The Enlightened Edgelord vs the Heretic Gooner 

you know he's our streamer when he keeps a straight face while picking apart the psychology of a gooner

the librarian will never beat the wild card allegations, it's honestly one of my favorite recent bits of the stream

whoever in chat said "tragedy of the cummins" is the fucking king arthur of comedy

librarian has not known peace since the wild card eyeliner incident

NL is the tether between the depths of the Internet Peoples and the rest of humanity. A conversational conduit, if you will.

Your thumbnails are out of this world librarian

The squeaking noises add so much to this bit

"I am compelled by an ancient curse to speak only the truth" Things NL says I can see being 100% true

The last bit where he refused to let go got me good

09:15 was that the fucking 'ruined-mascara = wild card in balatro' reference lmao

Man the word edgelord really lost its edge these past few years

gooning is the runner's high of edging

the noble gooner seems to free his mind at night

11:00 - 11:12 love his phrasing, one of the best to ever do it

The thought of Dan on the other end of his computer taking notes and deep in thought pondering about the concept of gooning has me sent for weeks.

I'm the best gooner in the world AAAH I CAME

NL talking straight to the librarian with this one

Every goon is an edge, but not every edge is a goon.

Look, all I'm gonna say is real eyes realize real lies

edging is when u do it cuz it feels better for you, gooning is when it doesnt feel good to you to edge but you do it anyway cuz u dont want to have to find something else to do with your time

it's so cool that the guy I started watching for level-headed takes on being a 30-something moving into fatherhood now improvs prog wikis on the development of internet culture

The bit at 9:40 was killer xD Thank you, Librarian!

The bit at the end combined with the frantic swinging and the noise is just too much.

NL would be a great monk

To that one chatter at 2:44 dropping oh sees lyrics: I see you. The venn diagram intersect is real

i'm sad but i'm goonin'

The convo plus the creaking sound towards the end in the background is just too good 😂

"ohhh the red?" 🤣🤣

The wood creaking really enhances the experience here

i stand with librarian, the wild card sprite makes me feel things

Please! It's the same as the one with the square and the rectangle. Every gooner edges but not all edgers are gooners.

You almost got it right, Gooning is when you hire italian henchman who goes "nice one boss" when you tell a threatening joke

its your own fault for admiting those sinful truths about yourself, librarian

He's actually cooking. He is on to something here.

I think Benjamin Franklin once said “eat to live, but don’t live to eat”. Same shit with fapping. You’re a normal mammal that gets horny, being horny makes it hard to focused. Stop pretending to be above it, find an appropriate time to get it out of your system, and move on. Kinks and stuff are just little shortcuts on how you specifically get there faster. But if you’re reconstructing your whole lifestyle and identity around it, and it’s not something significant like what kind of romantic partner you can be with or your sense of gender/role in society, then you need to dial it back. But I think a lot of these people already know that and think they can get off to the self-humiliation aspect they perceive from it. So really the best response is to tell people “ okay” and “if you keep doing that I’m going to have to ask you to leave”.

I am quite new to Mr Lion’s content but am very happy to have found you librarian, to guide me through the mess

I, a gooner, personally love it when he talks about gooning

brother, if the mascera is a running im gooning. simple as'

Thanks for this, i got hit with an ad as soon as this rank started

10:00 the more you do it, the less the rules apply to you

why did he start to sound like a zizek analysis

Ultimately, edgers are able to control themselves, it’s like kaioken in dragon ball, you have to control the energy perfectly, else it explodes and your mind is lost to the goon, the edger is the Monk, the gooner is the barbarian

"It sounds like you never tried buying niche porn before" "You got me there" lmao

Edging is Goku, gooning is Broly

Edge of Time is a documentary then

Candy stand mini golf was an everyday thing for me in elementary school. Good times.

The falling girl game mention unlocked a deep memory

Gooners fell to the satsui no hado

1:44 chatter "goons law" lmao

Once you goon, you never go back.

he is the funniest person alive

NL knew he had gold when the squeaking noises was in the background

when he pulled out the wild card bit out of nowhere i fucking died

The Geno Smith/Aaron Donald "Oh my God" reference at the just really topped it all off.

I had forgotten about that mingolf game 😂 that shit was good

Candystand mini golf went hard when i was a kid, much like their famed lifesaver candies.

as a former gooner he absolutely cooked on this one

"You kinda have to edge to goon" modern-day philosophy

I was hoping for the gooning song at the end

Bros giving an interview with a haemomancer vibes

Certified gooner here, just came out of an 8 hour one handed Bubble Girl session. Everything he said is truth.

the only edging I feel is NL not jumping no matter how much he swings

NL could be either one in this thumbnail and I’m for it

I watched this video and then gooned to some degen shit for 3 hours, ty northern lion.

GENO SMITH SHOUTOUT LETS GOOOOOO

"what a day to have ears" at 5:15 was so real

All gooning is edging, but not all edging is gooning

we haven't ever seen someone get cooked this hard for being right

Gooners are trying for endless mode while edgers are just min-maxing the build

7:00 How is he this on point?!

as 31yo millennial I did not think this was gonna land on the run up but so true

I was concerned about the title of this video, but the straights still dont really know so its all good. Gooning involves heavy use of a certain sex drug.

Edgelord as in someone who likes skulls and heavy metal artwork, right? R-Right?!

In the august arena of intellectual discourse, the Enlightened Edgelord stood resolute, armed with the sharpness of logic and the splendor of reason. His opponent, the Heretic Gooner, possessed a radical fervor for defiance, challenging established paradigms with audacious glee. As the debate unfolded with exquisite precision, the Edgelord's sagacity clashed with the Gooner's unyielding depravity. In the end, it was not brute force or cunning manipulation that prevailed, but the luminous power of truth and enlightenment that vanquished the shadows of ignorance, leaving the Heretic Gooner in humble acquiescence before the prowess of edging.

Aaron Donald mention! So pegged rn

6:45 How the fuck...

11:09

To NL's point about OnlyFans being spammed everywhere, every NSFW subreddit I follow that allows users to post images of themself is completely ruined with OF ads and actual bots. It used to be that people would post nudes for the love of the game, but now it's all about driving engagement and getting clicks through to your Fansly or whatever. Just another step in the ongoing enshittification of the Internet.

LOOL

EEEE URRR EEEE URRR

what he say fuck librarian for?

6:20 second bald communist after Lenin Pog

Lifes so much easier as an Asexual 😊

09:00 - when NL speaks about Biology you start to understand that he doesn't know a thing about it :( Body do not eat testosterone. The body releases neurohormones oxytocin and prolactin. They suppress sexual desire and make body relax. But testosterone level stays the same. It leads to the younger man (pick testosterone) having shorter refractory period and older man having that period for hours or even days.

what is the song that NL is singing along with in the outro?

9:06 Simple, Porn is an addiction, the more you feed your addiction the more you want it.

What’s that song at the end called?

yo im early

porn really needs to be made illegal fr

NL ripping apart librarian less and less lowkey each day, he's getting too rich, he's getting too much money from the mcdonalds sponsor, he no longer cares about the gifted subs he's gonna spook him away

Where do the drawn characters in the thumbnail come from?? I wanna study the art holyy
