Blandness
American Culture once romanticized The Cowboy.
Now it romanticizes quick, idiotic clips on YouTube, for the Lowest Common Denominator of Audience. A Whiney 6 Year Old, whose life is fucked up & he needs his "Meds", the way a crack whore needs her smokable Cocaine. And people laugh at this, which tells me a lot about the World of the Lowest Common Denominator. Of course, their are people whose attention span is only 3 Minutes or less, which is WHY YouTube is perfect for mindless "Entertainment."
I have to admit that despite his coarseness of humor, Shane Dawson may just be the epitome of Satire on YouTube.
He just wails into shows of mindlessness, like "Fred" & Popular Culture.
However, my favorite Commenter of all things cultural on YouTube(& Dailymotion, BTW), is Canadian. The Redoubtable Robert Rex Raphael Murphy, known as Rex Murphy, elegantly with Snark, rips into what is wrong in Society("It's Rape, but it is not Rape-Rape", as he ripped into Whoopi Goldberg on "The View", in regards to Roman Polanski, facing American Justice, because of his act of statutory rape with a 13 Year Old Girl, 30 Years Ago). Describing Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlescionni's Dalliances with "Over Priced, Underage Horizontals", made Rex a favorite of mine, in the Snark Department.
John Kingman & Clara Peterson, addressed a problem with Counterfeiters in producing "Hustlas", a Television Pilot, & did so with humor & a touch of "X Files" thrown in. This wasn't good enough for various television people, who believe that ONLY the LCD(Lowest Common Denominator) must be served.
"I Want My Meds", sounds sadly like the "New Entertainment." It SUCKS!
