    people on youtube?

    man, i was watching youtube last night, i haven't in a while.

    some of the comments people post and some of the videos people post are just ridiculous. it makes me feel like we live in a world full of haters and animals.

    for an example, search for the video 'gullible is not in the dictionary'

    what do you guys think?

    I don't even want to see it if it's full of the lowest form of human nastiness (that would be the anonymous kind).

    The internet really brings out the worst in some people, but then, some people are hella nasty in person, too. You should see my mother in line at the grocery store. What a witch.

    I love youtube. I don't bother reading the comments.
    Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

    It gives a skewed representation of the world... bias towards morons and people who make videos of things just for the sake of shock value.

    The other things that really annoys me about YouTube is that most posts are either barely readable or reflect such ignorance in the author that it really makes you wonder at the sheer stupidity of what often seems like the vast majority….

    It really brings a tear to your eye…

    But YouTube can be used for good as well as stupidity and evil. It can facilitate the spread of knowledge and wisdom, as well as exchange of witty comments and satirical views of our crazy bureaucratic world and the ignorant hate filled people who live within it.

    that whole cnn/youtube debate thing just goes to show how influential youtube has been. (whether for the better or the worse, i'm not sure)

    seems like youtube is a lot of people's 15 minutes to fame.

    haha, I saw the response too. I see her point, but she's just so mean and patronising about it.
