    Unhappy I think I'm going to just give up now

    It's not looking good fella's, not sure society can be saved at this point.

    I went to You Tube and while I wasn't logged in this is what was on the page. Look at this video and this persons channel. I didn't watch the video. I passed my cursor over the little bar that lets you move to any point in the vid and all I saw was him cleaning the shoes.
    Maybe I should start a YT channel of me reviewing my boogers. Might make me a millionaire with what I see people are watching on YT.

    24 MILLION VIEWS of a person cleaning a pair of sneakers. I don't know if there is any hope for these people. I understand now how hip-hop, EDM and what passes as pop music is so popular. If people actually watched NOT ONLY a guy clean a pair of shoes but all he does in all his video's is...CLEAN SHOES.




    Randy Quaid's character says it best right here.

    Don't give up, quitters never win.

    The level that society has devolved to, making money is like "catching fish in a barrel". (quote may be off, but it is original, and now trademarked).

    Maybe you could do a sausage-tube channel picking your dingle berries. Sorting them by size, shape, color, age and taste. Imagine how popular that would be. And if you do this, I want my cut, of the money of course.

    I know you have the skills for this. You just need the motivation, and bacon. Never under-estimate the power of bacon.

    Do one closer to what you like, clean an engine block and stick it in the oven to remove the sleeves, then see if you can outrun your wife................ that would be a great video

    Maybe I could get a high power microscope and record images of my jizz. I could give the individual sperm names and track their movement and how long they live. Capture their silly antics and interactions with each other, like people do with cats and dogs.

    Or maybe a channel on cleaning the gunk out from my fingernails after working on my truck. I could inspect what I find and try and identify the different types of grease and oil.

    Yea, but you really don't want be Mr. Onoda either. Japanese soldier who never surrendered after WW2. His former commanding officer had to go get him and relieve him of duty in 1974 before he would go home.

    I skimmed the video quite quickly, I do agree on the fact of "who has the time to watch videos like this front to back all day long." I do have to give some credit to the videomaker though.

    - He fixed an item that is normally a throwaway item. Reattached the soles, fixed the leather patches etc. In our throw-away socitety, its refreshing to see someone take the time to do that and have the skillset to do that. Basketball shoes aren't my cup of tea either, but you have to respect the level of work and craftmanship he put into them.

    - Hes making a TON of money doing it. I don't know the numbers off the top of my head (there are calculators online), but with that many views, that guy is making a lot of money. You have to respect that too IMO

    If it is, it is on YouTube... Well unless you are a conservative, then they ban you and delete your channel.
