Youtube car videos, what happened? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Impureclient · 12-28-2016, 06:12 PM

Anybody else getting overwhelmed with car videos that basically have some rich d-bag guy talking the whole time about how he hates his new Ferrari's color
or how he bought his McLaren because of the scissor doors?
The amazing part is all these videos are being viewed enough for them to continue to make these videos. The "recommended for you" videos have me wondering
if I am getting contact douchiness just by them thinking I would like to watch the video? Sometimes I'll be watching for a minute and then realize "what am I doing?!"
I know I'm not forced to click them but if there was a option to delete certain uploaders, that would really help since there are so many. I'll click since it might sound interesting
then I quickly see this kid whose parents afford him the cash to buy expensive exotics and then brag about in online does not deserve any attention more than his parents give him.

How did this become a thing?

Hard to say. Can you tell the difference between it and your regular douchiness?

That's probably it. The videos of people playing video games so you can watch them has me scratching my head too.

Mr.ac · 12-28-2016, 07:25 PM

eh, yeah i been seeing those vids, but i in turn rate them down and also put them as not interesting or what ever options youtube had so it doesn't come up in the "recommend" list.

No different than most videos I have watched about the Twins. Half the people that do videos talk like these things go for Ferrari prices. Douchiness knows no financial boundaries.

Ultramaroon · 12-28-2016, 10:11 PM

Right? It's all a matter of how we manage it. The struggle is real.

What i don't understand is how the hell they get so many views from a random gaming video.
If you look at some of the random videos they have a million plus views.
its mind bottling.

what is worse is that they get paid to do this crap and then some how afford a gt-r or a stingray while the real hard working people can't afford crap. i don't see a nurse driving around in a stingray but the clown saying pewwwdeepiiieee can afford a lambo.that is some
