Every goddamn tutorial video… Congrats. You’ve just pissed me off with you droning on and on.
“Hey guys, welcome back to Dipshit McGillicuddy’s. Today we’re going to be, uh, doing this simple, uh, tutorial. All you gotta do is use these links <shows notepad on screen> and follow, us, these instructions. Sometimes I get confused on this and not sure what to d— <skips 3 minutes in> And thats when my father decided to tell me that he once grabbed JD Salinger’s a— <6 more minutes in> I think it went wrong when I snitched on Big— <Skip another 2 minutes in> And thats how you do it.”
I will sacrifice your first born.
The only way I can do any videos at this point is 2x speed. Unless they have a strong accent then 1.5x speed. Even with meds.
Something about it being 2x speed makes me actually able to focus on it. Just can’t do it otherwise.
I just want to Ctrl+f some keywords in the text to find what I need, not listen to ten years of rambling back story
For transcripts of YouTube videos (where available): If on mobile browser, switch to desktop mode. Press “show more” under description, then “more” under the longer description, then scroll down to transcript and press “show transcript”, then scroll again for the actual transcript. (It’s on display in the bottom drawer of a locked filling cabinet stored in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard’.)
And yeah, ugh!
I hate online recipes for this reason.
They’re all prefaced with some bullshit
Tutorials are videos because Youtube makes people a lot more money than a text website.
Online recipes have an entire fucking story glued on because without the story, the instructions aren’t copyrightable.
It’s profit motive all the way down.
It’s profit motive all the way down.
Because we’re all swimming in debt and cash strapped. Now, dance monkey, dance.
