Thinknoodles

Justin Andrew Watkins (born: ), better known online as Thinknoodles (or simply Think, formerly known as Insiders Network), is a American gamer on YouTube and formerly on Twitch. He is mainly known for playing Minecraft (IGN: RealThinknoodles), ROBLOX (IGN: ImNotThinknoodles), Club Penguin, Pokémon, Poptropica (Username: Thinknoodles), and Webkinz (Username: Rleong) which he no longer does.
He has played many other games on this channel as well, such as Splatoon (IGN: Thinknoodl), Clash of Clans, My singing Monsters, Baldi's Basics, House Flipper, Thief Simulator, Granny, Sims 4, Powerwash Simulator, Super Mario Maker (IGN:Thinknoodl). He has another channel called Thinknoodles Best.
==Insiders Network==
Think's original channel name was, and technically still is, Insiders Network.
Before the Insiders Network channel was made, he was running a bunch of insiders all with their own channel. It was getting a bit overwhelming so he announced that he was combining all of his Insiders into one YouTube channel.
At first his videos were Club Penguin cheats, Webkinz adoptions and Poptropica Walkthroughs. His channel slowly evolved from a channel for insiders to a channel about himself. He therefore decided to change the name to "Thinknoodles".

* (Roblox Piggy FAKE APPS STOLE MY VIDEOS!!) "Successful! Did I just win? [Laughs] Home, replay, what? Oh, my goodness... WHY ARE THERE SO MANY TIKTOK ADS?!”
* (MY BIGGEST MISTAKE ON YOUTUBE..) “Seven years ago on December 13, 2015… I made one of the biggest mistakes of my YouTube career. I ended my Clash of Clans series… Hey, everyone! It’s your friend, Thinknoodles! And… welcome back to Clash of Clans… for the last time… Now, while it may look like a successful video with 390,000 views, and 9,400 likes. It even has 5,000 comments, and they’re nearly all negative as you can see here! 9,400 likes and 15,000 dislikes! Oops.”

==Think's YouTube Friends==
Think used to play with a lot of people on an SMP server called the CubeSMP (though never actually played on it himself), but once he broke up with his best friend Graser, things started to get messy. Graser and Think used to play together all the time: Club Penguin, Poptropica, Minecraft maps, you name it. Rumors circulated that Graser had used or lied to Think, although this is not confirmed. Graser had some other ideas for his channel, but for Think, it ended up turning into "something he never wanted" as he said at the start of Ask Think #84 regarding his separation towards the community. Think left after that, and never addressed it further.
Now, he's friends with people who are more family friendly, such as DanTDM, ThnxCya, Sqaishey Quack, Stampylonghead, JackSucksAtLife, etc.
==Think's Personality==
Think has a friendly personality to everyone he meets, he is also kid-friendly and likes to joke. He also has a nice touch of creativity, shown in his "Think's Lab" Mod Showcase series.
"He's by far the nicest guy you'd ever meet!" - StrauberryJam
==Controversy==
===9/11 Tweet===
On August 15, 2020, Think posted a tweet about the 9/11 memorial's shape on Twitter.
"Just realized that the 9/11 memorial reflecting pools are literally the Roblox logo."
This angered a lot of people, including his fans, because the people thought he was joking about it, and criticized Think for the tweet. Youtuber Nattie Forsyth made a video on Think's tweet, and agreed with Think about the tweet, saying how it's a fact. Nattie Forsyth was not the only person who defended Think. Some people also agreed with Think, one even stating: "Checking on Google earth, he's right!" Youtuber denk0 criticized Think for the tweet, as well as mathep. Think explained multiple times that there was no joking concept in the tweet. 
The tweet's hate died down a few days later, and Think went back to his daily gameplay videos.
=== Plagiarism Claims ===
Thinknoodles was found in controversy twice because of his thumbnail editor, Nominuus. Nominuus copied parts from other content creator's thumbnails such as ManlyBadassHero's, twice, Think was called out on it on twitter but stated his Thumbnail how his Thumbnail editor was the one in the wrong and he would ask Nominuus to create a new thumbnail, the second time Nominuus copied thumbnails was from Dirtboy who copied their thumbnail from Flamingo, eventually he spoke to Nominuus, Think was enraged because Nominuus kept lying and this was his second offense which ended up with Nominuus getting fired and Thinknoodles stating a public announcement about working with Nominuus,

==Intro, Outro, and Background Songs==
* As of 2016, Thinknoodles' intro was Safe and Sound, by Nitro Fun.
* His outro is the same song. As of 2023, he no longer has an outro.
==Trivia==
*He has a sister, as stated in an Ask Think video.
*His first dog he ever owned was named Missy, but his parents gave her away, telling Justin that she ran away, until he was told the truth a few years ago.
* He was on the last American Airlines flight from Boston to California on September 10, 2001, almost being on one of the doomed flights that hit the World Trade Center the next day. He has said that when he looks at his boarding pass from that flight, it gives him the chills.
*He's allergic to cats.
*He is left-handed.
*He was a founding member of the Shady Oaks SMP along with DanTDM, IBallisticSquid and ThnxCya, which started in January 2021. He departed from the series in April the same year.
*He had a golden retriever named Kopi named after the Indonesian/Malaysian word for coffee. Kopi was born on November 5, 2006, and died on December 9, 2020. She was 14 years, 1 month, and 4 days old when she died.
*He uses the Animoji feature on his iPhone for his videos instead of an actual webcam.
**He has rarely used a webcam in his videos, such as this video
*He has played Piggy with Lil Nas X, who was also hosting a virtual concert on Roblox to promote his newest single, Holiday.
*Think has Arachnaphobia.
*He and Infinite had cameoed as characters in Euphoric Brothers' game, Garten of Banban IV.
*Many old fans of ThinkNoodles are upset because he (a guy in his late 40s) is doing childish stuff like watching Skibidi Toilet, playing Garten of BanBan and much more.
*It is controversial that he said he was addicted to watching Skibidi Toilet, because he is likely too old to have such a curiosity of the world to be addicted to something like a series of short semi-juvenile videos on YouTube. He is likely only in it for the money.
*When he voiced the minions in his Minecraft modded videos in Think's lab, he used a pitch changer to change his voice to make it seem like he was a minion talking.
