Yo this Youtube deal is totally like played out and square let's go hang somewhere the posers and narcs haven't totally ruined.


I can't believe I actually made the thumbnail for this video. The hilarious part being that even though I'm slowly getting better at photo editing this is the most time I've put into making a thumbnail. Although sometimes it takes me longer to decide when I'm just using art.


If you want my opinion, look at Dunkey. Normal thumbnails, usually just official art. Some of the funniest, most insightful, most unique videos on the platform. Dunkey I love you never change.


I think one of the things I didn't really touch on is that the success of clickbait is fine in it's own little ecosystem but because Youtube is one website the use of cheap marketing tactics to draw a mainstream audience seems to leak out just a little bit into the entire platform. Even the Youtube Creator videos use these style of thumbnails.


This video was inspired by my friend who never watches Youtube but told me a very interesting story about how a very famous Youtuber spent hundreds of thousands on Pokemon cards and it made me sick that that type of obnoxious behaviour appeals to people. I still haven't watched the video but I can picture the thumbnail so clearly.


So anyways I got totally back into it there but yeah. If you're watching this, maybe you consider yourself a fan. Maybe you just like what I have to say or you're just passing by. I hope you enjoy my videos and continue to enjoy my videos and I want you to know that I truly value your views and likes and comments and I'm eternally grateful for you.


If you're reading this, have a great day!



Lots of Love,
