Explosive Commentary Video

YouTube 'Comment Fight!' Clip Chastises Frivolous Word Fights

— January 28, 2009 — Pop Culture
Let’s Get Ready To Rumble! This video showcases the madness that is YouTube commenting. It is amazing how people can get into a heated “discussion” over what a gopher coming out of hole symbolizes. For one, it’s just that there will be six more months of winter. To another, it means the deprived common people must cower at the bureaucracy that is government (HUH?!)

Either way, this is a great video to watch whenever you are tempted to blow a comment or post out of proportion. Before you take it out on your keyboard, just step away from the laptop, take five deep breaths, and ask yourself: Do you really want to get in a war of words with someone you’ve never met over whether or not Britney’s boobs are real or fake? (They do seem to get bigger with each video. I’m just saying.)
