I laugh at people when they get chlamydia. That's the same, right?

I just found out there's a company called
Freeport-McMoRan and that someone I know who can barely hold a chair down works there. LoL!

Best I can tell it’s closer to laughing at people with Syphilis.

But I’ll allow it.

I know most reaction videos on youtube are trash, but it's nice when you find a channel you like and can run through it.

Every reaction channel runs through the same plot line. It's music no one has ever heard of, then Ghost Love Score, then a handful of other Nightwish songs, Sancta Terra, Kingdom, Sleepless Nights, a bunch of Jinjer and Unleash the Archers, Sober, etc. On one hand I like being able to get different takes on the same thing, but on the other hand every time it happens it gets harder to believe that the person knows reaction videos are popular, and also hasn't heard Ghost Love Score. I think I like that more than I hate it, but as it goes on I'm less sure.

I also don't know how reaction channels get traction. How do you get from being a nobody with 0 videos and 0 views to hundreds of thousands of views? Maybe that's why the Ghost Love Score formula exists.

OK, I need some help here. Is Ghost Love Score some kind of YT music-reaction meme now? As a Nightwish fan from back in the Tarja days that's pretty bonkers to me.

[ThePenIsMightier]

I don't like this, at all!
Reaction Videos are right up there with Unboxing Videos and by "right up there" I mean so far at the bottom of the barrel that they're under the barrel.
Who hijacked SKR's account??!

Every reaction channel will feature it at some point. Floor Jansen herself has reacted to it. Pick any channel, sort their videos chronologically, Ghost Love Score will be near the start. The Poet and the Pendulum won't be too far after that.

My thought on it is, you only get to experience a song the first time once. So it's neat to kind of get to do it again through someone else. I like the ones where the person talks about techniques that the singer or band or whatever is using. Whether or not they ever know what they're talking about, I don't know, but sometimes they pick up on things that I didn't even notice.

Been missing Top Gear UK for the longest time, since the Clarkson, May, and Hammond days. (Haven't watched a single episode since they left) just got cable at the new place, didn't know we had Amazon prime included in it, been binge watching Grand Tour everyday, loving it.

Stupid small thing, but it gives me joy.

I like to restore old vintage bicycles. I don't know just adore turning these into brilliantly restored, good as new. My fiance and I hates all the bikes I've been buying. But it's amazing to turn these into better then new condition.

This guy was a 1979 supercycle gran sport, from Canadian tire no less. Frame was made in England, shifters and cables from Japan, wheels were made in France. I love the European influence on these. I love restoring these and making them shine like new. Fun riding these. The responses these get is amazing. Makes my heart glow to see the attention these get, and what they deserve.
I just adore restoring these bikes. It's hard as I have too many in the mix. I've built bikes for her and I, and my mother in law. Just love bringing bikes from the 60's and 70's (and older) back to life today

Motor trend on demand has all seasons of top gear from the beginning. Only like $6/mo or something.

When someone I should probably have on my ignore list quotes someone on my ignore list and it's funny.

I like the glug glug glug that a bottle of whiskey makes the first glass you pour out of it.

Glug glug glug? Fuck man, you drinking out of a milk glass?

At least you pour it out of the whiskey bottle and not a plastic water bottle.

That's when it glugs. "I like the glug glug glug that a bottle of whiskey makes," I said. If I meant I like the sound it makes in the glass, that's what I would have said.

It brings me joy when burn attempts really fizzle out.

He's saying "Holy shit, how big a drink you pouring to make the bottle go glug?!" because clearly he drinks white wine spritzers.
