Personality
Throughout his videos, Michael claims to be a friendly, supportive, giving, outgoing person; although he can go into fits of rage if people talk bad about him or send him bad comments (such as calling him a ginger and fat). But despite all this, Michael claims doesn't care if they put him down (since he says that it will never work) and he will always make videos no matter what (even if they tell him to stop making them, or if they keep hating on him).
He is also a fan of RuneScape since March 2001 and plays under the username c0ppercab. In "PARTYHATS FOR EVERYONE," he said that he even had a tape of him playing the game for the first time.
Sometimes, Michael argues with Mema, although they truly love each other.
