The Youtube Montage Post

Every now and then I indulge in the madness of Youtube.  I can say, right now, that whoever came up with the idea for that side bar is rolling in the dough as we speak.  Yep, rolling in it.  All you have to do is look up a video, and then you'll see something on the side that looks interesting.  Then, suddenly it's two hours later.  You've been sucked in!

I fall victim to this occasionally, so I have a great collection of my favorite videos.  That, my friends, is what today's post is all about!

This one is a video I got hooked onto recently from a friend I made in my digital foundations class.  It's called Thought of You, and it was animated by Ryan Woodward.  I posted it on facebook earlier this week, but I had to share it again.  It's sooooooooo beautiful.  The best way to view it is in full screen, 720p.  It will blow your socks off.  You won't be able to find them.  Stock up on some socks before you watch it.





So, last semester I got hooked on Portlandia after Caroline told me about it.  This one is a particular favorite because we watched it in one of my art classes a few weeks ago.  It might be hilarious, but it's also ridiculously true....which is kind of sad I think.





I don't know why, but I got into The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, which is a youtube series that started last April and ended yesterday.  It's basically Pride and Prejudice in 2012, if Elizabeth had a video diary.  I found it by accident one day, in January, but I caught up and for the past three months I've been watching every Monday and Thursday when the new ones came out.





How it Should Have Ended is a really good channel I stumbled across after watching one of their videos.  It's basically a bunch of animated shorts of how popular movies should have ended.  The first one I ever watched was How Tangled Should Have Ended.




Their Superhero Cafe shorts are good too.





The dance walking always amuses me.





And then, of course, there's Kid President.  Someone should get me a shirt that says, "Not cool, Robert Frost!"





On a side note, this guy is my Spanish teacher.  He can dance.





And, then, there's Cooking With Arpakasso!  A stuffed alpaca who cooks and has that smooth voice should get everyone's views.





And finally, BurdFu!  My friend Adam makes these hilarious videos. Watch them all...or else.

This is the newest one.




But this one is my favorite.





I'm addicted people.

    1. Well, I really couldn't do a Youtube post without including your videos. They're way too good to leave out.
