Is Jay really such a derp?

[NewInTown2]

Derp back to da closet.

Case closed

I don't know about you, but when I'm told by a mysterious follower to go back to the creepy, abandoned house I checked out before, I'm sure as shit not going back at night.

[Bubblymuerte]

But wouldn't he be less likely to be caught if it was at night?

[The Kempest]

Is that really the thought process when you're being chased by Slenderman?

[Bubblymuerte]

... Good point.

The derpiest thing Jay ever did, in my opinion, was go back to the house more than once, and at night for that matter. Perhaps the circumstances pursuaded his eagerness to obtain answers which makes it slightly more understandable, but no matter which way you look at it, I don't think most non-fictional people would do that.

In any event, I don't think Jay is as derpy as we all like to joke about. His tactics can be borderline of highly inefficient, but I don't think most of us would be able to handle the situation much better than him.

He is becoming more and more competent it seems, however he is truly a terrible liar and I don't think that will change.

Edit: Also how is this for being dumb?

-Being stalked by Masked Man.
-Gets replies by TTA on his videos.
-Decides to stalk Masked Man.
-Tells everyone on YouTube and Twitter complete with updates.

Now what if TTA or Tim just so happened to read Jay's twitter in the past few months?

Yeah, it's fun to joke about, but Jay really doesn't do that many goofy things given the situation he's found himself in. He just needs to realize that home invasion isn't the answer to all of life's problems.

I think we latch onto Jay being derpy instead of confronting our suspension of disbelief in the situations Troy has to put Jay in. Jay actually seems very methodical, and hesitant to jump to conclusions; unlike many here.

We consider Jay stupid for going to that same house on three separate occasions, two of which were in the dead of night, but it's also possible that he just has testicles of steel

Personally, I thought he gave Jessica three different answers showed us he WAS having difficulty with his memory... just because he's recorded it doesn't mean he watches every recording he's made of himself.

I also thought that was what helped initiate some of her trust in him to reveal she was having problems with this as well.

I have a question about the missing seven months, and some potential derpitude:

Jay is constantly filming during that time, right? We know that, because he eventually gets all his tapes out the safe and starts uploading the important bits.

Now, with all the stuff that happens to him- arriving at Creepy Abandoned House #2, Getting attacked by Masky AGAIN; FINDING. ALEX. Which was the entire point of his driving all the way out to RosswodTown in the first place. He never once stopped at a Starbucks, or a Home Depot, or a freakin' McDonalds (anywhere with Wi-fi) and uploaded a video?

I mean, I'm just saying. He could have. He has a laptop- we know that from the first entry of the season. There are footage files on his computer (noentry- though it could be debated whether he put that there or not).

It just doesn't seem like the smart thing to do. When Jay wakes up from being Operated On, he uploads videos to the account "In case anything happens," but during the ENTIRE seven months he doesn't do that at all?

Derp, Jay. Herp a derp durr, Jay.
