As a mids white male myself I know I am not her audience. But as a mids white male it's sometimes hard to think of something not made for me so I get your issue here. Oct 27, There's stuff on youtube besides old wrestling matches and speedruns? Bobo Dakes said:. No, why are you trying to force this? For many YouTube channels it's as simple as "I don't get it", "this isn't for me", or "this is terrible". Robin Restless Insomniac Member.
Oct 25, 3, I don't know dude you kind of defeat your own point in the first sentence. It's not for you, the stuff on like, the Disney Channel probably isn't for you either but that's kind of presumed, isn't it? MinerArcaniner Member.

Dec 4, 2, You know what I don't get? That guy with the pink body suit or something that people find funny because of disgusting and uncomprehensible hijinks. MiHighGator Member. Nov 8, 1, She had a couple really popular videos about 8 years ago. Those got a few sensible chuckles out of me. I'm surprised that she is still around on YouTube.
F34R Member. Oct 27, 8, The early stuff was ok, but not so much since. Fiction Fanthropologist Member. Oct 25, 4, Elf Tower, New Mexico. I only watch her pubg stuff, which can be hilarious. GJ Member. Oct 25, 7, The Netherlands. I used to watch her videos Not so much anymore, I'm afraid Oct 25, 67, Man that is a throwback name. Shirosaki Avenger. I still remember an old video of her about adulting. That one was actually pretty funny and relatable at the time.
Oct 25, 14, IStandWithTaylor. There's a trend I've noticed of "Old person doesn't want to admit they're old, tries to get into young people stuff, and when it occasionally doesn't work blames the young-people-stuff for being bad in the first place".

I don't see anything wrong with her material I guess but I'm not her intended audience either. But a lot of popular things really aren't up my avenue so nothing new. GayAnimeDad Member. Feb 13, 3, Japan. Sounds like a porn star name imo. She was one of the first big youtubers.
People copied her formula and improved. I'm just going to stop, for now or forever. I don't know. Marbles specifically apologized for a video in which she impersonated Nicki Minaj. She continued, "All that matters is that people were offended and it hurt them and for that I'm so unbelievably sorry.
This isn't OK and it hasn't existed on the Internet for a long time because it's not OK and I haven't done anything remotely like that because I heard people say, 'This is blackface. I ask for two reasons. One is pure fascination: How can someone do this for a living and be so bad at it? Two: YouTube has begun describing its viewers as Generation C —could it be that Generation C is just dumb or has low standards?
My answer is simple: Behind it all is the same old pageview problem we talked about in this column for the last year. When content is percent advertising supported and there is no paid subscription component, the quality of the content never rises above mediocre. The content may be cute, it may be controversial, it may generate lots of clicks but it will rarely, if ever, be good.
What a ripoff. If they are charging the reader for access to the content, they knew it must be good. From who or how is irrelevant. Their only real customers are advertising networks whose demand is simply: volume, volume, volume. Same, it appears, goes for video. In other words, Generation C and the rest of the watching public are being shortchanged because their entertainers are motivated by bad incentives. Professional YouTubers measure themselves by view count. The game—and the business—is to get as many views as possible for the channel and that means churning out videos in a low cost, high return model.
If the video gets a lot of clicks, it must be good. It is profitable because it generated many ad impressions. And there are lots of ways to get those clicks—gimmicks, low brow content, click-baity headlines, thumbnail bait, riding the Google wave, etc.
