Steven Week 2023: Steven Humor

Steven Week 

It’s Wednesday July 19th so today’s prompt is...  

Steven, food, and how he makes you feel about it! 

So, random fact about me, I actually had not really watched Worth It (or Buzzfeed Unsolved for that matter) prior to getting into Watcher content. My first real introduction to any of the three of them was their Watcher launch/announcement livestream and so my first experience with Steven food content was:

I absolutely adored this show and am heartbroken over the timing that it came out due to a certain big, global event. But I am still so happy we got to have the wonderful episodes that we did. <3  Steven has this magical way of connecting to people, wanting to celebrate them and their stories with the utmost respect and reverence. He honestly seems to know everyone and it’s no surprise as to why. 

In Homemade he showcased the love and passion that can go into cooking family meals, the collaborative process of making it together,  the joy people get from eating it.  (Honestly, the editing for this show was some of the most fantastic I’ve ever seen as well <3) 

This show is so underrated tbh. I loved watching Steven going through each aisle and finding all the ingredients while he simultaneously interviewed the guest of the week. Like jfc, the questions he asked were always so thoughtful and personalized, and he’d always take the time to mention the impact that said guest had on his life. I’ve never seen someone who has better interviewing skills than Steven Lim. 

Steven “I want to create a show where I express my love for those in my life through the language of food” Lim. Steven “I want to make your dinner dreams come true” Lim. Before contacting each guest to see what kind of dish they wanted him to craft, he would take the time to talk about how he knew the person and why they were important in his life. He’d want to go above and beyond each guest’s expectations, consulting experts in the field from his ROLODEX OF CONTACTS APPARENTLY (whose work he would also take the time to acknowledge).  And for his Mom and Dad too?!? Who are some of the sweetest people on the planet?!?! (Now we see where he gets it from <3)  The episode where he makes breakfast for his parents was especially important to me because that was the year that marked multiple years of me not seeing my family members for the holidays and so watching this during that time was extremely comforting <3

Steven Week 2023: Steven Humor

Steven Week 2023

It’s Tuesday July 18th so today’s prompt is...

Steven Humor! Let’s dive into some classic Lim Laughs.  There are honestly far too many funny Steven moments to name; as someone who is equal parts sincere and sarcastically humorous, you never quite know when a Lim Laugh will strike next, and this is the only time I like surprises XD

When Ryan preferred Steven’s drink over Ricky’s on TMS and Steven ran around the perimeter of the brick sitting area and fire pit before doing a spirited tap dance of victory. Iconic. 

When Steven was on Top 5 Beatdown for “Chain Restaurants” and gave literally 0 f*cks about the comments made towards his picks. 

(For context, Ryan said Steven flew a bit too close to the sun with his first three choices because his final two sucked and Steven said this in response).  (Mad respect for a guy who has literally dined on the finest of foods but still loves Skyline Chili. <3 )

When Ryan was out sick and couldn’t film Watcher Weekly in person so he hopped on the phone, and Steven was so sick (heh) and tired of his shenanigans that he Peppa Pig’ed Ryan off the call. 

When Steven overfilled the instant pot with liquid for a soup he was making as part of a meal for a Michelin Star Chef (no pressure! ...cooker >:D) and called it ambition. (Honestly, also a good message we can all use in our lives <3 )

Steven Week 2023: Steven Looks

Steven Week 2023 It’s Monday July 17th so today’s prompt is...

Steven Looks! Let’s explore Steven’s style over the years. 

One of Steven’s most iconic looks has been whenever he’s dyed his hair blue; it’s the color I see show up most in various fan art. A truly Limtastic Look for sure. 

Although Steven’s most iconic shade of blue hair dye is featured below, this was the OG of Steven’s blue hair at Watcher. Note the darker navy color, adding an elegance for everything from filming an unscripted talk show to meetings with investors as the lead of Watcher’s business side. Blueberry indeed. 

THIS is the true blue of Steven’s hair, more of an electric, neon shade, illustrating Steven’s constant determination to go the extra mile. If Watcher had a makeup palette, this eyeshadow would be referred to as “Elimtric Blue.” 

