"For a digital knife?" - Dr DisRespect telling fans to "do better" than offering $100,000 for his CS: GO knife leaves online community divided

Prominent YouTube Gaming streamer Herschel "Guy," also known as "Dr DisRespect," has taken the internet by storm ever since he unboxed a rare knife in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. For those unaware, the "Two-Time Champ" is competing with Tyler "Ninja" and Timothy "TimTheTatman" to get the most sought-after collectibles in the tactical shooter.

On July 22, 2023, the streamer opened a Chroma 2 Case, through which he managed to acquire an exquisite M9 Bayonet - Doppler. Sharing his delight at the opening, Dr DisRespect exclaimed:

"It's my all-time favorite game. It'll always be my all-time favorite game. (The streamer unboxes the M9 Bayonet) It will! Yes! Whoo! It'll always be my all-time favorite game! I love Counter-Strike! Yes!"

The next day (July 23, 2023), the content creator took to Twitter to tell fans that they "can do better" after being offered $100,000 for the in-game item. With over 900 community members responding, Twitter user @JHartley2 expressed their astonishment at Dr DisRespect's sentiments.

They commented:

"For a digital knife? I have that knife IRL that we deployed to combat with. Doubt it would see an offer over $100 if I tried to sell it. Strange to see how high a value our world places on some things vs others."
