"All the ire I get is from random dafties," says Trinca. "It can get me down when it's really unnecessarily vindictive, body-shaming or that kind of thing, and anyone who follows me on Twitter can attest to that. But mostly I just laugh at the idea that someone out there feels so strongly about some stupid comment I made in a podcast or whatever that they need to write a six-paragraph response on YouTube, as if that's a productive way to spend your short time on Earth. When they're getting angry over something that's clearly not intended to be taken seriously, it's even funnier. I should feel bad for causing them to waste minutes of their patently wretched lives."Some folk are just fannies. It could be video games, it could be cars, whatever that sort of person is into they're going to take it too seriously and get worked up over silly rubbish. I'll take a tenner bet that there are folk out there, right now, threatening to batter each other over whether or not the Dyson Airblade is a better hand dryer than an Armitage Shanks model. I said the Dyson Airblade is shite on Twitter once, and some guy on there called me a dick and said I wasn't using it properly. People have strong feelings about toilet appliances."New on Noisey: R.I.P. Sheezer, a Eulogy for the Greatest Cover Band Ever

The deputy editor continues: "We're all quite different from our characters. I'm not as much of an asshole, and Jim is a pivotal part of the crew and not just the camera wonk. His writing, editing and acting work is uniformly superb, even if he keeps referencing Kubrick, the fucking wank. Most people start off by presuming our characters are our natural personalities, or somewhat close, but, as with everything, VideoGamer takes the wrestling approach: amp up your default personality to outlandish levels and fuck around with what happens. I don't even own a helicopter. I know, I know."New on Munchies: We Spoke to the Drunk Guy Who Bought £350 Worth of Pizza for Internet Strangers
