I found a decent song on Youtube I was looking for. I listened to it for a few minutes, then looked down at the comments. I was shocked at how stupid the commenter was.

The song name was the TITLE of the video. The only image in the video was the song name. The description was the song name. And there was 2 comments.

#1. "wuts this song calld?"
#2. "ya i rly want 2 know"

...Just ONE person that inept is just plain disgusting, but TWO? That's... Pretty sad, if you ask me.

Now, I wouldn't be surprised if these people were 7 or 8 years old. But out of curiosity, I looked at one of their profiles. Age: 37. Featured video: Himself, proving his age. Even if he was new to the internet, I really don't think anybody would be ignorant enough to even click on the song and listen to it the whole way through, without even looking at the title, video or description.

Discuss. (And keep member names out of this, cause any topic discussing intelligence is bound to get a few flames)

I've seen dozens of comments like that, and it is ridiculous. People need to 1: Learn to spell (or at least if you ask questions like that) and 2: Get some smarts.

Things like that will make me go insane one of these days.

That's just stupid. It doesn't take much effort to look at a title or read a 2-sentance long summary. It also doesn't take much effort to press the shift button, or complete a sentance using some decent literacy.

People just keep getting lazier these days. Or maybe they're just ignorant. I don't know what it is; but it's hard to find literate, sane, and attentive people on the internet.

I'm okay with people who aren't great spellers, or don't always use capitals and puncuation...but when all they use is chatspeak, they spam, or inept like THAT...I get pissed.

...

Thank you for reading my Magical Wall of Text.

I saw a video on YouTube of a guy using a talkbox (a special effects device which changes your voice to match the frequencies of an instrument). You could see the tube in his mouth as he was using it, and here were some of the comments:

#1- did you use an instrument to do that
#2- no he used his voice good impersonation

-_-'...Normal society is doing a collective facepalm.

The Youtube community is hell on the internet. Just don't read the comments, and you'll be fine.

Ugh, I hate it when people this age type so badly. I mean, I can understand bad typing, but NOT the least amount of letters possible. What's so hard about typing a 3 sentence message correctly?

    Jesus CHRIST. Why bother sending me ANYTHING?

  • im shure you have plenty of emails cause of your awsome guide and it would be nice if you took time to anser.

    Learn to spell. That is all.

  • and send me your in game name

    and its already in the guide


So, there you have it. I'll be replying to him out of pity now.
