jimmy Solidarity. You appreciate him. Good.
