"This Swedish 6th grader invented this devices on the playground during recess and it has the billion dollar nuclear power industry running scared." Roll Eyes No. Big Grin

"These will likely be banned in the near future because people feel civilians shouldn't wave access to military grade equipment like this." It's a fucking garden hose nozzle! Eek


They're fascinating in a way because the voice over narration is complete nonsense. None of the things they say are true. And the video, they show you six different things that AREN'T what they're trying to sell you, and even if you watch it all the way to the end, you're still not exactly sure what/which item they're trying to sell you.

I watch them going... "No. No. No." waiting to be able to click "skip". lol

They're costing me a lot of money sending $5 to Trump each time. Wink


The recent Democratic primary here was insane. For a month or more EVERY SINGLE commercial break had at least one commercial for one candidate or the other and usually you couldn't skip them. The only way I could try to deal with it was knowing how much money they were spending, and knowing they're wasting them on me.

About that same time, a commercial for a store coming to a mall (that's not terribly local) has taken it's place with torturous regularity. And yet, despite being forced to see it hundreds and hundreds of times, I couldn't tell you what store or what mall.

But was it taking the world by storm? Wink

Whenever I hear that affected British accent I automatically locate the skip button.

Do they think they're really fooling anyone with those fake influencer reviews?

Well, they must be fooling somebody or you would think they'd take them down. I guess P.T. Barnum was right.

I use the app on iOS (ipad) for 90% of YT. Probably 10% viewing on the ATV. On the ATV, there are more ads than on the app on the ipad. Double. It’s funny, that shit comes on, and I can’t skip it yet, I just mute the AVR. They can try all they want, it won’t work. Then on the ipad I use every available opportunity to block. A lot of videos you can click twice and block the shit permanently.

If their got damn “premium” shit wasn’t so expensive I’d just pay them. But I’m not paying $13 a month or whatever as I have enough streaming bullshit already.

Goddamned if that ain’t the case.

“$5 is enough to make a difference in this election….”

I’ve now given $4,935 to Donald Trump and I can’t afford to give more!

And it looks like they’re using AI voice of Joe Rogan and another generic voice that they carefully chose. I wonder if Joe Rogan gets compensation. I doubt it or else impressionists would be paying royalties.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

the worst is Kamala the Kamel begging for donations at the start of every firearms video I've watched this week.

BTW I call her the Kamel because she humped everything in sight to insure her rise to the top of the dung heap that is Washington.


I've stopped counting.

The latest one irking me is.... "Amazon hates this..." Yes Amazon , who's making 50 billion dollars a minute, hates that you're selling an over sized cigarette lighter on Youtube. Beszos can't sleep at night thinking about all your customers melting beer cans. Big Grin

This is the one I see. I can't understand why Amazon hates it because they probably sell it and a dozen similar ones on Amazon.
