nah, it’ll be pretty run of the mill. how are you? i hope well. actually i’ve probably never met you, so i guess i wouldn’t be bothered one way or the other.  have you heard of youtube? it’s a newfangled technology wherein you post videos that no one will ever watch. the only thing i use youtube for anymore is to listen to songs i’m too embarrassed to buy or download (ie: mandy moore: cry. listened to well over four times today. actually i just realized that that is the sort of thing that one should not admit).

but really, youtube likes to promote themselves as being sort of “internet tv”, a place where kids can make videos (or “vlogs”) and expect that to be watchable. but NO ONE has ever truly enjoyed a vlog. i have this theory that there has never been a good vlog. its such a disgusting nerdy name too. vlog? i want nothing to do with that.

so basically the only thing youtube is good for is music videos, the occasional SNL clip that is quickly pulled, or videos of monkeys drinking their own pee. And yes, if you click on that link, you will see a video of just that.

now, occasionally you might see an amusing comedy sketch or montage, but guess what? say goodbye to those

yep, youtube is muting all videos that contain copyright materials. i call this a bad move. you know what is going to be left on youtube if they do this? VLOGS. NOTHING BUT VLOGS, WITHOUT EVEN MUSIC TO COVER THESE KIDS’ SHRILL, NASALLY VOICES. now of course it was probably bound to happen. youtube was really cool for a while. i would watch full episodes of tv shows and as many avril lavigne lip-sync videos as i wanted. but all good internet sites come to an end. they get scared of being sued and eliminate whatever it was that made them great. i’ve been worrying about youtube for a while, but if this becomes really widespread, it’ll be time to let it go. there are only so many ‘man gets kicked in balls’ videos to go around, and then i might just want to listen to rihanna again.

why do all the sites i love get wrecked? i have now shifted my nervousness to facebook. i only got into the whole social networking thing last year but it runs my life now. it has saved me from many hours of boredom, cycling through pictures of people i hardly know. the minutae of people’s everyday life i now find captivating. “eric is getting ready for work.” YOU DON’T SAY!! KEEP ME UPDATED.

but back to our recent loss, youtube. perhaps it will not be so bad. we won’t have to deal with singers covering annoying pop hits (whenever i watch videos like that i wish simon cowell was my friend so we could make fun of people together, and maybe go bowling). also, when youtube is gone, we won’t have to deal with youtube comments, a place wherein brains go to die (from that same vid):

oo0o0o0okaaaaaaaaay….i agree…u are pretty..ur hair looks nice…but your voice is ugly…sorry & im not a hater …but this song isnt 4 u at all…i cant even believe you’ved posted this…ur voice is NICE yes but i dnt tink it goes with this song..i also agree with the other peron sayn sing a slower song…indeed…try singing a different song or dnt sing atal..& i REPEAT…I AM NOT A HAtER…im jus helping u out & just telln u not 2 embarass ur self singin songs that u cnt…=)

seriously. the internet has been out for a long time now. you are not texting. you have a keyboard. FILL IN THE MISSING LETTERS. WHY ARE YOU IN SUCH A RUSH. I WILL BEAT YOU UP.

look at me, i’m getting all rattled. let’s just say goodbye to youtube while we can. in a few months it’s going to be a wasteland of vlogging and twelve year old boys reviewing blockbuster movies. “i thought heath ledger was sooooo good teh best joker ever y was dark knight not nominated ofr best picture?!?” WHO CARES GO HAVE A LIFE YOU’RE TWELVE YEARS OLD PLAY OUtSIDE KISS GIRLS RING DOORBELLS AND RUN STOP READING IMDB HERE IS A BASKETBALL

ok im done

have a great time with your life
