"We're LMG. Even when our content is serious, we have elements of fun in it. This has always been our style and we wanted to send a message to our community that just because the suits are talking about workflows and processes, the fun isn't going away."
I get what they were trying for, but it didn't work out at all. This was the ONE time they should've been serious the entire video.
