Call of Doody

I've been watching entirely too many YouTube videos. It's a strange culture, that YouTube. It doesn't translate well to regular television. Regular television requires some kind of commentary, like an America's Funniest Home Videos set and funny-voiced dubbing dude complete with live studio audience and winners of prizes. YouTube doesn't need that. You just watch as the pelican eats the duck and you're done with that video. There might be some dude talking in the video, but it's probably in a language you don't understand.

I even posted a little video tutorial on YouTube with over a thousand views. I feel special and I keep getting thanked. Whenever you figure something out, you should tell everyone via YouTube. It really boosts the spirits when you've contributed to society.
