* The numerous well wishes on his forum after he revealed his heart condition which prevents him from doing too much strenuous activity. Many went on that they were perfectly fine with him taking time off from his videos, in contrast to the usual [[Fan Dumb]] who keep complaining that they come out too slowly.

** Although that didn't stop quite a few [[Fan Dumb|trolling idiots]] from complaining... although this was followed by probably one of the only times [[Unpleasable Fanbase|a majority of his fanbase]] did something unanimously in trying to throttle them.

* The moment in his commentary for the ''[[Highlander: The Source|Highlander the Source]]'' review where he gushes over Freddie Mercury, and says if anyone out there can legitimately imitate his voice, they need to get into the music business right now. Especially since it [[Mood Whiplash|comes shortly after]] his somber reflections on one of his fans committing suicide.

* In the Final Fantasy X finale, he managed to talk Black Lantern Spoony out of a murderous rage by reminding him of why he started the site in the first place. {{spoiler|Followed by trying to blow him up with a box of grenades, but still, the speech itself was legitimately "awww" inducing.}}

To share our experiences with bad movies and games. Not to hurt people, not to kill people and take over the world. I'd like to go back to that. You're right, what happened to you was wrong. That's why I'm glad you came down, because I was hoping after a good fight we could hash it out and... I could give you your christmas present at last."}}

* In his 2/9/11 Wrestle! Wrestle! talking about a recent storyline on [[TNA Impact]] - discussing the impossibility of dragging your real children into a fictional storyline about your actual ongoing divorce and the hurt that this traumatic event does to kids. This troper's parents split when she was little and Spoony encapsulated her feelings on the thought of using children going through that kind of emotional pain for other people's entertainment perfectly. For that he deserves a giant hug!
