A One Guy is an arbitrary member of Twitch Chat that is singled out by Jerma, usually because they just got lucky and Jerma somehow noticed their message. One Guys also occasionally appear on stream as a player, or in some other form.
Description[]
A One Guy is chosen by Jerma by some unknown process. The One Guy will say something - usually the opposite of what literally everyone else in chat is trying to tell Jerma - and by some divine force of will, Jerma only reads the message of that One Guy. He is then compelled to follow the orders of this One Guy, despite this usually leading to disaster and/or funny jokes.
The term has been used to refer to any member of chat that Jerma singles out or reads the message of, but is most applicable in circumstances where One Guy has a notable effect on the stream.
The One Guy "symbol" is taken from a placeholder BRB screen Jerma made in MS Paint when he was just starting Twitch streaming.
