Video taking off 7.6x its usual first day

'I'm not gonna get bullied into buying this one': dinocornel and a pair of slides

The comment section has its own idea about the purchase, and the likes came in about four times faster than on a usual dinocornel short.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 270,191 views a day, 7.6 times a normal first day on this channel (35,514).

Twenty-seven hours old, and the newest short from dinocornel had passed 300,000 views, roughly seven times what one of his shorts usually draws in its first day. On a channel that bills itself as the home of "the ultimate nerd," this one is less about the gaming room and more about footwear.

The title sets up the standoff: he is not going to be pushed into buying "this one." The comments describe the item as a pair of slides, and much of the talk is about the price. Some viewers find it far too steep. One recalls what brand-name shoes cost in the Philippines, while another says he is exactly who the product is made for. The most liked joke suggests buying them anyway and handing them to his wife.

The likes may be the more telling part. They arrived about four times faster than usual, and several commenters treat the climbing count as a vote, announcing that he has passed 10,000 and that it is time.

The story did not end there. Later the same day he posted "Why am I always the victim," with #hyperslide added to his usual tags. Earlier in the week, "Bro making horror documentary" and "Bro is not a scalper" each drew a big crowd too, while the channel as a whole has had a quieter stretch than usual.
