This post is going to be a shift from what I usually post on my blog. It’s just a rant, so feel free to ignore it.

We’ve all seen those videos that have a really exciting title, but when we click on the link our ears are berated by some crappy techno music (and I like good techno music, so don’t get me wrong by thinking that I think all techno is crappy), and we sit through a 3 minute video that would make the word mundane a compliment.

Here’s a good example. Granted, it’s a professionally made video, and it has some shiny lights in it, but at it’s core, it’s an unboxing video. PLEASE STOP THE UNBOXING VIDEOS! Tell us what’s inside and move on.

A crappy video is a crappy video. Period. Sure, you could do some editing to make it more exciting. You could do a lot of things to make the video more exciting, but adding dubstep does not an exciting video make. Have some creativity. Sure, maybe you’re interested in something. Maybe other people are too, but that doesn’t make you creative. That doesn’t mean you have any idea as to how to make an interesting video. Words of advice: If you wouldn’t watch the video without the music, then it’s probably not worth posting.

I leave you with a gem of a video. Enjoy!

EDIT

Just wanted to end on a good note, so here is something that I think everyone should see, because cats are amazing!
