It saddens me that so many people in this new bubble can make a living off of simply talking about how things should be done and never actually DOing anything besides making “viral” videos.

What's worse is even horrible videos/songs/”funny stuff” can bring traffic either to enjoy or mock. Traffic that leads to egos being boosted and reputations being built. This is the part of the bubble that will undoubtedly burst. Eventually there will be enough actually good content to force the junk to land in less noticeable places.

Even as I type I am giving this video far more credit than it deserves.
