The Mouse that Ran Away...

The Mouse Extends Her Stay – But Still Runs from the Spotlight!

Well, well, well… It seems that The Mouse, now going by the name James Shelley, has responded to my open invitation to appear on Matt Taylor TV for her final swan song before vanishing from YouTube. And what a response it was!

Instead of stepping up and facing the music, The Mouse has moved the goalposts, extending her grand farewell date from March 20 to March 31, 2025. A last-minute change, but why? Could it be that she just can’t let go of the trolling life? Or perhaps, deep down, she knows that leaving without addressing the people she’s tormented would be the real unfinished business?

The Cowardly Decline.

Now, onto the most telling part of her response:

“I’d rather have my teeth extracted, one by one without anaesthetic than talk to/with you.”
Really, Mouse? That dramatic? After ten years of lurking, trolling, and replaying my content, suddenly the idea of having a direct conversation is worse than medieval dentistry? If I didn’t know better, I’d say fear is at play here.

Why? Because when you live behind a screen, throwing out comments and playing games in the background, you never have to be held accountable for what you say. You never have to explain your actions, your motives, or your obsession with me and my content.

But the moment you’re invited to step into the light? To face someone directly? To have a real, live conversation? Suddenly, you’d rather be strapped to a chair and tortured?

That tells me everything I need to know.

"Nothing Unfinished"? Think Again!

The Mouse also claims:

“There will be nothing unfinished when I leave. Nothing.”

Oh, but there is.

For ten years, The Mouse has dedicated a significant portion of her life to tracking, responding to, and fixating on me (and others) and my (our) content. Now, as the final curtain draws near, she wants to pretend like none of it ever mattered? That it’s all neatly wrapped up, no loose ends?

Let’s be real here—the biggest loose end is her refusal to face me (and us).

If she were truly at peace with leaving, she’d have no problem stepping onto Matt Taylor TV for one final chat. She’d tie up those loose ends, clear the air, and own her actions. Instead, she’s running away, hiding behind exaggerated metaphors, and hoping that ignoring the invitation will make the questions go away.

Final Thoughts – The Offer Stands.

So, The Mouse—James Shelley, or whatever name you’ll use next—you’ve spoken your piece, but the offer still stands.

If you truly want closure, if you want to leave without unfinished business, then come and speak for yourself. Have that final chat. Set the record straight.

But if you choose to slink away without facing the truth, just know that when you log off for the last time… the legacy you leave behind won’t be one of power, but of cowardice.

Your move.
