McNutt created a YouTube channel named "InhidiSpurds" on September 13, 2009. He would upload rants, vlogs and commentary videos. His last video on the channel would be uploaded on July 19, 2012, titled "eharmony Magic video", being a parody of the eHarmony cat lady video.
==Suicide==
On August 31, 2020, at 7:32PM, McNutt posted an image on Facebook stating "Someone in your life needs to hear that they matter. That they are loved. That they have a future. Be the one to tell them". At 9:00PM, he began live streaming on Facebook Live. He had been drinking before he started the livestream. About 40 minutes into the stream, he picked up a single-shot rifle and misfired it. His family and friends who were watching the stream panicked and began trying to contact him through phone calls, but he declined the calls. The police were notified, but did not intervene during the stream. According to McNutt's friend, Joshua Steen, he attempted multiple times to report the stream and get Facebook to remove it, but Facebook refused, claiming it did not violate any of the platform's guidelines. Around 10:30 PM, McNutt's ex-girlfriend called him during the stream, which McNutt answered. After talking for a while, McNutt's ex hung up the phone. McNutt then said to the people watching the stream "Hey guys, I guess that's it", placed the rifle under his chin, and pulled the trigger, ending his life.https://gunmemorial.org/2020/08/31/ronald-ronnie-merle-mcnutt Over 200 people were watching the stream when he killed himself. The police eventually entered the home, and then the stream ended.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKh5NL9vsdAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJ5zEMFnvh8
===Aftermath===
Shortly after McNutt's suicide, the video of him killing himself was shared across many social media sites, including TikTok, Instagram and Twitter. The livestream was up on Facebook for eight hours before being deleted. The video spreading on TikTok was particularly controversial, due to many people on the app being children, who were traumatized after seeing the video. After social media sites began to become aware about the video spreading, they began removing it.
To this day, trolls online often make fun of and make memes about his death.
McNutt was buried in the same cemetery where his father, who passed away on February 27, 2018, was buried.
