Posted October 22, 2007 Doesn't it just make you laugh at the comments people leave? It isn't just youtube it's places like ebaumsworld and almost anywhere where you are allowed to comment. I mean I posted a comment about a video on youtube part seriously asking part joking, if anybody else thought phil collins in that video looked like frasier crane because he had a receding hairline. I got a lovely response saying "you fail in life". It just made me laugh because it was so pathetic but the amount of comments you get saying stuff like "go kill yourself" (especially when supposed emos post you get people saying that) it's just like "How pathetic can you get?" Some of the time it makes me chuckle but other times it makes me wonder if some people actually get affected by people posting those kind of comments. What do you guys reckon, do people actually get affected or not? obviously some may others may not but what do you think? And how should those kind of comments be dealt with?

Posted October 22, 2007 I find it funny when American teenagers call you a 'douche bag.' That has got to be the worst insult ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 22, 2007 Lol well here you go just so we all know where the term douche bag came from, lol it isn't really that insulting reading its meaning. "A douche bag is a piece of equipment for douching: a bag for holding the water or fluid used in douching" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douche_bag Just makes me laugh when you get called that, so many of these comments back fire, and just make the commenter look stupid.

Posted October 22, 2007 That's why freedom is actually restricted everywhere but the Internet; If you've got any brains yourself and have worked in a shop, you'd realise how many morons exist too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 22, 2007 Youtube has to be the biggest community on the internet right? No wonder it's full of so many *****. It's open to everyone and there's no moderation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 22, 2007 The chain letters are hilarious. I love the ones that say "Youtube chain letters are ruining the internet. Only utter morons would continue them, if you agree, post this in five more videos" - and people do! rofls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 22, 2007 I find it funny when American teenagers call you a 'douche bag.' That has got to be the worst insult ever. A lot of it is full of anti americanism wierdly enough also as well as quite hard left wing politics eg straight atheism and anti authority views also it houses racism and extreme sexism, sexism is probably the most consistantly bad thing on there. But sometimes the comments can be loltastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 22, 2007 Hmm, comments you say? I partake in some of this: I don't check the comments. I watch the video at the top, close window. Shabba. Er, "shabba." Yeah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 22, 2007 8/10 i just watch the video and then go back and see what else there is to watch. The rest of the time, i may read the comments for a laugh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 22, 2007 Chain letters are generally funny, like this: POR FAVOR PUESTO LEYO ESTO. USTED SERA BESADO EN EL MAS CERCANO el viernes POSIBLE POR EL AMOR DE SU VIDA. El MAÑANA SERA EL MEJOR DIA DE SU VIDA. MANDE ESTO SOBRE A 5 VIDEOS EN 143 MINUTOS CUANDO UR la PRENSA F6 HECHA Y UR APLASTAN el NOMBRE APARECERA EN LA PANTALLA EN CARTAS GRANDES. Comments by kids trying to offend someone like, "omg, ur so ridiculus and fat, die." are entertaining to. People just bitching around its also funny, I usually post just to make it a bit worse. But not all posts are useless, I have countless times been enlightened about the clip after reading some posts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 22, 2007 I can't stand the YouTube comments, especially those who post on Guitar Hero videos and say stuff like: "lol why dont u just lern to ply a real guitar you retard roflmao" I try to avoid the comments, but I can't resist looking to see utter pillocks make a fool out of themselves, then get ripped by other users.

Posted October 23, 2007 What i find so funny about youtube and other similar sites is that it is such a huge contrast to places like deviantart. youtube comments seem to always be negative, i've yet to see a negative comment on deviantart! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
