Picking the "Virus" out of Viral Videos

On a good day like this when I should be studying and working my ass off for the assessment/interview I'm due to have tomorrow, stupid inspiration strikes me in the face like a basement lightbulb, and I have no choice but to sit down and type till my fingers cry boo ._.



I'm sorry, that was a lot more disturbing than I had initially intended ._. Now you are scarred. Sue me.

. . .

jk, I'll just probably do something along the lines of


...resulting in a little something like this

Wonder where the mouse ran off to...? o.O

I've got a few little things thats compressing against the Pulmonary artery of my heart, thereby restricting adequate bloodflow to my lungs and making life very difficult. So now I'll pass it all to you.

Firstly, to the dude living in the house across from our back garden: fix the flashing porch light please. You're doing little service to saving our earth's energy and you're killing your neighbour's eyelids. On a second thought, what bloody lightbulb are you using that no thick black curtain can block, eh ? ">.>

I also hate the fact that when you tell somebody you're not talking to them you consequently compose irony and self-contradiction because you talked to them when you're not suppose to talk to them ._. Just did a big fat Justin Bieber there.

and the subsequent parodies, including this one by Ryan Higa (nigahiga)

YouTube: Daily Life of Rustin Hieber



Even though I liked Beaver's song here I still had to make fun of it. That just shows how much my mood sparkles today ._.
Sorry Beaver. I don't love him, but I actually don't hate him. I mean.....what's there to hate ? Ok I'm no big fan of his music, and whilst the fact you get that kinda jazz blasted out of every household sporting teeny boppers' windows isn't exactly the antidote to a desperate writer's block, I don't wanna go do something violent to the kid. Like, flick toothpicks at him or something. He's only singing teeny bopper music, not coming out to insult anyone in particular.....not on purpose, anyway. If you wanna go wayyyy around the block and say he's a disgrace to Pop Culture, I highly recommend you watch Rebecca Black's Friday. Again. Then click replay. It's starting to get old, but the criticisms still leak. I think everyone just couldn't get over how crappy it is.....Her voice isn't bad I guess.....not your average drunken cow chirping-frog-bark you hear on a clear skied Saturday night, but the song the song the song......I hope that slaps some reality into our pop music producers and make better music. My only fear is that this will take a bit of a turn and everyone will be like, "Hey that Rebecca one made crappy music and she's famous for it, let's make even crappier music and make even more !!!^^v"

No I am not a worst case scenario person ._."

I'm also really liking YouTube's TheFineBros' Kids Reactions to Viral Videos playlist. Typical example (yep, you guessed it) could be:

YouTube: KIDS REACT to Rebecca Black - Friday




It was pretty damn interesting to watch how age and sex and cultural backgrounds of kids could greatly influence their outlook and varying perspectives towards the same video. It was also cool to see how one measely random video which you could've watched and easily brushed off in the past, have within minutes entered a whirlwind of unsuspected fame worldwide through the Web. Niice. Makes no odds for me. Just feel bad for the brown people.

Here, I'm not talking about colour in terms of race. In Cantonese, the people who are famous (or infamous) are labelled "red", and the celebs that aren't well known at all are labelled "black". Black can also symbolise unluckiness.....which is pretty much what our poor black-labelled celebs suffer from too. So if you have an awful lot of time in your hands, get out your paints and paintbrushes and mix red and black together and whadya know, you got yourself a "brown", those who are stuck in the middle of the elevator. Ok, in fairness, some are clearly "not the material" even at first glance, nomatter how hard they try. But there are those who put out a hell loada effort, a cart load of time, yet their unknown talent have been masked by the morepopular, possibly branded idols of the same business, never mind about battling up against cats playing pianos, baby biting fingers, and talking food. We all know someone in the Brown Zone, especially on YouTube...note to self to give thumbsup to the next 5-10 Brown videos I like on the site for the sake of making my stay on YouTube worthwhile ._. yeahh. After study.

Oh, one more rant. My hours of laziness spent on my bed in my chambre upstairs on the right turn in the house to the east of Ireland within the same planet in which you are currently in, I have developed a lopsided head ._. I mean : |
Then somehow across the Atlantic Ocean, a friend of mine must've....ehm, felt my frustrated brain signals and decided to post this up on facebook:

Hatsune Miku - Hatsune Miku's Head Exercises (初音ミクの あたまのたいそう)


Then I was like, ok, got nothing to lose, might as well try it....and y'know what ? After about half an hour, I got a little less, eh, lopsided and my brain got happy ^^ so this is dedicated to you, hope you like it !

Enjoy
Have fun
Live long and Prosper !
