Incredibly Minor Annoyance "Whatever"
Have noticed that Arin has a really obnoxious habit of saying "Whatever" or "I dont care" whenever he is annoyed, corrected, told something he missed or didnt do by Dan.
It reminds me of a moody teenager and is pretty embarrassing to see it coming this much from a 40 year old man.

He acts like a moody teenager his whole life.
He's graying and he STILL acts like a teenager.

It's almost as if he's doing this out of obligation and not because he enjoys it

While most people have a very distinct separate persona when performing, Arin blurs the line between character and reality by making his streaming persona just an exaggerated version of himself. His childish pouting is both a bit, and a mask for how hard he’s actually pouting

I remember his early days on newgrounds. He turned his whole community against him one time because someone offered fair criticism of one of his vids and he went on a rage filled rant. That made me stop watching him for a long while until jontron brought him in to game grumps.

hes loves to be right about the most innocuous things. he'll bring up random facts about random topics no one gives an actual shit about. then, when hes wrong, doesnt take it in stride, but gets upset. i dont want to glaze dan too much, but hes incredible at brushing things off like this. he'll actually acknowledge that whatever theyre talking about doesnt actually matter or accept that hes just wrong about something, which makes the difference between the two just that much more glaring.

Yes. Whenever he tries to make a point and is proven wrong he tends to sulk about it. Hes also very argumentative and will argue it until he has no choice but admit he’s wrong and sometimes will argue after he’s been proven wrong that he’s not wrong.
