If I were a man prone to profanity, I could really rip off a tirade about how half the videos you link to don’t let you watch them embedded anymore. Am I actually expected to click on the youtube link and open a whole other browser window like a dog?! Is my time not valuable? I mean, I have things to do. Important things. I can’t be bothered. And that means I miss out on the punchlines of half the shitposts I’ve seen tonight.

What is this world coming to!?!

GGGGGGAAAAAHHH THIIIIIIS

I love that F1 is finally putting content on the YouTubes. I hate that it’s all “click over to YouTube dot com, off this page, to watch it.” GRR.

I hate it on a much more base level, because it means people won’t listen to the music in my shit posts.

As a Canadian, half the stuff is behind a content wall anyway.

Yanno what’s worse than that, at least in my book?

Fukkin’ autoplay vids on fb. Particularly those with ads every 20 seconds. If you’re gonna waste my bandwidth by starting shit I ain’t wanna see, you better make that shit ad-free

This bugs me so much. Why the restriction? They still get a “view”, don’t they? And why do I sometimes see a restriction from using full-screen mode? I don’t get it.

Amen. I don’t even FB. And you’ve just given me one more reason to be glad.

I think we are all just part of a huge behavioral experimental study set up by the species that built the internet for the purpose with Al Gore as a front.

Sometimes I think Douglas Adams was more of a prophet than people realize.

Haha, could be.

I dunno, I’ve been trying to wrap my brain around it, and the only thing that I can come up with is that maybe they want the YouTube page open so that we’ll be more likely to like, comment, or subscribe.

Must be. But the day I consider becoming one of the mouth breathers that comment on YouTube, I hope that someone I love will put a bullet in my head before I destroy my dignity.
