YouTube Is Evil, Maybe
For a while now I’ve had a love/hate relationship with a little phenomenon called YouTube. On one side I can find any video I want in a matter of seconds. On the other side YouTube is ruining the future of the planet.
I do believe YouTube has some good inside of it. Some of these good things include instructional videos, presidential debates, news stories and other informative pieces. The only problem is, do we really watch that stuff? I know when I spend hours upon hours on YouTube I usually go from one video to another through the handy dandy recommendation box to the right of the video. It usually starts off innocent enough, but then takes a turn for the worse somewhere along the line. I’ll give you an example of the average progression of the YouTube recommended videos:
How to Use Social Bookmarking
to
How To Social Network Online
to
Social Workers Making A Difference
to
A Guy Shaves His Balls at a Social Gathering
What kind of horrible progression is that? Another problem I have with YouTube is when I type in something like “He Is Legend playing live” because I want to see my favorite metal band in action. The first thing that comes up is some faggot 14 year old playing a horrible acoustic version to one of my favorite songs in his attic. That brings me to my next point. People can put anything on there!
A lot of people say that the fact that you can put anything on YouTube is a good thing. I beg to differ. I have come to realize in my journeys that people, as a whole, have horrible taste in everything. So you have to wade through tons of videos from people who are “really getting there art out there, man.” To bad their art consists of a 16 year old whore dancing half naked on her webcam in her parents basement to horrible reggae music. Do you people realize that there are videos out there where girls get completely naked and do a whole lot more than dance?
Even after that hate inspired rant, I can’t stay mad at you YouTube. You may be ruining the world, but goddamn it, you’re making me too entertained by peoples stupidity to care.
I swear I found this video after I wrote the line above. I wonder how badly her parents wish they would have had an abortion now…

I used to really like YouTube when I worked third shift. I’d kill at least two hours every night watching YouTube clips. But now that I’m back on the daytime hours, I tend to stay away from it.
