Youtube Rant

I like youtube personally. Its original conception was a brilliant idea: enabling people to post various videos online for the public to view.

However, the entirety, in my opinion, has become so bastardized that I have become to hate it with much disdain.

Ill complain in order.

1. AMV's
Perhaps the single thing I hate the most about YT nowadays. You look for a specific anime clip, or a specific song, and you usually have to sift through page after page of some stupid slapped together AMV that a 9 year old made in their parents basement.
What makes it worse is that usually you find the same themes of anime: Naruto, Onepiece, Bleach, Fruits basket, or FMA. (I actually enjoy the last two animes at least)

2. Youtube Poop
Retarded. Nobody wants to watch this. Ever. I cant believe someone actually went through enough time to cut and paste various videos together and create something like this. I think you can all agree.

3. Reaction videos
Chances are, we all want to see the original video, not other peoples reactions to them. I dont want to see some group of adolescent girls squeeling over a 2girls1cup video. Stupid.

4. Personal Videos
Like people trying to be the nostalgia critic. Sometimes I dont like the critic myself (most of the time i think hes hilarious) but ever since he decided to accept a few of the (most likely) thousands of offers to show their own videos, the site kinda went downhill for me.

4.5. Personal Videos
Bad camcorders, cellphones, ect. Horrible recordings of something they found "Hilarious" at the time, seems 90% of the time, retarded to the general populous. Fights, personal stunts, family things, dogs. ect.

5. The fact that most songs seem to have been fixed with a video recording of WoW characters dancing.

6. and finally the comments
im guessing 15% of all YT comments have anything to do with the actual video, the rest are people spamming, arguing about something christian or political, ect. Everyone wants to get in an arguement for some reason. Id prefer the whole "If you dont have something nice or relevant to say (or even CONSTRUCTIVE criticism) just shut the hell up."

Ooh, fun time to throw in my numerous pennies. Hurr..

1. AMVs - YT is oversaturated with them. AGREED.

2. Youtube Poop - About 85% of them are just stupid and random, but there are a couple that I personally find hilarious. I guess it's just a love/hate kind of thing. Then again I do have DA BRAIN PROBLEEMS~ *Knocks on skull*

3. Reaction videos - When you start sifting through the reaction videos rather than finding the actual video itself, then you know it's gone too far. In this case...yeah most of the time it's too far.

4. Personal Videos - YOU JUST BASHED L, ROFLMAO
4.5 Other personal videos - Inside jokes don't need to be broadcast to the entire planet.

5. WoW music videos? - I've never seen any of these...I think

6. Comments - It's true that a vast minority of comments are actually related to the video in question, but there are others that are related to the video and are hilarious. Depends on the situation.
"Listen well! I'll stand on top of all living things! I am now a new creature that cuts open the future!"
"Weakling, Weakling!"
"It's useless useless USELESS!"
"WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!"
