Who or what is Jerma? - eviltoast

My younger friends all talk about this Jerma person like he’s some kind of mythical entity. An eldritch being that cannot be explained for any attempt at explanation inevitably fails.

I am confused. From what I could gather he’s like… A streamer? Content creator?

    All content creators are entertainers - the good ones are well aware that it’s basically just a long form performance art.

      streamers fall into two camps: “performance artists”, and “filming yourself farting into an echoing pipeline, laughing so hard at the sound that you uncontrollably wheeze and sob for a solid 5 minutes, and repeating until you have to go eat dinner”

        If the latter kind of streamer has a solid audience then they’ve found a niche… even if it’s juvenile.
