Online videos

YouTube: fun! But really hit & miss unless you are looking for something specific. The viewer ratings are really valuable. Could spend a lot of time here. Or, could spend a lot of time outside, doing something fun of my own! There's definitely a cultural shift that's gone on, and to ignore YouTube is to ignore that aspect of pop culture. Sort of like shrugging off TV. You can, and you can be perfectly happy(ier) doing so, but you'll also miss out on a lot of the common humor and references of the time. That can have greater implications that it would initially appear. As what felt like one of only about three teenagers in the universe that didn't have access to MTV, I think I'll make up for a little of that lost cultural reference on YouTube.
