He chose to include that in his video.

I Refuse To Accept Logan Paul's Apology

Logan Paul.

This is becoming more of a household name this past week, and not for a good reason. Logan started his internet fame with Vine, and slowly moved to YouTube and television. In his most recent vlog, he showed a dead body. Not just any dead body, a suicide victim.

Unfortunately, someone chose to take their life in the Aokigahara forest. This forest is known in Japan as the Suicide Forest. It is not something locals take very lightly.

Logan Paul and his friends ventured into the forest and found a body. Instead of turning off the camera and calling for someone, he filmed it. Sure, I can see where he was in shock, and it was filmed without thinking because he is a vlogger.

What I can't see is why he chose to edit this into his video.

I'm sorry "Logang," but that is not okay. Those who are defending him, need to stop. Especially after the half-ass apology that he put out there. In the apology, he claims, "This is a first for me. I've never faced criticism like this before."

No Logan, you haven't.

Most people don't get this criticism because most people don't consciously show the world a dead body hanging from a tree. It is understandable that he wanted to use this video to raise awareness for suicide and suicide prevention, but instead of making a short clip explaining what he saw, Logan Paul decided to show to viewers what he saw.

When a famous YouTuber does something wrong, it spreads like a wildfire. This is a classic case of it.

Another case of wrong is by Jenna Marbles. Although it isn't in the same frame as Logan Paul, it was wrong. Jenna went to a pet store and wanted to buy some fish. She was ultimately given the wrong information, and once the comments let her know -- the video was taken down.

A 50-minute apology was released by Jenna Marbles that explained her side of the story, and why she thought it was best to do what she did. A 50-minute video compared to a minute and a half apology video from Logan Paul seems a bit off.

I don't think Logan Paul needs to try to apologize anymore. He needs to get off the internet for good because people don't forgive easily.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
