Of all the worst things out there, youtube comments rank right up there

Granted theres a chance to voice adulation and confirmation of something which is more niche, ie a song by the band Swans (nobody's heard of them- yay! cosmic connection to someone else out there!)

But, if someone goes onto a video which is more general - ie a kanye west video, comments quickly degenerate, and you wonder why you went there in the first place

My personal preference is I have added the chrome extension herp derp, which makes everything said under a video become two words herp and derp, while it has taken away the great comments - eg: kanye west's 'addiction' song is related to Breaking Bad through the thematics engaged through Walt Whitman, it has taken out all those disgusting posts talking about holocaust, spam and everything else normal people wouldnt say IRL!

Anyway... herp derp away herp derpers!

wut.

Youtube are the worst comments on the internet, closely followed by FB.

Its what happens when you give the uneducated plebs and the lowest common denominator a voice.

You mean like Twitter? :lol:

The internet commonly descends into racist, sexist bigotry.

I also find Godwin's law to be quite true.

How would you know? #haterzgonh8

I generally find that if you can't defend your message by either relying on, or crying foul of, racism, sexism or Nazism, your message wasn't worth hearing in the first place. Comments are a good indicator of this.

At least with Twitter you choose who you want to read. So all the dregs are lost in the ether because I don't follow them :lol:
Its all intellectual conversation :lol:

I can't help but notice the massive dose of irony considering this was posted by one of the biggest waste of space posters on this forum :lol:

herp derp herp derp herp derp

Only Dr Colin can save this thread.

The formula for comments decending into shit.
The more popular something is the more trolls it attracts, which usually descends into shit.
The more divisive something is the more arguments erupt, and as Notor pointed out. Those who cant defend there POV usually descend into shit.

Dey terk eur jerbs.

Those that argue with fools run the risk of those watching not being able to tell the difference.

This.

Dr Colin is not a waste of space.

I wish the web app would have a way to filter out tweets containing certain key words, there are some people I follow that 90% of what they tweet is interesting but they have a "holier than thou" attitude about a particular topic that I can't stand :)

No man with a PHD in love is a waste of space.

Thank you for your kind words.

Unfortunately Dr Colin only specialises in all things romance and relationships.

The boom in social media websites and forums have seen the increasing amount of time mankind spends in front of their computers and phones, when that time could be better spent in front of their partner in a compromising position.

In this instance, I am unable to provide a diagnosis on a grand scale and ask that anyone who may be in need of some personal advice, to please head over to the Friendzone post in the Extra Time section and ask me a question.

Your in love

Dr Colin

That is genuinely the most annoying thing on the internet, including porn viruses.

You've clearly never been part of a Twitch chat.

How does he have 8 millions subs when there are only 7 million people in the world?

Is the above meant to be funny?
