* ScrewedByTheLawyers: Wade used to stream on Twitch...only for Twitch to stop paying him. As he explained in a video discussing the matter, Twitch has more or less refused to help him, as they've done with other content creators. After getting in contact with Luke from LinusTechTips, he's since moved to streaming on Floatplane.

* CreatorsPest: He really, really hates the eBay Global Shipping Program, to the point that he's made various hate videos on it, all of which describe their wreckage of boxed [=MP3=] players as being "slashed and dashed in Kentucky". It even ended with him no longer using eBay's services after he revealed in the third video that an item he purchased was ''stolen'', and [[https://youtu.be/1wycPVQAR74 another video]] revealed that some warehouse employee deliberately tore open the plastic wrap on a sealed and brand new iPod that had been purchased specifically for use as a subscriber milestone.

* DoingItForTheArt / MoneyDearBoy: While Wade does do the videos for fun and entertainment, he does take note that his channel ''is'' his job now and makes it clear that his fans are the reason he gets everywhere these days. The 'for the art' aspect kicks in at the fact that Wade squarely uses Patreon money to do his channel work than sponsors, which he hates doing.

Due to crazy fans and his own interests and such, he more or less has abandoned using Twitter and dropped Discord due to a fan finding out his phone number.
