Is Ben Finegold as big a jerk as he seems in his videos?

I watched some of his videos and i dont like his style.

IMHO a good teacher should always have respect for the audience, no matter who the audience is. Maybe i just dont understand his humour, but generally talking i think there is a difference between being funny and being rude . If you want to see how to be funny and polite, look at the Seirrawan videos, expecially those for kids ( Seirrawan: "Yes, young lady" ): example.

While Ben ... hum .. err ... is not ( imho).

If there are people happy with his style, i have nothing against that. Different people like different things it sounds to be just fair enough.

I can't stand Yasser. Sounds like he's talking to a 6 month old baby all the time

Let's hope being a vegetarian is my only flaw....

He seemed friendly when I met him a few weeks ago. But I only spoke with him for a few minutes.
