How to Make a Total Ass of Yourself on YouTube

After spending a great deal of time reading the viewer comments on YouTube videos, I've studied the best tecniques for making an ass of oneself. Just for fun, I just might have to put my education to use and see how many nasty replies I can inspire. Ok, maybe not. Anyway, here are some basic pointers should you decide it's a worthwhile pursuit:

1. Search for bands and artists you truly despise, then leave rude comments. A good example: These guys suck worse than a Hoover WindTunnel!. You're guaranteed to spend the better part of week reading hate replies. You may even learn a few new creative expectives from true fans.

2. Type as often as possible the words: "This is Gay!" From my experience this is the most popular phrase to be found on YouTube. This is the most reliable way to become a monumental ass in record time.

3. Type in all caps. For instince: "THIS IS GAY! GET OFF YOUTUBE!"

3. If you get into a flame war with someone, always point out there spelling errors and typos. This will make you appear more
intelligent even when you say things like, "THIS IS GAY!"

4. Not only is it a good idea to proclaim videos "gay",it's also recommended to call the poster and any antagonists you encounter, "gay". There is no bigger "ass" than a bigotted one.

6. Leave nasty messages on the poster's personal channel. If you've learned any cool new expletives through your adventures, now is an excellent time to put them into use.

7. Make double, perhaps even triple posts. This will ensure your "assiness" is noticed by all.

Who knows, maybe they'll start running a contest for Biggest Ass on YouTube in the future. If you master the above tecniques, you are sure to be in the running for the top prize. Happy YouTubing!

Comments

The comments are pretty juvenile, I agree. I'm fascinated -- and often saddened -- by just how rude and ignorant we've become as a society. I spend more time on YouTube than I care to admit. But whenever I have an old song in my head, I go there and usually find it. That's what I like best about the site.

 
 

Italics & underlining

Well, I don't think you can do HTML when you comment. But if you could, I'm sure italics and underlining (sorry, don't know the code for that) would get you points. :) ↑ Grab this Headline Animator Join Xomba

 
 

YouTube Asses

I guess these are some of the reasons I've never really read the comments on YouTube videos. They mostly seem juvenile and unless they add something to my understanding of the video (99% of the time they don't), I find reading them is a waste of time. But to be honest, I don't spend much time watching YouTube in general.

YouTube Ettiquette Question

So typing in caps gets you points - what about italics? Is THIS IS GAY better than just plain THIS IS GAY? Or are italics just kinda, I don't know...gay? And what about underlining? I bet you get all sorts of points for underlining, especially if you're underlining something that just really hammers home how gay something is, like THIS IS GAY AND GAY REALLY SUCKS, MAN! I mean, come on, it's hard to argue with caps and underlining.
