Does anyone ever stick around for a discussion on YouTube though? I know I don't...but then I don't even use it often.
I don't think the site lends itself to discussion...more of a post-and-run sort of thing. There's no topic to return to...just the video...and if you had issues with the video you wouldn't be returning...
I wondered about that. I see comments that'll say one thing...then a comment that responds to it...and that's about it. I haven't been around there enough to find any real discussion occur...
But I still have to believe that the post-and-run method is what a large majority of the posters must abide by. It isn't a discussion board, after all...at least, not primarily...
No time for jokes, Batgirl.

Followed inevitably by something along the lines of:

It's satirical as it is. That's the whole point.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - YouTube has the stupidest collective community on the entire internet.

Yes, clearly someone was losing huge amounts of money on an obscure 1960s PIF. Yes.

Actually, what worries me about YouTube is just how reactionary a lot of the comments are on there.
Considering the age of most YouTube commenters, that's just worrying.