Here we have a look that was peak Early Watcher Steven, a dusty rose sweatshirt whose fit offers the sophistication for a work meeting but also the comfort of a cozy night in. 

And finally, another amazing look from Steven here during a season of TMS whose theme was “1920s Speakeasy,” we see him donning a white shirt with pinstripes and a subtly plaid patterned button-up vest, combined with black slacks. The picture of professional, Steven demonstrates why the term “pattern mixing” was born. While normally stripes and plaids might clash, Steven’s shirt and vest compliment each other by featuring a neutral background color, with lighter, simple colors for the patterns.

Welcome one, welcome all!

I am very excited to announce Steven Lim Appreciation Week 2023! Much thanks to @monsteraficionado​ for the fantastic banners.

Steven Lim is one of the founding pillars not only of Watcher Entertainment but of Youtube as a whole. For almost a decade, he’s pioneered food, culture, good living, humor, and just plain fun through his work as a host, producer, writer, CEO and so much more. He’s also just a lovely guy! I feel like all he’s given us throughout the years should be celebrated, so…. here we are!

This event will be held from July 17th to July 22nd. You are encouraged to participate as little or as much as you wish. Gifs, fanvids, memes, text posts, edits, reblogs - all are welcome! There is no “right” way to enter the party as long as you come with your heart full and ready to have a good time.

Because we have held wonderful appreciation weeks for Steven before, this time around I chose to make the prompts for each day a little narrower. I wanted to specifically focus on aspects of Steven I really wanted to laser in and highlight. Please take them as guidelines and not rules! If your muse strikes and you want to post something about Steven that’s not in the prompts, you are not only allowed but encouraged to do so! The only rule for this week is love. :)

That being said, let’s get into the prompts!

Monday, July 17th - Steven Looks! Steven is quite the fashionista. This is a day to gush about his hair, his style, your favorite photos of him or just times that he looked plain good.

Tuesday, July 18th- It’s not for nothing that Steven is often crowned the funniest Watcher co-founder. He’s hilarious, he can sell a bit like no one else, his sense of humor is both dead-pan and all consuming: what I’m saying is that the man is THE comedian and I feel that deserves to be highlighted. 

Wednesday, July 19th- This prompt is particularly personal to me because I feel that Steven has had such a positive impact on the way I regard food. He’s introduced me to completely different ways of thinking when it comes to cooking, opened up whole worlds I didn’t even know existed, and also encouraged me to regard it with joy instead of trepidation. He infuses the world of food with so much love and I am excited to see how it’s impacted his audience!

Thursday, July 20th - Steven has had so much impact throughout his tenure as a content creator. This day can be a chance for you to talk about his influence on the most important person… you! It can also be a time for us to reflect on his friendships with Shane, Ryan, Andrew, Adam, the Watcher crew, the Buzzfeed Worth It crew, anyone and everyone that has had the privilege of calling Steven a friend. Or the people he’s highlighted on his shows and made a difference for like the Pasta Sisters! 

Friday, July 21st - I don’t think a Steven week would be complete without a look at the shows he has given us throughout the years on all sorts of different platforms and across media. If Steven has hosted, written, produced, appeared, his presence felt, his impact acknowledged, then it is free game to highlight why it’s special and why you love it.

Saturday, July 22nd - This is just supposed to be a general Steven celebration. Though - again - these prompts are meant to be gentle suggestions and not rules at all for what you can post on whichever day, Saturday is a time for you to discuss anything Steven related you can possibly think of! If you have something you really want to highlight that didn’t fit the other prompts, well… now is your chance!

Please feel free to reach out if you have any suggestions or questions. In the spirit of Steven Lim, this is an event for all of us, so I am perfectly happy to adjust or consider as needed. This event will be tagged as StevenLimAppreciation2023 or StevenWeek2023. I encourage you to use those tags so we can find your appreciation quickly and easily!

A big hearty thank you to @slashsleuth​, @noa-nightingale​, @shaniacsboogara​ and @stevielims for all the help brainstorming. My special thanks to @wheezingghoulbois​ and @monsteraficionado whose previous Steven & Ryan weeks really helped with inspiration for this one.

Happy Steven Lim Week, y’all!
