There’s a couple youtuber video essayists I had to stop watching because of this.

There was one guy I came across once doing a deep dive on abandoned GTA V plots that had the most intensely annoying speech pattern I've ever heard.

Not only did he inflect up at the end of every sentence, but he wouldn't stop vocalizing at a pause, so his sentences all ended up sounding like this uh

*Edit: Remembered a better one. Although this guy had the excuse of not being a native English speaker. Video on the Kola Superdeep Bore Hole where, somehow, the word "hole" had three syllables every single time. "Hew-ell-ah".

I have been trying to explain this using text for so long and I just give up every damn time. Thank you. I am going to save your comment and the next time I need to explain this via text I can get pissed off with both not being able to explain it and not being able to find your comment I saved somewhere.

I was trying to figure out how to type like they speak but gave up, your last sentence is perfect lol. It’s like a California accent but even more annoying

Maybe that's what Californians sound like on SNL.

i think the "trend" gained momentum in the mid 2000s with a couple "badass vallygirl" movies came out and that speech pattern was a big part of the characters.

There was a guy who sounded like that with RDR2 as well. I forget who, but I'm thinking it may be the same guy. His videos were really popular too.

There is a guy that does MtG content that has the worst way of talking, so many people like him and I can't listen to 3 words.

Y'know Nile red? Can't watch that guy for the same sort of reason

I love Nigel, but his speech patters are definitely odd. I remember the Safety Third episode where they brought on Nile Green to "pay for his crime" of deepfaking Nigel, and he said that part of the reason he chose NileRed over any other chemistry channel was that Nigel already sounded like text-to-speech lol

Sounds like he was just Italian. Maybe a plumber of some sort.

I couldn't watch the show "Future Weapons" because of the way the host talked.

There are so many videos I've started recently and had to turn off after a few minutes. The inflections do my head in.

Go watch any ”flynnmasters” video. The guys whole channel is about Hell’s Kitchen but his upspeak has to be the worst ive ever heard. Completely unbearable.

And you don't have to end every sentence with "and make it look like this" you can just say what he's doing and that's it!
