Y is for Youtube

It might just be me, but I think the people who comment on Youtube can be very very cruel. I remember writing a comment once and getting completely slated by other people. I couldn't believe it! I therefore decided to never upload anything or comment again - it's just too intimidating. Instead I just use Youtube to watch movie trailers, listen to songs and watch my favourite Youtubers...

The first of which is Lindsey Stirling, a violinist with a twist. I've already spammed you enough with a few of her songs but I don't apologise because they are awesome.


The second is Kingsley, a ranting and raving reviewer of anything and everything. He's not afraid to speak his mind and is actually pretty fucking hilarious.


The third is Bubbz, a Northern Irish/Chinese hair and make-up guru. She's young and pretty and makes everything look so simple when it's definitely not! She also has the two cutest dogs I've ever seen.


The forth is ScottishDuck, a Scottish video game Let's Player. I started watching his vids as I didn't know how to pass a certain level in a game and I've been a fan ever since.


The fifh is Judy, who is another hair and make-up guru. She also makes everything look so simple and inspires me to try new things. I think her and her hubby are quite rich or at least get sponsored a lot but they are pretty funny and cute to watch.


The sixth is HISHE, a channel that remakes the endings of films or just random vids of Superman and Batman talking in a cafe. Either way, it's always hilarious!


So those are who I am subscribed to on Youtube, any suggestions to other great Youtubers?

P.s I was subscribed to Jenna Marbles and Ray William Johnson but stopped watching their videos as I started to find them incredibly annoying...

  3. YouTube trolls are the worst.

    I very rarely have any issues with them on my own videos due to having comment moderation turned on. I've found that if the trolls don't get their "instant gratification" of their comment automatically posting they tend to move along and leave me be.

    Took me two years to convince my Hubby to use that feature on his own YouTube page. He finally enabled it after a small number of trolls were giving him problems on one particular video of our old cat. They were accusing him of being abusive, when it very clearly is NOT the case. And it really upset him. Not only does he now have the comment moderation enabled, but other commenters have really been giving the trolls hell for their uncalled for remarks. So I guess there are some decent people out there on YouTube after all...

    1. Aww I'm so sorry! I can just imagine how awful that was for you and your husband! I'm glad that other people realised how ridiculous the trolls were being and stood up for you both.

      Hope you're okay and I'm glad it didn't put you off posting videos on youtube, especially when you enjoy it so much :)

  6. You Tube, Twitter, Yahoo, every news article you can possibly find...stupid internet trolls are everywhere. I guess there's a lot of angry people out there who need to insult/attack others (anonymously, of course) in order to feel better about themselves. Sad how much time anergy people waste on being cruel.

    1. Aww yeah I agree completely. Being anonymous on those sites gives internet trolls so much pleasure it's actually pathetic.

  7. YouTube trolling is in fact awful but I think some parts of it are just awesome! I still like Jenna Marbles- I think some videos can be quite annoying.

  8. Spamming Lindsey Stirling is okay because, as you said, she's awesome.
    Out of the others, I've only seen ScottishDuck's videos here and there.

  9. Just go onto any rock/metal music video, and you have this WAR going on, about either how rock/metal are the best, the band in question sucks, or vice versa respectively.

    1. Yes everyone on youtube thinks their opinion is the most important and better than everyone elses.

      People have serious issues with trying to understand and respect other people's opinions!

  10. I absolutely love HISHE. I never really comment on Youtube but even though there are a lot of douches on there, there is the occasional nice person. I mostly use it for listening to music.

    1. Unfortunately I think the douches outweigh the nice people. I mainly use it for the above youtubers and listening to music and watching movie trailers

      Delete
  11. I usually only go to you tube if I want to share music on my blog. I agree though, a lot of the comments are unnecessary

    1. I'm sure a lot of people do that, myself included!

  12. I rarely comment on YouTube for the same reasons. There are some very funny characters on there but some quite spiteful ones too. The joys of the internet!

    Happy blogging!

  13. Ahhh, thank you thank you, I keep seeing gifs of Kingsley on Tumblr, and I knew he must be a youtuber but I couldn't figure out the name! So thanks, now i'm gonna watch his videos :D

    I think jenna marbles is pretty annoying, couldn't bare watching more than a few of her videos. Also, she swears way too much.

    And yes, I don't comment at all, some people on there are such bullies.
