That's a pretty narrow understanding of what Youtube is... sounds pretty grouchy too... you better watch out, it's already spreading into your posts, next you'll be yelling at us all to get off your lawn..

In reality, there are a wide variety of content creators on YouTube, at this point it could be considered an alternative to television in many ways. You can find a wide variety of content presented by the different YouTubers, including news, various shows (though certainly with lesser budgets and length than on television), commentary and reviews on movies, videogames, and music, educational videos, humor, and many other things besides. Many channels don't really engage in the drama that Idubbbz and others do (though I do find it entertaining), and produce pretty high quality content (JonTron is a decent example, a lot of work and editing goes into his humorous reviews of movies and games).

I mean, really, there is even more drama on TV with manure like TMZ and "reality" shows, I think YouTube is doing relatively well comparatively...

What's this pesky bird doing on my lawn??? Shoo!

Kidding. I guess I do watch some you tube shows, mainly about board games: how to plays and reviews, as me and my mate are pretty big into gaming, especially Euro games. So I admit to watching Tom Vassel and the Dice Tower Review Guys, and there's a few other folks I follow.

And I sometimes watch videos that people have made of various animals, like people being sprayed by skunks, and foxes on trampolines. Oh, and clips of The Funday Pawpet Show, and some furry stuff. 

So I'm not that bad :V

I've never understood why people get into watching 'youtubers'. I use it to find music, old cartoons, nature documentaries, poets and authors reading their works who are dead, old ads and nostalgic stuff, but I've never wanted to hear some dweeby teen prattle on about politics, video games and pimple cream, whilst engaging in a barrage of insults.

Call me an old grouch---maybe I'm just a mean old bastard who demand too much from life. I doubt it, but from time to time, I worry I might be headed that way.

I used to pay attention to my subscription feed when Youtube didn't fuck it up, which was a very long time ago. I was mostly subscribed to Youtube Poop creators. But yeah, now I don't even bother logging in unless a video is marked as mature. It's more fun to search for random videos or go through a deep web of videos by seeing what's in the related/recommended section of random stuff people link. Clickbait videos are annoying though.

Sadly TMZ is one of the more tolerable entertainment news shows. Watch crap like Entertainment Tonight or Access Hollywood and you'll see what I mean. Those shows are so much up celebrity's asses while putting on an obviously fake television persona that it's truly sickening.

The Emmy Awards, the Academy Awards, the Grammy Awards, and the Tony Awards have nearly always been used to speak on political issues.

It would be odd if any of these went by apolitically.

I don't even watch any of these shows usually.

Seemed appropriate.

"I was raped by Mr. Mistoffelees."
This is how I'm going to tell people how I became a furry.

The whole iDubbbz and Leafy shite hasn't changed a thing. Leafy's subscriber count went down by a few thousands, but it'll go back to normal soon. And iDubbbz is raking in that ad revenue and 100k+ subscribers.

http://socialblade.com/youtube/user/idubbbztv

https://socialblade.com/youtube/user/leafyishere

Nothing changed. All that happened was iDubbbz got a bunch of subscribers.

Hmm. Leafy's subscribers seem to have dropped by about 40% in the last month so something is happening at least.

Honestly I don't pay attention to most youtube celebs so I have no idea who these immature little children are and don't care.

So apparently someone at my school found me using these forums and discovered I was a furry.

I didn't know they saw until they texted me this

I think I'm fucked if everyone finds out since they all hate furries.

... Are you sure they're not a furry, too? Cuz, that seems like pretty heavily sarcastic.

Don't over-think it and don't fight too hard. They're like a Chinese finger-trap. If they know that them bringing it up bugs you, they'll do it more.

Ok I'll just throw it off and pretend like nothing happened.

I'm fucking panicking inside. My good reputation might be thrown out the window completely tomorrow. I guess I'll have to wait and see what happens.

 Thats the problem, he's very unpredictable and so are his intentions.

He says more things in person than on texts.

That's why it's scary.

Unlike most people I meet, I can't figure him out.

tell him that I, some random faggot on the internet, think he's a nerd.

this will surely show him.

 

In all seriousness, aren't you in high school or something? Ignore it. Who the fuck cares? Don't give him more enjoyment out of this. Just drop it and live on. It won't stick forever, especially if you don't act like it's a huge deal. No one likes a drama story with no drama after all.

@Carenath fix your site, it's acting like shit.

I have no idea what happened.  The only thing I know for sure is that the forums stayed up for me.

I can only guess Cloudflare doing its let's-make-regions-go-down thing again.

The former. I could never wrap my head around people who attack and abuse the homeless. What's worse is that the police probably won't do much about it.


Speaking for the United States, it is likely that not much would have happened. Unless an officer is actually witness to it you'll need the victim to press charges (which the homeless are unlikely to do, even when asked.) Additionally a random guy on the street is difficult to identify, even with video.

Can't view because of the UK's porn filter. :\

Ack. Your filters are absurd and excessive. This is art, not porn, and there isn't any penis anyway.

Thanks.

The filters are also completely ineffective. If I google 'shitty anal fisting' I'm still going to find a whole bunch of incredibly graphic pornography.

All the filters do is prevent me from using websites like Tumblr or Urban dictionary, because those are classified as 'porn sites'. :\

I picked up US dollars today. Got my grubby paws on your currency.

I have this feeling that a lot of new members that join but never talk are just lurkers who want to also lurk the black hole and porn threads

They can't lurk the porn threads without having a minimum of 69 posts and staff approval.
